I don't know if this is a EZ Problem or not, I have tried changing the settings but I have not been able to find where the problem is.

I am using 2.0.18

The only thing I can think is, I did something when updating the CSS for the banner centring.

I don't think that could have caused it but still trying to understand CSS I would have thought it would be in one of the templates but again just learning PHP.

What I want is the image of Toyah we'll not that one lol to be able to show above the Topics list and then above the topic/replies.

Does anybody have any ideas I can try thanks mick

When you're in the process of installing mods, it shows the option to install on other themes.

Sorry mick I don't understand, This is a old problem I've been trying to find the cause of.

Adding another theme may solve it??



Mick.

Not necessarily. When you upload mod, it will show the option do also add it to other themes [tick the theme you're currently using]. Also, if the theme you're using has its own messageindex.template and boardindex templates, then you would have to tick that theme when installing mods. If you're theme doesn't have these files, don't worry about it since it uses those templates from default theme and should install

Mick.

Further more...I'm not familiar at all with ezportal but i would think it offers center html blocks top and bottom correct?

Thanks Mick, think I understand now I'll download those files and backup then replace with a 2.0.18 theme hopefully that will correct it.

Ref: EZ It does as it did work, as remember doing it when it was a creataforum hosted forum

thanks mick

Go your profile, and change your theme. Use Default and another custom theme and see if that block appears. If it doesnt, then it may be a mod issue but if it is working, then it's a theme issue more likely on messageindex template

Just checked when site was moved all the themes seem to have been missed except the default which is what I'm using.

I'll see if I can find a Theme to install but think I'll back the whole thing up first.

Thanks just doownloading a freash 2.0.18 install will use the default them from that can I rename it?



Mick.

Now.... go to the default theme selected from your profile. Doing this, it does not affect your users. Theyre still on the custom one. Anyhow,...Activate a HTML block and put your picture or whatever. Look for it on the boardindex and where it's missing. The Message index. ....tell me what you see; nothing? Rabbits?

Mick.

There was no need to install fresh files. You dont even know where the culprit is.

Mick.

If you're doing everthing new, install your themes first. Then your mods.
