Hey, guys. I'm in need of some help. I asked a friend of mine to help me with some of the things I wanted to get done on the site. One of them being moving user log in.log out information to the top left corner and a nav bar to the to right. Upon my friends completion with this task, bars started to show up on the left and right sides of vBulletin and vBadvanced. I would like these removed but my friend is stumped. He doesn't seem to be seeing them but myself and everyone else I've asked does. Does Anyone have any ideas on how I can resolve this issue? It would be GREATLY appreciated.

Thanks,
James

A picture will probably help. Or a link to the forum so we can take a look at the source code (whoops, I saw you did post a link).

And one more edit.... I don't see these bars you are talking about. Perhaps a picture will help.

Absolutely:

And thanks for showing interest in helping me with my problem =D

I don't see the bars on the site either, but tbh i think they look kinda cool.

It looks like somehow a background image was added and it happens to be the same as the category strips.

OK, I just looked at your CSS and under .alt2 and .alt2, you have this for the background url "url(images/dark_vb_v2/gradients/)" That does not look valid to me (the actual image name isn't given) and I wonder if that is causing you problems. The same thing under .panel ("images/gradients/gradient_panel" is invalid)

It looks as if your navbar's gradient, which starts at the very top (above header), is repeating vertically. Whenever you set a background image you should always set the properties. In your line of code you have:

Code:

style="background-image:url(images/dark_vb_v2/misc/nav_x.gif)"

Try changing that to:

Code:

style="background:#000000 url(images/dark_vb_v2/misc/nav_x.gif) repeat-x top left"

Thanks so much for your help. That fixed part of the problem. Now, instead of there being bars on the sides, it's just black. It takes up the same amount of space as the bars did but it's just black. If requested, I'll post a screenshot. Ideas?

Thanks! =D

Edit: Okay, the black bars are gone. Problem solved =D

Now there's another issue. The width of the Forum, User CP, Front Page, etc. has become inconsistent. It's thinner on the front page and post pages than it is on the forum and User CP pages. Any ideas on that one?

I'm glad the first problem is resolved.

As for your current issue, if possible, please take screenshots (and point out what you want changed) so we can compare the style inconsistencies.

No problem. Here they are:

Home

Forum (Wider than Home page)

Threads (About the same as Home, but a little wider)

Thanks so much for the help!

You'll need to play around with the Main Table Width (in StyleVars).
