For optimum earning potential, there is Adsense Search integrated into the NavBar template.

Change the following line in the navbar template to your Publisher ID:


<input type="hidden" name="cx" value="partner-pub-9556872839910172:du2nue-p0r5" />


OR

You can remove it by finding the below code in the NavBar template and deleting it.

Question! the problem may be on my side but I'm not sure. I notice that the MEMBERS LIST in navbar doesn't show up for me. I do have mods installed through my default style maybe that's affecting it in someway?

In 3.8, members list is located under the community drop down, and not a separate item. Perhaps that could be the confusion?

Well right now I'm running (vBulletin 3.7.4) I'm also running 3 other styles that seem to be fine. Its most likely because of a mod I have installed on my forum. its no bigge really I'll figure it out...

Ok, well you are running 3.7.4 but this style is coded for 3.8. Your other styles are coded for 3.7 right? So they will show the memberlist link in the navbar, BUT when you upgrade to 3.8, your old styles won't show the community link / dropdown.

Looks great, but it has too much baggage involved, meaning I don't like the fact, that it is my vbulletin but their are strings attached to your organization. But whatever call me selfish. Again really cool design

Everything installed good

but now the users online pic doesn't appear. Instead it reads "User is online"

Also, the "Edit. Quote. reply" pic doesn't come up. Instead it reads Edit/Delete Message Reply With Quote Multi-Quote This Message Quick reply to this message.

Also the "Close" pic. it just reads "Close this thread"

I just installed this tonight and it never worked. I don't know what went wrong but I selected the style for my user and it kept showing the default vB style that came with vB.

You have to update your images paths in vbadvanced through the install program or it wont see the new images they are not even in the same directory as your old images.

Well its a vBadvanced issue, not a issue with the style so you are probably going to need to contact vBadvanced for support. If the style works with vB and not with vBadvanced.

I don't know I'm having some problems with this as well, it says the style is supported but the designer has yet to be found. I have been posting for a while. I really like the style, but there are a few problems, I don't have an ad account so I want to remove the ads. I searched the navbar template for the code to remove and it must have been changed because there is no code that says "remove below - remove above" in the style version I just downloaded.

Also, once again, this style does not seem to support the blog or project tools features. I love this style but once again I am disappointed because it seems that NO ONE supports blog or project tools in their styles.

I'm getting some really bad issues when looking at blogs, the BBCode isn't even being reconized, its just showing the BBCode tags on the page instead of rendering them and all of the images are missing.

I was hoping to get this style installed and working because I really like it.

It says supported but I haven't seen a reply from the author since last Janurary. I think a moderator needs to update this style as not supported.

Will you allow us to change the backlink's title to "Mark Bolyard" but still link to those forums? Due to the type of site I have, having "Wrestling Forums" on the front page is a bit odd, possibly enough of an issue to prevent me from using the theme.
