Shine, one of my more popular themes, has been upgraded, and re-designed a bit, for 3.7.2. Shine offers you -
A built-in left side column
separated forum categories
Valid XHTML 1.0 TransitionalLIVE DEMO (http://www.themesbydesign.net/forums/index.php?styleid=90)


Installation Instructions -
Click on the "Install" button on the right of this post, then download the zip file to your computer and extract it (I put it on my desktop, it's easier to remember where I put it!).
Open your ftp client to your server. Go to your forum's images folder, open it, and create a styles folder.
Next, upload the Shine folder via FTP to your server, into the styles folder, so that your image path is images/styles/shine/buttons, for example.
After you've uploaded the folder, open your admin control panel on your forum, and import the xml file, by going to Styles & Templates > Download / Upload styles > Import Style XML File.
Click on the Browse button, locate the xml file for shine, and double-click it, so it loads in that box, then hit the Import button.The left-side column is located in the forumhome template. Scroll down to $navbar, and just under that you'll see the commenting for the side column. The title goes in the title block, of course, and your code goes where you see Enter your code, text, image here. NOTE, this side column is for forumhome only. It will not work on every page, and I don't plan to make one that does.

You'll find a blank logo in PNG format, for easy customizing.


Enjoy!

Under "Similar Mod", I checked out the same exact design for 3.6, and it had a live demo. Ironically, the demo board was upgraded to 3.7

sorry ram, I have no idea what the problem could be. Be sure that you are importing the xml file from the style manager, not by ftp. The way it's screwed up on your forum, it has to be a xml issue. But I've not heard of any problems with this style until now.

After you've re-imported the xml file, if you'd like for me to take a look, you can pm me with your forum url and admin access.

ah I think I know what happened. Darn variable replacement. Try renaming them to subforum_new.png, subforum_old.png, etc.
That should fix the problem.

I tried to fix this by manually edit, from here https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=180937 but can't find what i'm looking for.

Any suggestions please ? :confused:

I've done so, and uploaded a new zip file here. If you will download the zip again and import the new xml, overwriting the old one, your theme will be fine.

Very strange. I looked at it on both my forums after re-importing the xml, and it works fine.


Check your forumdisplay template and forumhome_forumbit_level1_nopost templates and be sure that this code is there. It is there in the xml, I just looked.

<td class="thead" width="3%">&nbsp;</td>
<td class="thead" width="65%" align="$stylevar[left]">$vbphrase[forum]</td>
<td class="thead" width="20%">$vbphrase[last_post]</td>
<td class="thead" width="5%">$vbphrase[threads]</td>
<td class="thead" width="5%">$vbphrase[posts]</td>
<if condition="$vboptions['showmoderatorcolumn']">
<td class="thead" width="0%">$vbphrase[moderator]</td>
</if>
If this is correct in both templates, try clearing your browser cache, and emptying your temp files.

Hi

Here's the code in the template :

Forumdisplay :

<table class="tborder" cellpadding="$stylevar[cellpadding]" cellspacing="$stylevar[cellspacing]" border="0" width="100%" align="center">
<thead>
<tr align="center">
<td class="thead">&nbsp;</td>
<td class="thead" width="100%" align="$stylevar[left]">$vbphrase[forum]</td>
<td class="thead" width="175">$vbphrase[last_post]</td>
<td class="thead">$vbphrase[threads]</td>
<td class="thead">$vbphrase[posts]</td>
<if condition="$vboptions[showmoderatorcolumn]">
<td class="thead">$vbphrase[moderator]</td>
</if>
</tr>
</thead>
$forumbits
</table>

Forumhome_forumbit_level1_nopost :

<tbody id="collapseobj_forumbit_$forumid" style="{$collapseobj_forumid}">
<tr align="center">
<td class="thead" width="35">&nbsp;</td>
<td class="thead" align="$stylevar[left]">$vbphrase[forum]</td>
<td class="thead" width="175">$vbphrase[last_post]</td>
<td class="thead" width="65">$vbphrase[threads]</td>
<td class="thead" width="65">$vbphrase[posts]</td>
<if condition="$vboptions['showmoderatorcolumn']">
<td class="thead" width="120">$vbphrase[moderator]</td>
</if>
</tr>

Should I replace that with the one you give above ?

Thank's

Ohiosweetheart
07-09-2008, 03:54 PM
Yes definitely replace it, in both templates.

replace this part only (it is identical in both templates) -

<td class="thead">&nbsp;</td>
<td class="thead" width="100%" align="$stylevar[left]">$vbphrase[forum]</td>
<td class="thead" width="175">$vbphrase[last_post]</td>
<td class="thead">$vbphrase[threads]</td>
<td class="thead">$vbphrase[posts]</td>
<if condition="$vboptions[showmoderatorcolumn]">
<td class="thead">$vbphrase[moderator]</td>
</if>


with this -

<td class="thead" width="3%">&nbsp;</td>
<td class="thead" width="65%" align="$stylevar[left]">$vbphrase[forum]</td>
<td class="thead" width="20%">$vbphrase[last_post]</td>
<td class="thead" width="5%">$vbphrase[threads]</td>
<td class="thead" width="5%">$vbphrase[posts]</td>
<if condition="$vboptions['showmoderatorcolumn']">
<td class="thead" width="0%">$vbphrase[moderator]</td>
</if>

Nice skin, downloaded to try out on my forum, thanks!

Plan to use it since I really love it although I have a quick simple question. For some reason the whos_online gif isn't showing up for a couple hacks that would normally use it. I know this is most likely a really easy fix and I've done it before but right this second I can't figure out how to fix the issue. Any help?

just a thought, is it possible to make it fixed rather than fluid ?

You would have to make it fixed.

I believe that the whos_online image for this theme is saved in .png format, rather than gif. Just looked better.

I know which hacks you're talking about. I've had to open the xml file, locate the image, and change it from .gif to .png. for it to show up. You'll need to do the same.

Open the header template, find the nav buttons bar, then the home link, and change the address for the link.

I've got it installed but have a couple of issues.
First one is why the use of png files? I can't click the logo and get back to the index page when it's a png.
Other one is how do you code the side boxes to accept a picture? I'd like to show off a pic in the top box and some affiliate url's in the other two boxes.

Other than that the members like it.

Ohiosweetheart
09-20-2008, 12:39 PM
I use png's alot because they look better on all monitor resolutions. But the reason you can't get back to the index page is that the image either isn't linked, or isn't linked properly. It has nothing to do with the image being a png, jpg, gif, or any other extension.

You need to know basic html or xhtml in order to put info, pics, etc in the side columns. If you want to place a pic there, upload the pic to your server, and use this code -

<img src="path/to/image.jpg (or gif or png)" alt="">
