Invision Community 4: SEO, prepare for v5 and dormant account notifications By Matt November 11, 2024
Zepher Posted May 27, 2009 Posted May 27, 2009 Hi, I use the Portal / Homepage system that comes standard with 2.3. Will there be a similar stock Portal / Homepage / CMS system with the final release of IPB3? I'd like be able to have a place for portal blocks like random gallery image, Latest Discussions, New Members, etc. Thanks! (w00t) :zorro:
Rheddy Posted May 27, 2009 Posted May 27, 2009 Is it going to be a full portal or just the one that is currently in IPB that is only designed to list IPB topics from your IPB software? I've never used the IPB Portal because it's too limiting and not very adaptable to place what you want.
Lee Craven Posted May 27, 2009 Posted May 27, 2009 You can add advertisers/links and custom content I believe, currently with the RC1 Portal there is a bug stopping you being able to post or something (check the tracker) although it looks nice.
bfarber Posted May 27, 2009 Posted May 27, 2009 The IPB portal has plugin functionality - we have written basic plugins for most of our applications (mini-calendar, random gallery image, random download manager file, latest download manager files, etc.) so I'm not sure why you'd think it only supports listing IPB topics. You *do* have to edit the skin template to show the additional plugins, however.
