Title: 2 Questions ...
Post by: brandy1j on October 21, 2006, 11:21:32 am
Hey guys
I have 2 questions...

1. Where is the RSS Feed? I thought SMF and/or TinyPortal had a feature for RSS or XML..? I looked at the admin panel and don't see it anywhere. I was on another forum and they have a feed for each board.. how do I do that?

2. How in the world do I get the Ad management to work? I tried using different codes and it doesn't show up. I got the header footer to work but the Ad thing just won't do it.

I have another question but I forgot.  ???
Thanks

With the RSS feeds, the only Mod I know of is http://mods.simplemachines.org/index.php?mod=376 which adds the icon to the forums. This mod works best with RC2.

The Ad Management Mod is a fickle beast, make sure you have the right package for the version of SMF you are running. If you have RC3 use this download: http://mods.simplemachines.org/index.php?action=download;mod=255;id=17760

And so forth.

You also need to make sure you turn on xml/rss feeds in your admin section under edti features and options

I'm getting this when I try to access the features and options...  

Fatal error: Cannot redeclare modifypaypalsettings() (previously declared in /home/secti4/public_html/forum2/Sources/ModSettings.php:338) in /home/secti4/public_html/forum2/Sources/ModSettings.php on line 363

I haven't tried to use it since trying to install some other mods.

I'm sure I have RC3 and Ad Management was installed prior to adding Tiny Portal then once that was added I just added the mod but it didn't work. Have tried to figure it out but...

Ad management is just screwed with Tiny Portal I think. I have tryed all configs short of rewriting all the pages and i can not get it to work either.

I have always just added a block with TP for my adverts.....

Thats what i had to do but its too time consuming adding different ads per page, etc., What do you think about the error message?

Ad Mod works fine with TP......the problem is that you need to install TP before you install other mods.

TP was installed then the other mods I already had only needed to be installed by pushing the install button and thats what I did.
The Ad feature worked before its just not doing anything since Tiny Portal.

Yeah I did that, I unistalled all of my mods before the fresh install of TP. Didn't work. So then I deleted the mods all together, reuploaded them, didn't work either.

I don't know about the error message, I would ask one of these other senior members or staff here at Hacks, they would know I am sure, they are all pretty good.
