I like it and installed it but on my photopost and vbadvanced pages the theme is not working correctly (missing the images in the header and footer)

How do I fix it or do I have to upload the FH_Faddah_F folder to both of the other area's image directories?

[Pete C]

Another great theme egtrix - I really like your fluid styles. We'll be using this on a new venture currently under construction.

Many thanks - keep up the excellent work!

Mntsnow, glad that you like it :)
As for the photopost, this means that photopost folder is not placed under the vBulletin folder, so to correct this problem all you have to do is to edit the header and the footer template and change all the image paths from:
images/FH_FaddaF/ImageNae.gif

to

http://www.YouDomainName.com/vBulletinFolder/images/FH_FaddaF/ImageNae.gif

ofcourse substitute "YourDomainName" with you domain name and so the "vBulletin Folder"

As for the vbAdvanced problem, copy the CMPS index file under your vBulletin directory and that's it.

[egtrix]

Belder, many thanks for your support and glad that you like it :)

[Mntsnow]

Thanks.... I did the edits (whew...alot of image links :) )

just wondering but is there a way to use "custom call" (dont know what to call it) in this situation where it would be something like

[vbforumurl]/images/whateverstylefolder/nameofimage

that would fix it with a heck of a lot less editing and would make the theme style more friendly?

[egtrix]

I know what you mean, but for photopost (from what i know when it was called vbagallery) that it's installed outside forum folder, so in the case, the forum home for photopost will still be http://www.domainname.com/galley and not www.domainname.com/forums and that's what causes the problem and not the header code :)

[Mntsnow]

Ahhh.....I see what you mean now.....Below is what I was thinking...

$vboptions[bburl]/ images/whateverstylefolder/nameofimage

[SMO]

man, i liked that when it was fixed for 3.5 and i love it even more now that it's fluid.

Id love to see some "dark" styles from you as well. I really like your header work especially

[egtrix]

Ahhh.....I see what you mean now.....Below is what I was thinking...

$vboptions[bburl]/ images/whateverstylefolder/nameofimage
Yes that was to be ok with any other plugin but photopost :)

SMO many thanks :) I will be releasing some dark skins soon :)

[desiforums]

[egtrix]

Thank you desiforums :)

Man this is an awesome Style!! I cannot wait to install it. A question I have is...how hard would it be to add my 468x60 banner to the left of the google ads or possibly to the center of the screen in the area just below the advert area?

To me this is the best stye I have seen so far and I have been searching everywhere!! Kudoz...

[egtrix]

The Bish, many thanks for your post and I'm really glad that you like this skin :)
As for placing a banner beside the Adsense one, I'm afraid this is not possible as this will mess the html table and the site header won't look ok.

[zooki]

Its funny, i saw this long time ago, and dismissed it.. but, now that i have a news site, it is something pretty neat! thank you.

BTW, Fiddah is Silver in Arabic and not Faddah. Its ermm like saying Salver instead of Silver :)

I like this style, and i think it can suit many sites, just for me i think it is bit bulky.. just too heavy from the top. I wish there was streamlined version.

heh, i think you should make me one for the arabic correction ;) lol.

[ronoxQ]

Nice theme! Unfortunately, my forum won't show the cat_top_bg image. How do I fix that? (All other images work perfectly.)

[ronoxQ]

Bumpity bump bump.

lol, thanks zooki for your post and glad that you like it :) well Faddah means silver in Arabic (Egyptian Accent) and I will try to release a streamlimed version as soon as possible :)

Can you please PM me with the URL for your forum

[RichieBoy67]

Great Style.

I am adding dropdowns for the search and some seo but besides that it is perfect!!!!

Thanks :)

[wi11ie1950]

Terrific Style. Thanks egtrix, I am impressed. It looks very nice :)

[egtrix]

RichieBoy67, very glad that you like it and looking forward to see the drop menus :)

wi11ie1950, many thanks and really glad that you like it :)

[wi11ie1950]

Hi egtrix, A question...
Is it possible to remove the gooogle adds totally from the header and footer ???

[o0Hubba0o]

Nice theme! Unfortunately, my forum won't show the cat_top_bg image. How do I fix that? (All other images work perfectly.)
I had this problem too, to fix you need to go the styles main css and scroll down to the additional CSS section and change this:
.cat-top {
padding: 0;
margin: 0;
background: url(images/FH_Faddah/misc/cat_top_bg.gif);
width: 100%;
text-align: center;
color: #004669;
font-weight: bold;
font-size: 11px
}

To:

.cat-top {
padding: 0;
margin: 0;
background: url(images/FH_Faddah_F/misc/cat_top_bg.gif);
width: 100%;
text-align: center;
color: #004669;
font-weight: bold;
font-size: 11px
}



There's also another one in that section that's wrong too:

Change this:
#footer {
background: url(images/FH_Faddah/misc/footer_bg.gif);
height: 40px;
width: 100%
}

To:
#footer {
background: url(images/FH_Faddah_F/misc/footer_bg.gif);
height: 40px;
width: 100%
}

[egtrix]

o0Hubba0o thanks for helping. I will release another version soon with a fix to this problem.

[wi11ie1950]

Is there a way to remove the google adsence altogether from the header and footer templates ???

[caco]

thanks

[egtrix]

wi11ie1950, thanks for your post :)
Yes open the header and footer templates and search for the Google code and just remove it. This won't affect the skin in anyway.

caco, you are always welcome :)

[yesfans]

Has a LOG OUT botton been added yet??

[egtrix]

[yesfans]

This problem exists at your forum because you are using the fixed skin version and not the fluid one that is in this thread. So please install the fluid one and the logout button will appear.

[yesfans]

Ok, new one. Go to my main page. www.yesfans.com asnd see my 3 main forum sections, the top of them is missing a bar in the middle, the grey area. I have the left and right part, but the middle is missing.

[egtrix]

Can you please PM me with the style's main CSS?

[Greek76]

Great skin but I cant seem to find the adsense in the header template or the marquee....

[egtrix]

Greek76 many thanks and really glad that you like it. They are both there but Google sometimes takes time to display it's ads or they won't show in the case that you have more than 3 Google ads in the same page :)

Thanks,

[helmlein]

Can somebody post the header template??

[yesfans]

I guess there is no fix. Funny thing is that it DID show at first then POOF like a fart in the wind it is gone!

[Super Jinni]

no fix?
how shame
it's a nice one.. and I began to like it..

[egtrix]

Thank you guys for your posts and sorry for the delay in answering them but I was out of business for a while after selling my website, and now i'm back and starting a new site. And I will make new releases for all the free skins again and I will start with both Faddah Style & Cairo Style which will be updated next week with such bug fixes.

[twincamfxd]

Any chance for a faddah style for 3.7.3? I love the style and have been postponing upgrading VB because I dont want to lose it. Thanks,

Matt
