View Full Version : Can I use a 3.5.4 skin on 3.6.5?

I have vBulletin 3.6.5.

Finding / getting a decent on topic skin has been a nightmare. I posted it as a project on elance and the only response tried to switch me to another forum script! Other vbulletin sites want to charge me to post it as a project.

So I have found an off the shelf skin I want to use but it was designed for 3.5.4, can I use it on my 3.6.5 board? If so, I have bought an unbranded version of it anyway (did not realise the possible version problem) and want the logo and certain (only a few) colors changed. Is there anywhere that does this?

Please help. The nightmare of putting VBSEO over vBulletin (VBSEO's test.php script did not warn me the php was not late enough to support the Ironcube version they required so I have had to change servers which then clobbers my other scripts) is nothing in comparison to the headache I am having getting a decent skin for what I would have thought was a common forum subject.

:confused:

There were quite a lot of changes in templates, so I doubt it would work.

If you have the original graphic files someone can create the additional buttons and create a new 3.6.5 style based on the old one, for sure.
Its time consuming but it works.

you need a graphics and html coding expert

Or you could just look at the template edits that were made from 3.5.4 to 3.6.5 and do them manually to the old file...this is what i normally do for my styles...

if you'd like some help with that...PM me and I'll take a look at how many templates you need updated...and if it's only like 5-6 i'll do it for you.
