smf does not directly provide support for mods made by others. you can still post in the support thread and hope for support from a user of the mod. or you can contact the theme author and hope they would provide support for the issue.

Have you done the obvious and checked the theme's paths?

Their themes can be a real pain in the arse.

Sorry, not a clue.

Outline is actually quite easy to work with. It was the one that got me started way back when I first started theming.

Give us a link to the problem.

Your top bar has some messed up css:

Code Select

.some{margin-left:1%}
.some img.youtubetwitter{float:left;margin-top:5%;vertical-align: middle}
.some img.facebook{float:left;margin-top:8%;vertical-align: middle}
}

Should be:

Code Select

.some{margin-left:1%;}
.some img.youtubetwitter{float:left;margin-top:5%;vertical-align: middle;}
.some img.facebook{float:left;margin-top:8%;vertical-align: middle;}

You also have some html errors: http://validator.w3.org/check?verbose=1&uri=http%3A%2F%2Fmyphpsite.20x.cc%2F

The important ones are these:

Error Line 83, Column 222: end tag for "img" omitted, but OMITTAG NO was specified

..."-" src="http://myphpsite.20x.cc/Themes/outline_20rc3/images/collapse.gif"></a>

Error Line 96, Column 34: end tag for "tr" which is not finished

<tr id="shoutbox_msgs"></tr>

Most likely, you nested tags and closed them in the wrong order. For example ... is not acceptable, as must be closed before . Acceptable nesting is: ...

Another possibility is that you used an element which requires a child element that you did not include. Hence the parent element is "not finished", not complete. For instance, in HTML the <head> element must contain a <title> child element, lists require appropriate list items (<ul> and <ol> require <li>; <dl> requires <dt> and <dd>), and so on.

Error Line 104, Column 112: end tag for "param" omitted, but OMITTAG NO was specified

...tp://myphpsite.20x.cc/Themes/default/shoutbox.swf?dir=http://myphpsite.20x.cc">

You may have neglected to close an element, or perhaps you meant to "self-close" an element, that is, ending it with "/>" instead of ">".
Info Line 104, Column 4: start tag was here

<param name="movie" value="http://myphpsite.20x.cc/Themes/default/shoutbox.s...

Error Line 105, Column 39: end tag for "param" omitted, but OMITTAG NO was specified

<param name="quality" value="high">

You may have neglected to close an element, or perhaps you meant to "self-close" an element, that is, ending it with "/>" instead of ">".
Info Line 105, Column 4: start tag was here

<param name="quality" value="high">

Error Line 248, Column 6: end tag for element "div" which is not open

</div>

The Validator found an end tag for the above element, but that element is not currently open. This is often caused by a leftover end tag from an element that was removed during editing, or by an implicitly closed element (if you have an error related to an element being used where it is not allowed, this is almost certainly the case). In the latter case this error will disappear as soon as you fix the original problem.

If this error occurred in a script section of your document, you should probably read this FAQ entry.
