BlackRainV.2

[Hack]

Hiya Crip

First of all, thank you for the theme, I am using it as a base for modifying (slightly) for the legion I am in for Aion. I am however having one slightly annoying problem and for the life of me I can't work it out

I am wanting the menu bar (the bit with forum, help, search etc) to be centrally aligned on the page. Being the noob I am with CSS and not knowing the changes so much between smf 1 and 2.0 I am having huge issues making the menu centre. At the moment (after a lot of hacking I have used..

Code Select Expand

#tabs6 {
position: relative;
left:80px;
width: 99%;
font-size:90%;
margin: auto;
line-height:normal;
height: 44px;

To kinda force it more centrally. This is very cludgy to say the least and will only look centred if the user doesn't have many buttons (guests see it waaaayyyy off centre).

I am guessing I am missing something really really simple to change so that the whole lot kinda grows from the middle instead of left to right..

You can see how much I have bodged it up so far by looking at www.aequalis-legion.com [nofollow]

Any help or advice greatfully received and you can even laugh at me for my noobness if you want?

[makaluch]

I feel silly even asking this. I've spent some time learning this theme but I don't have a solid grasp just yet.

Where is the best place to insert a background-image ?

[Crip]

css/index.css ...

[makaluch]

Thanks man! Too easy. I'm an id10t  lol.

Awesome work Crip.

any help on how to make the post form alingned correctly?

[Fabius85]

well, i fixed that on my own. if anyone needs, just add this to the end of index.css:

Code Select Expand

#post_header
{
margin-bottom: 0.5em;
border-bottom: 1px solid #CACDD3;
padding: 0.5em;
overflow: hidden;
}

#post_header dt
{
float: left;
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
width: 15%;
margin: .3em 0;
font-weight: bold;
}

#post_header dd
{
float: left;
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
width: 83%;
margin: .3em 0;
}

#post_header img
{
vertical-align: middle;
}

ul.post_options
{
margin: 0 0 0 1em;
padding: 0;
list-style: none;
overflow: hidden;
}

ul.post_options li
{
margin: 0.2em 0;
width: 49%;
float: left;
}

#postAdditionalOptionsHeader
{
margin-top: 1em;
}
#postMoreOptions
{
border-bottom: 1px solid #CACDD3;
padding: 0.5em;
}

#postAttachment, #postAttachment2
{
overflow: hidden;
margin: .5em 0;
padding: 0;
border-bottom: 1px solid #CACDD3;
padding: 0.5em;
}

#postAttachment dd, #postAttachment2 dd
{
margin: .3em 0 .3em 1em;
}

#postAttachment dt, #postAttachment2 dt
{
font-weight: bold;
}

#postAttachment3
{
margin-left: 1em;
}

#post_confirm_strip, #shortcuts
{
padding: 1em 0 0 0;
}

.post_verification
{
margin-top: .5em;
}

.post_verification #verification_control
{
margin: .3em 0 .3em 1em;
}

if you  even want the "shortcuts message" and the post and preview buttons centered under the middle of the editor box, add this too to the end of index.css:

Code Select Expand

#shortcuts {
margin-left: 15%;
}
#post_confirm_buttons {
margin-left: 29%;
}

Hi ALL
Good work Fabius85!
But this theme have more bugs.

Could somebody fix it?
Thanks

for the first problem (avatar choice), just add this to the end of your index.css:

Code Select Expand

#personal_picture
{
display: block;
margin-bottom: 0.3em;
}



for the second problem (Features and Options in admin panel), well, that's not an alignment bug of the theme, as you can see by switching to the SMF default theme. some options just dont have their "?" box, so everything is aligned to left.



for the third problem, in your index.css search for this:

Code Select Expand

#verification_control, #verification_control .smalltext
{
display: inline;
}

and replace it with this:

Code Select Expand

#verification_control, #verification_control .smalltext
{
display: block;
}

that's all

How do I change the logo.   I tried doing it with the manager, but it puts it below the black rain logo.   I went to the templete file, but it is hard to see where to change the text.   

any help??

[Crip]

In the (index.templete.php) there is 1 < table > up @ top , this is where you change BRV2 logo / banner

[airric00]

I went into that file and it breaks it into section lines..   like beginning line1, 29, 68     Just seems weird.    Which box is that under?

[Crip]

Not sure your problem ? , you change it where i mentioned above

[airric00]

This is what I see.. 

[Fabius85]

tip: use a text editor (maybe with syntax highlight) to edit files, not the online editor of smf.

however, logo is in index.template.php, search for: "myslogan.jpg"

Thank you Fabius85!!

Figured it out.  I just uploaded my logo, renamed it to myslogan.jpg and just overwrite the current file.   Worked great... Thanks for the help.

I told you that a few times
