[Perhaps this is not an issue anymore, nevertheless, here's my input due to thread]

So, my question - is the solution/workaround that you are (or anyone else is) looking for by far any chance similar to the one that is being implemented as a top-center area [Centered Multi-Block + (2) x RSS Feed Blocks] at the below referred URL (frontpage)?

You'll identify (2)pcs of top-center area RSS-Feed blocks being set visible at all pages (not just frontpage, but wherever you move at that particular site)

<URL> http://www.ec-clan.org

If yes, then please let me know by posting a reply, I'll put up with a HOW-TO for reaching that outcome/outlook as an implementation target.

In order to produce the seen incorporation of *Center Blocks* and (2) x *RSS Feed Blocks*, you should first download the following (2) pcs of packages;

Quote:

- *NSN_Center_Blocks_UNI_211.tar*
- *block-rdf.zip*

::: NOTE ::: PHP-Nuke 6.5.0 - 7.3.0 required to be installed

Quote:

* NSN_Center_Blocks_UNI_211.tar [instead of NSN_Center_4]

Q: What exactly is meant by pre-installation flow?
A: It should be understood as an installation stage related to;
### extracting both of the used packages ###
- *NSN_Center_Blocks_UNI_211.tar*
- *block-rdf.zip*
[DONE 1/3]
### modification & copy to web server ###
*NSN_Center_Blocks_UNI_211.tar* : performing all the necessary modification (please see README.txt)
*NSN_Center_Blocks_UNI_211.tar* : copying the needed content to web server
[DONE 2/3]
### modification & copy to web server ###
*block-rdf.zip* : performing duplication (copy) of RDF --> "RDF1" & "RDF2" (or similar ones)
*block-rdf.zip* : configuring both "RDF1" according to your personal preferences
*block-rdf.zip* : configuring both "RDF2" according to your personal preferences
*block-rdf.zip* : copying both the "RDF1" and "RDF2" to web server
[DONE 3/3]

In this case, as a result of performed copy procedures, we now have:
"RDF1" == block-rdf-clanbase-all.php

"RDF2" == block-rdf-clanbase-bf1942.php

Background Status (at this stage):
- *NSN_Center_Blocks_UNI_211.tar* has been installed and necessary files copied to webserver (ready to be used)
- both the "RDF1" and "RDF2" have been copied to web server (ready to be used)

FINAL TASK == ASSOCIATING THE *RDF(s)* AS PART OF *CENTER BLOCKS*

Pre-assumption : Site Admin wishes to install (2) pcs of *RSS Feed* blocks ("RDF1" and "RDF2") at the top-center area of *NSN_Center_Blocks_UNI*.

STEP#1 : Move to *PHP-Nuke Admin Panel* Area :

So, you're now at the *Center Block Administration Area* main window - please move to next stage by clicking the hyperlink *Center Block Top Configuration*
[the above hyperlink will provide a snapshot of STEP#2 related window]

STEP# 3 : Move to *Center Block Top Administration Area* :

Finally there... now, please set the *top center block* configuration parameters according to your target constraints. This requires first *uploading rdfs* into *center blocks* and thereafter settiing the proper parameters defining the *center blocks* outlook...
[the above hyperlink will provide a snapshot of STEP#3 related window and associated REAL LIFE CONFIGS...]

Now as soon as you've set your configs OK, then simply click *Save Settings* and you should be good to go! You should now have (2) pcs of independently working *RSS Feed* blocks instantiated as *Center Block* components.

Hope this helps.
