    Post by Mona Thu 14 Aug 2008 - 20:32

    Hi. I want to place a link to a HTML page from my portal. What I am looking to do is this....I have memberships on webrings and each requires a banner link back to them. I don't want to have them all on my portal and would much rather have a link on my portal to redirect to an HTML page that displays all the webrings. Something like a link that says WEBRINGS that once clicked on will redirect them to the HTML page I created. I made the HTML page but I can't figure out how to get the clickable link on my portal. Can this be done? If so, how?


    Thank you.

    Can I have a link to your website to see what you are talking about so I can get a better idea of what you mean.

    No..its in the right place. So, your saying you want to make a hyperlink to the html page you created on your portal? If thats the case.

    Admin panel>>Modules>>Portal Management>>Structure>>Create New Block.

    Then name it, click on the "A/a" button at the top right corner, and put this in the descrption.

    <a href="The Webrings html page URL here">Your Text for the link here</a>

    Then click the "A/a" button again, and hit save.

    Nice to find something that you can finally answer with fun!
    Okay, I don't know how much you already did, but here is my solution for everything in your request!

    1. Create a new html page at your forum what you use for all your webring buttons.
    You make it by going to
    Admin Panel --> Modules --> HTML pages management --> Create a new HTML page.
    So, now you make a new HTML page and I advise you to choose your boards header and footer (click on "yes"). The blank field can you fill with your Webring buttons. I'd do it like that:
    Code:
    <center><p><b>Webrings(or however you want to title it)</b></p><</center>
    <br> (this codes makes line breaks, dunno if you know that)
    <br>
    <br>
    <code of your button>
    <p>Brief description of the webring</p>
    <br>
    <br>
    <code for next button>
    Go on with that.

    2. Now you need something to put your link in at the portal. If you have a block with "Affiliates" make a button and put it in the block. Alternatively you can post the link to your HTML page into your "Navigation" block.

    • 2a Making a button for the Affiliates block and add it:
      Take any picture programme you like (paint.net, photofiltre, photoshop) and make a button the color and size you like. Put something like "Click here to see our Webrings" in the button. When you're done upload it somewhere (eg your servimg account)
      Now you go to
      Admin Panel --> Modules --> Portal management --> structure --> Your affiliates block
      There you add
      Code:
      <a href="The URL of your HTML page of step one (the one with your webring-buttons)"><img  src="The URL of the button I just told you to make" /></a>
      And that's all. Click on "save" and you have what you wanted

    • 2b Post a link to your "Navigation" block:
      After you made your HTML page you go to
      Admin Panel --> Modules --> Portal management --> Structure --> Your "Nabvigation" block
      There you add
      Code:
      <br>&nbsp;<a href="URL of your HTML page you made in step one (the one with your webring-buttons">The name the link should have, something like Our Webrings</a>
      This code has to be added before the
      Code:
      </span>
      When you did that click on "save" and you're done


    This is what I can offer. Choose one of the two ways.

    Glad to hear that.

    If you'd edit the title of the topic to something that summs up what your question is. So people who do a research can find it.
