What settings do you have for the frontpage - show only forum?

And have you chosen a forum thats open to guests?

.All i see is my forum page and the message there are no articles to dispaly.Is there a install.php I need to run in order to set up the portal.I assume by your ? you mean do I see it where the help,search,profile,admin, logout and search buttons are.if so then no I don't.Thanks for the help.rider.

rider

For starters I owe you an apoloygy.The problem is we may have tried to upload the wrong TP.So my ? is this do I just drop the helious TP folder into the helious folder and does it just overide everything?Thanks rider.

IchBin

Why don't you just uninstall the old one, and install the new one in package manager?

Bjørn

First you have to install the mod itself. Then you can install the Helios_TP theme as any other theme...you could just overwrite your current Helios theme yes.

rider

Thanks Bloc.One more ? The mod you refer to is the one from SMF through the package manager?.I see the lite.LOLThanks again for the help.The good thing is from all my problems I'm sure learning fast.rider

Bjørn

hehe..yes, we all do that. Learn from mistakes... ;D

Well bloc I'm back lol.I've got the TP up and running but I've visited a couple of other sites that are running it and have noticed at the end of an article there's a comment button.I don't see that on my site.Any ideas?Also when I try to use the intro function on a topic it always returns me back to the intro and not to the story it self.Any deas on that one too.Thanks rider.




IchBin

hmmm....I see the comments link on my site. What do you have set to display on the front page?

rider

It is set for forums and articles.

Bjørn

It should be there. Are you using one of your own themes?

rider

We are using the heliousTP theme.i just can't get to work right.

Bjørn

The only thing I can think of is that articles do not have the option of comments, just the posts from the board.

That might change, but right now its not an option.

rider

Why does it work for others and not at my site? how about the intro link not working.When I use it it returns me back to the intro and not to the story?I have tried all combinations to get  both issues to work.Thanks for the help bloc

Bjørn

The intro is a bug (..) that will be fixed.

rider

Thanks Bloc.I appricate the time you take to help.rider

rider

One more for you.Under current templates my boardindex.php comes up as 1.0 RC1 and is in red.How do I fix this?We did try to update and it work sort of.It updated to 1.01 but it seemed like we lost half the graphics.Thanks rider.

Bjørn

That number is just taken from the actual file - on top - in each template. So its up to the creator of themes to adjust it.

If the theme is announced to work with 1.0.2 ,but it says 1.0 in this, then just ignore it. Some creators do update the number, others do not. I think I maybe didn't update that number in some files of Helios, but files IS updated with necessary code changes. And thats what important.

In the default theme its another matter, here it IS tied to the number, because the official default them always has it updated. But as you probably have discovered, some files there too, are 1.0.1 or even 1.0 , and not 1.0.2.

That simply is becuase the files hasn't changed since 1.0.1 for instance, and therefore work and look just the same. When a big change come along..like 1.1 for instance, it will most likely change all the file numbers again.
