#1 Posted on: 2004/7/23 15:51 Start page module w/custom block below?

I have my start page module set as the FAQ. I have a cusom block "Welcome" that shows only on the TOP page and displays above the FAQ.

Tried everything I could think of but can't seem to place the custom block below the FAQ.

Is this possible?

you may have to edit your theme.html, what theme are you using?

You can see in your theme.html that blocks are rendered first, beggining at


<!-- Start center-center blocks loop -->

and content comes after centerR and centerL blocks. So if all you want is to have contents before blocks, move things around and you're set.

But if you just want to have this particular block after the content, you can do it like this:
First, in center-center blocks, you don't render you FAQ block:


<!-- Start center-center blocks loop -->

                  <{foreach item=block from=$xoops_ccblocks}>

                  <{if $block.title != "FAQ_BLOCK_NAME_HERE"}>

                  <table cellspacing="1" cellpadding="5">

                    <tr> 

                      <td class="blockTitle">&nbsp;<{$block.title}></td>

                    </tr>

                    <tr>

                      <td class="blockContent"><{$block.content}></td>

                    </tr>

                  </table>

                  <{/foreach}>

                  <{/if}>

                <!-- End center-center blocks loop -->

Then, render it below contents:


<div id="content">

              <{$xoops_contents}>

            </div>

                <!-- Start FAQ block loop -->

                  <{foreach item=block from=$xoops_ccblocks}>

                  <{if $block.title == "FAQ_BLOCK_NAME_HERE"}>

                  <table cellspacing="1" cellpadding="5">

                    <tr> 

                      <td class="blockTitle">&nbsp;<{$block.title}></td>

                    </tr>

                    <tr>

                      <td class="blockContent"><{$block.content}></td>

                    </tr>

                  </table>

                  <{/foreach}>

                  <{/if}>

                <!-- End FAQ blocks loop -->

          </td>

I'm sure there's a better way to render a single block... I wish I knew it

Thanks ajaxbr.

I tried Quote:

So if all you want is to have contents before blocks, move things around and you're set.

And that does exactly what I wanted.

I'm to sleepy to make out the rest but I'm beginning to get a handle on all this. I'll try it out later.

Thanks again.

OK, I am stupid and can't even read the language in this theme.

This theme is blob_taste.
I would like to place may newbb recent post under "Articles" mod with a custom Welcome block at the top.
A little help. Please.
