I'd like to setup a centerblock without displaying a title about it. Is that possible without having to hack anything, and if so, how?

As the plugin exists right now, I think the answer is no, you cannot create a staticpage without a title for use as a centerblock.

Anyone else have any ideas?

This wouldn't be terribly difficult to hack, but it would require modification of the plugin.

Thanks. I figured as much, but wasn't sure.

Just applied your 1.3.3 fix. Will be trying it out in a minute. Thanks a lot.

Ok, I did find a way to do what you are looking for. You can change the 'in_block' option in your staticpages config.php file. This should hide the titlebar, however it will do so for all staticpages.

Alternatively, you could change the lines in functions.inc that read

Text Formatted Code

            if (($_SP_CONF['in_block'] == 1) && !empty ($spresult['sp_title'])) {
                $retval .= COM_startBlock ($spresult['sp_title']);
            }
 

to something like
Text Formatted Code

            if (($_SP_CONF['in_block'] == 1) && !empty ($spresult['sp_title'])) {
                                if($spresult['sp_title'] == 'HIDE ME')
                                        $retval .= COM_startBlock ('');
                                if($spresult['sp_title'] == 'HIDE ME')
                                        $retval .= COM_startBlock ($spresult['sp_title']);
            }
 

I think, that would allow you to set your block title to 'HIDE ME' and it would have an empty title bar. (I think) This would only affect centerblocks...

Of course, that is certainly a hack....

Yup. Very nice. I am really getting to love PHP and Geeklog. Here is the final code I ended up with:

Text Formatted Code
if (($_SP_CONF['in_block'] == 1) && !empty ($spresult['sp_title'])) {
                  if($spresult['sp_title'] == 'none') {
                     $retval .= COM_startBlock ('');
                  } else {
                     $retval .= COM_startBlock ($spresult['sp_title']);
                  }

 


Thanks so much for your help. After so many days of getting nowhere, it is an amazing feeling to finally have learned something!

there is an option in the staticpage editor to not wrap the staticpage in a block. uncheck that and the title will go with it.
