Description of problem

I have a old test website i have codes on (Phpbb2) and I am trying to transfer my portal codes over to my new website (Invision). The portal codes aren't working because I think they aren't compatible because of the version, so I would like to know how to convert my codes so they are compatible to work on my new forum.

Server?

Lol my apologies I ment "website", sorry I'm using discord a little to much lately. I did edit the first post just now.

What kind of codes: CSS, JavaScript, HTML, etc.?

hello

if you are referring to javascript then you can search here the tutorials and switch the code cause every tutorial has all versions included

if you're talking about CSS codes or editing templates then you must open one question per thread in order to help you

Yes all the above, I don't want to release my codes publicly so I will like to DM you and show you what I have in private. I will dm you in a moment.

I looked at your tips and tricks page and I don't see what tutorial you're referring to, unless I've looked over it by accident.

@izel poole what @skouliki means is that if the codes that are not longer compatible came from a tutorial here on the support forum, by going back to their tutorials you should be able to find the analogous version for the other forum versions

while if the codes were custom-made by you, we may need you to share them to understand if a compatible version for the new forum version can be done or not

I understand you, but the codes i need converted came from a friend I played yugioh yeaaaars ago. We coded a yugioh forum years ago and i losted contact with the person. Idk if they made the codes or not themselves so.. I Pm the admin SLGray about it and I'm just waiting for a response patiently. I still want the codes private tho.

We dont provide help via private messages iam afraid

Yeah I can see, but I just don't want my codes for public veiw.

Those are forumotion general rules

I read the general rules. https://help.forumotion.com/t93820-general-rules I don't see the part with where staff are forbidden to keep personal codes private. I want to keep my personal codes private prevent the "stealing" etc. I plan to pay for my own copyrights after my forum is finished tho. Right now I'm awaiting approval for help with this topic. I already reached out to an Admin about this.

You can post the codes then edit your post to remove them when your issue is solved.

yes sir but I just need these specific codes to be confidential. In the past i experienced people copying my work then stealing members from me. I just rather be safe than sorry, granted the fact I've noticed a uptick in traffic on my forum despite me having to market out my website yet. Probably because I'm posting here publicly. I should've been more clear about this before hand so all of us can have a understanding of what I mean. But thats the reason why I don't show my codes i have publicly.

Just for public record.

@wizard king I understand your point, but please also keep note that the javascript codes that you add on your forum are easily downloadable from anyone without any problem. I could download all your javascript codes by myself, but I don't know which ones you are referring to, so I cannot really help you.

Also, you can post them within the HIDE BBcodes, so that only who replies to this topic will be able to see it

Code:

[hide]CODE HERE[/hide]

That's actually a good idea, granted the fact staff can remove the codes they send me as well.

I'm going to try out what you said.

I just ask all staff that helps me to please use HIDE BBcodes as they help me with the codes, and remove the codes from the post after its solved. This will help prevent others from copying me and stealing my members I earn. the codes are below.

1) this goes into my portal structure



2) this code goes below the first one



also this is the size of my new forum https://i.servimg.com/u/f21/20/50/76/58/forum_10.png

I need those phpbb2 codes to work on invision. I got faith you guys can do it and make it work.

these are the screenshots of the issue I see on my end. everything looks messed up. too big, vertical not horizontal etc.

Hi,

Is it possible for you to post a screenshot of what you previously had working on Phpbb2. Thank you.


Just notice they were posted. Let me see what I can do for you. I'll re-edit this post.


Ok, so I went ahead and remove that "Right" for you on your slideshow.

Code:

<span class="right">Right</span>

It'll look like this:

Code:

<span class="right"></span>

Look for this code on the first code you provided and remove the text between the span class ("Right"). That will get that text removed and it won't display without interfering with the span class.


Let me work on the rest, that way it can display just like you had on Phpbb2

Thanks sir Chivas, I'll be hanging around.

Sorry about that sir.  but the good news is i ended up fixing the issue of the bottom myself after playing with the codes some more. The topic is solved for me. but thanks to sir chivas for the edit of the slideshow, vip in my book for that.
