Tech Style set issue

[calldaffer]

Alright, I got this skin off of vbulletin.com and everything installed great except for one small issue. Please see my attached picture. Notice how my "Last Post" column and "Moderator" column are not lined up in the correct place, anyone know where I'd go to correct this issue? Please tell me what templete I need to be in to fix this and what exactly I need to do also. Thanks.

LOL, forgot to attach the file....DOH!

It's a colspan issue - you must have edited something in the style - re-do it :)

Unfortunatly re-doing it is not an option for me ;) Reason being is that the person who designed this style directed all images used in the set to pool from the imagesfolder. So I had to manually go templete by templete and redirect all the images to a new place so that it wouldn't overwrite my main images folder. Took me around 2 or 3 hours :D I can't put myself through that again LOL....is there another way around this? Maybe by adjusting a table width somewhere??

[Dean C]

Well can you post up a full size screenshot (you can censor your domain if you wish)

[calldaffer]

don't need to censor anything since the URL to my forums is in my signature :D

Here is a full size look:

[mr e]

just go into your forumhome template and there is an extra < td > tag in there that is pushing all your others cells over one

[Dean C]

Mr e is right - you have an extra <td> tag in your "forumhome_forumbit_level1_post" template.

Post it up if you can't find it yourself :)

Alright, I didn't have any luck with "forumhome_forumbit_level1_post" so I'll post it for ya'll to look at ;)

Can you show me where the problem is?

[Dolby]

Why did you remove the {images} variable? You could of just changed 1 path in the style edit menu for that style.

Goto AdminCP
goto Styles
Goto Modify
Click [fonts/colors/etc] on the techie style
scroll down to Image folder path and type in:
/forums/techimages/images

tada... saved your self hours of work. I know it works too becuase when I make a style I always use the variable for the path incase I want to release it some day.

Your going to have slower load times using the full (http://) path and things wont cache right.

[calldaffer]

DOH!! I was totally unaware you could do that man. Thanks for the info......I'll be sure to make a note of that for the future. Anyway, anyone know the fix to this issue?

[mr e]

well im not sure what you did here, but fix it
