Out Of The Box is a free vBulletin style that is designed for a business or professional-type forum, altho anyone can use it!

This styles features -
  • a relocated navigation bar and login/member info
  • optimized for postbit legacy
  • a side column for ads, links, affiliates, partners, etc.
  • valid XHTML 1.0 Transitional

Installation Instructions -
  1. Click on the "Install" button on the right of this post, then 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!).
  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 redbox folder via FTP to your server, into the styles folder, so that your image path is images/styles/redbox/buttons, for example.
  4. After you've uploaded the folder, 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 redbox-style.xml, and double-click it, so it loads in that box, then hit the Import button.

You'll find a blank images folder in the zip file, containing blank buttons and the logo for the header, all in PNG format for easy editing.

If you would like this style customized for your forum, please read here.

NOTES: Don't forget to replace the Google Adsense code with your own. You'll find it in the navbar template, in the breadcrumb code.

The side column code is in the the FORUMHOME template, and clearly marked.
I have placed our affiliates ads and our partner links on the demo so that you can see how it looks. When you install this style, you'll see "Text Goes Here".

You also have alot of space to the right of the logo, in the header template, to place banner ads.

Enjoy!

Revert the header and navbar templates. This will take the navbar out of the header and put it back in the navbar template.

To remove the side column, open the FORUMHOME template and find <!-- Start of Side Menu -->. Delete all the way down to, and including, <!-- /End of Side Menu -->

I've installed the style and would have to say its the best of see'n. I've been looking for ages to find a style that would work for my new forum VLAERO.

One question i have installed the arcarde and was wondering how i get the button on the top nav bar.

Also i'd be interested in getting some custom work done email me at info@vlaero.com.au
