Easy Action! (supported version)

[ForumMonkeys]

ForumMonkeys (http://www.forummonkeys.com) recently acquired vBmode, who offered this free vBulletin skin to the public. As the new owner of vBmode, I'd like to continue doing so. Why the new thread then? I was told by an admin here that I cannot take ownership of that thread, so this is my only option. The original thread is located here:

https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=129204

This is a free vBulletin skin product from VBMode.com (http://www.vbmode.com) and BulletinSkins.com (http://www.bulletinskins.com). The "vBulletin skin by..." link may not be removed - branding free licenses can be obtained at: BulletinSkins.com (http://www.bulletinskins.com) . This skin may not be redistributed without explicit, written permission.

Without further ado, I bring you Easy Action!

Demo:
Fixed Version (http://www.vbmode.com/demo/?styleid=17)
Fluid Version (http://www.vbmode.com/demo/?styleid=18)

ZIP contains:


Image set
Skin PSD
XML style files (Includes both fixed and fluid versions) (3.6.8)
LICENSE_and_instructions-VBM.txt with easy installation


Please click the install button if you use this style.

Thank you and enjoy!

Note: the former thread is *not* supported and the ZIP will *not* be updated. This is the new "official", supported thread.

Thanks for release, but the images are not inside the zip. The upload folder contains the source PSD file.

[ForumMonkeys]

Forehead smack. Updating in a moment.

[redslush]

I'm testing it out. But it looks like a lot of the images paths in the css point to the vbmod website instead of the local server. My test server is not on the net and a lot of the images did not show up. This is how I noticed the problem.

[Rickeo]

Could you possibly tell me how to add google ads below forum stats box :)

[Smiry Kin's]

Must say one off the most best free styles around. Shame i like my forums style to much, other wise i would use this option defo.Could you possibly tell me how to add google ads below forum stats box :)
just find the end off the code in forumhome.

Anyway you would provide the font to download?
Everything for this font is paid, and I'm not spending my money just to download a font to edit a logo.. otherwise I could just substitute the font. :P

[Andyucs]

Why are the images pointing to your site and also in css

not very good impression is it for a skin designer

i thank you for the free skin and will take time to visit your site

but this will be uninstalled from my forums now due to link back on images and css

i will leave marked as installed incase you correct this

[Booth]

Is there any way to get the latest 10 posts in the side column?

[Booth]

Argh! It doesn't work with blogs :(

[AndyA]

Nice style but I'm having problems getting my logo to show, at the moment your logo is shown at this url. http://www.vbmode.com/demo/easyaction/misc/logo.gif

Where do I go to change the url please ?

[Smiry Kin's]

look in the style options.

[AndyA]

I have been, but where exactly ?

[AndyA]

Found it, thanks.

[msvi007]

Can you tell me how I can move the log in box from the side to the top of the forum? Thanks.

[wrestlesomnia]

awesome, i think i love you :)

I have been searching for days, for a skin EXACTLY like this, kudos my friend.

[msvi007]

Is there any support on this???

[ForumMonkeys]

This is being corrected. See below.

I agree 100%. As the new owner of vBmode, I did not code this skin and I did not notice that it was coded with absolute paths back to vBmode, which is, to be blunt, ridiculous. I will be updating the archive soon. I am pretty sure I got all the absolute paths changed to relative paths.

The font used I believe comes with certain Adobe products. You can substitute it for many fonts. As suggested, Arial is a close cousin.

Is there any way to get the latest 10 posts in the side column?

If you can't get vBulletin's external.php functionality working for this, there's a couple of plugins here that will do the trick.

Argh! It doesn't work with blogs :(

I just noticed this too. Lots of hooks are missing. What really needs to be done is to scour the templates for these missing hooks and manually add them. Unfortunately, I can't find the time just yet, but it will be on the list.

[rickyreter]

fluid version says fixed?

[energetic]

Thanks for sharing :)

[ginoledesma]

The fluid version seems to be "fixed".

[edgecutioner]

hey I'm having a problem with tcat.gif

i want to change the color of it so i have done a tcat from scratch by using Photoshop, then I uploaded it. my style wars are ok. my only problem is, tcat.gif is pointed from vbmode demo forum :(

[powerspike]

Hi in the archive, the Fixed and Fluid files are the same, the fluid version is showing fixed when imported, and the style is also fixed.

Edit : worked it out, under style vars, Main Table Width was set to 750, just change that to 90% or 95% and it'll fix it.

[ForumMonkeys]

Fixing now.

You are using an older version. The old version had absolute paths for some reason, which were changed back to relative image paths.

[Moncal]

I am really liking this style.

One question though. Do you require that the vbmode banner remain at the top or only the footer link?

[vistaku]

Anyone tell me where is the icon forum is LOCK i didnt see it

Thanks

[parash]

lets see how is this...

[ForumMonkeys]

Absolutely not. That banner is there just for example. You can use your own banners or remove the banners completely. The only thing that needs to stay is the tiny lack back vBmode in the footer.

[Lombardo]

Infact it doesnt matter.

[PKGDubber]

two questions i am hoping you can help me with:

1. I thought this would be easy enough but turns out i was wrong! Where would I be able to change the catagory strip height?

2. I put in some different catagory icons and it through off the alignment, is there something I can do to fix?

https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/external/2008/01/33.jpg

thanks! :up:

[obmob]

:( the postbit isn't the same as shown in the tests

Any chance to get that postbit template? :D

thanks for the nice and clean style!

2. adjust the size in forumhome_forumbit_level1_nopost

<if condition="$childforumbits">
<tbody id="collapseobj_forumbit_$forumid" style="{$collapseobj_forumid}">
<tr align="center">
<td class="thead" width="55"></td>
<td class="thead" align="$stylevar[left]">$vbphrase[forum]</td>
<td class="thead" width="30%">$vbphrase[last_post]</td>
<td class="thead" width="50">$vbphrase[threads]</td>
<td class="thead" width="50">$vbphrase[posts]</td>
<if condition="$vboptions[showmoderatorcolumn]">
<td class="thead">$vbphrase[moderator]</td>
</if>
</tr>
$childforumbits
</if>

The demo is using the Legacy Postbit. You can set this in Vbulletin Options under Style and Language Settings.

Is this completely updated now and worth downloading?

The published version is accurate. To answer a torrent of PMs (maybe you were asking the same question), this style will not updated to 3.7 until it goes Gold. It will probably take me a week or two to do so.:)

[jpapadpapa]

I am a bit of a newbie to changing styles. Can anyone tell me how to go about changing the color scheme from red? I was able to change the category strips (though they still have thin red borders on the top and bottom), but I cannot figure out how to change the main menu bar and the headers on the left.:confused:

[montsa007]

On my site ATM :)

[jpapadpapa]

On my site ATM :)
Pardon my dullness, but is this a joke? Or do you really have a website where you explain how to go about this? I think you're joking around...

At any rate, I found where all the code is and I think I can figure it out, as I am familiar enough with coding to do little things like this.

Another question, though...

Did this get updated to work with blogs? I don't have that feature currently, but we plan to add it in the near future and I want to know it will have that functionality before I get stuck on this design. Otherwise, I will choose something else.

It will work with blogs, but you may need to manually add the links and such.

[jpapadpapa]

Okay. I'm not sure exactly what you are talking about, since I haven't looked into blogs much yet, but hopefully it won't be too difficult/time-consuming?

[reddog64]

Will this work on 3.7 ???

[Sergioh]

I love this theme. I'm customizing it a lot though (doesn't even look like the original :P). How can I add the sidebar to the right and make it show on every page? Hopefully that's not much to ask but I'd really appreciate it. I'm a vbmode customer by the way. ;)

[unknowngiver]

hey
amazing style!
can you make it so it supports the VBadvanced portal
in the portal..the images wont work..and all the links wont work because they are linked as "site.com/usercp.php" etc..instead of "site.com/forum/usercp.php"
Thanks

[jpapadpapa]

I'm a bit of a newbie. I think when I installed this, I used the zip from the other thread because I am having issues when trying to change the banner at the top. It will not let me take out the vbmode link. I have a lot of mods I've added and I'm messed with the code a bit. How do I fix this problem without having to upload the updated style and start from scratch?:confused: Is there some simple solution that I should know about?

Only the one that's supported is updated. You're definitely best off installing the most recent style. I'm afraid that's best and only way to get you where you need to be.

[jpapadpapa]

Aghhh! I was afraid you'd say that.:( So, how do I make sure I do this right? Do I just go through all the code (in red that's been changed) and make sure I add in what I need to in the new style? And I guess I'd also have to re-install all my mods? Yikes. I wish I had known this earlier. I've tweaked this board so much!:(

[amaarvell]

a nice style indeed

I installed it on www.daft-jokes.com

and only have one question ... in the column on the left, in the partners section I changed the text and everything was fine ... however when i change the text so that it displays google and amazon links the header moves to the bottom of the box... any ideas?

the code started as ...


<table width="100%" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" style="border: 1px #616161 solid; margin-bottom: 8px;" >
<tr>
<td class="nav">Our Partners</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td class="thead"></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td class="alt2" style="padding: 5px;" ><strong><a href="#">Your Link Here</a></strong><br />
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetuer adipiscing elit. In eu augue sit amet arcu ullamcorper vulputate.<br />
<br />
<strong><a href="#">Your Link Here</a></strong><br />
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetuer adipiscing elit. In eu augue sit amet arcu ullamcorper vulputate.<br />
<br />
<strong><a href="#">Your Link Here</a></strong><br />
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetuer adipiscing elit. In eu augue sit amet arcu ullamcorper vulputate.</td>
</tr>
</table>
and was changed to open an iframe to show as ....


<table width="100%" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" style="border: 1px #616161 solid; margin-bottom: 8px;" >
<tr>
<td class="nav">Google Links</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td class="thead"></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<iframe
src ="/sidegoogle.html"
width="100%" height="635">
</iframe>
</tr>
</table>
any help you can give would be appreciated

[emdee]

hi,
newbie here...

could you please tell me what to edit, and what the exact code is, and where to enter it, so that only the font size for the thread title and body of the post are a bit larger, say 12 or 13.

right now its too small.

if i increase it in the "<td>, <th>, <p>, <li> " section of Main CSS, it increases some other items also.

thanks

[ForumMonkeys]

This skin has been updated for vB 3.6.9. :)

[momo2]

thanks for the update... Can you please leave me a code how to remove the left side or put all the whole What's going on? move to the left block ?

[emdee]

[digitalnorte]

Please.. please


thanks
:)

Will be great !
It?s a sweety skin, will look pretty for 3.7 gold :D
please Update , thanks in advance.

best regards

[ForumMonkeys]

To answer the questions and PMs, this skin will be updated to 3.7x. There are a half dozen "paid" skins that need to be recoded from scratch that customers are waiting on. I have to get those taken care of before I tackle this skin :(

[jpapadpapa]

If it's possible, can you give an estimate on when you will have this updated for 3.7.x? The reason I ask is that I thought it was updated already and so I upgraded my site. (Oops!) So, now I am missing some functionality. If it will be updated fairly soon, I will wait. Otherwise, I need to come up with an alternate plan.
