vBulletin Style Skin for MediaWiki

vBulletin MediaWiki Skin

The purpose of this mod is to get your MediaWiki to look like your forums... A lot of people have been having trouble getting their Wikis to look streamlined with their forums, this is my first attempt.

------------
INSTALLATION
------------

1. Upload the contents of the "upload" folder to the "skins" directory of your Wiki installation...

2. Go into WIKIDIRECTORY/skins/vBulletin.php and replace all instances of <URLTOFORUMS> with the URL to your forums (ex: http://www.vbulletin.com/forums), make sure to leave the trailing slash off.

If you use the standard vBulletin skin, you are DONE. Your new skin can be selected or forced in your Wiki settings.

If you use a customized skin, please read the following steps...

-----------
CUSTOMIZING
-----------

3. Go into your vBulletin AdminCP > vBulletin Options > Style & Language Settings and make sure that "Store CSS Stylesheets as Files?" is set to yes and working. If it is, go into your FTP and download the CSS file from FORUMDIRECTORY/clientcript/vbulletin_css/, if you find multiple stylesheets in there, make sure to take the one with the same style sheet ID as the style you would like to enable for your Wiki. Rename this file to vbulletin.css and copy it over into the WIKIDIRECTORY/skins/vbulletin/ directory, overwriting the existing file.

4. Go into WIKIDIRECTORY/skins/vBulletin.php and find the section called . Make edits to this area to match the header to your skin. You can not use vB variables in this area, so make everything absolute. Be sure to remember to set the variables for the spacer_open variables towards the end.

5. Go into WIKIDIRECTORY/skins/vBulletin.php and find the section called . Make edits to this area to match the footer to your skin. You can not use vB variables in this area, so make everything absolute.

6. If you know anything about skinning the Wiki, feel free to edit other areas. I have tried my best to limit the need to edit other areas.

It works, but i have problems to customize the wiki-skin with header, fisheyemenu and navbar, like in the forums. How can i solve this? Can you help me?

@imiviortal ... no idea how a skin would cause any of THOSE problems... as for the store CSS stylesheets as files problem, you need to make sure that the vbulletin_css directory is writeable so that vB can write those files in. If its not writeable, then you will never get the files.

@hollosch ... this skin should be compatible with any MediaWiki, no matter what bridge you are using. Though, if you are using vBWikiPro/NuHitWiki, doesn't it automatically do this stuff for you? I thought that was the advantage of getting the Pro version, full integration with vB... as for customizing it to your forums, you may need to manually edit other players around vBulletin.php to get it to look like your forums. You may also need to add script callups in the section above in <head>.

the vBwikiPro-Stuff is dead - nuhit.com is dead. but the script is alive - and i have no plan to create the header like in the forums....:( and i don't know to add callups...
thats why i need help...

I've sort of solved the problem - It's a conflict in the css.

This mod is merging the vbulletin css and main css files and there is a conflict in a: values.

The wanted page link is indicated by the .new class in the main css, but it is being over-ridden by a: values being set in the vbulletin css

I've solved it by deleting the alt1 class a: entries in the vbulletin css. From there, modify the a: colours for the .new class in the main css if you're not happy with the Wiki default colours.

I'm having the same problem as Carrlos ! two search boxes and two tool boxes !

You can have a look at my forum !

Account: Memphis
Pass: 123

BTW could you have a look at my logo and footer ?

I only have the logo on the left.

I have those pics for the Header and Footer but I have no ideas what to do with those to make them look like my forum's. I'm bad with coding, so I need your help !

Link to my forum: http://www.rowiki.net/forum

Those images attached bellow are the footer(small one) and header (big one) !

Thank you in advance

Thanks for speaking up leonnix! I thought it was just me and that everyone was ignoring me!! Hopefully someone can tell us why and how to fix it. :)

leonnix

10-16-2008 03:43 AM

Ok Carrlos I find out the problems ! All you have to do is to fix your mediawiki:sidebar page. Go and look for these line *Tool and *Search then delete them !

12-10-2008 09:10 PM

I am trying this out, and also had the problem of having two search and tool boxes, which I have edited out. The other problem I am noticing is that the buttons to collapse the boxes on the left sidebar are not working. Are these simply for show?

geda	12-13-2008 05:54 AM

I have installed it , everything is fine but its not showing my LOGO. what might be wrong? Its not showing non of the image files.

Any suggestions?

If you did not get that sorted out yet, the copyright tag is not added to the footer text in the skin. You need to open Vbulletin.php. Find:

Code:

<?php        $footerlinks = array(

        'lastmod', 'viewcount', 'numberofwatchingusers',

        );

Change to

Code:

<?php        $footerlinks = array(

        'copyright', 'lastmod', 'viewcount', 'numberofwatchingusers',

        );

This adds the copyright notice as the first line of the footer. You can the placement of it by moving it elsewhere in that array.

What I would really love to see on this skin is at the top, in the navbar area, instead of having the info on when the page was last modified and the number of views, is to have the Vb login form there if someone is not logged in, and the Private Message notification stuff if they are logged in. I gave it a try using the require call to global.php, but I could not seem to just copy and paste that stuff from the navbar template over to this skin file.

Any ideas?

Dexter...

Hello,

Which file exactly do you have to edit?

Thanks

Thanks for the great hack.

Any chance this hack would work with vb version 3.6.8.

Thanks!

I have a problem with this hack. Using 3.7.4 and it makes me this error:

Quote:

Fatal error: Call to undefined method SkinvBulletin::tooltipAndAccesskey() in /var/www/vhosts/tvwiki.de/httpdocs/skins/vBulletin.php on line 216

Does anyone know why it is an error? I only did these changes, which are named in this thread!

Is it possible to only add header and footer (static) from the vb forum? Leaving the wiki code as it is?
