vBonjour - Portal System Details »» | |||||||||||||||||||||||||
vBonjour Easy Customizable Portal System Brought to you by www.peterska2.co.uk Welcome to the launch of vBonjour. This is the base package which is required for all installations of this system. What is vBonjour? vBonjour is an alternative to vBAdvanced. It is an easy to install, modular portal system designed as a gateway to your site. Why vBonjour? This is pretty simple really. As the front page is the first thing that your visitors see, it is a welcome page. The first few names that were thought of were either very boring, or far too long winded and not at all catchy. This is a base package. What is included? The base package includes a news feature from up to two forums. The news from the first forum will be displayed first, followed by the news from the second forum. It also includes the left and right columns which can be activated or deactivated via some simple settings in the ACP. These columns can be customised without using any of the Add On Modules, or Add On Modules can be installed to expand on the functionality. Why is it so modular? vBonjour is extremely modular to allow for maximum customization of the page. The idea is to make it as easy as possible to install the items that you want to have included, and not have anything which you would be simply turning off. By using a modular method it means that every site can easily achieve their own custom portal without having to know any coding. I want to add something that isn't already included. How do I go about this? vBonjour makes use of the plugin system and includes it's own hooks. This allows easy devlopment of additional Add Ons and maximum flexability. What about the ACP? Is it really complicated? Unlike other systems, almost all the settings for vBonjour are collected in one setting group in the vBOptions. Because you only install what you want to use, you don't need to have lots of settings. Anything which does not use settings in the Portal settings group is highlighted in the documentation for that Add On. Ok, so where are the screen shots? Why have screen shots when you can have a live demo? The demo is available at www.peterska2.co.uk What versions of vBulletin does vBonjour work with? vBonjour will work with vBulletin 3.6.0 and above. Support for sites running versions earlier than 3.6.0 will not be given. Contributers to the base system: [name]christianb[/name] I hope that you like this system. Please remember to mark it as installed to recieve notification of updates and support. Support will only be provided to those who have clicked install. Show Your Support

My one question..
Does it allow for more then one page with each page using different news forums? That's the big bonus of vbadvanced to me, and if your product could do similiar I would definately give it a go |

1. Really need the possibility to enter different Boxes (more then in your Addon for 2 custom Contents) with own HTML Content from the AdminCP like it is possible at vBa.
2. Sure a RSS Feedsystem for external Feeds is a must have. Look here for a Example : Customizable RSS feed module 3. And can i move the Boxes from AdminCp wherever i like (left, center, right)? |

someone asked me if i could help them understand how to install this portal... i am no coder... and peterska2 is best to ask for assistance, but... i did supply some instructions for the person who asked... and thought i would share them....
Step #1 - edit your portal.php file it should look something like this..... /home/this is your root folder name/public_html/' Step#2 change the name of the portal.php to index.php Step#3 change the name of your index.php (on the server-side) (your forum index.php, to forum.php) step#4 go to forum home options in your admincp and change the index to forum step#5 go to your admincp plugins and products /manage products and upload your xml file that is in your portal directory after you do this... your hack is installed... refresh your screen and look under your VBulletin Options for portal. set up which forum will be your news for the portal.... and the other stuff... the work starts now....... in your styles and templates look for the portal templates you primarily want to work with the left and right columns.... in the addons that come with portal hack are instructions.. read them... you are looking for code snippets that have $who_has_posted this code in it... each addon will have an instructions document.. and in that document you will find the code to paste.... either in your left or right column.. i suggest as you are pasting the snippets... dont try to put a <br> after a snippet just... $who_has_posted $who_has_posted $who_has_posted stack the different snippets this way and all will be well... good luck.. im going to bed!! |

There should be something in the arcade installation instructions that for adding to the portal. Offhand I'm not sure what it is.

According to the instructions, this code needs to be put in the index.php page right after the <?php
Code:
// ibProArcade modification if($_POST['module'] == "pnFlashGames"){ $_GET[act] = "Arcade"; $_GET['module'] = "arcade"; } if($_POST['func'] == "storeScore"){ $_GET['do'] = "pnFStoreScore"; } if($_POST['func'] == "saveGame"){ $_GET['do'] = "pnFSaveGame"; } if($_POST['func'] == "loadGame"){ $_GET['do'] = "pnFLoadGame"; } $act = $_GET[act]; $showuser= $_GET[showuser]; if($act == "Arcade") { include "arcade.php"; exit(); } if(!empty($showuser) && $showuser >= 1) { $u = $showuser; $_GET[u] = $showuser; include "member.php"; exit(); } // end of ibProArcade modification |
