vb.org Archive - 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.

DEMO

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
