I need to know how to make a new style, ok you can change colours and everything but i want to be able to change my layout. i use like most people Header and the Footer to make the layout how i want it, so when i thought i could change the styles i thought this would be good, now i can let my user selcet between x number of layouts, but the all aim at the same header and footer templates. ne1 know how to make it so that they don't??

kindest regards

You can 'force' a forum into a specific style in your Admin CP, it's a Forum property setting.

-deb

If you want to change the templates (in this case, header and footer), you will have to create a new template set for the new style.
Then, make the style use the template set you just created.

thanks
is there a way so that i dont have to edit all the templates again?
as i have a lot of edited templates.

Not that I know of.

do you think it could be done easily, one way i think would work is going through all of the files and adding something like $header[$stlye] and having more header files.

ne1 willing to work on this, i think it would be good for vb.

I have managed to creat this hack, if any one wants it, post here. It gives you unlimited layouts of your site

Bargie:

I'd be interested in seeing it. I'm not sure I need it right this minute, but there's always tomorrow!

Do you have a URL you can show it off at, please? :)

deb

yeah!

I would love to see it too, but if you don't have a board just send the hack to me! ;)

I have tried to make that hack myself, but without lock!

ok i have typed this up, i regret that i can't show youu my board at the moment as i am doing extensive work to it and this hack is only one of them.
This is v.1 i will call it and i know it works with v.2.00 should work with others, pls find attached. it is very easy and only a few line, it could have a lot done to it if someone wants to work at it, like when people add a new style ask if they want a new header and footer? stuff like that
