All themes have problems

[DarkZero245]

Hi everyone. Been having a small problem with RC2.0, every theme I try to use, besides the default, seems to have a problem with it. I've tried alot of different themes and each one of them gives me a different kind of problem. Sometimes the tables are broken, fonts are all random sizes, theme is too big/small, etc.

Anyone know a solution to this?

Its usually hard to give a solution if you dont know what the problem is letting us know which theme it is, and a link to your site so we can see the problem would help.

Not sure if you switched them or not, is it SMF 2.0 RC2, or is it just SMF 2.0 RC?

[DarkZero245]

I can't post external links =\

The theme I'm trying at the moment is ModernDark64. Using SMF2.0 RC2

What mods do you have installed? I am to currently using ModernDark64 and it works fine with just a few glitches.

Please note you have two different versions of the same mod installed.

I know you said you can't provide a link, but can you just space it out such as "your domain . com"

And yes, you do, but I don't think that would be causing a problem. But you should still fix it as there is a chance that it is.

I have 2 versions uploaded, but only 1 installed.

URL: exe-ura . net/smf2

Anyone got a solution yet?

Are the themes compatible with RC2? An example theme and telling what it does on your forum might be useful.

Note that mods need to be installed (usually) on the custom themes as well, otherwise they will not work on the custom theme. Only on the default.

[Kill Em All]

ModernDark64 should be compatible with RC2, I'm not sure why your theme is looking like that. You can try creating a clean test install then downloading an new theme that is compatible with RC2 and test it out.

[DarkZero245]

I just removed all the mods I had on it and it's still not working. Could something have happened when I upgraded from RC1.2 to RC2.0?

[Kill Em All]

Possibly, you can trying running the large upgrade again.

[DarkZero245]

I only used the small upgrade. I read around for abit before upgrading. Everyone said the small update would work just fine.

[Kill Em All]

You can't use a small update to go to RC2. You need to use the large upgrade package to upgrade to 2.0 and make the database changes.

Please follow the directions here:
Upgrading SMF

[DarkZero245]

Download SMF 2.0 RC2

Using SMF 2.0 RC1.2? This small package will get you up to speed.

Bit misleading... I'll try the large upgrade and see if that works out.

[Arantor]

That text is actually automatic.

If you have a problem with any theme other than Curve, you should ask the theme's author about it - every theme has a comment thread.

[DarkZero245]

I would do that if it was happening to 1 or 2 themes. But it's happening to every single one that I try.

[Arantor]

Is each one doing exactly the same thing?

[DarkZero245]

No, each theme has a kind of different problem, most of the time it's either broken tables/borders, missing images, or fonts are massive and tables are very small. Sometimes the entire thing is just a mess.

I just upgraded using the large update and it's still doing the same thing. I'm going to remove all mods and try to update. Hopefully that will work.

Edit: Also gonna switch to default theme while upgrading. BTW I should mention that even the new curve theme has this problem. The only theme that looks normal is the "Classic YaBB SE Theme".

Edit2: Still doesn't work...

[DarkZero245]

Found the problem!

When I upgraded to 2.0 RC2 it didn't change the themes directory for some reason. I just reset the themes directory and they're working perfect now. Thanks for the help anyways guys!
