Hi,

I like this theme very much, the black and gold accents give it a very stylish look. For my forum, I would like to incorporate a background image in the header area, just like you did in Actualism. Would you be able to assist me with the code?

Thanks

Crip

..it's basically ike SMF Default theme , so what works on it , ''should''  work on Ambassador as well...

Amanda.

Lovely theme :)
I'm using it on 2.0 gold, the only issue I have is that the text in the reply box is appearing rather large in all browsers.
Any way around this?

Crip

Find and replace this part of Quick≥Reply in css/index.css


/* Styles for the quick reply area.
---------------------------------------------------- */

#quickreplybox
{
padding-bottom: 1px;
}
#quickReplyOptions .roundframe
{
padding: 0 10%;
}
#quickReplyOptions form textarea
{
height: 100px;
width: 635px;
max-width: 100%;
min-width: 100%;
margin: 0.25em 0 1em 0;
}


that should do it.

Hi Crip

I'm loving your theme on my forum since I've upgraded to 2.0.  It's given my forum a fantastic facelift.

Like a poster above, I'm finding that when I reply to a topic, the text in the box is quite large.  I've tried what you recommended previously but it hasn't really changed anything (those are the dimensions of the quickreply area already on my forum css/index.css).

I have this problem when replying to a topic and when modifying a topic in the topic view area.

EDIT:

I'm also having an issue in my error log saying that the following file doesn't exist forum/Themes/ambassador_2_0/images/theme/frame_repeat.png

Can you tell me where it is or send it to me so I can put it in the right place?  It lists about a hundred refering pages so I'm guessing there is something not obvious missing from the theme folders.

Thanks!

Ah, yes, the problem with the frame_repeat file. What I did was place a dummy frame_repeat.png file (i.e. an empty txt file renamed to frame_repeat.png) in there. I already contacted Crip about it and he said that the file isn't needed, so all you need to do is remove the reference of the file in the ambassador css file.

So find in Ambassador's index.css:


/* the content section */
#content_section
{
background: #2c1B1B  url(../images/theme/frame_repeat.png) repeat-y top left;
padding-left: 20px;
}
#content_section div.frame
{
background: url(../images/theme/frame_repeat.png) #3f1B1B repeat-y top right;
display: block;
padding: 0 20px 0 0;


Replace with:


/* the content section */
#content_section
{
/*background: #2c1B1B  url(../images/theme/frame_repeat.png) repeat-y top left;*/
padding-left: 20px;
}
#content_section div.frame
{
/*background: url(../images/theme/frame_repeat.png) #3f1B1B repeat-y top right;*/
display: block;
padding: 0 20px 0 0;
Check out my new website, MyAnimeClub.net. I plan to create the largest anime community, and most fun and user-friendly anime forum in the world. It's still in the development stage though.

Best / easy way , is delete it out of there..css/index.css

/* the content section */
#content_section
{
background: #2c1B1B  url(../images/theme/frame_repeat.png) repeat-y top left;
padding-left: 20px;
}
#content_section div.frame
{
background: url(../images/theme/frame_repeat.png) #3f1B1B repeat-y top right;
display: block;
padding: 0 20px 0 0;
}





Until it looks like So:

/* the content section */
#content_section
{
background: #2c1B1B;
padding-left: 20px;
}
#content_section div.frame
{
background: #3f1B1B;
display: block;
padding: 0 20px 0 0;
}

Thanks MiY4Gi & Crip!

MiY4aGi's suggestion seemed to work.  I'll try Crip's suggestion on my forum soon.

Can either of you figure out if it's possible to make the text in the posting box smaller?  Whenever I reply to a topic on my forum the text in the box is enormous.  I'm not sure where to find this on the stylesheet.

Crip

Should be as Default --

/* The font size of textareas should be just a little bit larger. */
textarea
{
font: 100%/130% verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif;  <===========================>
}

No, I will not offer free downloads to Premium DzinerStuido themes. Please stop asking.

Hi Crip!

I have had a few users with a slight issue on this theme and hoped you could help.

On the forum page or topic list, if there are 'new' replies a little 'new.gif' image displays (it's just a yellow gif with the word 'new' on it).

Some of my users say that the gif doesn't work at all...  they get that default broken image pic instead and it doesn't look good.  I've tried everything I can think of - I even linked the gif in a post, and they saw it so it worked, but for some reason it's not showing up on their screens in the topic list.

We've also tried:
clearing the cookies and cache
changing the settings on their browsers
different browsers
mobile phones

The same problem exists across all browsers for these two or three users.  I can't replicate their problem, the image works for me on all browsers and PCs so far.  I don't suppose you have some clue what this could be?

Thanks!
WS

This doesn't sound like a theme problem. It could be a server problem (on your side), or a router/internet problem (on their side).

Do those users have antiviruses? From what location were they logging into the forum (work or home)? Do they use proxies?
