Attached are 2 screenshots of my vb site. I installed webtemplates, helpdesk and yet another awards. For those 3 pages, it would appear that a background is missing resulting in the site looking a bit odd.

I'm stressing out on the lack of ability on my end to resolve this issue. I am asking you all for some guidance. I would appreciate that immensely.

Thank you.

That's a custom style and the additional.css is not being read...

Edit the template: WebTemplates_NowBrowsing

Copy the css from your additional.css and place it at the top of the template, wrap it in the code below before pasting:

<style type="text/css">

Your CSS Here.

</style>

Example:

<style type="text/css">
body {
background-image: url(images/stylename/forumhome.png);
background-repeat: repeat-y;
background-position: top;
}

.clear { clear: both; }

.padding {
padding: 10px;
}
</style>

That should fix it up for now check the mods thread to see if anyone else has had that issue and if a alternate fix is present or if the modification has been updated.

Edit: I see these posts in the mods thread here check them out and the last page of posts seems to have some info it seems others have had a similar issue:

Thank you thelastsuperman for your help. Unfortunately, it did not work or I somehow did not follow instructions correctly. I also understand through the provided links that this may be a theme issue conflicting with vb header/footer.

Well remember...

Visit your additional.css template, copy all the code, now visit the webtemplates template I mentioned above and paste that code from your additional.css at the top!

Now add:

<style type="text/css">

Above the css you just pasted.

Now add:

</style>

Below the css you pasted, hit save and check the webtemplate now... it should be fixed IF your styles creator has the styles custom css in additional.css otherwise there might still be issues present.

Good ;)

In either case or for any mod in this style your using that seems to "break" simply find a common template and post in your custom css using that same method. I will note that this style should be pulling the info correctly so I would ask the developer about that.

Or just add


{vb:cssfile additional.css}


to the bottom of the "custom" templates so there is no need to edit CSS attributes in 2 locations for future additions.

Even simpler = Even better!

Good suggestion I often overlook that and sometimes go the long way about things :p.

I got helpdesk working but I got an error with yetanotherawards certain templates.
Warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in [path]/includes/functions.php on line 3391

Custom templates
AWARDS - good
awards_request_form - err
awards_showcase - err
awards_viewaward - err

I tried both methods but with same results.

Appears to be a plugin/coding issue/conflict. This is a thread/forum for Design/Graphics.
