Corporate Blue
 
Here is a business style I designed. I used allot of the default vB colors and graphics, but in the end I think it all worked out. I have added some rollover buttons on the left side of the forum.




1. Open your ftp client to your server. Go to your forum's images folder, open it, and create a styles folder.
2. Next, upload the "corporateblue" folder via FTP to your server, into your forum's styles folder, so that your image path is images/styles/corporateblue/buttons, for example.
3. After you've uploaded the folder, open your admin control panel on your forum, and import the xml file, by going to Styles & Templates > Download / Upload styles > Import Style XML File.
4. Click on the Browse button, locate the corporate-blue.xml file, and double-click it so it loads in that box, then hit the Import button.

Now open the folder labeled "Upload to forum root" and upload the file in that folder to your forum root.

That's it!

How to edit your buttons in the side column.

1. Go into adminCP | Styles & Templates | Style Manager | Edit Templates | Forum Home Templates | Forumhome.
2. Now below the $navbar you will see the following:

PHP Code:

<div id="menu2">
                        <
ul>
                                <!-- 
CSS Tabs -->
<
li><a id="current" href="http://www.YOURSITE.com">YOUR SITE</a></li>
<
li><a href="Link 2">Button 2</a></li>
<
li><a href="Link 3">Button 3</a></li>
<
li><a href="Link 4">Button 4</a></li>
<
li><a href="Link 5">Button 5</a></li>
<
li><a href="Link 6">Button 6</a></li>

                        </
ul>
                </
div

This is where you edit your buttons. I have a sample one done for you to see how to do it.


To add a new button just add this line above the </ul> tag:

PHP Code:

<li><a href="Link 2">Button 2</a></li

I hope you enjoy this style.

Thanks
Chris

It should have had the side column when viewing threads. I will look at it again.

Thank you for clicking install.

Is your forum located at www.yoursite.com/forum or forums?

You have to make sure the menu2.gif is uploaded to your forum root directory or it will not show up. If you have it uploaded post a link to your forum and I will have a look.

Lori 05-25-2008 07:34 PM

Chris,
can you have a look and let me know what I've done wrong -

Hi Lori,

If you could create me a test account I would be more than happy to have a look at it for you. Just PM me the info once you get it setup.

I want to translate it in a italian lenguage!

Another question:

When i have modified the standard links, the new links are align to right... and i can't move it in any mode...

Player-63 06-03-2008 11:24 PM

There is no PSD. The buttons in the navbar are css designed. So the text should show up in your language.

As far a aligning the links in the sidecolumn look in the Main CSS area of the style. Then scroll to the very bottom and you will see the settings for doing that in the CSS.

Are you shure?
In the MISC folder, there are all buttons presents in the navbar....
How i can (or where) change it?

mac27 06-07-2008 12:42 AM

I apologize. I was confused with another one of my styles. DOH!

I do not have a PSD file for those buttons. I am leaving on vacation in a few hours, but when I get back I will upload a blank button for you so you can create your own buttons. Please hang tight with me.

StreetTriple 06-07-2008 07:38 AM

ok thank you! i wait your answer!

mac27 06-15-2008 11:42 PM

OK try this button and see how it works for you.

Hache 06-16-2008 12:51 PM

the image in the left boxes doesnt seem to work

http://www.fsfootball.com/forums/index.php?styleid=2

i uploaded it to forum root, but no luck!

That is because the CSS code is setup for forums located at www.yoursite.com/forum and your forum is at www.yoursite.com/forums

Do this and it will get it fixed for you.

Goto into adminCP > Styles and Templates> Style Manager> Corporate Blue> Edit Main CSS

Now scroll to the very bottom of the page and look at the bottom box located in the box labeled Additional CSS Definitions.

In the bottom box replace all the code with this:

PHP Code:

/* ***** Postbit Legacy layout ***** */
.pbit {
padding-left1px;
padding-right3px;
padding-top1px;
padding-bottom2px;
background-color#F4F3FE;
border-top1px solid #3B5485;
border-right0px solid #F4F3FE;
border-left0px solid #F4F3FE;
border-bottom1px solid #3B5485;
margin-bottom5px;
}

/* ***** Sidecolumn ***** */


ul {
        list-
stylenone;
        
margin0;
        
padding0;
        }

img {
    
bordernone;
}



#menu2 {
        
width200px;
        
margin0px;
        
border-stylesolid solid none solid;
        
border-color#395384;
        
border-size1px;
        
border-width1px;
        }

#menu2 li a {
        
height32px;
          
voice-family"\"}\"";
          
voice-familyinherit;
          
height24px;
        
text-decorationnone;
        }

#menu2 li a:link, #menu2 li a:visited {
        
color#3688BA;
        
displayblock;
        
background:  url(forums/menu2.gif);
        
padding8px 0 0 40px;
        }

#menu2 li a:hover, #menu2 li #current {
        
color#3688BA;
        
background:  url(forums/menu2.gif-32px;
        
padding8px 0 0 42px;
        } 


Just click save and all should be good.

Hache 06-17-2008 07:45 PM

thanks for your help. I did that but it doesnt seem to have worked

mac27 06-18-2008 02:43 AM

I will look more into this as to why your site is not showing the buttons. Look for an answer tomorrow night.

Pete C 06-18-2008 10:18 PM

I've finally got this working properly on my test board. I too had problems making the graphics appear for the left side boxes. Since I also use the directory forums (not forum) I edited the Main CSS as suggested, but still to no avail. I eventually got the graphics to display by using their absolute URL rather than the relative URL shown in the update.
Maybe this will work for anyone else who's still having problems:

Code:

/* ***** Postbit Legacy layout ***** */
.pbit {
padding-left: 1px;
padding-right: 3px;
padding-top: 1px;
padding-bottom: 2px;
background-color: #F4F3FE;
border-top: 1px solid #3B5485;
border-right: 0px solid #F4F3FE;
border-left: 0px solid #F4F3FE;
border-bottom: 1px solid #3B5485;
margin-bottom: 5px;
}

/* ***** Sidecolumn ***** */


ul {
        list-style: none;
        margin: 0;
        padding: 0;
        }

img {
    border: none;
}



#menu2 {
        width: 200px;
        margin: 0px;
        border-style: solid solid none solid;
        border-color: #395384;
        border-size: 1px;
        border-width: 1px;
        }

#menu2 li a {
        height: 32px;
          voice-family: "\"}\"";
          voice-family: inherit;
          height: 24px;
        text-decoration: none;
        }

#menu2 li a:link, #menu2 li a:visited {
        color: #3688BA;
        display: block;
        background:  url (http://yourdomain.com/forums/menu2.gif);
        padding: 8px 0 0 40px;
        }

#menu2 li a:hover, #menu2 li #current {
        color: #3688BA;
        background:  url (http://yourdomain.com/forums/menu2.gif) 0 -32px;
        padding: 8px 0 0 42px;
        }

Simply change the text in red to the full URL where menu2.gif is located.

wow , its really amazing and clean style , love it.

lovevn 06-23-2008 04:38 AM

I think we should keep the default navbar and use the buttons on the header for some other links.

You can make changes to add the navbar back if you want. Also please click on install if you use this. Thanks.

another peice of good work cheers

yaku 11-01-2008 03:22 AM

Love this...very good stuff. Some improvements (at least for me) that I'd like to see:

1) Keep the side bar links when clicking through threads
2) Make the colors on the left hand darker...that light blue is tough to read.

On the whole though, outstanding work here.

Sarunas-PHP 11-12-2008 05:22 PM

I get what Mr Burns gets !!!

FIX PLEASE !!!

setishock 11-20-2008 05:54 AM
