yes, i used your modified sp_articles function modified to drop images and bbcodes, i'd like to make it work without articles turned on, but I can't figure how to modify that to take posts only from one or two boards.
I think i can modify that to drop first n posts that will be shown in a board news block.
that's my sp_articles function, can you help me?

---------------------------------------------------------------------
I am not sure I understand.
You are talking about turning articles off and mixing together the functions of sp_articles and BoardNews.
This sounds very difficult to me.
If I needed to turn off sportal_article output on the front page off, I would switch to using Board News. It is very easy to get Board News to draw from one or two boards. You can make sure that only "approved" posts go on these boards.
You might be able to accomplish some of the formatting in a CSS file, but you can also use the same kind of custom formatting you've been using in sp_articles in your own customized BoardNews block.
How would you feel about working with a customized BoardNews instead of customized sp_articles?
I'm going to stick with you on this. I have split this topic and moved the customization discussion to customization.
-
Here's a suggestion I got from [SiNaN]
It will be useful to you if you want to use your customized sp_articles block on the portal page, but not see the sportal_articles on the page.
You will have to re-fix this and your custom sp_articles with every SimplePortal update.
Sources/PortalArticles.php
if (empty($modSettings['articleactive']))
$modSettings['articleactive'] = false;
if (empty($modSettings['articleactive']))

ok, got it to turn off sportal_articles in portal page.
i'd like, effectively, to have the modified function of sp_articles and the board news, without articles turned on.
but if that's difficult, i use articles as well, hoping to have in next version the possibility to give to news section moderators the permission to set posts as articles.
thanks!
-
I am not sure I follow you, but I will try. Please let me know if I have misunderstood.
1) If you want to have articles from only one board on the page, you can create a special category, and only display that one category. Then, "someone" can decide which topics on that board are worthy to be articles, and be sure they go in the appropriate category.
PROS:
- Not all topics from the board will be displayed -- only the articles
- Not all articles will be displayed -- only the ones from the one category
- You get the format you have customized in sp_articles.
CONS:
- If nobody chooses articles, nothing new ever shows up.
- With the customized sp_articles, you can display all categories or just 1, but not 2 or 3.
- You need to create a membergroup, perhaps "article moderators" with permission to promote topics to articles
- You need to educate these moderators to put articles in the correct categories
2) You can just use BoardNews, choosing only one board to display on the portal
PROS:
- It's simpler. Board moderators don't have to fiddle with the articles system on top of the forum moderation
- It's simpler. You don't have to create an "article moderators" group on top of global and per-board moderators.
- It's simpler. As soon as a new topic goes on the board, it shows up on the portal.
CONS:
- To keep a topic off the BoardNews, you have to move it to a different board
- As soon as a new topic goes on the board, it shows up on the portal
- To get your preferred display format, you'll have to fiddle with CSS files, and you may even wind up customizing the BoardNews code like you did the sp_articles code.
-
you got it...
I could use Boardnews. in fact i take news only from the "news" board, read only and moderated by articles writers. after writing an article, they lock the discussion and that's my news board.
but you tell me it's very difficult to make a block similar to modified sp_articles reading only from a single board, isn't it?
if so, i have to give news moderators permissions and instructions to promote topics to articles.
but they could promote to articles also topics from other boards, and i don't want it.
-
I'm glad I understand you now! Before, I thought you wanted to put boardnews stuff in function sp_articles(). I didn't like the thought of working on something like that!
I think it will not be too hard to fool with BoardNews.
Not any harder than what you've done to sp_articles.
Still, every time you upgrade SimplePortal, you would have to maintain your new version of BoardNews and the changes to portal.css.
[SiNaN] has said some future version of SimplePortal will have a major improvements for controlling how your blocks look. http://simpleportal.net/index.php?topic=5033.msg30550#msg30550 (http://simpleportal.net/index.php?topic=5033.msg30550#msg30550)
I am looking forward to that.
I'm not a SimplePortal developer, but I will help where I can.
Here's how I think I would approach this:
1) Make some slight changes to the BoardNews block to give you new CSS classes for the header and the body. I cannot find any way to distinguish the <h3 class="catbg"> that heads the boardnews items from the ones within <td id="sp_center"> (when a CURVE-type theme is used -- different html comes out with a core-compatable theme)
2) Add the appropriate styles to portal.css
3) Finally, make another small change to boardnews.css to control the BBC. This can be selective, to allow bold, but turn off images, for example.
OK?
Step 1: new CSS classes for boardnews output
I think you can find the boardnews function in Portalblocks.php.
The parts of the code you want to target are
<h3 class="catbg">
<h3 class="sp_boardnews_head">
<div class="windowbg">
<div class="sp_boardnews_body">
Step 2: customize in portal.css
Once you have these new classes in your code, you can add some stuff to portal.css, if you like, to customize the appearance.
h3.sp_boardnews_head
{
border-top: 1px solid black;
}
div.sp_boardnews_body
{
}
Step 3: Control BBCode
In my customized sp_articles block, you can see that I have commented out some code to supress certain BBC tags. The last time I checked, it worked OK. You can give it a try. This is how the shoutbox allows bold but not glow.
