lol...My forum home and forum home postbit files are pretty modifed so I hope you guys can take some of my code out and put in this addition to help me out a little :) I tried and it kept making the category title disappear and the image would be about 1 inch above the title.

Here is my coding. Its pretty modified. I had to change a lot of stuff around to get the breaks inbetween my forums Hope some of you can give me a hand :)

everytime I try it, I can't get the middle part to show. I've tried it on my custom one, then one from complete scratch. http://forums.thephonemall.net/index.php?styleid=6

My categorie stripes are set to:

#000000 url(images/gradients/gradient_tcat.gif) repeat-x top left When I change that color, the color in the midle changes. Any thoughts?

Well, this is the first mod I have ever done to VB (I'm running 3.03) and it worked right off the bat. :) I used some colored dummy images so I could tell what's going onscnreen before I make up my final images.

I never bothered to do a thing with the category strips background, but I'm assuming whatever background I put in Style Manager > All Style Options > Category Strips > Background will appear between my left & right images.

I have one question that I didn't find (sorry if it's been posted). The spacing values of 5px 5px 5px 5px stand for, what? Which number puts the pixel spaces where? Is it left, right, top bottom or similar?

How do I take off the border on the category so when I have category images like I have in the image there isn't that border around it so it makes it look square when really it's rounded.

im just getting really weird results, I tried everyone else's fixes but no good comes out of it. Anyone have any ideas on what may be wrong? How can I fix it?

Thanks.

Could someone answer this please:

Does this mod allow adding images to the MAIN category (the kind of category that doesn't allow posting)?

the main category as you can see in my attachment.

If not, how can this be done?

You can do that, but this mod won't do that for you. It depends, if you want 3 images going across (left, middle and right) then the mod will do that for you. If you want one image, and only on the side, then no.

What did I screw up? It won't let me add the image to the place it says "Main Category" or is it supposed to?

www.punktek.com/forums

EDIT:: See where those images are showing up (They're just test images..I'm not that bad. :D) I want them to show up on the Main Category and Category 2. They need ot be on either side much like I've seen but somehow I screwed up. Do I need to post my forumhome template coding or? >.<. I can't revert cause I already had some mods made to it.

EDIT 2:: I just completely deleted it. I'm gonig to try re-installig it.

Hello,
For those that were wondering, this does work on 3.0.7. I just installed it, and the installation went flawless. For those of you that are not seeing the space between the forums, it is a simple fix. There is a typo in the instructions.

In your forumhome_forumbit_level1_nopost you are told to place this at the VERY bottom.

PHP Code:


		
			
<div style="padding: 5px 5px 5px p5x;"></div>

If you look at the numbers, the last 5px is written incorrectly. You should actually add this:

PHP Code:


		
			
<div style="padding: 5px 5px 5px 5px;"></div>

If you have done everything as you were instructed, and make this change that is posted, the spacing will appear.
Also, if you use massive graphics for your top cat., the bottom one might appear not to work. I had this problem. Once I shrunk my cat images down, the bottom and top appeared as they were supposed to.

I would show an example, but I played with this on my test site before I actually install it on my real site.

My collasping images have been pushed into the middle. I have been trying for like 2 or 3 hours just trying to figure it out and I cannot find my issue.

What exactly does this empty row do? Firefox and Opera do display empty rows unlike IE, and it doesn't look nice when it's empty.

I just deleted this row but I would like to know its purpuse. Please advise.

As far as the problem with the widths, please see the screenshot provided. Firefox displays it correctly, but Opera and IEWin do not.

Any suggestions?

thanks

PS. excellent mod by the way.

Yes why is this extra table there? I didnt take mine out because I dont know if i should.

How do I just do the category spacing thing? only if I use gradients?

Thanks for posting this mod, I've been wondering how to customise the category strips in this way. It's all worked fine, but I keep getting a problem with the background showing up where it shouldn't. The custom category strip is meant to be rounded, but I can still see the background (marked by red circles). Please see attachment. How can I solve this problem?

Bump!

Can anyone help please?

I believe it gets put just before the graphic for your top right corner. To move it more to the right, you can shrink the size of your corner.

Actually I've found a way of doing it too. Basically, you put your code in as per Zachery's mod instructions, but you don't put an url to the tcat image in the category CSS section in the style manager. Instead, you put the same colour as your page background is. Voila, you now have "transparent" corners. Took me ages to work that out, lol.

Any updates for 3.6.0 please?!

peterska2

08-24-2006 11:32 AM

Works fine in 3.5.x and 3.6.x

idwf	08-24-2006 04:48 PM

actually, i think you'll find it doesn't and jake bunce would agree with me. However, as your mod, i spose your right..hmmm

08-24-2006 04:54 PM

In what way is it not working? It works perfectly for me.

There is a typo in the very last line of the instructions where there is a p5x which should be 5px but thats it.

Can you provide a link to where it is not working?

Don't worry yourself, I figured it out myself.
