Re: Question About News Ticker..

You should be able to add an XS news ticker to a portal page by adding a new block with the block file xs_news (ACP>>(IM)PORTAL>>Add BLOCKS). Then in ACP>>XS News Configuration, set display news ticker to yes.

On my last attempted use of this, it didn't work properly! But that was some time back (XS 047), so maybe ok now. If it still doesn't work, try this http://www.phpBBXS.eu/viewtopic.php?t=84

Re: Question About News Ticker..

I've fixed this in my dev package...

I don't know if these files will work with 058a, but I attach them here, so you can try them.

Please let me know it they works.

Re: Question About News Ticker..

GREAT WORK ! Now all ok ! I've made just a little change in "forum.php" for no display news ticker, this one;
//
// Should the news banner be shown?
//
//if( $xs_news_config['xs_show_news'] && (!empty($template->xs_version)) )
// {
//    include($phpbb_root_path . 'includes/xs_news.php');
//    $template->assign_block_vars('switch_show_news', array() );
//}
//
// Generate the page
//
and now i've all ok !
Just a little question (if is possible) can i put shoutbox at the top of forum page ? (now is at the end).

Many many thanks for the real help
and sorry for my bad bad english (i'm italian)

Excellent MG - it was bugging me in the past, but as I made myself an i frame rss feed reader, and then Gary made one as well, I ignored the XS one completely!

@gamelan Yes, you can put the shoutbox anywhere you want! If you go to templates/ca_aphrodite/index_body.tpl

look for:

Code: [Download] [Hide] [Select]

<!-- BEGIN switch_show_shoutbox -->

<table width="100%" cellspacing="0" border="0" align="center" cellpadding="0" class="forumline">

    <tr>

        <td align="center" nowrap="nowrap" class="catHead"><span class="cattitle"><a href="{U_SHOUTBOX_MAX}">{L_SHOUTBOX}</a></span></td>

    </tr>

    <tr>

        <td>

        <iframe src="{U_SHOUTBOX}" scrolling="NO" width="100%" height="190" frameborder="0" marginheight="0" marginwidth="0" allowtransparency="true"></iframe>

        </td>

    </tr>

</table>

<!-- END switch_show_shoutbox -->

To put it above the forum, move the above section to just before

Code: [Download] [Hide] [Select]

{BOARD_INDEX}

Note, it should be after

Code: [Download] [Hide] [Select]

{CALENDAR_BOX}

Niente... molto ben venuto

Now...
I have discovered that the xsnews block tpl (templates/ca_aphrodite/blocks/xs_news_block.tpl) has some missing tags, which can lead to display problems if using internet explorer - for e.g. the news source/from text formatting (e.g. I have my own theme and the text is supposed to be white on dark blue, but with mising tags, the text is blue on dark blue!).

Here is the correct version:
