PowerBoard 1.0 released! You can download component PowerBoard from the Elxis Directory (https://www.elxis.org/index.php?option=com_mtree&task=viewlink&link_id=99&Itemid=138)

Thanks to all the people that helped created this component.

Don't forget that you can always find easily the latest software available for Elxis directly from your site's administration panel.

Just go to Tools -> updiag -> new releases.

First of all I would like to give my congrats to all the people who are involved in this project for this elegant component.

Also I want to inform the developers about something I have found.

User use
1. The editor doesn't recognize the typical "enter" from the keyboard.
2. The editor doesn't recognize the
Code: [Select]
</br>
Administrations use
1. The pagination of the category list doesn't work.
2. Neither does the filter of how many categories show up on the list (5,10,15,20,25,30,50).
3. In the Integration -> Profile Settings -> Profile, if you select "Elxis", the "profile.gif" icon in the front-end doesn't show up.

I will let you know if I find anything else, and I am at the developers' disposal for any questions.

Elxis FAN.

Thanks for your kind words. Here are the replies to your questions.

Frontend
1. Of course does not work as you write inside a text area. Enter meens line brake. Click submit!
2. Editor does not accept html but only BBcode. Use [ br ] (without space) or line breaks.

Backend
1,2. It works. If you have subcategories things are diferrent than those you are used to...
3. Avatar integration is for Elxis 2007+ which has user's avatar support not for 2006.4.

Datahell, thank you for your response.

Also here is my answers.

Fontend.
1 & 2 my point is the same. The beak line doesn't work if you simple press the enter, and the tip inside the editor about the BBcode it is wrong here is a screenshot.

Backend.
1 & 2 Please let me to have my rejections, I test in 2 online installations and other 3 local.

The structure is the next:

General
|_ Information
|_Something

Salling
|_Boat
|_Yathc
|_Marine

Offroad
|_Auto
|   |_4x4
|   |_SUV
|
|_Moto
   |_Cross

Etc. the forums has more than 10 main & subcategories.

I am not responsible for the translation... The right one is [ br ] (without spaces). Enter key does not enter html [ br ] 's but new line (\n) like in this forum!

About the categories: You don't understand. In your example the categories that sees the page navigation system are 3! It can not split a category in two because what will display in the next page?

About the BBcode.
In the BBcode explanation page there is no instruction for how to enter a breakline or a new line.


As I have try to explain before, the pagination doesn't work.

The typical pagination from the Global Configuration is set it in "50".
The pagination in the categories list is "10".
In the bottom of the list the pagination say:
Code: [Select]
<< Start < Previous  1 2  Next >  End >>
Results 1 - 10 of 18
I have enter more categories of this I can see in the limited list of the "10" results.

Here is the live headers after I select from the dropdown menu "display #" to 50:
Code: [Select]

This is a beta (test version) if you read it. Some things have not yet completed and this is why you may face some problems using PowerBoard although there are no serious ones (i.e read posts indicator and lines wrapping issue). I wont write here in details all the project's roadmap in order to give you complete answer. These issues are discussed between the PowerBoard team members. When that team release the stable version you wont have any problems.

I know from the begging that the PowerBoard is beta.

And I didn't ask for help me to solve this issue, just I post that I found, and I thought to share with  the developers' & the PowerBoard team members.
