Hi,

I'm new to Xoops, so please forgive me if this sounds dumb!

It seems that some blocks can only appear in some places. For example, I noticed that the 'Polls' block can only appear on the top page (I use x2t theme, if that makes a difference). How can I change this behaviour, and add these blocks to whichever module I choose?

FOr example, I have a custom module in which I could like to display the poll box. Following posts on this site, I added a new module, which gave me a link in the main menu and a place to add the content. I also get a search and login box. However, I don't get a poll box. I can't enable it as when I select the custom module from the dropdown in the block admin, Poll is not even listed (tho it gets listed when 'Top Page' is being defined).

Thanks

Sumit.

You are selecting a filter and not setting block placements.

Edit the Poll block from the "Top Page" view and set it to be visible in the custom module as well.

Well, well, now that was simple, wasn't it! duh!

Thanks, I guess I should've tried harder!

BTW, I have a suggestion about the 'filters': when I modify any block, and the page reloads, can the filters be already set to the ones before? Like if I'm filtering blocks for 'Anonymous users', and I make a change and 'Submit', then when the form comes back, the filter is reset to 'Registered users'.

Great job guys!

Sumit.
