btw, for those interested in breaking up the news items, it's not quite as easy as simply inserting a <br> or a table as listed above. you can add the table tags at the end of the home_newsbit template, but then you end up with a border around it.
if you don't mind that, then no problem... but if you'd rather not have that border, you have to go into the home_news template and remove the table that includes the cellpading and cell spacing. then paste that into the home_newsbit surrounding the whole thing. then add a new <table> tag that does not have a border, at the very end.

i can post my news and newsbit for those that are actually interested. not much to do, but for us that are just getting used to templates and such, it might be handy.

NTLDR does this work with 2.2.4?

looks great man :)

Yes it will Indeed ;)

It has been tested on 2.2.4, 2.2.6 and 2.2.7 but should work on all 2.2.x :)

cool thanx :)

is it possible to move the "latest thread" in the center instead of havin em in the right block? (like the old design)

laterz

Just use the v1.3 home_thread and home_threadbit templates and move $threads in the home template, it will then look like it did in 1.3 :)

Thanx NTLDR :)
I also coiped my old home_template over to the new one and it seem to work perfect :)

Hey I tried to upgrade my vbindex from 2.2.6 to 2.2.7 and it messed up last time. I ended up having my host company reinstall the backup I made before I tried to upgrade. Thank goodness because it didn't work right when I used the upgrade20.php file.

Anyways...

I want to upgrade to 2.2.8 this time from 2.2.6, are there suggestions you have so I do not mess my forum up like I did last time? I am using vbindex as index.php for my site, and it is pretty modified. Basically all I want to do is fix the permissions bug from 2.2.6 if anyone knows a simple way how...

Thanks,

clangrounds.com, I don't know if this is the same thing as what you experienced, but I did noticed that when I went to upgrade to 2.2.7, it screwed up my templates within the admin cp. If you notice, the templates are still there they just ARENT under the vbindex template category anymore.

Here's a quick tip: Back em up as html.
Run the vbindex template installation ONLY.
Then reimport your vbindex backed up templates. :)

It worked like a charm for me.

Thanks, that worked for me just fine. :happydance: :)

Great!

Nice site btw...
