Getting Portal to frontpage

Post by SotD »

Hi

This is probably a very basic question - But I am less than basic :)

I would like to have the Portal as my front page. At the moment only the left part is visable. What to do?

Hi
Open: root/.htaccess
Add the following to the end

Code: Select all

DirectoryIndex app.php/portal index.php index.html index.htm

Doesn't seem to do the trick unfortunately...

You can probably not tell anything from my site link, but if you in some magical way can, then this is it:

You have to edit the .htaccess is the root in your forums (there where the config.php is)

Great. Thanks a lot!

How do I change "Portal" to another name eg. "Home" ? I mean in the top, just below the banner.

Open: root/board3/portal/language/en/portal.php
Find:

Code: Select all

	'PORTAL'			=> 'Portal',
Replace with:

Code: Select all

	'PORTAL'			=> 'Home',
Encoding the File with UTF-8 without BOM.

Seems to work, but for some reason it just seems to be called "Portal" everywhere...

When I open the site it is called

http://fmdanmark.dk/app.php/portal

I would prefer it to be called http://fmdanmark.dk when I click the banner, and when people make it a favorite.

So far, thanks a LOT for the help. I would have never managed to get this far without help. I hope you can keep helping me to tweak it ever so slightly :)

There is a possibility but this is not recommended.
Open: root/ext/board3/portal/styles/prosilver/template/event/overall_footer_breadcrumb_prepend.html and root/ext/board3/portal/styles/prosilver/template/event/overall_header_breadcrumb_prepend
Find:

Code: Select all

{U_PORTAL}
Replace with:

Code: Select all

http://fmdanmark.dk
You can view the portal without app.php
Go to ACP/Server settings by Enable URL Rewriting: set it to yes.

Ich verstehe nicht ganz dein Problem, deine Starseite ist doch das Portal.

mchat und Portal sowie doppelte Einträge

Post by sina54 »

bei mir stand Startseite-Portal-und forumsübersicht (ich habe heute einfach das Portal rauskopiert damit niemand mehr draufgeht da es nicht auf das Portal führt sondern auf einen fehlenden Pfad führt)

Die startseite soll Portal heissen nicht Startseite das wäre gut!
Ich hab noch ein Problem der Chat macht doppelt und dreifache Einträge was mache ich da falsch? (scheint aber nur bei mir zu sein..Die User beklagen sich nicht)

Dann trage doch im ACP bei Homepage-URL Text Portal ein.
