Installation Instructions -

1. Download the zip file to your computer and extract it (I put it on my desktop, it's easier to remember where I put it. I do suggest moving the zip after installation to a folder on your computer so you have it as a back-up - just in case ).
2. Open your ftp client to your server. Go to your forum's images folder, open it, and create a styles folder.
3. Next, upload the beige folder via FTP to the styles folder that you created, so that your image path is images/styles/beige/buttons, for example.
4. After you've uploaded the images, 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.
5. Click on the Browse button, locate the beige-style.xml file, and double-click it so that it loads in that box, then hit the Import button.
6. Don't forget to click on Mark as Installed, if you use this style.

If you have any questions or run into a snag, feel free to post your question here, or at my site.

Enjoy!


Note: It's been brought to my attention that clicking on 'Go Advanced' on the Quick Reply editor brought up a security token error. I have located and fixed the problem, and placed a new xml file in the download zip package.

If you're experiencing this issue, please download the zip again and re-import the xml file, overwriting the existing xml.

Thanks!

Thanks everyone.

I had removed the download due to the numerous issues that a couple of people are having with the style, and asked a member of staff to remove the thread, but they didn't get around to it.

I'll put the zip file back up, but if these issues continue I'll have to remove it.

I absolutely love this style, but I am having an issue as well with it. I hope you know how to solve it because I don't want to lose it!!

Whenever I click on Go Advanced for a post, it gives me the error:

"Your submission could not be processed because a security token was missing.

If this occurred unexpectedly, please inform the administrator and describe the action you performed before you received this error."

It does not happen on the default style. Do you know the work around on this?

[Ohiosweetheart]

All fixed! See first post.

Ohiosweetheart I have one question...
In your style when I show any forum, it is "highlighted" (Changes color to a brighter).
How to do it in other style?

[Ohiosweetheart]

to be perfectly honest, I don't remember the code.

This style was my signature theme on my site, and a friend gave me the code to use on it. That was over a year ago, and I've never used it on another site.

If I'm not mistaken tho, I think I've seen a mod here on vb.org that does this.

[Ohiosweetheart]

I'll do my best

Clicking Home and UserCP takes you to another site.

Look in the header template for this style, find the navbar section, and in twio places, change the url from www.themesbydesign.net, to yours.

i love this style. i shall download it.
quick question though, the postbit legacy style of posting (i.e. showing the posters biodata on the left) could it be brought to normal as in default vbulletin style? cause i like it on top rather than having it on the left or the right side
