Hi,
my problem is when external users check out my forum it is not showing them ANY theme, jus plain text that is aligned and structured
http://redground.no-ip.org/smf_1.7/index.php
I THINK the problem is it keep trying to contact my server using localhost, if u check out my site u may notice at the bottom of your browser u can its contacting localhost, i tried edting my server settings but that doesn't seem to be the problem... im not sure what i did it wrong, but i know its a simple tiny error that i need to find...
This is the server'd
settings.php file

[edited out DB details - Fizz]
I have edited out your Database connection details - please do not include them in a post ;)
The problem is not related to your Settings.php file
Can you please check your Theme settings in Admin Panel.
Make sure that the theme URL is correct.
