Black and Gold 3.5

As promised I have ported over my popular Black and Gold style from vB 3.0.X to vB 3.5 and I have also made some minor changes to it. I received a lot of requests to apply the category spacing modification to the old version; however, due to time constraints I was never able to get that completed but have included it with this release (If you would like a version without this please let me know and I can release it as well.) I also modified a few of the images but the majority of them remain the same as in the previous version.

As always please let me know of any issues with the style - I tested it pretty thoroughly and wasn't able to find anything out of place but I have missed things before.

Update 3/05/2006 Version 1.50
* Updated the .XML file for vBulletin 3.5.4.
* Added reworked status icons for the threads courtesy of dvsDave.

Update 11/20/2005 Version 1.40
* Updated the .XML file for vBulletin 3.5.1.
* Current users need just revert the two templates that changed since 3.5.1.

Update 10/24/2005 Version 1.30
* Added new IM icons created by Lecter - No changes made to the XML file.

Update 10/08/2005 Version 1.20
* Fixed display problem when using outer table widths of anything other than 100%
* Modified "forumhome_forumbit_level1_nopost" template.

Update 9/29/2005 Version 1.10
* Added "attach.gif" and "spelling.gif" to the "/images/bgold/editor/" directory.
* Added matching subforum status icons.
* Modified "forumhome_forumbit_level1_post" template.

Cheers mate - Do you mind if I add that link to the style information to make it easier for people to find ?

Ever since I set this theme as my default, users have been saying that when they try to visit the site they're directed to www.mydomain.com/profile.php rather than www.mydomain.com/forums/profile.php
Is there a place in the theme that I could edit a path?

However, with 80+ installs I am sure someone here has a working version that you could take a look at.

Well, you were right. Your style was not the master style, it was a child style and therefore picked up the mistake I had in the master style. I got it all resolved.

Thank you

Are you using vBAdvanced or another portal ? If sp can you check to make sure you have your paths set correctly - Also you might have to edit your navbar template to contain the full URL to your pages (I.E. - Change usercp.php to http://www.domain.com/directory/usercp.php)

I'm using VBPortal and the only path I know that I could set is in the Forum admin where it's set correctly.

I tried to register on your forum to take a look but I got placed in a moderation queue ... Just for future reference you might want to allow members awaiting moderation to view the forums. You allow guests to view them but not members awaiting moderation - To me that just doesn't make too much sense. Let me know when I get moderated so I can take a closer look.

I approved you.
Sorry about that, I did this recently because I was having trouble with a few users using proxies and registering a bunch of times.

I looked around and couldn't find a broken link to profile.php anywhere - Could you ask your users that reported the problem which specific links were not working ?

Certainly, Andrew. In fact, I'd be honored.
