ok lets asume your file is in the same folder as config.asp (root forum folder)
<!--#include file="blah.asp"-->
If on the other hand it is within a folder INSIDE the forum root
<!--#include file="folder/blah.asp"-->
follow? all files that will be used in the forums use the location of config.asp as a reference and you'll be just fine. |

sir @TOMIC,
I'm using sir D3MON's site integrator (where open columns and rows can be reserved for other things; top, bottom, left and right) and I was wondering... what code should I insert on the right column (inc_site_right.asp) to get the look of your "New Posts" column in SkepticFriends.org (excellent, excellent site, btw)?
Should I even post this question here or to the Site Integration thread already opened?
'greatly appreciate the input!

Well, I do not use the site integrator and my SFN site is, for now, still running 3.1R4 so any specific code would not work for you. However, in the Content Display ZIP there is a file called the contentdisplay_tester.asp and you could easily use that to make a page look like anything you want because I stipped out everyting except for the necessary includes. I even took that file outside the forum and it still worked great. Think of it as an empty canvas on which you may paint any HTML you desire. I also plan to release a homepage template so you or anyone else can easily set something snazzy up out of forum content but the trick is just to use content.asp in different spots, using different modes, going to different pages and connecting to different forums(news,articles etc). It should be pretty esasy. I will get some sort of readme out there on the specifics but it's all just imaginative use of content.asp.

There appears to be an incompatibility between this and the the header cell image MOD which uses strHeadCellColor & strCategoryCellColor. The table & HR tag is causing the image to tile down because of strHeadCellColor being used.

This MOD was designed to work with my own Header cell image MOD(which also includes a Category cell image. If the image is being placed in the TR tag you bet there are going to be issues.

Have you released your version of the Header cell image MOD?

Trouble with content display? Did you make the change to getCurrentIcon function so that it will display icons outside the forum?

*whooooooshhh!*
I think I'm gonna go full "@tomic!!!" (as in ballistic)
sir @TOMIC,
I've got "Content Display" loaded onto my site. If I want just the most recent topics (trying to imitate the right side of SFN) posted onto my site, what would be the right "displaycontent" combination codes that are needed to be placed in my .asp file?
'preciate the input, sir!

0, 0, 2, 3, 0, 6, 130, 50, 5, 1, 2, 1, "Newest Posts", "40%", "topic.asp"
This should do it. The first 2 parameters select everything from all forums, open or closed Display Mode = 3, Order By Last Topic, selects 6 most recent MSG Icons Width = 40%, links go to topic.asp
That should get it pretty close but the one you are looking at is for 3.1R4 so your actual mileage may vary.

No it's OK, here.
You have commented out inc_header.asp and you are going to need it.
You also selected to have it not display hidden or private forums but as I said in the first post in this topic, that does not work. All topics will be displayed no matter what.
Try not having it look for hot/new/special too.
If it's not that I think one of the other MODs you added recently is causing problems because I am using this with message icons just fine.
