Hi, Hoping someone might be able to assist me.  I'm trying to apply the 'simple ads' modification and it fails on install trying to update BoardIndex.template.php.  It cannot find the literal that the install is looking for.  Is there any way that I can make the appropriate change to BoardIndex.template.php required?  Thank you in advance for any help you can offer!

Yes, there's a parser on the mod's download page.

Support for mods should be sought by using the mod's support topic.

Thanks, I've tried that... nobody is responding.

Try the support boards, then. 

This is specifically for support for Helios.

Correct, my apoligies, I think I'm not asking the correct question... The mod calls for the following edit...

Find: [Select]
   template_info_center();
Replace With: [Select]
   echo '<br class="clear" />';   
             template_ad_position('above_info_center');   
             template_info_center();

My question is if there is an equivalent string in this template, perhaps different syntax to mean the same thing where I can make this replacement?  If this is still better handeled by support, I can go there.  I thought the template author could add insight. 


Thanks,

Helios doesn't have that subtemplate, because its merged with the template_main() function.

Heres what you can do: find this line inside Boardindex.template.php:

Code Select Expand

// Here's where the "Info Center" starts...

And simply add this ABOVE it:

Code Select Expand

template_ad_position('above_info_center');

Thank you Bloc, I TRULY appreciate your help here, can't thank you enough. 

It appears to have made a change, but doesn't seem to be displaying properly... I've attached a screen shot.

Hi Bloc,

There is an echo statement in the BoardIndex.Template.php of Helios, just before where I inserted this.  I noticed that the text from the Simple Ads mod also had an echo statement but it's different, could this be causing the display problem? 

In Helios:

echo $rightboxbot;

template_ad_position('above_info_center');

// Here's where the "Info Center" starts...

Simiple Ads suggests:

echo '<br class="clear" />';    
template_ad_position('above_info_center'); 

I tried it with the Simple Ads echo statement and it didn't seem to work either?

Any advice is greatly appreciated.

Updated for SMF 2.0 RC4.

[Northboun]

Thanks for the great theme.

Isn't this menu (attached) suppose to be more button-like? Have I done something wrong?

SMF2.0 RC4 with the updated theme

[kat]

That's how mine looks, too.

Seems OK, to me.

[bloc]

It was made that way for SMF 2.0 to make it easier to fit more buttons. But I have plans to add dropdown support, in which the main links will be separate buttons again.

[Northboun]

That's great news Bloc this is an outstanding theme. I used it with SMF 1.X but after that particular menu changed I stopped using it but have always watched for an update that would restore its old look.

Thanks for your reply's guys.

Hi all.

Just installed RC4 for testing and have so far installed simpleportal and helios.
There is currently an image in the block title that belongs to the default theme. (see attachment)
Would anyone have any idea how I can be rid of this image so the block looks as it should.
Thanks.
Regards,
Scott.


* Pls note that this was with simpleportal 2.3.3, I just rolled back to 2.3.2 and the issue is resolved.

[bloc]

There is a bug within the SimplePortal styles or block code afaik..ask at the SP site for details.

[daftandhungry]

No problem....Thanks Bloc.

Is there a way to lock the color to green and remove the color selection bar?

Have a look in: Admin - Current Theme - Turn off the color chooser
