Abbington Mega Template [Support Thread]

[shags38]

I'll be happy to answer this question on the appropriate support thread for the Editable Home Page Centerboxes.. or the support thread for the Tabbed Home Page Modules (sorry..)

I am NOT hijacking the Abbington Mega Template support thread for a module related issue.. As I have stated previously MORE community members will benefit from the answer, not just the users of this template if the question and answers are posted in the RIGHT place.... (and that is NOT here)

Hint: if you search the Tabbed Home Page Modules support thread for "tpl_index_categories.php", you might find your answer..

Hello Diva,

Thanks very much for your response but I am now utterly confused - I have already posted this query in the 'appropriate' support thread, so do I now await your response? I have now read every post in the Tabbed Home Page Modules support thread and not found an answer - could be for two reasons, I do not have that module installed (unless of course it is included by default in this template) and secondly I am not a coder (the answer may well have been there but my limited knowledge of coding obviously did not recognize it), I am just a very simple man of 60 years of age trying my best to make websites for my own purposes and sometimes, make that often, I need help and this is one of those occasions. I do try very hard to work by the rules in here so if I do 'stray' then some tolerance would be appreciated.

So with all banter aside, can you help me? ........... in the appropriate support thread of course.

cheers,
Mike
p.s. I know it is not the normally accepted protocol to 'double post' however because I am so confused as to where I should be posting on this subject I have posted this also in the 'Editable Home Page Centerboxes' support thread.
p.p.s. note that the version I am using is ......... Editable Home Page Centerboxes - Version: 1.1

How about some PATIENCE?? I was a little tied up, and I gave you a HINT where to find your answer in the meantime..

You posted a question (in the right place thank you) Glenn answered you.. and apparently you still need more information.. so you post here to get more information instead of replying to Glenn???

Diva - please read Glenn's response and particularly the last line which I took to indicate take it now to this person - how would you interpret it?

Perhaps you did not merge something correctly; someone familiar with both the middlebox and template code would have to look at that.

hence posting in here where 'both' people read the thread with the delusional thought process of maybe one of them may be able to help - I haven't had a response from Anne yet so maybe she will be kind enough to offer her assistance about a non-template issue affecting how her template works or does not work with a plugin suggested by others in this forum. If not then I will trouble Glenn again ... now would that be with the same question which he has answered or would I need to rework the same question so as to make it appear different?

It is becoming (sorry, read has become) obvious you do not wish to help me but are more interested in who is right and who is wrong, ultimately who is in control - you win.

kindest regards,
Mike

p.s. as you responded to me in here and not in the appropriate support thread I have responded to you in this inappropriate support thread
p.p.s. speed reading has its flaws right?

Hello Anne,

if you have not already would you please read the posts by me (and also the responses from Diva) in respect to the problem with getting the Editable Home Page Centerboxes to work correctly with this template, or maybe more accurately, assess where I may have made an error.

I wondered if you might assist me to resolve this problem.

many thanks,
Mike

**sigh**

Gonna say this again.. this has really nothing to do with THIS template.. The Editable Home Page Centerboxes module works just fine out the box on ANY well written template (which this is..) Something has gone wrong with your install and part of the problem is that another add-on that comes bundled in with this template (Tabbed Home Page Modules) modifies the same files as Editable Home Page Centerboxes. The code from these two add-ons needs to be merged. I have asked you multiple time to use the support thread where you can get help with this because the issue is NOT an issue with this template at all.. For whatever reason you DO NOT want to do this and have labeled my request to move this discussion to the proper support thread as a sign that I do not want to help you... **shrugs**

If you want help with the Editable Home Page Centerboxes add-on, both Glenn and I have responded to your posts in it's support thread.. If you don't want to TRY and work out the issue you are having with Editable Home Page Centerboxes in the place where EVERYONE who uses Editable Home Page Centerboxes goes to for support, then I'm not sure what to do.. I won't hijack this thread ANYMORE to discuss support for this module.. I WILL help you if you take this discussion over to the Editable Home Page Centerboxes support thread.. (as I have said repeatedly I would.. **shrugs**)
