[TP 1.0 Beta5-1 + SMF 2 rc3] Blocks on FrontPanel aren't showing up

[Blue Steel]

updated via package installer from TP 1.0 Beta 5

arghhh... just noticed that my center phpblock on the frontpanel no longer showing.. I've checked the settings and everything apears to be correct

nothing in the main part of the web page..

Yes top , left , right panels are showing.. just not center.

no matter what i chose on front panel settings
or featured articles settings etc...

nothing is there.. no not even blocks with only frontpanel selected
no not even a single srticle


ok is that enough info ?

Nevermind.....  the upgrade turned it OFF in panel setting.  All good now.

Pitty thats not my preoblem .. i've checked and rechecked .. and am constantly trying things to find my problem

yes i did recheck again after you posted your solution

[Blue Steel]

EG: if i choose featured article + frontpanel i see the article but still no frontpanel with my blocks in there

You're not alone, it's killed my front panel block too.    Can't see any wrong settings.  And it was working perfectly before the upgrade.

Was running a fresh install of RC3 and TP105, now TP1b5-1 no other mods.

Did you do an upgrade??

Do this:

  - uninstall
  - delete package
  - download updated package
  - install
  - check setup

[Blue Steel]

yes i did an update from 1.0 beta 5 .. i had it still installed and then i added the new package direct from this site (not via dowmload link) and applied it

Renegd98, yes did the upgrade as suggested in the first post here, http://www.tinyportal.net/index.php?topic=32364.0

[Renegd98]

I am wondering if you have something left over from the updated, that's why I suggest a fresh reinstall.

I did a uninstall and got the package from here and installed... so it was fresh and all appears to work fine.

I did the same as BlueSteel.   as per the instructions

I can confirm frontpanel blocks dont work with articles.

Ok, I think some update didn't go through here. Does exchanging the attached file solve the issue?

(its for SMF 2.0 Rc2/RC3)

Yep that fixed the front panel for me, Thanks Block.

Now the only panel not working is the bottom panel.

Turn it ON in settings.  The update turned it OFF.

Hi there i have same issue but with smf 1.1.11 .... is there any TPortal.php upgrade ? ... Please

And plus others :

I
Create an simple html article, i.e : " Hello World ... etc"
Create a Front Panel Block , single article type
Result  : i see the block but not the article (it seems that doesnt parse it or so)

I.I
After i created my first Category and put inside the article (above mentioned)
Went to block and changed the type to : Articles in Cat.
Result (at home link):
  Database error
  "Please try again. If come back to these, please contact an administrator"

UPDATE (theres an error in Sources\TPortal.php)

Find and Select

Code Select Expand

$request =  tp_query("SELECT art.id, art.subject, art.date, art.category, art.authorID, art.shortname
IFNULL(mem.realName,art.author) as realName FROM " . $tp_prefix . "articles AS art
LEFT JOIN " . $db_prefix . "members AS mem ON (art.authorID = mem.ID_MEMBER)
WHERE " . $fetchtitles . "
AND art.off=0
AND art.category>0
AND art.approved=1", __FILE__, __LINE__);

Replace with

Code Select Expand

$request =  tp_query("SELECT art.id, art.subject, art.date, art.category, art.authorID, art.shortname,
IFNULL(mem.realName,art.author) as realName FROM " . $tp_prefix . "articles AS art
LEFT JOIN " . $db_prefix . "members AS mem ON (art.authorID = mem.ID_MEMBER)
WHERE " . $fetchtitles . "
AND art.off=0
AND art.category>0
AND art.approved=1", __FILE__, __LINE__);

Missing a "," in original.
-------------------------------------------------------------

Note : if i use other type blocks on front block they are shown...

II
As an admin i can not see Front Blocks (at home link) but everyone else (users that are not admin) can.

III
The button Forum (that links with action= forum") takes to a blank page

IV (minor)
At admin > articles and cat. > editing an category the option cat list gives me :
" Sorry, you are not allowed to view these article" ... 


- Spent 2 days reviewing configurations, permissions, database and (trying) to debug php but could not put these to work.

Thank you for any help

PS - I did an fresh install of SMF 1.1.11 + Tinyportal (latest version 1b5.2) ... still have same problems . The theme is default theme.

Sorry i supose it would be better to open a new threat for these.
