Thanks Digger,

So on that page where is says-
./Themes/default/index.template.php

I should be at-
./Themes/custom theme/index.template.php

and make the changes that way, working on this now

When I look at my custom theme file, Im not seeing all the files that are in the default theme file. Im having a hard time with this. I thought if I made my custom theme "the default" then the files in the default theme would have been mofified when I installed the mod.

Im kinda scared to mess around with these files. the parse instructions, im not finding the php entrys in the actual files in the default theme folder, im uncertian if im doing the right thing. I have made changes to the script before (simple things) but this may be beyond me. I need more guidence.

Ok, I took a deep breath.

Upon closer examination the default theme file has the files in the parse instructions. Its weird since most mods will go right in without problems.

My custom theme file only has "./Themes/default/index.template.php"

but does not have any of the other files in the parse instructions such as

"./Themes/default/Post.template.php"
"./Themes/default/Display.template.php"
"./Themes/default/style.css"

It appears the default theme has all the code in the parse instructions...

Should I remove and re-install the mod? to see if that works. Most all the mods I have installed work fine with my custom theme, this is leaving me scratching my head.

I got some help with this from a friend.

QuotePlease check if the problem with the textarearesizer is still present :). I
think you modified only the default theme, not flashsteam theme too.
FYI every time you have to change a file from the default theme, you must
change the same file in the desired theme folder. The file from the default
theme is always overwrite if the file exists in the current theme (in our
case in flashsteam folder).

I figured this would help others who are new to SMF like I am.

Maxtor

does it work with custom themes??
