Title: Where did the boards go?
Post by: jah313 on March 29, 2006, 02:24:07 PM
I am using SMF RC2 on my board: www.911grumble.com/smf

I installed TP without any problems or errors, but now The boards are not visible. I can see they exist in the admin mode, but no one else can see them on the main page (link above). How do I activate them so they are seen by all?

You have a non TP Theme. Go to the downloads section and get Helios Multi for TP. To be absolutely sure, swtich to SMF Default and your test blocks that are pre-installed should show.

WOW  ;D You guys are amazing at replying, thank you. I will do that now!!!

One more question, will TP allow me to run tower banners down the right side of the forum. I have been having one hell of a time trying to get the banners to run down the side instead of taking up space at the top.

You are the man!!!

Yes, just create an html bock* with the editor off and use ordinary html to insert them. Once you create the block, change it ot javascript/html before you publish it.

* create your code in your normal editor such as frontpage, and copy paste the html code to your new block. You only need the relevant lines of code, not all of the page created.

I see that, but you've put on in thats too wide for the block.

Now all you do for your main front page block is the exact same as you did for the side block, using your front page content.
