PHP & SQL basic help please ?

[fenris_w0lf]

Hmm...I have this in my Menu Manager...So I added the article just fine....





But it wont show in my Main Menu:





This also happened when I added the PJIRC Chat. To get that "Chat" link you see on the pic above I had to do as described in my previous post. Add a action to the action php and then add that line in that pic you see in my previous post. That pic is something I find when I press Edit on the "Main Menu" item (pos 0 Left Side Block) on next pic below.





Thats my Edit Blocks menu. I cant seem to find any IIRC here ://

If you deleted that block add in a new one of the type "menubox", and anything you already have in the menu manager will show up.

When I try to add a new item these are the types I can choose from:

userbox
newsbox
statsbox
searchbox
html
onlinebox
themebox
shoutbox
catmenu
phpbox
scriptbox
recentbox
ssi
module
rss

ahh.. select catmenu (I had the wrong name)

and see what it gives you

[fenris_w0lf]

Ah yes...soo nice !!!

I deleted the Main Menu that was there (it was of type html) and I'm now using a catmenu instead. The (very small) drawback is that one cant seem to get rid of those "bullets" that pops up in front of the items ?

[Rasyr]

To get rid of the bullets:

Edit TPortalBlocks.template.php, this should be in your default directory. Find the following code:

Code Select Expand


function TPortal_catmenu()
{
        global $context, $settings, $options , $scripturl;

    if(isset($context['TPortal']['menu']) && !empty($context['TPortal']['menu'])){
        foreach($context['TPortal']['menu'] as $cn){
             echo str_repeat("  ", ($cn['sub']+1));
             if((!isset($cn['icon']) || (isset($cn['icon']) && $cn['icon']=='')) && $cn['type']!='head' && $cn['type']!='spac'){
                 echo '<img src="'.$settings['images_url'].'/TPdivider2.gif" alt="" />&nbsp;';
             }
             elseif(isset($cn['icon']) && $cn['icon']!='' && $cn['type']!='head' && $cn['type']!='spac'){
                 echo '<img alt="*" src="'.$cn['icon'].'" />&nbsp;';
             }


Change /TPdivider2.gif to /blank.gif and those bullets should disappear. (Note: make sure you have blank.gif in the images folder of the theme you are using -- if not, drop the attached image file into the Themes/[theme you are using]/images folder)

man...is there ANYTHING you dont know how to fix !??



Again Rasyr, HUGE thanks!!!!

[Rasyr]

Hey! I like tweaking and playing with code. It is how I figure out how it works.. hehe...

[fenris_w0lf]

Hmm....some of the users reports of:

Code Select Expand

Warning: mysql_pconnect(): Access denied for user 'xxxxxx_phpbb'@'localhost' (using password: YES) in /home/xxxxxx/public_html/db/aokranks_username.php on line 9
Access denied for user 'xxxxxx_phpbb'@'localhost' (using password: YES)

Any idea ??

[Rasyr]

Well, it apparently has something to do with the aokranks_username.php page.

I know that isn't a SMF or TP page, so what is it?

[fenris_w0lf]

What it is ??

Well, I'll tell you what it is!!! 

.

...its me jumping the gun with my eyes closed makin miself look like the fool I prolly am...

It was someone clicking the old ranking-list (with a dead database) instead of the new one you helped me make, and I assumed the error was due to the newest one... *blush*

* fenris_w0lf <-- 

hehe

[fenris_w0lf]

BTW: Is there a spesific name for the "place" where we've placed the result of that php? You know, in the centre with blocks around and menuline on top...

(My first language is not english prolly one of the reasons I'm asking this)
