Hi,

You cannot remove the comment's within the files, but you are free to remove all visible notices or powered by.

For example, you can remove anything that states it's Xoops from the Meta tags, copyrights from the header and footer in your theme, any logo's or banners rtc, but you cannot remove the copyright comments within the PHP files or Themes from the author. That then would be a violation of the GPL.

Thanks, I just noticed this about 2 minutes ago.

Any idea when the ability to change the module weight will be added back into 2.5.4 or is there now another way to change the menu items (without going into the database)?

As you can see from these images, by adding another column for available blocks, you can copy these across into the positions easily:




If you select a modules (in this case Mylinks), only the mylinks modules are available for use and if you select the my links modules then only the blocks shown on the mylinks will show.

When you select anything else from the page menu (say to add a forum block onto the forum page) you lose the list of blocks from the module menu.

Just because this behaviour was in 2.4, doesn't mean you should have stuck with it when developing the this version.

This is not something new at all, other modules have been doing this for years.

You still get the same result, if I select the forum module and wish to place a block on the mylinks page.... you can't....

At least with the old version, albeit crudely, I could.

At the moment, it's a nice gimmick. With a lot more work it could be a nice addition to the core, but as it stands at the moment to me, it very unproductive and very unfinished.

Maybe you don't, but many of us do work like that.

@kris_fr,

Thanks, even though it's a hack... I would prefer this in the mean time...

Here is the reasons why I do not wish to use this and revert back to an older version of Xoops.

It's pretty buggy. When you select an item from the page menu, only the system blocks are shown within the modules menu. This means if I want to place a block there from a non system module, I cannot select it.

When you drag and drop an item, you move it, in reality we should dragging a copy of its self... This means, If I wish the same block to be shown on other pages, I still have to go into the edit properties and change it.... This means more steps taking up more of my time.

I still have to then assign group permissions after I move or if I want to change the title of the block/s and I have to swap from page to page to get what I need done.... before I could do all this from one page and one save.

There are other issues, but these two are the ones that concern me the most.

Edit: for clarity,

If I have the Mylinks module installed and I select that from the module menu, and I then select the Mylinks page, no blocks from that module will show up. Really, you need a separate column for displaying the blocks available for selection, rather than using the left hand side.

Thanks, but no thanks.

I will probably revert back to a version of Xoops that doesn't use tricks over productivity.

Thanks again,

Just installed 2.5.4 and I need to know Is there anyway I can revert back to the old Blocks Administration please?
