Suite Style - IPB3 Style to vB4

IPB3 Style on vB4 Suite

A simple port featuring styling from IPB3. Features some new thread marker icons. Changed around the search box to allow more room for the navigation bar to spread out if sites have more than normal tabs. Be aware that for the tab size it is 120px for the tab image alone. Don't make your site width shorter than your navbar tabs width. Otherwise you'll break it. For any additional header image it's suggested to use the following template to insert them into. AdminCP->Styles & Templates->Style Manager->IPB Style->Edit Templates. Select Ad Location Tempaltes->ad_global_header1. It's a blank template so just insert the image code.

To Install:
PLEASE Revert all templates before upgrading. I've scaled down on templates that are modified to 3 (additional.css, vbulletin-chrome.css, and footer.css)


* GoTo AdminCP->Styles & Templates->Download / Upload Styles and import the xml file into a new style
* FTP the image folder into your root forum directory. This will create a directory images/IPB.


I've checked out the layout for IE 7, Firefox 3, Safari 4, and Chrome. Any other browsers I haven't see what it looks like. IE6 may have some issues because of the png files.


Included is the zip file:
Image Directory with images.
XML File to import
PSD logo to add your own logo/graphics

In other words, you want to be clicking on a plus sign to expand and on a minus sign to collapse. They're also a bit too low / out of line in the Posting Permissions block at the bottom of the forumdisplay and showthread pages.

Updated the images to show correctly and the thread markers. Except the custom ones.

I've adjusted this in the update. Your navbar tabs have too many for use with the search bar. That is what is breaking the layout.

If you don't mind send me a pm with a link. So I can see where it's breaking.

Can do better, don't like it, very poor quality, but thanks anyways.
Get a look to an IPB3 adaptation on vB 3.8.4 : http://www.xtaze.net..

Why are my Forum Category Strips purple? installed the 4.0.2 version.

It seems that the th_bg.png file that should be in the images>ibp>tabs folder is not. The text in the forum categories is also different. Similar issue? Thanks
