Category Images Top & Bottom + Category Spacing
Enjoy!
I dont have any screens for this mod atm, so im sorry However i did use this style on www.squareultima.com/forums :) If there are any problems let me know repaste the top part into your forumhome_forumbit_level1_nopost to take advantage of collasping. :) |
your a good old boy! :P ty
EDIT : Maybe you could show us how you added the 'Max/Min' catagory buttons? |
Ah i forgot to add that back in didnt i? :/
lol ill revamp the tut in a fe w:) |
you might have done....its just i looked brielfy through the code, and missed any bits to add my 'minamize' ;'maxamize' buttons.
++, dont wanna sound too much like a pain, but i notice here that they have managed to apply this to the navbar at the top...do you know how to achieve this? +++, (blatant cheek i know), the 'What's Going On?' and the 'Welcome to the X forums, please sign up' notices arn't included....are they easily achieved? Thanks again! :) |
Great, thanks for releasing this! :)
|
updated the name to properly reflect the modifcations :)

hahaaaa....did you try putting your image locations in there? N00b. it worked 100% first time easy peasy for me. The image boxes just means you didn't put any url, or the url it wrong. idoit. Please dont flame a thread with such negitivity if you are the one at fault! |
Now Now magik theres no reason to flame him
HostC you need to provide your own images for this, this is just a small tutorial on how to make it work for you :) |

aww..i love it when we make up!!!! |
This will be useful, thank you.
The "Style Ported by" link in footer isn't yours I hope. Some brats didn't like being banned looks like. |
one question, I tried installing this modification, but for some reason the spacing does not work, the category images work fine but there is no category spacing. :confused:
|
Then you must have not done a step...
|
Well the category spacing is also working not here, vbb 301
|
I think you must change ( width="$stylevar[outertablewidth]" ) to ( width="100%" )
|
And in this hack, the allignment is a real f*ck up
|
It all depends Mikey_nl ;)
I will release an alignment mod to fix anyone who is having their problems. altho i really dont like sharing everything i figure out ;) |

I think that when you become a staple in these communities, its kinda part of the job description to help when you can, particularly with things that you release. If that is something that you'd rather keep to yourself, then its probably best to do just that, and keep it to yourself, rather than gloat or release half finished products that you have the fixes for but "would rather keep them a secret"(ps, this isn't directed at zachery, but the community and trends lately in general, his post just magnified the situation). The more people try to split off and do their own thing, the further the point of open source moves away from its goal: to have great working things that many people have input on to make the best product possible. As people start to segregate themselves and their work, fewer and fewer people will be there to form that checks and balances type of QA system that open source coding revolves around. I for one appreciate all of the effort you and the rest of the coders put into these sites and vbulletin, but I'm not sure how else to portray thatother htan clicking install and offering a candid opinion or aid whenever I can. I am sure lots of others feel the same way as well, so the work isn't going unnoticed. |
Well as of right now most of the work here is mine and i seem to be the only one realesaing anything as of late. Its not that i dont mind its just i dont like sharing all my trade secretes :)
Im not charing for my services, and im not paid to work here, i do this site purely volentary, yes i do have a business site up, but do you see me advertising it here? I dont release half finished products, this does EXACTLY what it says it will do, and thats give you the ability to add images at the corners of your forum home and space the categorys. |
Aye Zach, the main jist of my post wasn't aimed at you, though it was in reply to your post. with VB3 Gold, it seems like the majority of the mods to the sites are going to be done through Templates, and it is a real bummer seeing this site being contributed to by just a couple of people, yourself and floris being the main 2 IMO, and a few others who seem to be making a valiant effort at also keeping up the community.
VBulletinTemplates.com should be BOOMING, but it is barely touched. Even with as much traffic that is directed here from vb.org, it's just not picking up IMO. I think a couple of steps in the right direction are as follows: (and I'm sure as a mod you have little control over these things, but maybe someone will see.) 1. Broken image links on main page just add to the ghosttown effect of the site. It's a small fix that would at least give the impression that there is some sort of administrating body overseeing things. 2. Forum guidelines need to be in a more centralized location, and more attention needs to be paid to these guidelines. I think one of the guidelines or possibly even rules? over at vb.org is to always include a ss and txt. for this site, that is exponentially more important. Someone needs to fix the image uploading so that everyone can post images of their mods. It seems like a lot of VB site owners have ADD or something, and not a week after they get their site setup, mods posted, and whatnot, they have a link to some image on their site instead of posting a jpg, which is kinda just a roundabout way of getting people to visit, which isn't all bad I guess, but they really should be including jpg's uploaded to vBT. The install button, it's purpose, and perhaps it's recognition should all be made more clear. Currently, I know that on vb.org, when I click install, it gives me updates to the mod that the author posts, and it lets me see a list, but what else does it do? why do the mod authors have to make a point about clicking install? I didn't know about the button here until after several mods were installed, and I am still not sure what exactly it does. I think we as members should be very aware of what installing does, so that the coders dont have to beg us to click the button. Anyhow, those are justa few things that would help out vBT and the vB community IMO. I think you're doing a great job here, and I really did not intend for my initial post to be focussed on you, but the happenings as a whole. Keep up the good work, and I can't wait til I get familiar enough with vB to offer my own mods and ideas, rather than just helping people out with what others are installing. |

How would i get this to also work for subforums not just forum home ?
|
If I want to make a background image, how big do I need to make the background image?

hhmm when i use your code everything is fine up to the point i put the cat image in via the style manages like normal. The catagory strip image then over flows the corner images. Its like the cat bar is still the full lenght of the forum for some reason. Any ideas ?
using 3.0.1. |
I'd really like to get this working, but when I installed it, it totally messed up my column spacing. If there a way, without having to hardcode the widths like it was previously, to get this working? Can someone post a modified version that will work on a stock conversion of 3.0.0.1? Thanks anyone who helps.
