very small and simple maybe? vBulletin template question

Hello,
I am currently working on a page with short windows tips for users on my message board who often get infected or let people into their computer when they really didnt mean to :rolleyes:

any how to the point of the question:

I have the page at http://board.madoshi.com/comhelp.php

It does not look very well under a few of the styles, what would I need to edit in the template for the page to force it to use a custom style and over ride the user's default? Or is this done elsewhere than in the template? and how would I accomplish this task?

Thank you!

In your php file add $styleid = x;

Replacing x with the id of the style you want to use for that page :)

Hi Mist, thanks for replying,
I tried it as you said (see short code below) but I am afraid it did not work, then again often I can be a block head and mess up the unmessable :( I used the numerical value of the style, is that the correct way to do it?

Code:

<? 

require( "global.php" ); 

eval("dooutput(\"".gettemplate('jgm_extra')."\");"); 

$styleid = 4;



?>

PHP Code:


		
			
<?

$styleid = 4; 

require( "global.php" ); 

eval("dooutput(\"".gettemplate('jgm_extra')."\");"); 

?>

Try that :) ^^

Thank you very much Mist! All it took was just putting it above global.php requirement :D

heh heh heh, I just found one bug though. It changes the person's style for that one page, and when they return to the forum it is still that style! lol! :D
You have to go to your User CP and change to a different style, then change back. Is this something template side?

I'm not sure - I read that doing that does the job but hmmm... No idea sorry :(

I believe it will keep the styleid in the users cookie, there was a fix made for it. You could try clearing your cache (ctrl+f5) and that may help

Hi assassingod,
I did try that and had a few other people try too, and it did not help :( Oh well.

I think I would like to try to do it so the text formatting and background use the rules of the user's style selection, instead of forcing them to one style I am going to try and find/add the lines into the template to use the skin's natrual colors.
