all files in the upload directory need to be uploaded in you forum root directory...in other words...ftp in (i use smart FTP) and load all the file from the upload directory for vbindex into your forum directory....or wherever you want it displayed...then upload all the files that are in the vbindex admincp directory to your admincp directory....hope thats what you were askin for!

Hello everybody, I have two questions I would like to ask about vBindex RC5.

1: Is is possible to make it so it creates it's own main templates directory that stores all the sub templates in it during the installation process. You know, like how the FORUM HOME directory stores all the forum home templates in it. When you look at the template structure in your admin CP.

2: Also when you view your "who is online" and were section on your forum. If a person is on the vbindex page. It displays them as being in an un-known location. Rather than saying there on the vbindex page viewing it.

By the way I think vBindex is great and the best portal out there. But I would like to see these two little things put right to polish the product off. If anybody can help out with these two things I would be grateful!

Were can I download extra blocks (moduals) for this?

Thanks for the mod! Got it installed and working (apparently) even though it was my first ever mod install. Now if I could just find a skin I like...

If you want to add a "Add To Favourates" block to your vBindex site. Just replace the code in one of your custom blocks with this. I just converted this over from CMS to vBindex.

I've also converted the Random Images Block also over to vBindex and added a text description with each image which is displayed. If anybody is interested in that also which can be viewed on my site. Give us a shout here!

PHP Code:
<table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" border="0" class="tborder" width="100%">
    <
tr>
        <
td>
            <
table cellpadding="$stylevar[cellpadding]cellspacing="$stylevar[cellspacing]border="0" width="100%">
                <
thead>
                <
tr>
                    <
td class="tcat" style="text-align: center">
                        <
a style="float:$stylevar[right]href="#top" onclick="return toggle_collapse('vbindex_customblock$box')"><img id="collapseimg_vbindex_customblock$boxsrc="$stylevar[imgdir_button]/collapse_tcat$collapseimg_vbindex_customblock.gif" alt="" border="0" /></a>
                        <
strong>Bookmark Site</strong>
                    </
td>
                </
tr>
                </
thead>
                <
tbody id="collapseobj_vbindex_customblock$boxstyle="$collapseobj_vbindex_customblock">
                <
tr>
                    <
td class="alt1">
                        <
div class="smallfont"><center
<
a href="#" onclick="if (window.sidebar) { window.sidebar.addPanel('$vboptions[hometitle]', '$vboptions[homeurl]',''); } else if( document.all ) { window.external.AddFavorite( '$vboptions[homeurl]', '$vboptions[hometitle]'); } else if( window.opera && window.print ) { return true; }">Add To Favourites</a
</
center></div>
                    </
td>
                </
tr>
                </

            </

        </

    </

</

Is there a way to test the functionality of this hack without going live? Can the portal be turned on and off?

Open this vbindex teplate: vbindex_centerthreadbit

Look for this line near the bottom of the template.
PHP Code:
[bburl]/showthread.core?$session[sessionurl
replace place it with this:
PHP Code:
[bburl]/showthread.php?$session[sessionurl
The error in the code is the "core?" code. It should say "php?"

----------------------------

Open this vbulletin default template: calendar_smallmonth_day

Search for:
PHP Code:
<span class="smallfont"><a href="calendar.core?$session 
replace it with this:
PHP Code:
<span class="smallfont"><a href="calendar.php?$session 
The error in the code is the "core?" code. It should say "php?"

Yes, the Portal page gets it's permissions from the forum settings. So if you setup you forum so Guest cannot view the board for example, the same settings will apply to you portal page.
