Outline is an elegant and modern SMF theme using light, grey and deep red colors.

Very good :D
Bikken the artist! I love your work in smf... best smf theme designer ever!
nice one! 8)
I really like this theme. Thanks, Bikken.
But it seems that i can´t "adapt" the new logo from the psd-file correctly. (see screen)

What am i doing wrong? :-[
Bikken, it's a lovely theme and we've already downloaded it for our test forum but I have a question.
While the general layout, etc is great is it possible to make the centre section wider and reduce the width of the margins? There is a lot of wasted screen there and some people find that annoying. If it was possible to have a clickable margin width a la Bloc's Mesh theme that would be perfect.
I think that now SMF's themes are getting near to the levels of IPB or phpBB.
Congrats for such a good theme!
Wow! That is an excellent theme you've done there, and with tinyportal combined it looks superb :)
Keep up the good work! ;)
nice Work
Awesome work, it looks so clean.
Woah! Very nice. Been a VERY long time since i've seen a good theme such as this.

Any help here would be great.
Thanks a lot for your positive feedback guys! :)
@ BT-loader: Is that in IE ? Try to save your logo as jpg and change logo.png to logo.jpg in style.css.
@ antechinus: You can edit the width in style.css. Search for #wrapper and change width to whatever you like. Use either px or %.

Yes, i looked at the new theme in ie7. It seems to look better in ff (as usual). ;)
I´m gonna try to re-make and save the new logo in jpg. Thanks for your reply.
Can we use buttons instead of text links?
Hi Bikken
Just a little note ... it doesn't notify admin on the frontpage that there are new member registrations waiting for approval. Anyway to add that?
I've got so many memberships pending for approval ... and I didn't even realized them until I went to the registration side in the admin panel.
Thanks!

Goddam! I found it and it works! My first ever SMF code edit. Cool.
I set the width to 1100px (up from 950) and its great. Thanks for that. Now, about the font size.......

Mr Z, I just tried messing around and found out how to get the text in quotes up to a reasonable size.
I'm still looking for the way to do it for actual posts. Anyway, for quotes find this block in the style.css
/* A quote, perhaps from another post. */
.quote {
color: #3a3a3a;
background-color: #cecece;
border-top: 4px solid #959595;
border-bottom: 4px solid #959595;
margin: 1px;
padding: 1px;
font-size: x-small;
line-height: 1.4em;
Change font-size: x-small; to font-size: small;

That's possible but you'll have to modify index.template file.
Look for:
/* Use plain buttons - as oppossed to text buttons? */
$settings['use_buttons'] = true;change "true" to "false".
Then at the bottom of the file find:
// Generate a strip of buttons.
function template_button_strip($button_strip, $direction = 'top', $force_reset = false, $custom_td = '')
{
global $settings, $buttons, $context, $txt, $scripturl;
// Create the buttons...
foreach ($button_strip as $key => $value)
{
if (isset($value['test']) && empty($context[$value['test']]))
{
unset($button_strip[$key]);
continue;
}
elseif (!isset($buttons[$key]) || $force_reset)
$buttons[$key] = '<a href="' . $value['url'] . '" ' .( isset($value['custom']) ? $value['custom'] : '') . '>' . $txt[$value['text']] . '</a>';
$button_strip[$key] = $buttons[$key];
}
if (empty($button_strip))
return '<td> </td>';
echo '
<td class="', $direction == 'top' ? 'main' : 'mirror', 'tab_' , $context['right_to_left'] ? 'last' : 'first' , '"> </td>
<td class="', $direction == 'top' ? 'main' : 'mirror', 'tab_back">', implode(' | ', $button_strip) , '</td>
<td class="', $direction == 'top' ? 'main' : 'mirror', 'tab_' , $context['right_to_left'] ? 'first' : 'last' , '"> </td>';
}replace with:
// Generate a strip of buttons.
function template_button_strip($button_strip, $direction = 'top', $force_reset = false, $custom_td = '')
{
global $settings, $buttons, $context, $txt, $scripturl;
if (empty($button_strip))
return '';
// Create the buttons...
foreach ($button_strip as $key => $value)
{
if (isset($value['test']) && empty($context[$value['test']]))
{
unset($button_strip[$key]);
continue;
}
elseif (!isset($buttons[$key]) || $force_reset)
$buttons[$key] = '<a href="' . $value['url'] . '" ' .( isset($value['custom']) ? $value['custom'] : '') . '>' . ($settings['use_image_buttons'] ? '<img src="' . $settings['images_url'] . '/' . ($value['lang'] ? $context['user']['language'] . '/' : '') . $value['image'] . '" alt="' . $txt[$value['text']] . '" border="0" />' : $txt[$value['text']]) . '</a>';
$button_strip[$key] = $buttons[$key];
}
echo '
<td ', $custom_td, '>', implode($context['menu_separator'], $button_strip) , '</td>';
}
@antechinus - that worked for both code and quotes, now if we can only get the damn post text size to a readable level ;D

Hi, yes it's possible to do that.
Open index.template file and find:
echo '
<a href="', $scripturl, '?action=unread">', $txt['unread_since_visit'], '</a><br />
<a href="', $scripturl, '?action=unreadreplies">', $txt['show_unread_replies'], '</a><br />';add right after:
// Are there any members waiting for approval?
if (!empty($context['unapproved_members']))
echo '
', $context['unapproved_members'] == 1 ? $txt['approve_thereis'] : $txt['approve_thereare'], ' <a href="', $scripturl, '?action=viewmembers;sa=browse;type=approve">', $context['unapproved_members'] == 1 ? $txt['approve_member'] : $context['unapproved_members'] . ' ' . $txt['approve_members'], '</a> ', $txt['approve_members_waiting'], '<br />';You'll probably have to play with the height in #userarea in style.css.

Open style.css and search for:
body, td, th, tr {
line-height: 150%;
font-family: tahoma, sans-serif;
color: #555555;
font-size: 11px;
}Change 11px to whatever you like.
Thank you :D
Excellent. Thanks.
Hang on. Just changed it from 11 to 14. Post text still looks the same size.
Try Hard Refreshing(Ctrl + F5)
Thanks. Worked a treat. I can now actually read Outline. Yay!
For anyone else that's interested my opinion is that the best settings are 1050px 1020px for wrapper, small instead of x-small for code and quote text, and 13 point rather than the original 11 for general text. Anything larger than 13 looks clumsy and 13 is easy to read.
Thanks for your help, Bikken and Dragoon.
i agree.
One last question. Which setting controls the username font size. looks too small now in comparision to the 13px of the normal text.
thanks

Criticism accepted but assuming that i make themes with a bigger font-size, then what to say to those (like me) who wants it the way it is now?
Everyone has a different taste and needs. Some people want other colors, some prefer an other font/font-size, some want a smaller layout while others like it at 100%, etc.. It's not possible to make everyone happy. I will always make the themes the way i like them and would use them myself and believe me, i do pay attention to detail when it comes to layout and legible text. While making a theme, i check them on different pc's/browsers all the time just to find out how things (layout, content) looks best to me. I know that it may not look perfect for everyone else and that's why i try to give as much as possible support here and on my own site to help those people with these small edits. But most importantly, before asking the theme authors to pay more attention, try to enjoy their work and support you get for free.
I forgot to say, thanks so much for this theme bikken. :)
I hope you make many more :D

Fair points. Believe it or not I do appreciate your work and support, which is why I went to the trouble of finding out how to make your theme usable for me (rather than just dismissing it as pretty but useless) and then made a point of thanking both yourself and Dragoon for helping me get there.
I don't know what monitors you use but all my online work is done on an Asus laptop with a 15" flat screen which may make a difference. Your monitor is probably considerably better and therefore the 11 point text is not a problem.
The last post I made before this one was not an attempt to have a go at you, merely a suggestion on settings for anyone like myself and Mr.Z.
Once again, thanks for the theme and your help and apologies for any unintended offense.
Ah don't worry about it bro, i just gave you my opinion on your thoughts. ;)
I guess screens can make a huge difference. I have a 17" and 19" screen with both resolutions set at 1280x1024 and tahoma 11px shows perfectly fine on those.

User name in forum posts. Sorry for not being more specific

So I probably should refrain from giving you my thoughts on your opinion of my thoughts. :D
Yep, I think the bigger monitors would make a difference. The Asus is good but it isn't intended for high grade design work.
I should probably experiment with screen resolutions a bit.
Anyway I've been getting questions from the members about new post icons. Is it possible to bold "New" (in the sub-forum pages) without altering any other text?
The other thing I'd like is to move the search box down into the same plane as the nav tree on the home page. I think it'd blend in better there but still be perfectly usable. Then the user area could be lowered to align with the index toolbar.
I like the simple layout and standard colours and I think these changes would go well with that.
Bikken, I get the template parse error ... what could possibly be the issue?

Hi I got it there now but after I have approved the member ... it is now showing in the userarea
Guest Login instead of the announcement telling how many members are waiting for approval.
Can you help?

If you use the news fader it'll work fine. We've got it running on our forum at the moment. Just disable "News" and enable the "News Fader" (to avoid duplication), then type your news into the boxes in the "News and Newsletters" section of your admin panel.
This should solve your second problem as well I think (haven't actually tried it yet).
Sorry, can't help you with #3.
Btw, I found the standard fade time of 5000 is too fast for anything longer than a line or two of news.
Somewhere between 10000 and 15000 seems to be good.
my favourite theme.

That looks like a custom Display.template file. So you should ask this where you got that file.
hey i always try to figure out things myself without disturbing you all geeks but couldn't help this time.Actually, i just installed the outline theme after ferry temma.I have many questions.
1.) the shoutbox is not appearing.I use neneo shout box
So, added this code in the article
// YSHOUT HERE
echo '
<br /><b>Shout Box</b><br /><br />
<div id="yshout">',$txt['yshout_loading'],'<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /></div>';
// YSHOUT END
It worked in the ferry temma.But in the outline theme isn't appearing.I went to the official site.Got someone asking the same question "here" (http://www.dzinerstudio.com/index.php?topic=408)
he said that he was asked to add :
// display shoutbox
if (function_exists('sbox')) sbox();
JUST AFTER
function template_main()
{
global $context, $settings, $options, $txt, $scripturl, $modSettings;
I did the same, nothing happened.
Actually i am new to this editing.how do you edit these files? By my computer knowledge, i did the following, copied the boardindex.template.php from that theme on my desktop edited using word editor and uploaded back(replaced the original)
Secondly, some pictures don't work on this theme which used to work on ferry temma.
Like Mark all messages as read images, new image and some other image(i am finding those)
So, if someone will answer in simple computer knowledge and be as descriptive as i have been, i will really appreciate.
Looking forward.
Thank you
Nitish. :D
i downloaded it, then went to extract, it says error reading, i deleted downloaded again and it said error extracting. Any ideas ?
think the design is great
Hello,
my forum have theme- "outline" . My forum have serbian Language.I change language, but, in navigation still stay word "search" . How i can change word "search" to word "pretraga" ?
Thank you
Open up index.template file and find the "Search" button near the bottom of that file and replace your code with:
// How about the [search] button?
if ($context['allow_search'])
echo '<li><a' , $current_action=='search' ? ' class="current"' : '' , ' href="', $scripturl, '?action=search"><span>' , $txt[182] , '</span></a></li>';
thanks
It it possible to chance the width of the template? I want it a little smaller where it is category name and bigger there it is 'how many posts' and 'the newest post'.
One other thing. Is it possible to disable to collapse the categories?
Thank you all so much!
Thanks for this great theme! I really love the colors. I have a simple (for you all) question about how to link the logo to my main website. I've searched for the logo.png text and can't find it. I know this is something probably easy but please help if you have time! TIA

Hi, you can do that in index.template file. Find this line:
<a href="'.$scripturl.'" title=""><span id="logo"> </span></a>';and replace it with (change url to your liking):
<a href="http://www.yoursite.com" title=""><span id="logo"> </span></a>';
Can some one give me specific code edits to install the ad management mod on this theme because I tried but it didn't work.
Try this post (http://www.dzinerstudio.com/index.php?topic=240.msg1273#msg1273) Pond_Hockey. Let me know if you need more help.
Alright thanks, and how do I remove and edit the Outline Logo.
There is a psd file available in downloads to edit the logo.
Just upload/replace your new logo in Outline/images/custom.
Really nice! Someone do manage to theme SMF proper.

Got a question for you, Bikken. Friend of mine would like me to do her a pink version of Outline. Now I know it's cool to modify a theme for use on my own site, but in this case I'd be modding it for someone else (even though I'm a member there) and passing the files on to her.
Are you ok with this? I'm happy to leave the copyright as is.
Sure, go ahead antechinus.
Cool. Thanks for that. I'll post the result over at your place once I get it up to standard.
Ok, it's done and is posted at Bikken's place. (http://www.dzinerstudio.com/index.php?topic=979.msg6820;topicseen#new) 8)

*Theme has been updated with a version for SMF 2.0b3
You rock man, I hope you keep supporting this theme for 2.0 :D
Cumps and good work ;)
Hi, I love this theme and it's in implementation at my forum (http://www.desiwriterslounge.net/forums/index.php) mostly edited. I have a question, however. I've been able to add in extra tabs easily except when it comes to the bookmarks (http://custom.simplemachines.org/mods/index.php?mod=864) mod. The suggested code for the default theme is this: 'bookmark' => array('text' => 'bookmark_add', 'test' => 'edit_profile', 'lang' => true, 'url' => $scripturl . '?action=bookmarks;sa=add;topic=' . $context['current_topic']), but it isn't working, because it isn't in the same format. I really need this to work since our members have been requesting this, so please please please help! :) TIA.
Oh and also, I tried this but it didn't work either:
if ($context['user']['is_logged'])
echo '<li><a' , $current_action=='bookmarks' ? ' class="current"' : '' , ' href="', $scripturl, '?action=bookmarks"><span>' , $txt[2] , '</span></a></li>';
I also added 'bookmarks' to the current action array. The URL of the bookmarks section is "index.php?action=bookmarks'. Don't really know what I'm doing wrong, so any help on this would really be appreciated.
mp213,
Open your themes index.template file and add these lines to your array
if ($context['current_action'] == 'bookmarks')
$current_action = 'bookmarks';
And for the custom "bookmark" tab add these lines (under // Show the start of the tab section.)
// Show the [Bookmarks] button.
//if ($context['user']['is_logged'])
echo '<li><a' , $current_action=='bookmarks' ? ' class="current"' : '' , ' href="', $scripturl, '?action=bookmarks"><span>' , 'Bookmarks' , '</span></a></li>';
I was meaning to get back to this earlier. I figured it out yesterday...incidentally, with the nearly exact duplicate code as you've given, Bec. But thanks anyway! :)
Hey, is this compatible with 1.1.5? I want to upgrade to it, because there's a Drafts mod my members are asking for and that's only compatible with 1.1.5. Besides, I figure it's good to be updated and stuff. TIA.
Hi mp213, it sure is. I am running 1.15 on my site and have also just installed the drafts mod as well and it all works perfectly :)
Thanks a lot, Bec! :)
Your welcome :)
mp213, as far as themes themselves go there is no difference between 1.1.4 and 1.1.5
1.1.5 just fixed a few minor glitches in the matrix, so to speak. The themes never noticed. ;)
I love this theme! I would really like to have coppermine converted into this theme. I know its a tall order, but I think it would be worth it. Anyone?
I think there has already been a request for this over at Dziner Studio. I'm sure I saw it recently but can't remember which thread it was in. Suggest you go have a look around in the themes area of the forum there.
Thanks, I've posted there.
And for beta 4? ;)
I had a brief look at it and the Beta3 version of Outline seems to be ok with Beta 4.
When go out the theme Outline to support the Tiny Portal for sfm 2 beta 4?
Ask Bloc. He just loves being asked about SMF 2 and TP. :P
Actually he'll probably shoot you if you ask. The TP team are not going to worry about SMF 2 until it is fully stable. They wont waste their time working with betas.
Roger that ;)
any updates for SMF 2.0 Beta 4? i love this theme.....
nice, very professional!
This theme is available for 2 beta 4. If it isn't linked from the OP click my sig and go to the DS downloads area. ;)
I have a big space between the top of a reply and the actual reply. How do I fix that? Using FF and the newest version of Outline/SMF 2.0 beta.
Screenshot or link to your site would be handy. Also are you talking about FF2 or FF3?
It's not just in FF 3, it's in Opera and IE as well.
Shouldn't be any dramas with it because I'm running it on my test site and it's fine (live site still 1.1.7).
Have you made any modifications to the theme?
We were running great with outline until we changed to a halloween theme for a couple of days. then we changed back to outline and had this:
(https://www.simplemachines.org/community/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fi79.photobucket.com%2Falbums%2Fj146%2Frobinsligar%2Fth_FKI-screencap.png&hash=70971f99c152a8f213cc5335774f687dc6bb62dd) (http://s79.photobucket.com/albums/j146/robinsligar/?action=view¤t=FKI-screencap.png)
and, no, I don't have any modifications on it except for the site logo.
Hell, that's a mess. Never seen that before. Have you tried resetting the theme paths in admin? That might sort it.
:D yes it is! and how would I go about trying to reset them?
Admin >> Themes and Layout >> Theme Settings .......scroll down the page...... >> Attempt to reset all themes.
I tried like you said and it's still the same.
Have you cleared cache/cookies and hard refreshed your browser (Ctrl+F5)?
I have, plus the others in my admin team have as well. Maybe it's in the page source? This is what one co admin sent me:
(https://www.simplemachines.org/community/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fi19.photobucket.com%2F%253Cbr%2520%2F%253Ealbums%2Fb173%2Fkystanger%2FKU-MC%2Fth_sourcecode1.jpg&hash=acc9d8759ee3a654e8d7c288ec5bee94df770e86) (http://s19.photobucket.com/albums/b173/kystanger/KU-MC/sourcecode1.jpg)
Nope, they're wrong. That code is fine and in any case it'd only bollix the menubar if it was wrong. You obviously have a problem with Display.template.php (and maybe some other templates as well).
The thing is that file is called from the default theme. Outline doesn't have it's own file. Is the SMF default theme ok or does it look messed up too?
Default theme is fine. Is there a way I can let you see the source file?
Wouldn't matter. K, this is very strange. I can see the source code straight off your web page anyway. That's easy. I'll go take a look and see if anything stands out.
Got a link?
www.fantasyknightsinn.com/smf3/index.php
I can't see the forum.
oops,

Password incorrect. :P
Anyway I'm out of time. I'll ask Bikken to take a look.
@ RobinSlig
The reason why the theme looks messed up is because you're using a wrong version of Outline. You're using outline2.0b3 which is not compatible with SMF 2.0b4 cause of the many css changes in this beta.
Just download and install the below version and your problem should be fixed.
http://www.dzinerstudio.com/index.php?action=tpmod;dl=item65
That'd do it. ::)
thank you! it works great now!
Forgive me if it has been covered, I've looked and didn't see it.
The ability to lock, and sticky topics for admin and moderators doesn't
seem to be available.
Is that a bug?
- -
Okay,
Father Luke
It's available. It's a standard feature of all SMF themes.
@ Antechinus:
Found it.
But. . .
The search is not working.
I get this:
An Error Has Occurred!
Unable to load the 'Search' template.
Is this because of the upgrade to 1.1.8?
- -
Okay,
Father Luke
Not sure. It should work. Outline calls that template from the default theme. Can you use search on the default theme?
@ Antechinus:
Yes. I can.
I must mention, that I did
a fresh install on a test server
and everything works just fine.
But I am having troubles with the
theme on the current site. Also?
The theme rawks entire continents. Really a great theme.
Anyway. yeah. I can use the search with the other themes,
just not Outine. I CMOD's the entire Outline folder 777 just to
see if that made a difference. Unfortunately it was no different.
- -
Okay,
Father Luke
This is odd. I'll do some testing and see what turns up. Which version of Outline are you using? Is it plain SMF or one of the Tiny Portal versions?
Odd indeed.
I am using outline115 for SMF.
I am using it on 1.1.8 - two sites:
Here it works:
http://dev.literarymary.com/test/index.php
(fresh install no mods, etc.)
Here it does not work:
http://dev.literarymary.com/forum/
(development site for a forum being moved form one host to another - heavy with mods)
- -
Okay,
Father Luke
Do any of your mods have anything to do with search? I have a suspicion that the problem is that some of your mods have been installed manually on Outline and the edits aren't all correct. It's probably best if you list the mods.

Outline has no mods installed. It is a fresh install, and the mods haven't been manually coded in.

Okay,
Father Luke
Yes, so on the site where it does not work you have piles of mods. Are any of these mods installed on the Outline theme or are they only installed on the SMF default theme?
Default only.
Outline was my my theme of choice.
Not to be an apologist, but I am taking over as Tech-Admin for the site.
I want Outline. In fact it is going to be the default theme for the site.
So, those mods you see? Most of them will be history.
As I am writing this a MySQL database import is under way
using BigDump: Staggered MySQL Dump Importer. I will probably
end up just junking the old set up, the one with the search error, and
beginning fresh.
It is odd, but you know what? Don't worry about it too much. As heavily modded
as the thing is it could be anything. I get zero errors on a fresh install with a clean
database. So that is where I'm going to begin.
The Outline theme is flawless, sleek, artistic, and fresh. Search the problem if you
like, but it's not to worry.
Thanks for responding, but I'm sure it is not worth investigating at this point.
Cheers, mate. Great theme!

Well that makes it easy for me then. By the way I have a few nifty templates for Outline up my sleeve if you're interested.

I'm interested.
I'm an admin of a writing forum.
The Owner fell in love with Outline.
I mean - She really fell in love with it - and then I told her
that She would have the option of switching themes
(something she has wanted for a couple of years).
Only thing is? I just now found TinyPortal. I think that
TinyPortal will solve the:
"Can we have a front page that looks like the rest of the forum?"
questions she has offered to me. I'm looking into that. TinyPortal is new to me.
So. If you have TinyPortal templates handy, keep them in the ready also.
Feel free to PM me with details. Or better yet, post them here.
Outline is great. Thanks for all you do.

There is already a TP version of Outline. There are also a stack of good variations on the theme done by myself and others.
My ones are mostly in this: http://custom.simplemachines.org/themes/index.php?lemma=991
and there are some other good ones here: http://www.dzinerstudio.com/index.php?board=18.0
Theme updated for SMF 2.0 RC3
How do i make it purple?
I made a purple one ages ago for 1.1.x. http://www.dzinerstudio.com/index.php?topic=1317.0
You could nick the images and hex codes from that if you like.
Hello,
Is anyone else noticing some formatting issues in the stats area with RC4? I am not sure if it is due to a mod or RC4. See attached image for the issue.
Thanks
Here's a compressed version of the 2.0 theme, with 13.5 K shaved off the images and 23.2K shaved off the CSS.
Interesting. I'll take a look at that. I once made a version for my own use, that used sprites a la Curve.
I'm using it on my site, and people LOVE it. All I did was put in my own logo.
Sprites would be awesome :)
Can't find the one I did, but it was pretty easy. Only took me a couple of hours IIRC. I just merged the footer left and right images into one, and used similar css to position that one image for each div. Merged the header left and right, header and footer bg, shadow left and right, bodyarea bg, and titlebg/catbg images into one narrow vertical strip, with basic css positioning by px for height. Merged all the menu images into one as well. Result was three images doing the work of the original fourteen. Byte count went through the floor compared to the originals too.
Oh and that version had drop menus too, with the drop bg image being part of the menu sprite.
