How can I make a three part forum header?
 
1 Attachment(s)
I've noticed on some of the nicer styles the designer has implemented forumheaders that consist of three images made up as a "right side", "center" and "left side".

Anyone have information they would like to share about how to do this?

The attachment shows just a regular single image forum header, I want a 3 piece.

Are you sure its not designed as one image, but differently in Photoshop, etc?

Disco_Dave 08-13-2013 07:36 PM
Can you show us an example?

Lynne 08-13-2013 08:17 PM
You put an image aligned left and aligned right and then the center image can just be a background image x-repeated.

That's exactly what I have in mind :up: . What I need is the code to accomplish that.

This is our code we use for a small logo on the left, may be this can help get you started:

PHP Code:
/*NIRC FORUM HEAD CSS EDITS*/

.forumbit_nopost .forumhead .forumtitle a {
margin-left: 28px;
}

.forumhead .forumtitle, .forumbits .forumhead h2 { background:url(images/evid_blue/elements/forumhead.png) no-repeat top left; }

.forumhead h2.forumtitle, .forumbits .forumhead h2 span.forumtitle { text-indent:30px; }

.forumbits .forumhead h2 span { background-image:none; }

.forumbit_nopost .forumhead span, .forumbits .forumhead h2 { padding:10px 0px 8px 0px; }

.forumbit_nopost .forumhead .collapse { padding:10px 0px 8px 0px; }

.forumbit_post .forumhead h2 span { padding:10px 0px 8px 0px; }

.forumbit_nopost .forumhead .forumtitle { padding:10px 0px 8px 0px; }

.forumbit_nopost .forumhead a.collapse img { top:-2px; right:4.4px; }

.blockhead img { padding-top:2px; padding-right:5px; }

/*NIRC FORUM HEAD CSS EDITS*/ 
But I'm not 100% sure if this is what you are looking.

It doesn't appear to be because the code I see in your's looks like it's controlling the forumhead not the header?

Disco_Dave 08-14-2013 08:40 AM
Your pic above ^ shows the forumhead, not the header, that's why I asked to see an example ;)

It sure does .... sorry about that.
Either or both would be sufficient as I'm attempting to create a style that requires both.

Thanks for pointing that out to me.

Lynne 08-15-2013 02:05 AM
If you post a link to an example, then we can just get the CSS/code used right from that.

K4GAP 08-15-2013 03:52 PM
Here is a good example of a header with three pieces.

Disco_Dave 08-15-2013 07:28 PM
there it is :)

I just done what Lynne as suggested, above.


PHP Code:
.headerL{
    float:left;
    width:146px;
    background-image: url(images/artakusia/artakusia_headerL.png);
    background-repeat: no-repeat;
    height: 173px;
    
    
}

.headerR{
    float:right;
    width:146px;
    background-image: url(images/artakusia/artakusia_headerR.png);
    background-repeat: no-repeat;
    height: 173px;


}

.headerC{
    margin-left:146px;
    margin-right:146px;
    height: 173px;
    background-image: url(images/artakusia/artakusia_logo.png);
    background-repeat: no-repeat;
    background-position: center top;
}


.navwrap {
    background-image: url(images/artakusia/artakusia_navbg.png);
        height: 54px;
    
}




.navL{
    float:left;
    width:92px;
    background-image: url(images/artakusia/artakusia_navL.png);
    background-repeat: repeat-y;
    height: 54px;
    
    
    
}

.navR{
    float:right;
    width:92px;
    background-image: url(images/artakusia/artakusia_navR.png);
    background-repeat: repeat-y;
    height: 54px;
    

}

.navC{
    margin-left:92px;
    margin-right:92px;
    height: 54px;
    
}


/* CONTENT - cara ni je expand vertical div dgn background,lansung takde float */


.contentL {
    width:100%;
    background-image: url(images/artakusia/artakusia_left.png);
    background-repeat: repeat-y;
    
    
    
}

.contentR {
    padding-top: 0;
    padding-right:8px;
    padding-bottom: 0;
    padding-left:8px;
    background-position: right;
    background-image: url(images/artakusia/artakusia_right.png);
    background-repeat: repeat-y;

}

.contentC {
    width:100%;
    background-image: url(images/artakusia/artakusia_cbg.png);
    background-repeat: repeat;    
}







.bottomwrap {
    overflow:hidden;
    background-image: url(images/artakusia/artakusia_footbg.png);
    background-repeat: repeat-x;

    
}



.bottomL{
    float:left;
    width:92px;
    background-image: url(images/artakusia/artakusia_footL.png);
    background-repeat: repeat-y;
    height: 93px;    
    
    
}

.bottomR{
    float:right;
    width:92px;
    background-image: url(images/artakusia/artakusia_footR.png);
    background-repeat: no-repeat;
    height: 93px;
    

}

.bottomC{
    margin-left:92px;
    margin-right:92px;
    height: 93px;
    
}

And this goes into additional ?

The CSS posted isn't going to help unless you also modify your template.

Have you tried googling "3 part header CSS"? There are a lot of articles that come up. Even better:

No, but I will.
Thanks Lynne

Thanks Lynne, I ended up going with some old code that was originally posted in '09

Thanks Max. I've found some useable code.

--------------- Added 17 Aug 2013 at 00:45 ---------------

The following is what I did to have a left and a right image with a background to blend the two.

First I looked for this code in the header template:
Code:
<div><a name="top" href="{vb:raw vboptions.forumhome}.php{vb:raw session.sessionurl_q}" class="logo-image"><img src="{vb:stylevar titleimage}" alt="{vb:rawphrase x_powered_by_vbulletin, {vb:raw vboptions.bbtitle}}" /></a></div>
Replace that code with this:
Code:
<div id="headerfill"><div id="headerl"></div><div id="headerr"></div></div>
Add the following to the styles additional css area:
Code:
#headerfill{
background-image: url(images/headerfill.png);
background-repeat: repeat-x;
height: 150px;
width: 100%;
margin-right: auto;
margin-left: auto;
}
#headerl{
background-image: url(images/headerl.png);
height: 150px;
background-repeat: no-repeat;
width: 400px;
float: left;
}
#headerr{
background-image: url(images/headerr.png);
background-repeat: no-repeat;
height: 150px;
width: 400px;
float: right;
}
Works for me and I'm running vb 4.2.1

Thank you once again Lynne for pointing me in the right direction.
