Re: punBB integration into site ... have a look

thanks for the comments.

Got to fix the bg on the headings in the forum. It's taking the style from the root .css. Needs a local one without that in ... something to keep me busy.

thanks

Re: punBB integration into site ... have a look

the page is huge coz I nicked the formatting from the gallery page - have to attend to that asap.

"that is the main.tpl that you are editing?to add the header and footer to it?" by quaker - yeah, all the stuff to put it into the site is using the main.tpl

footer shouldn't be that big (I think 30px) ... so I've done something to that particular page and missed it. Going to correct it this weekend.

hey guys, thanks for all your useful comments ... didn't expect that. ta.

Re: punBB integration into site ... have a look

forgot to say that ... to add the gallery2 integration I had to modify the footer.php. The required code would not execute in the main.tpl.

Re: punBB integration into site ... have a look

it was fairly straightforward ... I installed a module called "imageblock", from Gallery2, and this allows remote calling from another page outside of the gallery. It even tells you how to do it (1 line of php, that it provides you with) - you can set referrer so that only your site can link. Just slotted that in ... in the main.tpl (template) it doesn't get executed so I had to put it in the footer ...

the call statement reads like:

"<? php @readfile('http://www.yoursite/window-tinting-gallery/main.php?g2_view=imageblock.External&g2_blocks=randomImage&g2_show=title'); ?>"

I put four of them in a table and it worked a treat.

In the footer.php it goes inbetween the last /div and before the //End the transaction

hope this helps

Re: punBB integration into site ... have a look

nice. where's that script?

gallery2 also has lightbox integration .. but to be honest, gallery2 is a bit bloated .. something leaner would be a good alternative at times.
