Easy one
Look at the pic of CMS Configuration in your earlier post:
'Items Displayed in left nav' and 'Items Displayed in right nav' should be numbers, put 5 in both for instance.
My fault, should've had some error handling there, i'll make a note of it |

No probs 
If you are using the portal as your homepage you may also want to do the following:-
go to 'Main Forum Configuration' in admin options
set 'Home URL' to 'portal.asp'
This will result in the link 'Home' in the navigation going to portal.asp rather than default.asp |

David,
Just did that as you suggestd - that changes the "Home" link on the upper right hand menu. Works out great!
I look forward to more on this mod. I may have a few suggestions that you are already thinking of but will jot them down and send your way for youer perusal.
Thanks again!

zip updated:
2 changes
portal.asp - error trapping
admin_config_cms.asp - form validation
Not bugs as such but if you have already implemented this you may aswell replace the above files, will avoid confusion if I use line numbers for additions to the mod |

Hi David,
Your Portal mod works well for me and I'm looking forward to the next release from you.
BTW, if I wish to include the Member Spotlight mod on the right side just above the Search Function, may I know how to include that in at the portal.asp?
Where and how should I insert this;
<!--#INCLUDE FILE="member_spotlight.asp" -->
Sorry, I really know nothing about asp and hope you can help. Thank you very much.

turn off 'Show Friendly HTTP Error Messages' in Tools > Internet Options > Advanced
You will then see the proper error |

OK, the reason why it won't work is that the include is defining a function within a function
To fix this in member_spotlight.asp remove the following lines
line 12: function MemInSpot
line 43: end function
line 46: call MemInSpot
they are not needed anyway |

I implemented the mod in less than 15 minutes! That's got to be painless by anyones standards...
This mod looks really nice, it is perfect for me. I will link my site when it looks a little more professional. |

| First off let me thank David for coming up with this mod. It has given my site a whole new dimension (now if I could only come up with a better color scheme :/ ). But now for my question, I am currently posting reviews and going to post articles on the main page with this mod. I am looking for a way that visitors could rate these articles while using this same mod. It may help to actually take a look at what I mean. www.atvoutdoors.net is the site I am talking about and the review (only one up so far) can be seen at the right of the page. Any ideas on how to add a rating system would be appreciated. Thanks. |
