Front page and blocks

[Anpu]

Hi, I would like to set on center panel on frontpage blocks in two columns.

I was trying almost all options and couldnt make such effect as each block would go one below another, with width size of size of center panel.

Is it even possible to set blocks in two columns?
I also tried to simulate that layout with articles, but all I got is one article displayed and below it "Page 1,2,3...".

I am running atm TinyPortal v0.9.8, SMF 1.1.11

Thanks in advance!

I do not believe that TP 0.9.8 has the option to layout blocks like that. You'll need to upgrade to the latest TP if you'd like those options, as support for TP 0.9.8 has been discontinued since it is now a few years old.

Ah ok, thanks for response.

I checked current version and noticed it is labeled as "beta". I tried to find some stable version between the current one I am using and beta ones but failed to do so.

Are you suggesting me to switch to beta version? I also got information that for using the latest TP, I also need to update SMF to 2.0 RC3. Because of both piece of software are not being in release/stable state, I am in a doubt should I upgrade or not.    I noticed you (TP site) are using this combo. Do you mind sharing how are you satisfied with stability and security of this TP&SMF combo? Do you suggest upgrading or waiting final release state?

Actually, TP 0.9.8 was never labeled "stable" either. It just happens to be the most stable one at that time. If you are worried about these things, I would suggest you upgrade a copy of your site. Then you can tell what kind of problems you will run into during this. I'm willing to put up with bugs myself. Some people aren't. So it depends on you, and what kind of problems you may or may not have.
