Xenforo headers and footers around PhotoPost

jdougher · August 19th, 2012, 05:25 PM

I'm testing out PhotoPost on a Xenforo installation. The PhotoPost script installed okay, but the Xenforo headers and footers are not there.

How do I get the Xenforo headers and footers around the PhotoPost script?

Thanks.

You would have to make some type of headers or footers you want around the gallery as you see fit and load those headers and footers in the global options.

We only support ENHANCED INTEGRATION with one forum and that is vbulletin. Xenforo we only support the style colors and user login as noted on our site under the features.

Rats. I somehow got the impression that you had finally added full xenforo integration. How do I add "some type of headers or footers" to the gallery?

Nope I wrote the integration I was able to write which is style color and login.

There was no special function or anything I saw that just printed xenforo headers footers when I dealt with that product.

I have always maintained the position if they released information how to wrap there header footer around some basic php then we could look at including some type of ability to load them.

You can load whatever html you want as a header and footer through admin edit header edit footer once you set the server paths to such files in global options as I noted in my last post. That is how anyone has to do it in the program that does not use vbulletin.

Any chance of letting us know what code to enter into the header and footer template so I can make my PP Gallery look a little like my Xenforo forum?

You would have to view the source of your page and look into that. I do not run xenforo.

However I think with xenforo if I remember right you would enter in the header and footers of photoost anything between the <header> and </header> <footer> and </footer> tags from your forum source. Xenforo I think shows you the header and footer in the page source like that. Your header and footer html is show inbetween those tags which makes it easy for you to copy and paste into other page header footers to make things show like you want.

Depending on what your header and footer code is you might need to enter some stuff in a headtags file for any code you want to add between <head> and </head> tags.

No idea if this is all you need since I do not use that forum but looking at your page source

HEADER

Code:

Content visible to verified customers only.

FOOTER

Code:

Content visible to verified customers only.

That seems to work fine at the moment. Thank you very much

Only issue i'm having is that by entering a width in the PP admin > Layout Options the actual width of PP menu doesn't change.

Chuck S · December 26th, 2012, 05:36 PM

width of the ppmenu?

If you are trying to wrap the whole photopost in a width your layout options should be 100%

You would open a table in the header with a specific width and close it in the footer.

I just need the entire PP Gallery to be at 90% but not being a coder I can't remember how to go about it sorry.

end of your header

Code:

Content visible to verified customers only.

top of footer

Code:

Content visible to verified customers only.

Thank you. I now though (Before doing that edit) appear to have lost the ability to click those links in the PP menu. Not sure why it seemed to be okay before.

Neal-UK · December 26th, 2012, 09:47 PM

Ah it's due to a style i've added. Using the default style the menu can be clicked.

Chuck S · December 26th, 2012, 09:52 PM

yes you will need to go through and see what supporting things need to be added to a headtags file to make that style work. I see broken stuff looking at the header in your gallery.
