Add the photo block / featured photo to my non-forum home page?

mrcake · January 18th, 2009, 02:50 PM

Hi all,
is there a way to inbed the featured photos/photo block into our home page? Some html code to insert, or somthing? Where to find? Please let me know!
index.html

Also, just got the install this week. Can't find options for customizing the info that shows in the featured photos, would like to remove the 'members galleries, photos, comments'

Any help would be appreciated.

Chuck recently revised the inc_features.php file to be included into almost anything. Either that, or you can set the random photo block per photo. check out he PP blog for that coding.. ;-)

Thanks for that. One of my problems is that I can't find, don't know where to go to find in_features.php
PhotoPost admin? vbulletin admin? Or my host? (hostmonster).

Any help is appreciated!

That file is for a php page.

Thanks, Chuck. So it's not doable with my current setup.

Any advise which lines of code to remove from the inc_features.php file to get rid of the below? I am not having any luck finding what to remove...

have you tried renaming your file to 'Dot"php?

Sometimes, that makes a world of difference.. if that is possible.

If your server runs PHP which it does if your running Photopost you can convert any html page to php with a bit of knowledge

Thanks for the assistance, guys. Now I've got some things to try.

Skidpics remember you dont just rename a page to PHP. You need to echo the html out or you will get a parse error.
