Hi my darling Allan :) Very nice style. A work of professional :p

You have the style which has most of installs now :D

Hi,

it's a very good style.
But I'm having a little problem.
See the screenshot. I don't know why that's happen. I'm using vB 3.6.4.
Also I'm missing a "forum_link.gif" and "forum_new_lock.gif"

Michael_Jim

I get all excited when there is a reply hoping it will help solve my weird UserCP roll over problem.

Michael_Jim, something got reverted. You can either reinstall the skin without reverting the 15 lovely templates, or you can go into main css.

Styles & Templates > Style Manager > Main CSS (from the drop down beside chestnut)

Go to "Category Strips" and copy the path that's in the () (I changed mine so I can't remember the default)

Keep scrolling down to "Popup Menu Controls" and replace the path that's in there.

It should look like: #869BBF url() repeat-x top left

with the same path as category strips in the ()

aaand. fixed my own problem again, I didn't have the buttons "id"d properly.

The problem i am having is that when you click the parent root of a forum the template get's all messed and adds another row a blank forum, as you can see in the first pic.

2nd pic, it gets totally deranged and nasty looking..

That part of the forum is invisible and used as a link for the navbar.

How can i fix this?


Thanks.

Allan, I was wondering whether or not this style has thread ratings viewable on the forum indexes or not. I have thread rating enabled on my forums, but below the Rating area in the forum, the only icons I ever see are those denoting a stickied thread.

This makes me think that there is some code missing to make thread ratings display in the forum index. Any help?

EDIT: Nevermind, I just had the minimum amount of votes to show thread rating set too high. Sorry. :)

Allan, I have a question for you. I installed vbadvanced on my forum and I am using your style. on the portal page, if I remove the navbar, the search and quick link buttons don't work. They both have a drop down menu and it seems to do a problem. I tried it with other styles I have on my forum as well and they don't do that. Any idea?

REALLY great style BTW :)

edited... nvm

I found the the buttons for home/forum on this thread but how do I integrate it into my forum. Using 3.6.4

Thanks

one of, if not THE best style here...cheers

No Problem with vB 3.6.5 ;)

Excellent skin! One of the very best I have seen.

I'm brand new to vbulletin but this is the first skin I have installed!! (and I meant installed!)

One question Allan,

In the legacy postbit section, say, if I want to create a image (like stripes) to fill up the entire left side, how do I go about doing that? or how do I change the color of the left side, so it will be different? (current my alternative 1 and 2 is the same color..)

hEllo again,

Have another question. I realized that if the image is too big or, for examples the smilies box, it goes out of the box. I still can see the rest of the image but some of my users can't. Any idea how to fix this?

Thanks.

Many Thanks for this skin Allan.

I have installed this on my very first forum site and also is the very first skin which I customize (like mad). I enjoyed your skin elegant design and also has learnt lots from it.

Thank you once again! (If only they have skin of the month! I'll vote you for sure!)

Woop! This is awesome, and im the 300th install ;)

Y?aaaaaa, thanks for your clicks ;)

Is there a fluid version of this template? I'm willing to pay! :D

How do I add a reply button in the private message section? Peoples find the quote button confusing.

save .gif and replace it. :)

Thanks. :)

Allan,great style! one question... I added a google map backgraound and the background doesn't go all the way to the forum - there is a bar of color as you can see in the attached pic. How can I get the background all the way to the forum?

Change the overall width to 100% as mentioned here in this thread earlier. No need to pay for that. ;)

How and where?

Nevermind found it. thanks!!! love it alot!

Just wanted to thank you. I transformed this skin, using it as a basis for my Frank Herbert and Sons discussion forum on the history, symbolism, politics and philosophy of the DUNE universe. Made for such a nice base skin to build upon. Beautiful colors, options, buttons, everything!

Hi Allan,

this Style is fantastic. 3 days ago I started working with vBulletin and I will change my running Board soon to it.
I think I will use your style as standard there.
It's a german Board so i have to translate all the Buttons into german.
Of course it's no problem to do this with your psds but maybe you have the complete set as psd so I just have to change the buttons, press "save" and they will be automatically saved into the correct names?
If not it's absolutely no problem, I will do this anyway ;)

Am I allowed to share the germen buttons with other Users in this Thread and maybe also to set a Link in a german Supportboard? I think I will not be the only one this would be useful for.

Regards

Andr?

My members are complaining that the texts is way to light and seem to be all cluttery. Anyone out there that can help me darken out the colors the color scheme? I'm willing to donate a couple bucks for someone to help me with this. PM me. :D (must have experience with Chestnut style)




Thank you!!

As it turns out I am now having some trouble. Perhaps someone will assist:

Ok, when I posted my kudos and thanks, I only had one ROOT forum folder, That is to say:

|-------------------WIDTH-------------------|
PARENT 1
-- CHILD 1
-- CHILD 2

Now the error occurs when I add a new PARENT forum...

|-------------------WIDTH-------------------|

PARENT 1
-- CHILD 1
-- CHILD 2

|--------------------------------------WIDTH--------------------------------------|
PARENT 2
-- CHILD 3
-- CHILD 4

When PARENT 2 is added, the TABLE WIDTH goes all hectic, and seems to be fluid rather than fixed. This looks horrible.

What would cause an inconsistency such as this? Deleting the PARENT 2 structure restores the shape and dimensions of the DEFAULT Chestnut settings.

For the record the problem with the Additional forums appears even after a FRESH import.

I am running 3.65

anyone figure out how to get a % width without it looking weird?

ok guys I need help ASAP.

I added a new button for a link to the chatroom I want to add. Here is the code I added:

<!-- Chat -->
<td width="80">
<table width="80" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0">
<tr>
<td style="background:#FFFFFF url($stylevar[imgdir_misc]/bouton_chat.gif);">
<a href="$vboptions[bburl]/" rel="nofollow"
onmouseover="JSFX.fadeIn('chat')"
onmouseout="JSFX.fadeOut('chat')"><img
src="$stylevar[imgdir_misc]/bouton_chat.gif" name="chat" width="80" height="40" border="0" class="imgFader" id="chat" alt="" /></a></td>
</tr>
</table>
</td>
<!-- /Chat -->

Now, here are the chat company's instructions. I don't understand how to do this since I am on a custom style.

Step 8.1.

Scroll (or use your browser's Find feature) to find the following code:

<td class="vbmenu_control"><a href="calendar.php?$session[sessionurl_q]">$vbphrase[calendar]</a></td>

Just below the above code, add the following:

<!-- START NEW PARACHAT CODE -->
<td id="chat" class="vbmenu_control">
<a href="$show[nojs_link]#usercptools">$vbphrase[parachat_link]</a> <script type="text/javascript"> vbmenu_register("chat"); </script></td>
<!-- STOP NEW PARACHAT CODE -->

Step 8.2.

Scroll (or use your browser's Find feature) to find the following code:

<td class="vbmenu_option"><a href="search.php$session[sessionurl_q]" accesskey="4" rel="nofollow">$vbphrase[advanced_search]</a></td>
</tr>
</table>
</div>
<!-- / header quick search form -->
</if>

Just below the above code, add the following:

<!-- START NEW PARACHAT CODE -->
<!-- NAVBAR POPUP MENUS -->
<if condition="$show['member']">
<!-- chat menu -->
<div class="vbmenu_popup" id="chat_menu" style="display:none">
<table cellpadding="4" cellspacing="1" border="0">
<tr><td class="vbmenu_control"><a href="chat.php?$session[sessionurl]">$vbphrase[parachat_embed]</a></td></tr>
<tr><td class="vbmenu_control"><a href="chat.php?$session[sessionurl]&do=popup" target="parachat" onClick="window.open('chat.php?$session[sessionurl]&do=popup', 'parachat', 'width=600,height=400,status=no,scrollbars=no,menu bar=no,resizable=yes'); return false"> $vbphrase[parachat_popup]</a></td></tr>
</table>
</div>
<!-- / chat menu -->
</if>
<!-- / NAVBAR POPUP MENUS -->
<!-- STOP NEW PARACHAT CODE -->

Then, after that, I want to be able to display the number of users chatting. I need to do that:

Double-click on navbar to edit the template. Scroll (or use your browser's Find feature) to find the following code:

<if condition="$show['pmstats']"><br /><phrase 1="$vbphrase[unread_x_nav_compiled]" 2="$vbphrase[total_x_nav_compiled]" 3="$session[sessionurl_q]">$vbphrase[private_messages_nav]</phrase></if>

Just below the above code, add the following code.

<!-- New ParaChat Code -->
<br>$vbphrase[parachat_chatting]
<!-- Begin Counter Code -->
<applet codebase="http://host7.parachat.com/pchat/applet"
archive=counter.jar code="count.ChatCounter.class" width=20 height=10>
<param name="query.Site" value="$vbphrase[parachat_siteid]">
<param name="ui.bg" value="E1E4F2">
<param name="ui.fg" value="000000">
<param name="ui.FontSize" value="12">
<param name="ui.FontName" value="Arial">
Sorry, your browser is not Java enabled, please visit
<a href="http://www.parachat.com/faq/java.html">our java support pages
</applet>
<!-- End Counter Code -->
<!-- End New Code -->

Can someone help?

Very nice skin, and I installed it well. How do you make the buttons English? I'm still new with vbstyles

you'll need photoshop... open the .psd that are found in the PSD folder that you want to edit. click on the layer with the Text and change it to whatever you want... then save them with a new name.

Hi Allan,

Great job with the skin design :)
Just a quick question, how can I turn the 'animated' fade off for the old/new post icons?

If you take a look at my forum, www.ChessForums.org you should see what I mean :)

Thanks again!
Greg

EDIT: Ignore that, fixed it now :)

Allan, i am using the chestnut right now. Will you come out with other colors too?? I'm willing to pay a couple bucks.

Hello

Been using Chestnut for a while.. damn fine style. A user just pointed out to me that there is no 'edit' button to modify posts... and I can verify that it's not showing up.

I have 'quick edit' set to yes in the admin, am I missing something? The odd thing is that the 'Site' button is where 'Edit' is normally located, could this be part of the problem?

Anyone run into this??

Thanks!
hanji

there is one image messing (expires.gif) it should be on the following directory:
images/chestnut/misc/expires.gif
but it's not there, i also searched for it but i couldn't see it.

can you upload it please.

I just used my default style's expires.gif image. Works great for me. :D

Still waiting for ANYONE to respond to the WIDTH issue on page 16 of this thread. Please help...

May I know how to add more buttons to he navbar? It gives me a JSX or whatever error saying the hoverover is not correct when the path is clearly correct. A small tutorial would be helpful! Also, if there is a way to add a second header navbar, please tell!
