TinyPortal or ezPortal?
« on: August 26, 2013, 09:15:09 am »
What is the best portal to use while having the Gallery Pro?

Is the fact that ezPortal is owned by SMFHacks an advantage to use it instead of others?

I'm ignoring other portals like SimplePortal since it seems that they are not as good as TinyPortal...  Different opinions are welcome tho.

ezPortal would be the best since i have built in support for SMF Gallery Pro and my other paid addons and I still update it.

TinyPortal was my favorite still powers this website but does not seem like it is in development anymore
Simple Portal probably looks the best.

So TinyPortal is out!

To tell the truth, they all look to me very similar. My intention to implement a portal was:

- Give a better look to my site so it doesn't look that much as a forum
- Be able to give more focus to the Gallery with blocks and/or sliders and/or slideshows
- Give emphasis to Featured Topics (reviews, articles, etc)

I'm not sure what is possible and not with ezPortal but I will try to read as much as possible about it. I'm still not sure how it combines with the recent structure that I have since I pretend to maintain the image blocks that I have now (Recent Images and possibly Featured Images) and the ads (for which I use your Ad Management Mod).

Regardless all this, to implement a portal, I think I will use ezPortal since support will be much easier. Btw, should I register there?

Ok. I will register there since I think it's easier to ask for specific support if needed there.

Just one question. Is it easy to "turn on" and "turn off", ie, revert to previous look with no portal?

Yes it is easy to turn on and off. All blocks and columns can be controlled to be on or off.
