Hi Diego,

Mate, nice theme. Can you change out the GN in the corners and change out the faded background for another picture of log?

Yes in theme settings you can put your logo's URL.
And you can just replace the image in Themes/GamingNation/images/theme/background.jpg

Thanks mate, when we are talking images, I'm talking about the one in the centre Botton footer (GN)
And the same in the very top left hand corner ?

Yes, precisely. You can replace them in the theme settings.

Appreciated, Would it be to much to ask how you would change the category icons ?

cheers

GREAT theme :)
I love it !

Not specifically a theme question but............

I have two extra fields in profile (using Advanced Profile Fields)

return from one is "F1/Drag Racing" and from the other is "Lewis Hamilton"  (se image atta)
How do I force the returns to be on different lines ?

Thanks in advance :)

Hello, thanks for the fantastic theme. I have a question: the box for login users in the rigth-top of the theme fails to register or login users in smf 2.0.14. I solve this?
Thnkas a lot.

Yes I still have to update my themes on the smf site.
You can also check this and fix it: https://www.simplemachines.org/community/index.php?topic=553902.0

Nice theme!

I'm trying set the images for carousel with the admin menu, but don't work to me. What the correct link should I insert there?
What the right size for the image?

Thanks and congratulations for the nice work!

It has been updated!

I'm very happy this theme is updated.  The Gaming Nation theme is very attractive, clean, and readable to my older eyes. :o  Extremely well done, Diego.

This is my first time at the customization rodeo, however. I had to make some minor, minor changes to the last iteration of your theme, mostly to default font colors and sizes in a couple of places and a custom background image to bring my forum in step with my main website's design.

I apologize if this newbie question has been asked a hundred times already, but...is it possible to update the theme to the 2.0.14 version without losing the customized changes to the current version? If not, I'll be at peace with that and manually do all the customization again, but if there's a way to save time while still deriving all the benefits of the update, I'd be thankful to know what that is, too.

All good wishes, and I look forward to your answer.  Cheers!

You only need to search for this in the index.template.php
<input type="hidden" name="hash_passwrd" value="" />
and replace it whut
<input type="hidden" name="hash_passwrd" value="" /><input type="hidden" name="', $context['session_var'], '" value="', $context['session_id'], '" />

And that's it  :)

Thank you very much! I can actually manage that.  ;D

Have a great week, Diego.

Hi again.  Is there anything else besides the index.template.php file that has been updated?  Despite my best efforts, I'm still experiencing the log-in error, "Your session timed out while posting. Please go back and try again." It doesn't occur every time I try to log in, but when it does (at least once a day), it takes repeated attempts and several page-refreshes before the log-in goes through.

Was just wondering if there's anything else I can try?  Thanks in advance for your thoughts and your help.

Is it happening using the quick login, or in the action=login of your forum?

Hi, Diego. Thank you for your reply. :)

Action=login only.  We don't use the quick log-in b/c we don't let unregistered users view the forum.

Hi, Diego. Thank you for your reply. :)

Then make sure you updated your forum correctly with the last patch, the issue is coming from Login.template.php
Since GamingNation does no use this file, then it's from the default theme (Curve).

Thank you, Diego.  I did make the updates and edits to the index.template.php that were recommended.  I had started another thread about this for the reasons you point out (the problem with the Curve theme). I'll share your thoughts on this and see if anyone has any suggestions about editing the login.template.php. Thank you very much!

Back again.  I have another quick question I hope you can help me with.  A Detailed Version check of the Themes.Template.php in Gaming Nation's latest version shows it to be version 2.0.7, rather than SMF's current 2.0.12 version. (I have the same issue with a couple of outdated language files, actually.)

Is this something I could resolve on my own somehow, or should I not worry over it and just let it be? Thanks, Diego.

You have no need to worry about the "Template versions" It will not cause any issues so long as the code's up to date.

Thank you for your response, and for putting my mind at ease.  Much appreciated.

Hi, first of all, thank you for a neat theme!

Can any of you help me out with two things?
Remove the top bar in the first attachment. And remove the info box in 2nd attachment, because I have installed Simpleportal, and now I don't need this.

You might want to change the overall text color of the theme then :laugh:

.windowbg, #preview_body

Theme updated to SMF 2.0.17

Hello,
First to all, thanks for this awesome theme. It has an incredible design.
I have a little problem with responsive mode. When I open the forum with my phone, i can not see the column "last message" with the information about the user and his/her last message.
Moreover, when I click in one theme (in responsive mode), the title of the theme doesn't appear in the correct place.
I attach both images with the problems to solve.

Thanks again. I wait for an answer.

Fixed, I've updated the package

Thank you for sharing I was doing it wrong. i got my answer without questioning....

Hi Diego,

Love this theme, are you still providing support for it atm?

cheers

Not having this issue.
Verify you are typing only the username in the settings, the url is already preset.

Hello,

I am getting a HTTP ERROR 403 - Forbidden when uploading this theme via the Theme Manager in SMF Admin... I've also uploaded the theme via FTP in the /Themes directory, but I'm getting the same error when clicking "Save"...
I'm running SMF v2.1.1 btw.

Can you help me out?

Thanks in advance.

Kind regards,
WhiteSasch

Check the directory permissions?

Quote from: Diego Andrés on March 17, 2022, 08:39:07 PMCheck the directory permissions?

Thank you for your very fast answer. The directory permission of /Themes is 777. The directory permission of /Themes/Gaming-Nation_v1.3.1 is 755.
I've set the directory permissions of /Themes/Gaming-Nation_v1.3.1 and all files in it to 777, still getting the same error.

Are these permissions okay and do I need to check other permissions?
