Title: Why not use SimplePortal?
Post by: emanuele on July 25, 2017, 07:27:15 am
Since we have it, I wonder if it is not easier to use it instead of the custom home page.
@Spuds do you think replicate the structure would be difficult?
Worst case we build new features into SP to have what we need, no? O:-)

Mmm, maybe people downloading the software think that the portal is coming by default?

Perhaps, but is that really any different with the current custom mini-portal?

Well, we started using the page just because there was no portal available. O:-)

I think this (http://addons.elkarte.net/feature/Simple-Portal.html), that (https://simpleportal.net/) or a link to a demo site is meant.  ;D

Just to clarify: we talk about the use of the portal for version 1.1?

Yep. :)

I hope to see sometime a portal software in which the width of the columns is not limited to pixels or percent.  ;D

If you use CSS it's limited to whatever you want it to be. :P
And using !important you can override even inline styles. ;)

I know that already. But why a two-way system, if you can handle unnecessary entries in the css file?

If you have time to fix it, send a PR to the Github repo. Or complain to @Spuds @[SiNaN] ;)

Yes I would like to see SimplePortal or PortaMX be used for a portal or be included in the Elkarte package , surely only PortaMX if Feline would port her old version over to here...which she probably has no time to do as she works on her own forum right now...
The problem with SimplePortal is , that it still has a few bugs with Elkarte 1.1.1...

I'll be going for my pilgrimage soon. I hope I can see to this after I am back. I also want to use it for 1.1 and I will extend it to support Multi Tenancy Addon as well.

Well, this topic was to use SP on this very site, not to have SP packaged in Elk, for that there is another one ( https://www.elkarte.net/community/index.php?topic=2572.0 ).

@hartiberlin‍ take into consideration that elkarte 1.1.1 was released about a month ago, Spuds already updated most of his addons to work with elkarte 1.1.1, we need to be a little patient, I'm sure he will also fix the bugs into SP. In the meantime if you find any bug related to SP report it in the dedicated topic.
as for Portamx I doubt that the author will release a version for elkarte

Well .. thats true .. also we dont make a Portal for SMF 2.1
The new Portal version is exclusive for our Forum version  ;D and it's not a mod .. it's integrated in the Forum

I revisited SimplePortal yesterday and I am sure there not gonna be much fixes needed.
