War3Source.com Recommended plugin for SMF
« on: January 02, 2015, 10:41:45 AM »
I recommend that SimplePortal to be installed as a addon for SMF.  There is a easy installation in the Admin > Main > Package Manager.

SimplePortal has a nice Shout Box that can be added, not like the old shout box we had.. but its still good.  It allows you to add many shout boxes if you want one for different pages and stuff.

Have you seen how our shoutbox was created?

Simple Portal plugin has its own shoutbox plugin side itself.

Plus, it would be nice to see the most recent topics on a front page for war3source.com  (Recent Topics of about 20 or so.. pretty awesome)

Creating a front page with SimplePortal is really easy, and you can add custom html / php code to it.

Plus you can make it where only certain members can see certain blocks on the front page if you ever wanted to do that.
