Alright, then.  It looks like it might be a problem with ads.  But to make sure, re-upload all of the CSS files from ApolloBB's default distribution.

hi

how can I make the "last post"  not show the index  I mean it says in big black last post on everyboard...it would great if it only said it on the actual last post because it is kinda confusing


Does that make sense?  OR i mean on most themes it says "today"

please tell me how to modify that but everything else is perfect thanks for the great theme

[zwaldowski]

I'm sorry, but I need a screenshot.  I'm glad you reported this, because I really can't test this stuff when I'm building the theme.

[fortest]

thanks for the update on this nice theme, zwaldowski...

Just a question though, what files/codes do I need to edit to make this theme work with Hide Tag Special and Thank-o-matic?

thanks.

[cru]

nice!

Anthony Coy, distributes a PSD including thhe logo

1. what's a PSD? 
2. How do i customize it so that the child boards are displayed like in the default theme? without icons?

ex:
Child Boards: Tips and Tricks, Mods and Packages, Bug Reports

and not

                       Tips and Tricks
Child boards : Mods and Packages
                       Bug Reports

3. also, in the calendar, i noticed the date today has "almost" the same background as the other dates, unlike in the default theme, the date today background is white, so when you see the calendar at a glance you'll know the date. How do i change that?

1. psd = photoshop document

Thanks zwaldowski I'll try that as soon as I get chance
sam.

1.  Answered above.
2.  Hmm... I'm not sure, that would take some fiddling.  It should be in one row; Try turning on the "Show child boards in two rows" option and see if that fits you better.  There's not much I can do.
3.  It'll be in your style.css.  Look for the class "calendar_today" or something with the word calendar in it, and change the background line to read:

Code Select Expand


background: #FFFFFF;


@fortest:  I would give you the exact steps, but I'm busy tonight.  Check out DanSoft's Package Parser, it's what I use to give you guys the info.  Make sure the "Template changes only" ratio is checked.  You should be fine; otherwise, post here.

has someone gotten the admod to work?
Doesn't work on my 1.1.3 installation + apollobb

Do I need to edit anything after I install the admod?
THe admod I installed is 2.3 (not sure but it's the latest)

[zwaldowski]

No, Ad Mod should work out of the box.  Make sure Ad Management is assigned to a user-group, or you have the no-admin-ads function turned off.  In other words, assign Ad Viewing to a group and test it with another user.

Hi ok well here is a pic....see how everything says "last post"   kinda hard to see the "today" (arrow)

I think you have to right click view this image to see the full size



Maybe we can make "last post" not bold and black

[kjaonline]

Here's my problem though
I also checked the permissions part and there's no option for the admod there

[zwaldowski]

@kja You didn't edit your Modifications.english.php file to contain the admod stuff.  Read the instructions at the bottom of this post.

For ketchup, open up BoardIndex.template.php, and look for the following line (247, I think):

Code Select Expand


<strong>', $txt[22], '</strong>  ', $txt[525], ' ', $board['last_post']['member']['link'] , '<br />

Replace it with:

Code Select Expand


', $txt[22], '  ', $txt[525], ' ', $board['last_post']['member']['link'] , '<br />

I'm not really sure if the admod requires me to edit modifications.english.php
but I checked their forums and found this
http://www.smfads.com/forums/index.php?topic=475.0

But, if you know what to edit in modifications.english.php please direct me there

Hi there,

id like to change the appollobb theme a little just to suit my users. We would like to have

"Sticky Topic:"

Next to the sticky topics, also when posting the box is blue with white text. Is there anyway of changing that to a white background with black text. Just the message boxes on smf here. How do you show what the colour represents in the who's online box. I know some themes have it but the appollo doesnt ..

Also the child topic, is there anyway of just making it on the one line rather than having 2 rows?


Thanks

[zwaldowski]

"Sticky Topic:" next to sticky topics

In MessageIndex.template.php, find (approx. lines 301-303:

Code Select Expand


echo '
', $topic['is_sticky'] ? '<strong>' : '' , '<span id="msg_' . $topic['first_post']['id'] . '">', $topic['first_post']['link'], '</span>', $topic['is_sticky'] ? '</strong>' : '';

And replace with: 

Code Select Expand


echo '
', $topic['is_sticky'] ? '<strong>'.$txt['smf96'].':  ' : '' , '<span id="msg_' . $topic['first_post']['id'] . '">', $topic['first_post']['link'], '</span>', $topic['is_sticky'] ? '</strong>' : '';


The next one is harder.

Next to the sticky topics, also when posting the box is blue with white text. Is there anyway of changing that to a white background with black text. Just the message boxes on smf here.

Open up style.css and replace the following line:

Code Select Expand


input.post:hover,input.postHover,textarea:hover,select:focus,input.liteoption:hover,input.mainoption:hover{background:#FAFAFA;border:solid 1px #666666;color:#444}


With this stuff:

Code Select Expand


select:focus,input.liteoption:hover,input.mainoption:hover{background:#FAFAFA;border:solid 1px #666666;color:#444}
input.post:hover,input.postHover,textarea:hover{background:#FFFFFF;border:solid 1px #666666;color:#000000}


Then open up the color css files (style_blue.css, etc...) and remove the line that looks similar to:

Code Select Expand


textarea,textarea:hover{background:url(images/black/text_bg.gif) #333333}


what the colour represents in the who's online box

That, I'm not sure about.  I've never seen it done before.

Also the child topic, is there anyway of just making it on the one line rather than having 2 rows?

That's in the theme options.

[tam2oo5]

Thanks very much, thats answered most of my questions. You know you said that the child board settings are in the theme options, well it only as an option for 1 row going vertical. Is there anyway to have it 1 row horizontal , like on other themes?.

Thanks again, great theme.

[zwaldowski]

Huh?  Like this?

Code Select Expand


- First child board
- Second child
- Third child


[tam2oo5]

No like this,

Child Board 1          Child Board 2               Child Board 3 ..... and so on.

[zwaldowski]

I'm not sure, since the child boards use tables (so you can't just use a line break).
