I just want to confirm something with this one, the 'outta block' that you set other blocks in, this decides who can see them all? you cant set so differant member groups can see for example one block inside and another member group could see 2?

i want to add php custom block to block in block...

But not getting a way to do it.

My PHP code is (Planning to add smf info center in block in block)

Code: [Select]
global $context, $txt, $settings, $modSettings, $sourcedir, $user_info;

   // Get the user online list.
   require_once($sourcedir . '/Subs-MembersOnline.php');

   $context['show_buddies'] = !empty($user_info['buddies']);

   // Are we showing all membergroups on the board index?
   if (!empty($settings['show_group_key']))
      $context['membergroups'] = cache_quick_get('membergroup_list', 'Subs-Membergroups.php', 'cache_getMembergroupList', array());

   // Track most online statistics? (Subs-MembersOnline.php)
   if (!empty($modSettings['trackStats']))
      trackStatsUsersOnline($context['num_guests'] + $context['num_spiders'] + $context['num_users_online']);

   // Retrieve the latests posts if the theme settings require it.
   if (isset($settings['number_recent_posts']) && $settings['number_recent_posts'] > 1)

I would suggest putting that custom php code into a custom php block.
 
when you are satisfied with that, then explore using it inside another block.
Please to keep this website running, if you like SimplePortal, make a
one-time subscription. Thank you for your support.

Have you tried the SimplePortal documentation?

If you are using the method explained in this post, then you'll have to pass that whole code as the "content" parameter for sp_php block. However, it should be easier to do using the method explained at the very first post of this topic.
And slowly, you come to realize... It's all as it should be...

You can even call the block functions, without the block template, using the proper parameters. And with some JavaScript, you can have pretty blocks like this:

http://simpleportal.net/index.php?page=blocks_in_block_sample#sp_collapse_54

Code: [Select]
global $txt;

$txt['recent_topics'] = 'Recent Topics';
$txt['recent_posts'] = 'Recent Posts';

$buttons = array(
   'recent_topics' => array(
      'text' => 'recent_topics',
      'image' => '',
      'lang' => true,
      'url' => '#recent_topics" id="b_rt" onclick="change_display(\'rp\'); return false;',
      'active' => true,
   ),
   'recent_posts' => array(
      'text' => 'recent_posts',
      'image' => '',
      'lang' => true,
      'url' => '#recent_posts" id="b_rp" onclick="change_display(\'rt\'); return false;',
   ),
);

echo '
<div style="overflow: auto;">
   ', template_button_strip($buttons), '
</div>
<div id="recent_topics">
   ', sp_recent(array('type' => 1, 'display' => 1), 0), '
</div>
<div id="recent_posts" style="display: none;">
   ', sp_recent(array('display' => 1), 0), '
</div>
<script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript"><!-- // --><![CDATA[
   function change_display(block)
   {
      var current = block == \'rt\' ? 1 : 0;

      document.getElementById(\'recent_topics\').style.display = current ? \'none\' : \'\';
      document.getElementById(\'recent_posts\').style.display = current ? \'\' : \'none\';
      document.getElementById(\'b_rt\').className = current ? \'button_strip_recent_topics\' : \'button_strip_recent_topics active\';
      document.getElementById(\'b_rp\').className = current ? \'button_strip_recent_posts active\' : \'button_strip_recent_posts\';
   }
// ]]></script>';

So this is what I call "power of simplicity". I hope this gave a brief idea about how flexible and powerful SimplePortal is. If you have any questions, feel free to ask. ;)



There is also an alternative easier way explained here:

http://simpleportal.net/index.php?topic=5332.msg37841#msg37841

Edit: Fixed a minor issue with last block code.
Edit: disabled link to **** site

This is amazing; however, I can't seem to figure out how ot link to custom php blocks, as opposed to pre-made SP blocks?

This is the current code I'm using for my blocks, which also includes a piece to make sure the parent block only displays the inner blocks to the correct membergroups. I'd like to keep that aspect to it, as well, so that I can tab them all but not have X, Y or Z showing to the wrong membergroup.

This is just a regular block in block - how do I turn it into tabs?:
Code: [Select]
$block_ids = array(34, 15, 20, 26, 106, 92, 102, 79, 83, 85);

$block_data = array();
foreach ($block_ids as $block)
{
   $data = current(getBlockInfo(false, $block, false, false, true));
   if (empty($data))
      continue;
   $block_data[$block] = $data;
   $block_data[$block]['style'] = sportal_parse_style('explode', $block_data[$block]['style'], true);
}

foreach ($block_data as $data)
echo '<div>', template_block($data), '</div>';

Thank you for your time! :)

Carrying off where others got stuck..

What is the correct code to call custom php blocks into the javascript version to work in tabs?

I've got this far but stuck calling the other block..

Code: [Select]
$block['style'] = sportal_parse_style('explode', $block['style'], true);  //Parse block style parameters.
template_block($block); // Output the block.
$blocks = array(
                   array(
'label' => 'Chat',
'type' => 'sp_shoutbox',
'parameters' => array('display' => 1, 'shoutbox' => 2),
),
array(
'label' => 'Who`s Online',
'type' => 'sp_whosonline',
'parameters' => array('display' => 1),
),
array(
'label' => 'Recent Posts',
'type' => 'sp_php',
'parameters' => array( 'display' => 67),
),
array(
'label' => 'Unread Posts',
'type' => 'sp_recent',
'parameters' => array(),
),

);

global $txt;

$button_list = array();
foreach ($blocks as $id => $block)
{
$txt['sp_bib_label_' . $id] = $block['label'];

$button_list[] = array(
'text' => 'sp_bib_label_' . $id,
'image' => '',
'lang' => true,
'url' => '#sp_bib_' . $id . '" id="sp_bib_button_' . $id . '" onclick="sp_bib_change(' . $id . '); return false;',
);
}

$button_list[0]['active'] = true;

echo '
<div style="overflow: auto;">
', template_button_strip($button_list), '
</div>';

foreach ($blocks as $id => $block)
{
echo '
<div id="sp_bib_', $id, '"', $id != 0 ? ' style="display: none;"' : '', '>';

$block['type']($block['parameters'], 0);

echo '
</div>';
}

echo '
<script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript"><!-- // --><![CDATA[
function sp_bib_change(id)
{
for (var i = 0; i < ', count($blocks), '; i++)
{
document.getElementById(\'sp_bib_\' + i).style.display = i == id ? \'\' : \'none\';
document.getElementById(\'sp_bib_button_\' + i).className = \'button_strip_\' + i + (i == id ? \' active\' : \'\');
}
}
// ]]></script>';

But the Recent Posts isn't grabbing my custom block I'd like to use.. :(

wow. great.

someone can tell me if it is possible to alter from container block some parameter of nested block(s)?

e.g. I have a custom php block where i open a shoutbox block named "Event #1 Chat".

I want to change that #1 with #n from custom block. where can i get the title of the block and change it before the output command?

Thanks


ok. found:

Code: [Select]
$block['label']
