Title: Frontpage Issue - Blocks
Post by: Kayel on February 07, 2008, 10:31:07 PM
Link to my site: sonofcrom.com
SMF version: 1.1.4
TP version: TinyPortal 0.9.8
Theme name and version: Black22
Mods installed: none
Related Error messages: none

After a clean fresh install of SMF and TP ( all this done under core SMF theme ) i set up my blocks on the front page. After i was done with the "skeleton" of the site i tried to install a theme. Every single theme i have tried other than the core one causes the all blocks to disappear off Front page. I checked settings. They are enabled. I deactivated, and tried again. I even checked the option that would show only the blocks on the front page. Nothing. All i see is a full width Article. Plus my forum link disappeared from the top bar. Need help on this ASAP.

First Image is standard setup
Second Image has the option to only show Front page blocks

Thank you



EDIT :

I just noticed something. I usually go to sonofcrom.com but if i go to www.sonofcrom.com it shows me home page like i would be a guest and as soon as i log in i'm redirected to the broken frontpage at sonofcrom.com . the weird part is that if i go again there it again shows me as a guest like i never logged in or like it doesn't recognize the login. weird...

Themes must be written to work with TinyPortal, so...
See if this will help you solve the issue:

QuoteWrong Theme

Set your forum to the SMF Core Default theme, and then uninstall the SMF version of the custom theme.
Next go to the download page for the theme that you want.
Make sure to get the correct theme by looking for TP at the end of the theme name on the download page,
most download pages will have two links with the 'Download' button being the SMF version and down below that the TP version.

A few themes are designed to work with SMF as well as SMF/TP and for those you must turn on TinyPortal support in your 'Current Theme' settings.

solved. I was using Black22 instead of Black22 TP. Thank you.
