Pagebuilder-How to move blocks from 1 page to 2nd?

I want to move few blocks from account and profile page to a new page. Only option i get is rss block and html block. Any idea how to drag those blocks to a new page?

I know at some point a couple of people are most likely going to suggest my Block Tools mod to you to do that.

But chances are it will not copy all of the blocks you want.

There is a reason why you don't see all the blocks on every page. over 90% of the blocks in dolphin are designed for the page they were written for and cannot be copied to other pages. Thus the reason they are not in the page builders.

If you had a mod such as my PHP block for page builders mod installed you would also have a PHP block available. You would also see that some of the blocks in dolphin are actually php blocks, and some of them can be copied. Not very many of them will copy and still work as they should.

There are a number of mods in the market that can allow the creation of php blocks.

That friends timeline has php code in the block that can be put in another php block.

The only problem you will run into is figuring out the member id to pass in the code. Your custom page is not going to have the support code needed to get that id as it is passed to the php service call.

Only solution i found is add account home block in the navigation menu instead of service menu and rename the account home block and remove extra block from it. So i can get the Friends timeline on separate page without any thing along it.

A module like this one. http://www.boonex.com/m/Add_PHP_Block_to_Page_Builders_ which is free.

That will add php block ability to the page builders. Once thats done you will be able to click on the friends time line block and see the php code that is in that special block(which is technically a php block) which will allow you to copy it and put it in another php block on a different page.

The ability to work with PHP blocks is going to be needed for you to do what you want to do.

But as i mentioned, even after you have the php code you need, you will still need to come up with code to obtain the member id to be passed to the service call.

You need to keep in mind that the account page is designed to be viewed only by the logged in member. Not for the public. So the service call that populates that block is designed with that in mind.

Deano knows Dolphin inside and out; so his advice is something to pay attention to.

Perhaps you should ask for more specific information on what you want to accomplish in a separate post.

There are ways to get the needed bits and pieces of information you need to pass along to the code and we might can help with building the block you want on the page.  As Deano stated, you can grab the code from the block once you can see it with the mod he mentioned.

 Thanks for the module. I agree with you cause Friends Timeline block is linked to member.php ,
