Hi!

When editing the settings for the front page, you can only choose "Show front page blocks" and "Show articles and fron page blocks" (And the others, which has nothing to do whit front page blocks).

I want to show all articles, the posts from a specific forum,  and the front page blocks.

When creating blpoxks you can choose the actions to show them in, but you can't choose "Frontpage".
Could I write something in the "custom action name" box to make what I want?

Hope you understand.

What version of Tiny Portal are you using?

There are different ways of going about what you want, depending what your looking for. 

If you have "Forum-posts and articles - sorted on date" checked, your Frontpage Blocks should still be shown as long as you set them to be visable.

I'm using 0.9.8

I have "Forum-posts and articles - sorted on date" checked, but they don't show.

How many items have you set the frontpage to show ? Default is 5 if i remember correctly

MTF95

#4
Does that number affect the front page blocks?

MTF95

It started t owork when I checked "Frontpage blocks are showed first".

But now, is it possbile to make a fronpage blokc which is displayed to the left / right? i don't want it to be like a center block, but still want it to just be showed at the front page.

G6Cad

No, not in TP V098. The frontpage block are only shown on the frontpage, thats why they are called frontpage blocks  :)

The left and right panels can be shown on the frontpage if you set the panels to show there, but they will still be left and right side blocks.  :)

MTF95

That was what I ment, can I make right and keft blocks show on frontpage only?

IchBin

In the panel settings you can turn the left/right panels off while in the forum.

MTF95

yes, but I donn't want that.
i want some left and right blocks to show only on front page ;)
