Basically what I'm trying to do is use the ProPortal blocks in the sidebar of my index page, however I haven't been very successful with what I do know about HTML.
Could someone enlighten me on how to do this? It would be much appreciated
It might not work unless you edit your index.php file as well. Its because the code/variables it is using on Portal.php page is not evaluating its templates o any other file.

Thanks, not sure how to go about that however. Can you provide a guide or something to help? It would be much appreciated.
Please specify what things you want to show on index ? e.g. Latest Threads, Announcements, any thing else.

The UserCP block and the latest threads block.
Yakdaram. Did you make any code for this?
I found this, but I did not get it to work
PHP Code:

Did make a new one, uploaded it to root,
but I did not get it working.
