A Few Questions
« on: March 02, 2010, 11:54:02 am »
My first question is how do you upload ranks for membergroups? I've tried to upload them but it won't work.

My second question is how do you add the chatbox to the forum? I've been trying to figure it out but it only uploads to the portal if I create a new block.

My final question is how to you link a forum thread with the news in the portal? Such as if I posted in a thread called "Forum News" it would also appear on the portal news.


Thank you. :)

1. What do you mean? Rank images? Does www.smfnew.com/upload work?

2. First, go into your admin cPanel. Then, under the "SimplePortal" cetegory, select "Shoutbox" then click "Add shoutbox" and change the settings if you wish. Once you've made your shoutbox, under the "SimplePortal" category, click on "blocks" then "add block" and a list of types of blocks should be selectable, you need to select "shoutbox" and finish adding the block. Again, change the settings if you wish, just make sure the shoutbox displayed is the one you made earlier. Hope this helped

3. In your admin cPanel, under the "SimplePortal" section, click on "articles" then "add article" and select the topics you wish to have shown in the portal.

Hope I helped, if you have any questions about my suggestions, please ask them.

1. Yes it won't work.

2. I still can't seem to get the chat box to appear on the forum. Are there certain themes that don't allow you to add a chat box? (Currently using DarkBreak)

3. Thank you.
