Re: Feature Request.
-----------------------------------
Nevermind.. I found the "edit this page" link on the portal index. Wow, that's like the best part of IcyP and I managed to miss it!  =)

BTW, before I forget; If you click "delete" on a block and then choose 'no' you are taken to  [color=#d80000]Home » CMS » Site Pages[/color] instead of 'Blocks Management'. No biggie but I thought I should mention it.

A couple of questions about Block Management.

1. If I want to make one of the blocks global, do I just create a new block in "global blocks", call it the same as the block from the portal page and use the same 'Block File'? Or is there another way?

2. How do I set what forums the 'recent' block shows? I added another block and chose 'recent topics' in the "Block File:" drop-down. I gave it the name Recent Support and clicked 'yes' for the "Show Titlebar:" option. It works, I now have two recent topics blocks. But they show the same topics. Did I do this right or should I have created my own template for a new Block File first? Or do I just need to edit something?

3. If I don't want one of the blocks on the Portal index but on the Forum index. Do I just disable it in the Block Management in the "3_column.tpl" and then create a new one in Global Blocks using the same template? Or is there an "easier" way?

4. Same as above, only I want to show it on both portal AND forum index. Do I do the same and just enable both?
