I'm having a problem getting the blocks to display where I want... I have SP setup as a standalone portal, so I go to the site and get index.php (standaloneportal.php) and if I navigate using the top menu it directs me to /forums/index.php
I can get the blocks to display everywhere I want except I can't figure out how to get them to display on /forums/index.php
I've checked every single box under the advanced portion and it just won't show up... Any ideas?

Checking the 'Forum' action should make this work, but it doesn't for Standalone mode.

This is a bug, I have added it to the bugtracker: http://simpleportal.net/index.php?issue=308.0

For now, here is the solution below:

Code ("Find (sources/Subs-Portal.php)") Select Expand

elseif (empty($action) && empty($board) && $modSettings['sp_portal_mode'] == 2 && in_array('forum', $display))

Code ("Replace") Select Expand

elseif (empty($action) && empty($board) && ($modSettings['sp_portal_mode'] == 2 || $modSettings['sp_portal_mode'] == 3) && in_array('forum', $display))

Sweet, I'm not going crazy and I found a bug... I figured it was supposed to work...

Okay, so it works if I select show on Forum from the dropdown box. But what I was trying to do is to have it show everywhere but a few spots. For instance the calendar block doesn't make sense to display when a user is viewing the calendar...

Okay I got it to where I want. SP has a nice little thing to set where not to display blocks and i just clicked all of those and now I'm happy. Thanks for you help.

Well, I was referring to the 'Forum' action when you have enabled 'Advanced Display options', that should display the block on your main forum page only. With the edit above, it should work.

Glad that you got it working how you want.

Marked as solved.
