@Bingle
Looks great now all you need is to join the phpbb Forum Web Ring to get traffic to your site and your all set.

I designed a site some time ago for kids... The aim was to provide a safe search engine for young people the basic search page looked like this... The No worries web url was taken so we came up with Bimbles...
Note the name... close isn't it

I'm installing the portal/phpbb install. I get to the first step and get this error: Fatal error: Call to undefined function phpbb_chmod() in /homepages/40/d217707377/htdocs/install/install_install.php on line 447

Help?

[Michaelo]

Not sure why you are using the phpBB install folder and the portal install is in root/portal folder
Did you install a clean phpBB 3.0.4 or are up adding the portal?

You may want to hang on till 17th March for the RC1 release...

This is pretty much it for some considerable time... no more major changes...

Added:
portal pages > You can wrap you html code in the portal. See: http://www.stargate-portal.com/forum/po ... tal_page=6
web pages > Add any html pages you like. See: http://www.stargate-portal.com/forum/we ... de=youtube

• Revamped quite a bit of the portal ACP...
• Fixed all outstanding errors...
• All page can now show left and or right blocks (optional)...
  Many other changes... drop by the new dev site for a look

Just a update re RC1 (Cashel)... available at: sourceforge: https://sourceforge.net/project/showfil ... _id=156802
Discussion: http://www.stargate-portal.com/forum/vi ... yle=7&f=11

New install with AutoMod take about a minute...
Updating can be a bit tricky so check the forums above...

Michael, I have always been impressed with your work and with the look and feel of your site.
but I'm easy to impress
You have created some awesome stuff man. You're up there with the big boys in my book!

20 queries on index.php...nice!!

/me concurs with sniper_e

[Michaelo]

Thanks Guys... that means a lot to me... after such a long time it's easy to loose interest...
The queries are down because I added caching to pretty much all block queries...
The current release bears little resemblance to the early versions... things are improving and will hopefully continue to improve with time...

How can I use {S_USERNAME} on the portal?

[Jaymie1989]

I know some users want the AJAX Chat by handyman on there portal page and I have created this for you who want it
Here is what I done to show the chat on the portal page.

Open: portal.php
Find:

Code: Select all

// Start session management
$user->session_begin();
$auth->acl($user->data);
$user->setup('portal/portal');

Add After:

Code: Select all

include($phpbb_root_path . 'shout.' . $phpEx);

Now open your template folder for your style
Open: portal.html
Find:

Code: Select all

<!-- INCLUDE overall_footer.html -->

Add Before:

Code: Select all

<!-- INCLUDE chat_body.html -->

it works for me
