Title: TinyPortal For Elkarte
Post by: Egbune on July 15, 2017, 10:06:02 am
Hi, I think elkarte should also create an option for admins to select Tinyportal.
I think it has some great features SP doesn't have.
It has a frontpage system ( not all post or topics get featured in the home page ). I mean, mods and admins have the ability to select topics they want featured in the homepage.

Just Thinking (but I want it so bad!)

It does have some nice features.

I had started to port it (mind you this was years ago) but found the code a bit difficult so it was slow going to do a proper port.  Fortunately SP changed the license and I was able to move my efforts to that and port it instead.  Its code base, IMO, was much better structured.

Perhaps @emanuele or @IchBin would port is since they are involved in TP  ;D

Damn! Why did you stop? Well SP is nice too, but will really love for elkarte to give TP a space

Unlikely from my side. :)
It's likely easier to write a similar block for SP at that point in time than convert TP to ElkArte. :)
