Some Queries

[BlueBear]

I've got a few, queries, that need sorting.


1)

I've got the plugin 'MyShoutbox' it's activated and the settings seem fine, but it doesn't come up on my forum.

2) How do I make a portal? And also how would I add HTML blocks to it?


3) I've got the plugin 'Create forum plugins' and 'IconForums, or Forumsicon' anyway, whenever I try to add an image it says it's incorrect, Idk why, let me see what it says each time..


ForumsIcons says - Error al cargar el icono, Intentalo de nuevo (And some PHP error just before it)

Custom Forum Icons - PHP error, but then when I check my forum it's a box with a red X in the corner. [/u]

1) Open index template and find {$myshoutbox} somewhere. If its not then add it to just above the {$forums} variable.

2) Portal is already included in MyBB by default, http://yourdomain.com/portal.php --- You've to edit portal template in order to include Tables.

3) Disable that plugin, you can use a simple guide like this: http://community.mybb.com/thread-92128.html to add Forum icons to each forum/subforum.

I went into

Templates > My theme > Index > Couldn't find {$myshoutbox} so added it above {$forums} but still doesn't come up on forum.

Your guide was too complicated for a newcommer like myself.

Also, I've got another problem; I am using the page manager plugin, and I added a Chat page for a chatbox, with the Xat HTML code in it, but why wont it come up as a page on my forum at the top, next to home, and help, and memberlist, etc..

You've to add this link manually:

Go to: Admin CP > Templates > Your theme's templates > Header templates > header > and find;

</ul>

and add the following code just before that,

<li><a href="URL_TO_YOUR_LINK" title="Chat" alt="Chat">Chat</a></li>

[BlueBear]

<a name="top" id="top"></a><div id="header">		{$welcomeblock}		<div id="content">			{$pm_notice}			{$bannedwarning}			{$bbclosedwarning}			{$unreadreports}			{$pending_joinrequests}			<navigation>			{$board_messages}			<br />

That's all that's in my Header

<a name="top" id="top"></a><div id="header"> {$welcomeblock} <div id="content"> {$pm_notice} {$bannedwarning} {$bbclosedwarning} {$unreadreports} {$pending_joinrequests} <navigation> {$board_messages} <br />

EDIT


It worked, I put this in

<li><ahref="http://runefetish.net/misc.php?page=Chat"title="Chat"alt="Chat">Chat</a></li>

It comes up just about my tabs, but the link is unclickable, and I've cheked my url, it works.

[Yaldaram]

Can you please provide me your forum's link ?

[BlueBear]

www.runefetish.net

It's at the top now, RIGHT at the top.

[Alan S.]

Add it as Yaldaram stated above but in the header_welcomeblock_member template.

The code should be:

<li><a href="http://runefetish.net/misc.php?page=Chat" title="Chat">Chat</a></li>

Don't delete the spaces.

AJs, that's perfect, thank you!

[BlueBear]

Hey, this is mainly to AJS, but if anybody else can help, that's cool.


AJS - You helped me add them pages in the last tab, and thanks alot for that. Really helped, however, the pages that I make the colour of the writing that people see to click to go to that page, kind of blends in with my forum.

Is it possible to change the colour?

This is the PHP in my Header_welcome_member

<li><a href="http://runefetish.net/misc.php?page=Chat" title="Chat" alt="Chat">Chat</a></li>

Get a first hand view here; www.runefetish.net

You can see it doesn't blend in, I'd like to change the colour to RED or WHITE
