Helios Multicolor

[SkyRanger]

Awsome theme.  I need to create a couple of new buttons but not sure what font you used for the buttons.

I really like this theme a lot and I want to continue to use it but it seems to be causing some problems for my users. I have the option to show whos browsing the boards on. When a lot of people are viewing it wraps to another line for me and others but there are a few where the users will stay on one line and stretch the forum so you have to scroll from side to side. Any idea why this would happen for some and not for others. It only happens with this particular theme.

Got a link to show this?

It doesn't seem to happening to everyone so I'm not sure if a  link will help but if you go here http://thejc.ca/forum log in as RNS password rns you might be able to see.

Hi Bloc

Thanks for your awesome theme!

Sorry to bother you but maybe you find a second to help me/us? I would like the same like "nitto1320i". I would like to remove the top bar because it's already showed in the sidebar. How can we do that? Is it maybe possible to activate the "upshrink" button by default?

[bloc]

The absolute quickest way is to locate this code in helios index.template.php:

Code Select Expand

echo '<div id="upshrinkHeader"', empty($options['collapse_header']) ? '' : ' style="display: none;"', '>
..and replace with:

Code Select Expand

echo '<div style="display: none;"', '>

That would hide permanent whats normaly hidden by upshrink.

That did the trick. Thank you very much!!

ooh look at that this teheme never used to be transparent at the top part
It is now one I downloaded and thats a shame. 

But the theme doesnt work well in wrapped joomla... it goes out of whack when you click on certain forum catergories

I have started conversion of some of my themes for Joomla that should look good in both wrapped and unwrapped format + a theme just for Joomla to go along, although not essential.

ok but how far off are they ?
my site neeeds to go live in about 2 weeks and so far doesnt look like any forum skins will work

This is result of helis

But you probably knew it would have some kind of affect like that as its not designed for wrapping.

Tho someone else who uses same theme as me injoomla got it to work for them



Forums have all jumped out of the wrapper..

and the top menu is transparent which would be nice is there is a version that isnt trasparent as it looks wrong to me... but thats just my opinion.

The helis themes are nice and the colour variation is brilliant.

If you take or listen to requests then I suggest

Have some of the helis forum colours be similar or same as enterprise.. im talking about categories/post view to match the gren/blue in helis.
It would look great I find the brownish tan colour just doesnt suit the blue/green borders etc.
And have the welcome panel in same tone colours to match

What I havent seen yet in any SMF themes is a divider between forum replies in Topics. I think that would be cool, so it looks more separaeted from someone elses post.

It seems to common to use 2 colour tone variations to separate posts but a border between them would be much nicer.. even for the avatar area in my view.

You have much talent broc, have you ever looked at any IPB skins ? for what I mean for borders between post view and how to dress up the avatar area... inpost view.

They are all plain and untouched...

This is just an example of my IPB skin, its designed more for bf2 game... but you see what I mean by avatar area and divider between posts ?
