Re: [ADDON] SimplePortal

I installed the latest version of SP now in my testforum.

The blocks on the right side are now dropping under the blocks in the middle of the portal, if I use my theme.

If I use the default, the blocks from the right side in portal are all displayed on the left side in portal. There are no blocks on the right side.

Try clearing your forum cache and your browser cache and see if that fixes it.

I did this a few times, b4pjoe. I also deactivated every block in portal, etc.

Quote from: b4pjoe – Thanks for the fixes. It is looking much better now. I realize it is still a work in progress but I just want to add a display issue I am seeing. When the width of browser window falls under 1280px the forum starts breaking out of the template like this:

Then if the browser windows goes under 1080 px the forum drops underneath the sidebar like this:

If I disable SimplePortal the forum does not break out of the template. It only happens when SimplePortal is enabled.
Strange, I'm not seeing that behavior.  I know at one point it was breaking out of the side so it must be a a config issue.  How are you using SP (front page, integration, etc) and what are your left/right block settings (width, etc)

Could you provide me your settings as well .. I think you are using frontpage mode and % widths the blocks?

Yes, Spuds: frontpage and in portal.css 22% width for the left and the right blocks

Not entry for the width in the portal settings in the admin panel
 (I tested a little with this before, but there was not the expected result)

SP is set at Integration and my left blocks are set at 240px and right blocks are set at 200px in SP settings. I do not ever use right blocks though.

Here are the add-ons I have installed. My Google ad code is in SP blocks. All I am using SimpleAds for is a place to put my site header at the very top of the page. There isn't a block in Simple Portal that will put my image header at the very top is why I am using Simple Ads for that. I would put my ad code in SimpleAds but it doesn't place the left block like Simple Portal does.

Edit to add: My test forum which is a fresh install of Elk 1.1.3 with only SimplePortal installed with no Google ads doesn't break out of the template when it gets smaller than 1280 px.

After a little more testing...I added my Google ad blocks to my fresh install forum with only SP installed and it now breaks out of the template when the size of the browser window drops less than 1280px.

Yes the % setting for the blocks was not working, it should be fixed in the latest development version.  You can try setting them in the SP admin panel and removing or commenting out whatever you have added to portal.css.  See if that fixes the problem you are seeing.

Could you provide your ad code or is it just a standard adsense js item?  I assume you are placing it in a custom html block.

It is Google AdSense code text/image responsive display ads. And yes it is in a custom html block. I will PM the AdSense code to you.

This is working perfect for the default, Spuds.  :) All blocks are on their place now and have the width, they should have - if I rezise in browser to 90% . It was just not working in my resolution before.

So I think, I will need a new portal.css for my theme or adding to the "old portal.css" all those flex-stuff, which is now in the portal.css of the default....and I have to change something about the media-thing.


Edit:

"In theory" it may work somehow for my theme...but I can't figure it out... :( 
The main menu is looking different now with the changes...

Quote from: Spuds – I pushed a few more updates to the repo, it should fix a couple of the above reports.

1) the credits line was not inserting to the right area, it was also not following the proper language files
2) more flexbox EXPERIMENT updates, should correct a few more layout issues, but its still a work in progress

Quote from: txcas – When the portal is used and you click on the New Posts button, it refreshes the portal page and adds the new post to the bottom of the page.  Clicking on New Replies is working as intended.
I can't reproduce this error, is anyone else seeing this behavior?
Spuds try it at http://www.65creedmoor.com.  I upgraded to the lastest dev version and still see the problem.

another thing wich breaks the design are the long links inside posts (only with portal enabled). They should be displayed on two or more lines. I cannot find a long link now on my forum, but it's also present on @txcas‍ forum http://www.65creedmoor.com/index.php?topic=9225.msg98596#msg98596
sorry for my bad english

This is similar to the problem reported by b4pjoe ... please add
Code: [Select]
overflow: auto;
to the portal.css in the #sp_center {} declaration around line 350 or so .... I just pushed that update to the development version this afternoon.
