Nice job man, looks good.

[Deaks]

its about time that it was approved

[Kimmie]

ANyone tried this on 2.0 yet?

[Deaks]

yes this will work on 2.0.2

[Kimmie]

Just installed this, and several things will not show up.. example: Went to view the mods I have installed so I can update them for the theme:.. This what I see:


List is completely empty





No theme settings at all




Boards wont even populate

[Deaks]

can you please provide more information? as I just tried on my own test site and it is working as it should.

More interested in what mods do you have? what does your error log say?

[Kimmie]

No errors in log.


Not sure what more detail I can give you other than blank images where there should be things such as settings. I installed 2 other themes as well and both of them are fine, so it is obviously not a mod issue. But here is the list of what I have installed

hmm this is interesting one, none of those mods will effect, and i cant reproduce the issue, so I will pretend I know whats going on and will ask 1 thing, can you using your ftp client manually upload the files overwriting them all, this could simply be an error occurred when system did the upload used to happen alot in 1.x forums not so much in 2.0.

Also I looked at your forum, seems you may need to upload portal.css into the Chocolate Curvaceous css folder this should fix the blue on the blocks

[Kimmie]

ok I will try overwriting them and see if that works.

As for the other, thanks... That has been driving me nuts to fix, but I just havent had the time to look into it yet..lol. I assume that file is a part of the theme and should be in the rar for it?



Will let you know shortly of both worked or not.

[Kimmie]

No portal.css file in the themes rar file. Where do I find it?


Thanks

[Deaks]

no portal.css comes from the Simple Portal mod, you will find it in default/css/ just copy it and put it in  Chocolate Curvaceous folder aswell.

As for my theme please keep me updated

[Kimmie]

Yeah I figured that out after I had my coffee LOL.


I need to update my SP to the latest version so I will do that in a bit. That file is named portal_rtl.css so I will upload that to the other themes when I do.

I have already overwritten the thanksg themes files but it still did not resolve the issue. :/



WAIT, it did... kind of.. they are WAY DOWN THE PAGE now  lol

[Kimmie]

LOL How do I fix this

[Deaks]

ok one sec I know about this bug im just too lazy to fix it

ill get back to you soon as i find my notes

[Kimmie]

Hehehe ok no problem.

[Deaks]

Ok I got off my skinny ass so to speak and hopefully sorted it, if it works ill update the theme if not well listen out for my cursing ... as you will hear me scream wherever in world you are

[Kimmie]

LOL ok give me just a sec and I will let you know

[Deaks]

*waits patiently*

[Kimmie]

start cussing lol

[Deaks]

your joking right??!?? did you clear your cache?

[Kimmie]

as long as it does not cause any problems with the site, I can probably "live" with it. Its the only descent TG theme out there right now  lol.

I am sure you want to get this resolved though.




One thing I would highly recommend tho is... the "thanksgiving part"





I would recommend moving it over to the center more in this area

[Kimmie]

your joking right??!?? did you clear your cache?

Um, no I didn't do that, hang on  lol

[Kimmie]

that fixed it, sorry, I always forget to clean out my cache after these types of changes


I have spanked myself and added a new sticky note to my monitor

[Kimmie]

its an awesome theme tho. Thanks for your hard work on it

[Deaks]

wohoo im glad that worked, I do plan to update this theme and this may include a different back or maybe the same but I will look into it for next update

[Deaks]

Theme has been updated to include the new CSS, also includes a license and a few small fixes

[Kimmie]

I have a question...lol


the image of the "wheat and turkey".. is that supposed to cover the entire background or just that top corner like it is? I think it would look better if it spanned the top half all the way across and the solid on the bottom. That would look fabuluss


You can see the theme if you go to my site, it is my default now.

[Deaks]

top left corner as it is

also add portal.css to the css folder

[Kimmie]

Yeah, I haven't updated my SP yet.

[Deaks]

maybe you should we launched a new version not that long ago

[Kimmie]

yeah I don't have time to stay up to date on the mod updates anymore like I should.


You made that too?  lol. Busy Beaver.


ok ok I will go do that now  lol

[Kimmie]

ok done.


thanks for your help. Love the theme and LOVE the portal

[Kimmie]

hey since you made the portal, I have a problem I need solved. You want that here, or in the mod?

[Deaks]

nooo im just marketing for the portal

Marketing for Simple Machines, Simple Portal and BunnyRabbitSex (Literature website)


Ask in the portal topic or on simpleportal.net (im not clever enough to make a portal)

[Kimmie]

hehehe ok thanks again for your help with the theme

[Deaks]

Im glad you like it

[Steve]

Is there an easy way to widen the forum (i.e. the right and left borders are not so wide)?

I tried adding width to the below in index.css but it seem to have no effect:

Code Select Expand

/* This division wraps the entire forum when a forum width is set. */
div#wrapper
{
margin: 0 auto;
width: 98%;

}

[Deaks]

I havent looked at this theme since I sold it but you should be able to change the width in Admin Panel - Theme Settings

[Steve]

Oh for Pete's sake. I'm an idiot! 

Thanks Bryan.

[Deaks]

its usually the small things that throw us
