JohnyB,

Theme up since May '08...
Only 3 pages for support, most being for buttons, which you kindly help with...

Tells me one thing...

Like I said before, Great job on such a greatly done theme.

@jeddi
Here are your requested buttons. I'll add them to the extra-buttons package. To remove the bottom menu, find and comment-out. Around line 219.

Code Select

template_menu();

@BurkeKnight
Thanks for the cool compliment.

jeddi · November 02, 2008, 07:50:41 AM

JohnyB, Thank you very much for your help.
May need a bit extra help lining them up with the other menu tabs, cant seem to get that right.
The code has been given earlier but I want to know after which code it goes.

Line 300-335 doesnt work it places my button way up the left corner.
thank you!

jeddi · November 02, 2008, 09:16:12 PM

I have done it, managed to add buttons in line on the main tab menue.
I fooled around a bit without success and then tried it on the default themes
Subs.php and it worked, why didnt I think of that before!

JohnyB

Could I ask you to make 3 very custom buttons for me?

Realm Info Center
Contact
Links

It's for my Realm Online Site.

Thank you.

EDIT:

Also, I found a strange issue...

With the smileys, I set in Current Themes, to use Classic in the Select default smiley set for this theme settings. When hit save, it resets to (use global default) and when try to do a post, the smileys do not show.
When do a properties check on the smileys, they show as being: Smileys/1/smiley.gif

Figured you may want to know that.

@jeddi
That's good. Every Admin should know or learn how to do it by theirself.

@BurkeKnight
Do you have to specify the name of your board in a button? I did it for you anyway.

Together with your other requested buttons. Some people might need them too.

Burke ♞ Knight · November 03, 2008, 09:23:27 PM

Thanks, JohnyB...

Actually, the Realm Info Center is the hub of the site.
It's where the members go to get any and all info for playing the Realm.

One of my most visited sites.

These two buttons will make me happy with my ShinBlue Theme. Also want to say your support for your theme is top class, you know your stuff.

@jeddi
Not sure if I did it right so I made two copies.

jeddi · November 13, 2008, 08:40:06 PM

JohnB, thank you! I think Im ok now and enjoying your theme.

Hi JOHNYB,This theme is awesome! How does one change the title from "shiny blue" to something different? Salamat

Salamat.

The "Shiny Blue" is an image and you can find it in default/images folder. It is called smflogo.gif. You can edit it using photoshop or similar photo editing softwares. Or if you want to use your own image, rename your image as smflogo.gif.

monza · February 02, 2009, 09:19:00 AM

Hi, Love the theme just sent you a PM about show new replies and show new posts not showing up on my board under the shiny blue theme

Bulakbol · February 02, 2009, 08:29:46 PM

Thanks Monsa. PM replied.

monza · February 02, 2009, 09:07:22 PM

Just a quick one that I should share here

I had a problem with favicon's not showing in any browser. I have added the following line and it is now working just change the .png to .ico or .gif

in index.template.php
Find:

Code Select




<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"', $context['right_to_left'] ? ' dir="rtl"' : '', '><head>

Replace with:

Code Select


<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"', $context['right_to_left'] ? ' dir="rtl"' : '', '><head>
<link rel="shortcut icon" href="favicon.png" type="image/x-icon"/>

Bulakbol · February 02, 2009, 09:26:35 PM

I uploaded a favicon.ico in the root directory without doing any file edits. Most browsers (except IE) detects it automatically.

Back to the topic.

If anyone want to add "Show unread post..." and " Show new replies ...", edit your index.template.php.

Code (find) Select

<a href="', $scripturl, '?action=pm"><img src="', $settings['images_url'], '/mynewemail.gif" alt="" style="margin-left: 4px;" align="bottom" /></a>';

Code (add after) Select

echo '
         <br /><a href="', $scripturl, '?action=unread">', $txt['unread_since_visit'], '</a>
         <br /><a href="', $scripturl, '?action=unreadreplies">', $txt['show_unread_replies'], '</a>';

you might need the attached button. Upload into shinybluexxx/images/english folder.
