I hard coded some navigation links into my portal page (http://www.rcwebboard.com/forum/portal.asp in the meantime. I'd still like to be able to show more than 1 center content. Maybe have it set like the sides where you can set the number to display along with a default display. The default display would show like it does now with the additional ones showing just the summary with a link to them or something. This would put the Summary field to use.<

I'm pretty sure you put :


Response.Redirect "/forum/portal.asp"


in your default.asp<

looks like there is no default.asp anyway http://www.geigenx.com/
Just create a file in the root of your site called default.asp with the code above with <% before and %> after it<

Hello

I have read all this post, but i'm still with problems... I'm not sure if i undertood ok all the steps to "install" this mod.

I have made all the changes in the files, and i uploaded them. I run the setup.asp writting it in the explorer address bar. Is it ok?. I think yes...

I did the same with the other .asp to run, the dbs_portal.asp file, but the explorer shows me an strange code:

David's Portal Mod [DROP] CMS_CATEGORY [END] [DROP] CMS_CONTENT [END] [CREATE] CMS_CATEGORY CAT_ID CAT_TITLE#varchar(20)#NULL# CAT_ISLEFT#smallint#NULL#0 CAT_ORDER#int#NULL# [END] [CREATE] CMS_CONTENT CONT_ID CAT_ID#int#NULL# CONT_TITLE#varchar(100)#NULL# CONT_SUMMARY#text#NULL# CONT_BODY#text#NULL# CONT_POSTEDBY#int#NULL# CONT_AUTHOR#int#NULL# CONT_DATE#varchar(14)#NULL# CONT_LAST_EDIT#varchar(14)#NULL# CONT_STATUS#smallint#NULL#0 [END] [INSERT] CONFIG_NEW (C_VARIABLE,C_VALUE)#('strCMSLeftNavWidth','150') (C_VARIABLE,C_VALUE)#('strCMSLeftNavDisplay','5') (C_VARIABLE,C_VALUE)#('strCMSLeftNavItems','1') (C_VARIABLE,C_VALUE)#('strCMSRightNavWidth','150') (C_VARIABLE,C_VALUE)#('strCMSRightNavDisplay','5') (C_VARIABLE,C_VALUE)#('strCMSRightNavItems','1') (C_VARIABLE,C_VALUE)#('strCMSEnableSearch','1') (C_VARIABLE,C_VALUE)#('strCMSDefaultCID','0') (C_VARIABLE,C_VALUE)#('strCMSPageTitle','Portal') (C_VARIABLE,C_VALUE)#('strCMSTitleDisplay','1') (C_VARIABLE,C_VALUE)#('strCMSEnableForumSearch','1') (C_VARIABLE,C_VALUE)#('strCMSEnableGoogleSearch','1') (C_VARIABLE,C_VALUE)#('strCMSEnableActiveTopics','1') (C_VARIABLE,C_VALUE)#('strCMSActiveTopicsItems','5') [END]

I see that Trina was told to use something of this in the "MOD Setup" area of the Administrator Pannel. I only have there an Input box. I supposed that perhaps i should insert there this strange text, that seems like a kind of SQL instruction, trying to make it being executed, but the result is that nothing happens. A message tells me that "There were 0 lines of code"...

The portal must not be completelly set up, becouse when i enter in the "Portal" section of the Administrator Pannel, the "CMS Configuration" dialog, don't show me a "Save" button or something so, and if i try to "Add Category" first, i receive a message telling me that there is some table that doesn't exist:

Microsoft JET Database Engine error '80040e37'

Could not find output table 'FORUM_CMS_CATEGORY'.

/acercatealaluz/admin_cms_category.asp, line 72



Any idea of what am i doing wrong?? I'm K.O.

Any help will be wellcomed.

Thanks in advance!

There are 2 ways to do this

Click "Mod Setup", Select "David's Portal Mod" from the drop-down, click "Update"

OR

Click "Alternative MOD Setup", cut and paste the code from dbs_portal.asp into the box and click "Submit"<

I did it pasting the code of the asp in the text box, and now it tell me that 1 line was executed...

but when i go to the "CMS Configuration" menu, it doesn't appear any "Save" or "Submit" button to send the changes...

And if i try to create the category first with "Add Category", it stills fails giving me the following error :

Microsoft JET Database Engine error '80040e37'

Could not find output table 'FORUM_CMS_CATEGORY'.

/acercatealaluz/admin_cms_category.asp, line 72



Do you know what's wrong? Why there are no buttons? is it normal?

Sorry for the distub...


PD: Ah, and if i use the "MOD Setup" there is also a textbox, not a combo... perhaps i have an old version or something so...?<

David, very much appreciate your Portal mod, It was exactly what I was looking for! Took me only a few minutes to install and I must say it works very smoothly. I have spent many days learning and customizing stuff :).

I saw Link Manager 3 mod has been integrated with Portal Mod, what would it take for me to integrate other useful mods such as News Posting, FAQ, Recent Posts, Poll and so on?

By the way, thanks to OneWayMule I have a block that shows the Recent Topics on your Forum. If anyone would like to have the code please let me know. It makes a great mini add-on to Portal Mod.<
