Download attached file and load it to your forum root.

Replace all 4 images from imageshack in the script with your own HTML content.

Hey BD I am trying to get pagination to work with http://thetwoworldsforum.com/index.php?page=changelog

I am looking at this thread and not sure if it works with my portal page...

It should work on all portals  :o

It does but I am trying to understand what you mean by "Replace all 4 images from imageshack in the script with your own HTML content."

I am not using images for those, so instead I will using it for this :http://thetwoworldsforum.com/index.php?page=changelog

to cut down into paginations.

It's a BBcode page.

Gotcha.


You would have to take out the image tags section, and there you add your codes.


So page 1, take the image tags and add your own stuff.

page 2 the same thing.
page 3 the same thing.
#4
I am stumped...

Codes?

You mean like this:

page one I add this?
