There are alot of things i want to do with the portal mod, but i don't know how to or if they are even possible. Can anyone help?
things i need to do: -Get rid of header from my header.asp -use a style sheet for table borders and font colors etc.
Are these things possible? I could of course make a whole new header, but that seems tedious, and complicated seeing as how im not good with asp. But i really need the CSS style sheet thing. Can anyone please help me, I'm trying to get my site back up as soon as possible.
Any help would be greatly apprecited, and thanks in advance. |

My portal uses style sheets for the tables, view the source of my homepage to see.
To get rid of the header you could wrap the code in an if....then statement and don't show it if the page is portal.asp |

Well, i am installing Speedball forum right now, and even though i figure i will have to redo all my mods, it does use a CSS, so do9es that mean the portal mod and all others will use the same CSS? |

David, let me just say I like the mod, my website was just a forum and now it looks more functional.
One issue I ran into was this. If you keep your cookies, then there is no problem. If I delete my cookies and then use my web address to access the site it comes up with a page not found. Now, I know why, sort of. The site must check cookies, finds none and then directs me to:http://vulgari.no-ip.info/login.asp?target=portal.asp. The problem is that login.asp is located in the 'forum'directory! So a couple of my users would be 'hey whats the deal?' I ended up giving them the correct link to /forum/portal.asp and all worked ok, cookie or no.
I did fix the problem, after scrounging around the login problem topics, selecting no to Require Registration. I would like to set this to yes, but still allow a user to view the portal.asp and have the site directed correctly if they are not logged in or their cookie has not been received, but I dont know the code well enough to know where the redirection is coming from.
Yes, in IIS I have my start page to /forum/portal.asp which is fine if you have previously logged in before. So it must be something in login.asp or portal.asp that checks and then does the redirect.
I am starting to repeat myself so I will stop.
Here is a link to my site: http://vulgari.no-ip.info username test password test
One more thing. I try seting up an account, i get policy.asp and hit agree only to sit there. Very frustrating. I think this prompted my above issue because I ended up deleting my cookies to get around this only to discover the above problem too.
Thanks in advance. Sean |
