@Spuds

Working on having an image displayed in portal block for the gallery.
However, I can't get visibility profile to work right.

I used to use this before: ~action|media
Yet, not working. I want it showing on all media pages. (Levertine)
This is on my 2.0 site.

EDIT:

Also, just noticed, even though everything is set to show my main blocks everywhere, and visibility profile shows all, the blocks will only show on portal.

Looks like you are trying to use a custom block from 1.x, those will not work with this new version of SimplePortal.

I did a 2.0 version for RecentEx that you can try, its attached.  Overwrite the one you added to Addons/SimplePortal/subs/spblocks, and if you added any others there they need to be removed so they can be updated.

Any idea on why no blocks will show outside of the main portal page?
I have everything set right, and they should be showing.
This is on 2 sites.

Funny thing was, I'd removed the block, and it was not in the new site.
Must have still been something in the database about it, maybe?
Anyway, seems to have done the trick with the abstract issue. :)

For the blocks not showing other than the main page.

in Portal.subs.php find (should be line 211)

Code: [Copy]
	// Add the portal template
	theme()->getTemplates()->load('Portal');
and update as follows
Code: [Copy]
	// Add the portal template
	theme()->getTemplates()->load('Portal');
	theme()->getLayers()->add('portal');

That seems to have done it, my friend.

Still have the issue of not being able to select a board for Board News blocks.

@Spuds

EDIT:

I think I solved that one.
It happened to be that all boards were showing everywhere, due to not keeping my set boards for them.
Switched all board news blocks to correct visibility profiles, and it cleared up.
