Hey Lopalong.
This does not look good with resolutions higher than 1024x768 ...

I disagree. Of course words and images are going to appear smaller because of increased resolution, but most of your users will not have their resolution set above 1024x768.

Take a look at my site with Lopalong's reducing code. Link is in my profile.

I have just done the above changes however I need some help :-

Chaotic I love your site and I would like to have the same layout how did you manage to put a border at the top and bottom as mine doesnt seem to have them ???

I also love the background picture

good job

the only other problem was with the footer code, the intructions says find:-

Spoiler: [ Show ]

however mine didnt have it so I put it here :-

Spoiler: [ Show ]

is that ok ???

my site :- www.uk-alliance.com

oh I am using Blue Pearl Theme as well

Re: Reducing Theme To 80% By Lopalong?

From memory - the instructions tell you that you have clean up this block.

Code: [Download] [Hide] [Select]

<div align="center">{BOTTOM_HTML_BLOCK} 

  <span><a name="bottom"></a></span> 

  </body> 

  <div align="center"> 

</div>

You have added mods etc, that are outside of the body, so you need to work out what's best for you. But either way, you need to move </body> to above the </html>

Re: Reducing Theme To 80% By Lopalong?

Sorry, I thought I had made reference to the the fact that the bottom blocks and body vars needed to be moved.

Chaotic uses a theme created by Limun, so if you want extras added - talk to Limun, because I don't normally work on any theme that someone has added modifications to themselves. And I certainly don't create patches on-the-run for wannabe personal taste changes etc.

Re: Reducing Theme To 80% By Lopalong?

ok.................. I may need to do that or even change to ProSilver IP Blue because I have followed your script but changed the global-wrapper to 924px everything now looks ok however I am having a problem when I post in the forum it doesnt seem to wrap around properly, for example if I create a new message and press and hold down the a key by the time I have "aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa" it shows it as one big line knocking the rest of the site out of line.

any help would be great

You are the code master so I'm not sure if your code works on the beta or not. ____________ \| Icy Phoenix ColorizeIt! \| Bipolar Disorder - Not good for you and definitely not good for everyone else.

Re: Reducing Theme To 80% By Lopalong?

@Chaotic:

Thanks but I did check n1cks site and IF he was "Playing" with the beta - "No Comment on what I would have said" if that had been the case

@n1cks: When you reduce the theme width, there is some stuff that is set for the MAX and smilie rows are one of them. IF that's what we are talking about. ?

You can change the smilie columns and rows in the ACP. IF that's what we are talking about ?

Or did I already say that?

Edit:

There were some unwanted carriage returns in the script which I have removed.

The most obvious change is:

height="35px"

Which should have been ->

style="height: 35px;"

I do have quite big smileys on my site

Re: Reducing Theme To 80% By Lopalong?

Smilies can or should be able to be broken with spaces between each one, notwithstanding that at present they probably look something like this:

:asmile::bsmile::csmile: etc. Though it may not be apparent in the editor, that's how they are coming up as described by you?

It means that the url calling the smilies either needs a space before or after the http string that calls them. Not difficult, but means a .php script adjustment.

Post it as a new topic and we'll see if we can thrash it out.

Post some pics too, as it would be helpful.

You could also try adding spaces before and after all the "New" and / or large smilies that you add.

E.g. <space>:mysmilie:<space> If you get what I mean.

Re: Reducing Theme To 80% By Lopalong?

If that don't work, and it probably won't! Try this?

Open: viewtopic_body.tpl

Code: [Download] [Hide] [Select]

Find:

{POLL_DISPLAY}

<tr>

    <th width="150">{L_AUTHOR}</th>

Replace With:

{POLL_DISPLAY}

<tr>

    <th style="width:15%;">{L_AUTHOR}</th>

Find:

    <td class="row-post" width="100%" height="100%">

        <div class="post-buttons-top post-buttons">

            <span class="img-main">{postrow.QUOTE_IMG}</span>

Replace With: (Adjust 800px to suit your style.)

    <td class="row-post" style="width:800px; height:100%;">

        <div class="post-buttons-top post-buttons"  >

            <span class="img-main">{postrow.QUOTE_IMG}</span>

It won't fix AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA etc, but it will fix the smilies. And higher resolutions will just have to put up with what they get unless you do fix or have fixed the overall table width with px.

Re: Reducing Theme To 80% By Lopalong?

I have set the global-wrapper to 924px does that fix the overall table width as well ????

I have done the change from above which has fixed the smileys once posted but still shows them as a big long line in the preview window.

Images posted still strech the template, I have tried to limit image sizes via ACP but it doesnt seem to have any effect

thanks for all your help lopalong
