How to re-size Deep Blue theme?

Client Joined: Feb 26, 2004 Posts: 115

I've posted over on nukecops and I made the change that was suggested but I didn't work. For some reason my forum is different than the defult theme, some things are underlined, the scroll bar is a different color, and various other little things. I originally started out with a osc2nuke program and then I decided to go with php-nuke but some of the problems have transfered over.

Everytime I try to make a simple change it seems that whatever has transfered over is killing me. I lost most my activity in my forums and been thinking of just starting over fresh but would hate to lose my forums post and members. With the osc2nuke program I did make changes in forum admin styles section and I was advised that might be where my problem might be

Quote:

as dezina said, the theme works fine. You obviously have changed something somewhere along the line that is causing you problems. You haven't by chance gone into the Forum Admin Styles section and modified the Forum style color and settings there have you?? You shouldn't have as that will definately mess things up.

Any suggestions?

Here is the thread about changing the position of the site.

Why don't you rename the modules/Forums adn themes/YOURTHEME/forums folder and then reload the forums folders from your distribution?

Down load from my site the version of nuke that you have. Then extract the files to your PC. Then, just ftp the folders from your PC.

After I reload the forums folder there is no change. I'm thinking of just starting over with just a message forum (phpbb) instead of the php nuke package, how would I go about doing that?

Have you tried restoring your default style in the forums admin?

Ok, help me to understand exactly what has happened that your forums/site are messed up. On another note, should you have to reinstall, you should not lose your posts. If they are phpbb then they will be still be compatable when you reinstall.

I made changes in the Forum Admin Styles section and modified the Forum style color and settings from what I've heard I shouldn't have as that will definately mess things up. I did this back when I have the osc2nuke setup.

So now the colors in the forum are messed up and some things are underlined when the should not be, just a bunch of little things. I think I just want to switch to just a basic forum and build from there. What files do I need to save in order to keep all post and member info? and how do I go about transfering that over to phpbb.

Backup your nuke_bbthemes table and then use phpMyAdmin and delete the subsilver theme from the table. Then, issue this command in the SQL window

Code:

INSERT INTO `nuke_bbthemes` VALUES (1, 'subSilver', 'subSilver', 'subSilver.css', '', '0E3259', '000000', '006699', '5493B4', '', 'DD6900', 'EFEFEF', 'DEE3E7', 'D1D7DC', '', '', '', '98AAB1', '006699', 'FFFFFF', 'cellpic1.gif', 'cellpic3.gif', 'cellpic2.jpg', 'FAFAFA', 'FFFFFF', '', 'row1', 'row2', '', 'Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif', 'Trebuchet MS', 'Courier, \'Courier New\', sans-serif', 10, 11, 12, '444444', '006600', 'FFA34F', '', '', '', NULL, NULL);

To match up your scroll bar colour to your main nuke theme, and anything else that needs tweaking, you can do that in overall_header.tpl

This is what I get when I try to delete the subsilver theme.

"You cannot remove the style selected since it is currently the forum default. Please change the default style and try again."

I'm I doing this in the right place?

Also I cannot change the logo in this theme or any other theme for that matter, is there a permission problem or something?

BTW disregaurd the subject about switching over just to phpbb, I will use phpnuke!

phpMyAdmin is not a part of nuke. It is available through your cPanel MySQL icon Smile

Ok I did that and it did reset the colors Very Happy

!!!! Your the man.

Now how do I fix the underline problem?

On the forum topics it will underline some catergories but not others, what could be causing that?

Posted: Sat Mar 27, 2004 4:57 pm

That's the default behavior of anchor tags. When you click on the link it will then be remembered and will be underlined. Is that the behavior you're talking about?

Oh ok that makes sense, just didnt notice that before.

Now what about the logo? I upload the new logo.gif to the theme I'm using but It wont update...

Posted: Sat Mar 27, 2004 5:04 pm

Depends on the theme. Not all use logo.gif. If yours does and you replaced it in the same directory, then try deleting your cookies and flushing your cache.

How do I flush my cache?

and when you mean deleting my cookies that by going to

tools-internet options-delete cookies

This is the path to the logo,

Ok I've did all that but the logo is the same, even tried deleting the logo.gif and then uploaded the new one, still the same phpnuke logo.

Posted: Sat Mar 27, 2004 5:51 pm

Then I don't believe the name and location can be correct. When you do a right mouse over the current logo, make sure that that is the path and filename that you are using.
