Title: Move Portal left blocks to the left of the page (image included)
Post by: Titanium13 on January 20, 2014, 04:50:44 PM

Hello!,
Well I trying to move the left portal blocks all to the left of the page, in a way they can ocupy the forum from the header till the bottom. To do this I made a new div aligned to the left of the page and tried to put some code from sp_left but it couldn't put it working, so i just called the template_above_portal() function like this:

Code: [Select]

<div id="sidebar" style="background-color: #2a2a2a; width: 220px; height:1000px float: left;">
<div >
', template_portal_above(), '
     </div>
<div id="wrapper">
<div id="header">
(...)

well it was placed where I wanted it but now I have the block in two places: where I wanted and where they are originally (aligned to the left of forum body). I tried to work out how to removed that and maintain my "left sidebar" but I couldn't manage to do it.

Basically what I want is to maint the thing that is in the blue box and erased the one in the green box.


Thanks in advance!

Cumps,

Hello and welcome to SimplePortal!

What you need to do is, remove the following code:

Themes/default/Portal.template.php

Code: (Find) [Select]

if (!empty($modSettings['showleft']) && !empty($context['SPortal']['blocks'][1]))
{
echo '
<td id="sp_left"', !empty($modSettings['leftwidth']) ? ' width="' . $modSettings['leftwidth'] . '"' : '', $context['SPortal']['sides'][1]['collapsed'] && empty($modSettings['sp_disable_side_collapse']) ? ' style="display: none;"' : '', '>';

foreach ($context['SPortal']['blocks'][1] as $block)
template_block($block);

echo '
</td>';
}
Then for the part of the code you've provided, do the following:

Code: (Find) [Select]

<div >
', template_portal_above(), '
     </div>

Code: (Replace) [Select]

<div>';

foreach ($context['SPortal']['blocks'][1] as $block)
template_block($block);

echo '
</div>
