No, AutoBlocks are not "blocks", they are positions like left and right.

Not sure I follow this. Are you referring to theme.cfg having an entry something like this?
code:
$blocktemplate = array (
'Area2block' => 'banners',

Example: Assign Who's Online to Area1, then Who's online will display where you have <!-- [Area1-blocks] -->

Completely installed and Blocks are there. But to make sure I just uploaded it again.

It should at a minimum have <!-- [block-content] -->

Here is area1bocks.html code

Sounds like you didn't replace the blocks file.

also what is the content of area1blocks.html ?

It should at a minimum have <!-- [block-content] -->

#1 do you have an area1block.html?

#2 do you have any blocks assigned to Area1?

Try a capital A <!-- [Area1-blocks] -->

Tried that one already - no effect.
Took off the <! -- --> and [Area1-blocks] showed up in the right place
put <! -- --> back and nothing showed up and it should. the HTML file has Test area 1; Test Area 2, etc all over it for location marking - but the HTML insert is a no show on the rendered page.

Had already tried that - didn't work.
AutoTheme Config for FIBlack
code:
Templates
theme.html - Main
Table 1
Table 2
summary.html - Summary
0 - Use Alternating Summary?
summary1.html - Summary 1
summary1.html - Summary 2
article.html - Article
Block Templates
leftblock.html - Left Block
centerblock.html - Center Block
rightblock.html - Right Block
area1block.html - Area1 Block
bottom.html - Area2 Block

Relevant section from theme.html
code:
<table width="100%" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" align="center" height="100%"><tr>
<td valign="top"><!-- [left-blocks] --></td>
<td align="center" valign="top"><!-- [area1-blocks] --><BR /><!-- [center-blocks] --><BR />
<!-- [modules] --><BR />
</td><td valign="top" align="right"><!-- [right-blocks] --></td></tr></table>


[area1-blocks] does not show up on top of the web page as expected.
Replacing [area1-blocks] with the banners call as [banners] returns a banner on page load on line 510 (view source).
Changing [banners] call to the <!-- [area1-blocks] --> call injects nothing on line 510 of the compiled page.
As a test I removed <! -- --> and left [area1-blocks] - which rendered as [area1-blocks] on the page - not the block.
I don't understand why the addition is not being rendered. Have placed the FLBlack in the site downloads area for you to have a look at if you wish.

Thanks.
I really do appreciate that.

Now
your <!-- [area1-block] --> code should be <!-- [area1-blocks] -->

I don't think dl was from your site at all. I think it was part of a group of files dl from the Envolution site. However, I did check the your original and the online footers and noticed that the link to your site is not there. My appologies for that error. I think Adam or Jordan must have been at the graphics. I will see it gets changed back and that your link appears. In the meantime, your design has been taken offline with my appologies and Adm and Jordan get no Twinkies for a week.

If you check the current theme you will see credit given to designer (bottom left)

PN-726

Question:
Current theme - fiblack - looks like ported from nuclei - works well. The relevant existing theme.html code is:

code:
<td valign="top"><!-- [left-blocks] --></td> <td align="center" valign="top"><!-- [center-blocks] --><BR /><!-- [modules] --><BR /><BR /></td>
<td valign="top" align="right"><!-- [right-blocks] -->
</td>

I want a bottom block that will float below <-- modules --> as additions are made to news articles, etc.

code:
<td valign="top"><!-- [left-blocks] --></td>
<td align="center" valign="top"><!-- [center-blocks] --><BR /><!-- [modules] --><BR /><!-- [center-blocks] --><BR /></td><td valign="top" align="right">
<!-- [right-blocks] --></td>

The above test placed the center block below the news as desired.

Designed a suitable bottom block table that I want to hold 3 blocks of mod data - 2 up - 1 lower:
polls and who's online or other blocks as desired with banners below

Will <!-- [polls] --><!-- [banners1] --> place the right module data in this area or are different calls required, ie <-- $banner1 -->?

Saved as newly designed table as area1block.html with only css and table code. When I added it to the Theme.html
code:
<td valign="top"><!-- [left-blocks] --></td>
<td align="center" valign="top"><!-- [center-blocks] --><BR /><!-- [modules] --><BR /><!-- [area1-block] --><BR /></td><td valign="top" align="right"><!-- [right-blocks] --></td>

and loaded the theme - no bottom block appeared below the news.

Checked the Tutorials link that is in Forums but the links from the page are broken.

Assistance appreciated so I can finish the theme on this site

David
