New block config not showing in ACP

[Dragonsys]

I am playing around with the Blog MOD Block, and I have created a .cfg file for it, and I have added the config options in Block Variables, but the options are not showing up in Portal Configuration, so i cannot makes changes to them. Is there any thing else I should have to change/edit to make them show?

here is what I have:

blocks/blocks_imp_blogs.cfg

Code: Select all

<php>sql_query($sql) ) {    message_die(GENERAL_ERROR, "Couldn't obtain weblogs information.", "", __LINE__, __FILE__, $sql);    $recent_blogs .= "No Blogs"; } else {    $recent_entries = array();    while ( $row = $db->sql_fetchrow($result) )    {       $recent_entries[] = $row;    }        foreach ($recent_entries as $current)    {       $recent_blogs .= "&raquo;" . "<a><b>";     // Entry Link       $recent_blogs .= $current['entry_subject'];                          // Subject       $recent_blogs .= "</b></a><br>n            ";                // End and html formatting         $recent_blogs .= "by <a>";    // User Link       $recent_blogs .= $current['username'] . "</a> on ";                     // User Name       $recent_blogs .= date("D M j, Y g:i a",$current['entry_time']);                  // Post Date       $recent_blogs .= "</b></a><br><br>n            ";               // End and html formatting    }           if($portal_config['md_blogs_style']){             $style_row = 'scroll';         }else         {             $style_row = 'static';         }           $template->assign_block_vars($style_row,"");      $template->assign_vars(array(    'RECENT_BLOGS' => $recent_blogs,    'YOUR_BLOG' => $userdata['user_weblog']    )    );     }    } } imp_blogs_block_func(); ?>

When I tried to change the .tpl file I get errors, since I cannot set these options in the ACP, so for now, the .tpl file has not changed.

not sure if the two are related or not, but it seems since I updated the forum either to phpBB2.0.19, or the secrurity update, I have had to delete the cache in ACP/IM Portal every time I make a change of this nature. Im not sure which update is responsible as I did them both at the same time

That worked. Thanks!

ok, now they show in the Block Variabales page, but they do not show in the Portal COnfiguration page. So I cannot make any changes to the block...

Ok I got this. I had to add the variables to the portal_config table in the DB
