This theme makes use of Flash for the header, navigation, and footer. if it annoys you, you can disable sound effects in admincp -> current themes settings -> disable sound effects (sound effects in intro and link hover only)

Post by: 1MileCrash on November 24, 2005, 04:40:37 PM
that's becasue it's in flash. i dont think it's worth it to include two different flash movies in the theme. And i dont know how to integrate php and flash.
Title: Re: [Theme] Sapphire for SMF 1.1 RC1
Post by: kotch on November 24, 2005, 04:46:59 PM
The only problem ive found with the latest download of the theme is that the message icons dont show up, everyone of them is a lil red X.

Hope to see this get sorted cause im loving this theme  :D

When I loaded it up, I lost the ADMIN button.  It was replaced by LOGIN even though though I was already logged in.  Thank god I have the BACK button.  :)

Post by: 1MileCrash on November 24, 2005, 08:50:44 PM
look at the footer. you'll find the admin link there.  ;D


because of the flash navigation, it would make it really hard, if not impossible to integrate php if's with it. i could of course include a flash movie for each possibleilty, but that would be alot of flash movies, and alot of space taken up.
Title: Re: [Theme] Sapphire for SMF 1.1 RC1

but perhaps that you could make colors of the fonts a little lighter..

but i like your style.. couldnt do it myself..

thanks.

i decided not to redistribute the .fla file. if anyone needs me to put your forum name on it, i can do so.

also, this theme is in the process of being updated to work with tinyportal it works, but im still modding it so it looks good with the width and all.( i need permission from bloc to include the tinyportal templates with the theme)
Title: Re: [Theme] Sapphire for SMF 1.1 RC1
Post by: MaSt3R on November 26, 2005, 03:46:27 PM
Really Like the Theme, the only thing is all the images are smf defaults except the buttons but with downloads from here ive managed to make the site im admin of look pretty cool  :D just one thing im not very keen on is the header thing with the login thing... maybe make 2 flash files one that you already have.. and when you login display another flash which is what you get when you logged in .. admin , logout etc ....

not a problem though i can still access the admin section, logout etc thro the mkportal  :D

screen shots of the forum..







Title: Re: [Theme] Sapphire for SMF 1.1 RC1
Post by: 1MileCrash on November 26, 2005, 04:11:24 PM
maybe in the next release. i couldnt do one for logout becasue of the session variable. I wont do admin and search etc though. way to many flash files.

example:

a flash menu if the user is logged in, an admin, search is off, calendar is on, and the cannot edit their profile


a flash menu if the user is logged in, an admin, search is on, calendar is off, and the cannot edit their profile

a flash menu if the user is logged in, not an admin, search is off, calendar is off, and the cannot edit their profile


yeah. you get it. it'd be like 30 flash menus. too much.

icons are coming.  ;)

Title: Re: [Theme] Sapphire for SMF 1.1 RC1
Post by: 1MileCrash on December 05, 2005, 09:24:37 PM
arg. i messed up on that option.

a quick fix would be to go to the admin panel, check the
Disable sound effects
checking this will disable sound effects from your flash header.

box, saving, then going back and unchecking it (and saving).

just simply great, theme like that just simply cant be put in to words by my 3 year english vocab bank -.-
one thing tho, think you can make the whole layout a bit wider? lol. or is just me not use to the thinness. but other then that. the theme is awsome. i also have a quick question on Xmas Snow for the forum, is there anyway to apply that to it?, and can i please have your flash doc. file or  you u can simply add snow affects for the Panel. and do a Xmas Edtion of this already super nice Sapphire Theme. thanks

Title: Re: [Theme] Sapphire for SMF 1.1 RC1
Post by: 1MileCrash on December 05, 2005, 09:42:27 PM
you could easily change the width, but it would cause problems with the gradient used for the background of the forum.

I will attatch the .fla file asap (when i find it.)

Im glad you like it!

Have you thought about creating a seperate flash file for each menu item? That way you wouldn't have to create a seperate flash menu for each of the possiblities.

true, but it would be very difficult to get the animation in sync with multiple files. Like impossible.

Post by: Oldiesmann on December 08, 2005, 05:45:24 PM
I actually just now noticed that the menu is animated with the logo. I was just thinking in terms of a regular (non-animated) menu.
Title: Re: [Theme] Sapphire for SMF 1.1 RC1
Post by: 1MileCrash on December 08, 2005, 06:18:41 PM
hehe. yeah. That's the whole purpose of the "czzzzshhoooom" sound, it plays while the menu is sliding out.  :)

The only purpose i could see in making a regular logo out of flash (non-animated) would be for sound effects on hover.

Im afraid that just isnt possible. The page reloads and the flash plays. The only way it would be possible would be to make the entire theme out of flash.

here is the fixed file. Hope there are no problems with it.



I noticed you are using a 1.0.5 version of smf, with Sapphire, which is a 1.1 exclusive theme. You will possibly get some errors in your error log, and some features may not work properly. Use at your own risk!

Title: Re: [Theme] Sapphire for SMF 1.1 RC1
Post by: 1MileCrash on December 13, 2005, 08:15:17 PM
It's probabally showing for everyone but you..because i tested it in opera, firefox, and ie. All three browsers act exactly the same when displaying an image. It's just ie being a pain. It will probabally stop doing that if you refresh and/or clear your cache.

Well! as I am liking this flash logo more and more each time I look at it. I have a logo allready to plug into it, I made it the same size. I just dont want to mess the whole board up if I do it wrong.  It isnt a flash logo, also would it be possible to remake the flash logo to say..."Bears Connection" with out the quotes as you did for a few other people here?.  I am not that familar with flash, but I am quite good with graphics.   :)

Aww man that would be great! Will it be conpatible with 1.0.5?  Oh! and the upshrink problem, it works when I log out and click the button as a guest, but when I log back in, it doesnt work lol.  Wild hey?
Title: Re: [Theme] Sapphire for SMF 1.1 RC1
Post by: 1MileCrash on December 16, 2005, 06:04:50 PM
no, im not downgrading it to 1.0. The upshrink issue is probabally just another side effect of using an incompatable theme.

Title: Re: [Theme] Sapphire for SMF 1.1 RC1
Post by: 1MileCrash on December 16, 2005, 06:19:12 PM
that's because 1.0.5 is the last "stable" release. 1.1 RC1 is newer though.

i dunno. ill probably just include the files and give instuctions on what to do, instead of making a whole new theme dl.

I attatched the background to the flash. That's all i can do for now. The text was in "Aerial" in lower case, and the color was #FF9933.

`Mesmer

it would take some workit's kind of complitcated...because the flash header is the same width as the theme. It has to have a set width, no body margins, or percents or anything, or some of it wont align right. And i cant make it too wide, because the lower screen res. would get a horizontal scrollbar.

Exciting theme, however - immediateley after choosing this theme, this error occurs:


"Unable to load the main_above sub template!"


Its just a blank white page with that message. 

All I did was simply downloaded the saphire.tar.gz attatchment, installed it using the Admin "Upload & Install" feature.  After installing it said, "Saphire theme has been successfully installed."  But immediateley after switching to the theme the above error occurs.   Just downloaed the package 5 mins ago.

Using SMF 1.1 RC1


At the very least, because the forum is now unavailable, I would like to reset the board back to the original theme, how would I do that?

Hey TIPP maybe you can answer this..cause no one else seems to.  is there a way to modify the saphire theme to get the GoogleSpider mod to work, I have tried every thing even crashed the whole board once lol. it shows up in options but thats it...

here is a look at the post i made in MODS:

My icq gif isnt showing on the service that I have smf 1.1Rc1 but it shows up on another  hosting service running smf 1.0.5.

mattitude is right. you'll have to use the no flash version. i dont think a few of those characters can be used in urls for actionscript. Maybe if you would be willing to set up some sort of redirect, i could do it.

there is nothing i can do about the links staying there. The time it would take to integrate the php and flash would not be worth it. If you dont like the way it is, use the no flash version of the theme. As stated a few times in the topic.

Title: Re: [Theme] Sapphire for SMF 1.1 RC1
Post by: wartogking on January 01, 2006, 07:05:54 PM
No the zip file gives me the option to save it in a compressed file the other one does not.
Title: Re: [Theme] Sapphire for SMF 1.1 RC1
Post by: 1MileCrash on January 01, 2006, 08:05:39 PM
so you mean download, not upload.

are you telling me your computer is not letting you save a .tar.gz file..
Title: Re: [Theme] Sapphire for SMF 1.1 RC1
Post by: wartogking on January 01, 2006, 08:39:21 PM
it lets me save it yes but then say windows does not know how to handle this file when i atempt open it.
Title: Re: [Theme] Sapphire for SMF 1.1 RC1
Post by: 1MileCrash on January 01, 2006, 09:02:30 PM
why are you trying to open it?
Title: Re: [Theme] Sapphire for SMF 1.1 RC1
Post by: wartogking on January 01, 2006, 09:27:27 PM
to use my ftp to upload it. like the zip files when i open them i open them in a compressed file then unzip and upload to my ftp. I cant do it with tae.gz file.

Im just dumb and dont know what Im doing.
Title: Re: [Theme] Sapphire for SMF 1.1 RC1
Post by: 1MileCrash on January 01, 2006, 09:36:33 PM
none of that is nessesary..all you have to do is go to admincp -> themes

and upload it. smf extracts it on it's own.

He attached the .fla file to his first post, which is a flash source file. You'll need a program like Flash MX to open it though.

Hi ya Tipp
one question what program did you use for the flash because unless I have a diferent version of Gimp creating flash isnt a feature in Gimp ...
Title: Re: [Theme] Sapphire for SMF 1.1 RC1
Post by: 1MileCrash on January 08, 2006, 09:03:07 PM
macromedia flash. Pretty sure that's the only way to make flash...i used gimp for the graphics. editplus to code it.

This is a great theme!  Adding Flash was brilliant!  Will it be updated for RC2 and for 1.1 when it's released?  Also - I'm not a templating guru - how do you make it variable width, so it can be used wrapped in Mambo (so it doesn't force the left and right menus out making the horizontal scroll bar appear)?

Very nice Theme !

Looks good with the Flash in it.

It's  too dark for my forum, would be nice if it came in several colors as well.

Great Job !

Post by: ItalicVisions on April 24, 2006, 08:02:34 PM
This happens after install, when I change the theme to saphire11. Ive tried deleting the whole board and reinstalling and still the same error.

--------------------------------------------EDIT--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

problem solved for the most part...What I did incase anyone else is interested is, I extracted the tar,gz in a folder and ziped it back up with winzip and called it saphire instead of saphire11...so what you end up with after you zip it up is saphire.zip then go into admin and upload it normally  :)

Hi there Tipp, got a small problem with the header. it keeps looping in IE6 and you can't uncheck the loop option. Everything is fine untill you refresh the page, thats when it starts the loop.

Thank you for this theme. I like your themes. I had your Neon theme on my forum for ages, and I just now changed it to this one. However, it'll probably go back to Neon.. because it's my absolute favorite. I wish I could create themes as well, but.. eh.. I'm a lost cause, I guess. Anyway, thank you SO much for such a lovely, stylish, cool theme! =]
