Tolkien

[Sembazuru]

my members can't see the 'new' .gif in IE. I can see it in Firefox though!

Sorry to dredge this topic up from the past, but I've just started using SMF (v1.1.4) and have Tolkien_11 as a user selectable theme (I actually use it on my admin account). I've noticed that the new .gif doesn't show at all in either FireFox2 or IE7. In Firefox I just see the alternate text "New" as if there isn't an image, and in IE7 it shows as a bad image icon with the alternate text "New" next to it (all within a border so I know they are related). I've checked through cpanel and new.gif exists at Themes/tolkien_11/images/english/ and I can view it fine as a file from cpanel's file browser. I installed this theme as a package from the .zip file I downloaded from here and haven't made any changes to the installed files.

I also surfed through the theme .php files and only found in Themes/tolkien_11/pages/homepage.template.php a reference to 'new' which points to Themes/default/images/english/new.gif which also exists and is viewable with cpanel.

Anyone have any ideas where my issue is?

I just looked at the page source and found that the new.gif icon is being pointed to at Themes/tolkien_11/images/english-utf8/new.gif and the english-utf8 folder doesn't exists. Why is this folder being mentioned? Is there a setting in SMF messed up, or is it because of my version of SMF? Should I change the english folder's name to english-utf8 or copy the english folder to a new folder called english-utf8?

Erm... never mind. I changed the forum's default language from "english-utf8" to "english" and seem to have solved the problem.

So Im looking to upgrade my 1.1.7 forum using a modified version of the Tolkien template to 2.0RC1.  I've fixed the template to work by in large in 2.0RC1 and I have stripped out most if not all of the TinyPortal specific code, simply because I do not need it.

My issue, the only one left is with the tool bar strips,  At first I thought it was controlled by the function template_button_strip().  But I do not believe this to be the case.   These buttons are appearing as vertical bulleted list instead of horizontal strips.  Where is this visual element controlled at?  I can surely figure it out if I just knew where to look

When you get this working on 2.0, I would love to snag a copy!
