I cannot get the center block to display

[Nokonium]

Fiddled all the ways I can think, even created a new center block. Both show 'green' in 'Edit Blocks' but neither show. Should there be a 'Use Center' in General Settings?

Just been reading the posts in the chlild board, is it theme related? Fiddlers Elbow is using Mercury and SGR is a custom them of my own.

You need a little bit of code in index.template.php..which is not in older versions.

Thanks Bloc, done and fiddling again

how to put a centerblock at the bottom of the page (below forum news or forumboard)?

[Bjørn]

Basically just move the centerblock code like this:

from:

Code Select Expand

        echo '<td width="100%" align="left" valign="top" style="padding-top: 10px; padding-bottom: 10px;" id="bodyarea">';
        if($context['TPortal']['centerbar'])
                     echo '<div>' , TPortal_centerbar() , '</div>';

}

function template_main_below()
{
        global $context, $settings, $options, $scripturl, $txt , $user_info;

   echo '</td>';


to:

Code Select Expand

        echo '<td width="100%" align="left" valign="top" style="padding-top: 10px; padding-bottom: 10px;" id="bodyarea">';

}

function template_main_below()
{
        global $context, $settings, $options, $scripturl, $txt , $user_info;

        if($context['TPortal']['centerbar'])
                     echo '<div>' , TPortal_centerbar() , '</div>';

   echo '</td>';


Of course this would move ALL centerblocks under there...

How would I get a center block to center itself right below the forum display?

RC2 & TP 0.8.6 (With TP Helios Multi if that matters)

You could manually enter the center block code to do this in the index.template file.

[TwinsX2Dad]

And that would probably vary depending on theme, right?

[IchBin]

Definately will depend on the theme.
