You do not need to remove the template for that. All you gotta do is follow the instructions in this link and you are good to go.

If you want to remove the SMF logo upper right, do this -

/css/index.css



/* float these items to the right */
#siteslogan
{
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
float: right;
line-height: 3em;
}
img#smflogo
{
display: none;
}


Ashes and diamonds, foe and friend,
 we were all equal in the end.

smf  2.0.17 ,  SMF Default Theme - Curve

Antechinus

Ok, you said the help page linked earlier "does work" but you want a "much more stable banner or logo across the top of the forum".

Exactly what do you mean by that? Are you after something like this?


Kustomuk

Oh yes that looks fantastic, that's what I'm after.

Themes/default/index.template.php and Themes/default/css/index.css

All the stuff in the first post in that thread is for index.css.

The first edit in the second post is for index.template.php, and the second edit in the second post is for index.css.

Kustomuk

Ok i`ve changed the files code but how do i point it to my logo in that code so it will display the logo on the screen.

Thankyou

Antechinus

It will pick up whichever banner you have linked from the theme settings page in admin.
