Hello,

First I would like to say that I love your black pearl style and have been using it since the beginning of phpbb3. But now I am having a problem. I recently updated the style to the newest version to go along with 3.0.2. Now in the search, or viewforum.php, a user that was recently activated after i did the changes does not have his name in the author column the proper color and its not clickable. But in the memberslist he is there and the proper yellow color and clickable... any ideas?

One more problem, I have a custom logo on the overall_header, and the menu_block is covering the bottom 1/4 of the logo with. It looks like the menu_block is sitting ontop of the logo because the logo is both above and below the menu_block

The first problem I guess it is related to cache... can you try with subSilver 2 if you have the same problems?

The logo issue it is because your logo is too high. Reduce it or edit the css the #top_logo class.

Question, I noticed on this board with this theme applied that "Global Announcement", "Announcement", "Sticky", and "Topics" are all divided nicely and looks cleaner. The default install of this theme on a phpbb3 board dose not have this feature??? What do have have to change to enable this feature?

This board is not based on phpBB 3. Try looking for a mod @ phpBB.com.

Great thanks for the help! The top_logo class fixed er up, and the other problem i sorted out.

The user had made a post like 2 years ago, was deleted, and rejoined, so obviously a new uid number. So his name in the author column is non clickable because it was from his old deleted account.

Ciao a tutti, innanzi tutto visto che sono nuovo, grazie per avermi accettato su questo forum davvero bello e ben fatto.
Ho letto che la versione di questo spettacolare sito non è compatibile con la versione phpbb3 ancora per il momento e quindi non mi dilungo e vengo a porre il mio quesito.
Io installato il black pearl per la versione phpbb3 e funziona tutto le uniche cose che non mi funzionano sono i bottoni e mi vengo a spiegare meglio.
Se invio un messaggio ho le voci ma non ho i riquadri come in questo momento e se apro il forum non mi vengono visualizzati i bottoni per aprire nuovi post o rispondere a quelli esistenti.
Sapete dirmi qlc in merito?
Grazie infinite.

You could have saved some hours by reading this:

Hi friends,

I use 1.2.9 version of this style... And I installed a lot of mods... When i update phpBB to new version i didn't do any style changes. My phpBB version is 3.0.4 but my style version is 1.2.9. How can i update it to 1.4.5? Where can i find this template code changes.

If i chance old files with new files, all mod changes will be lost. Right? That's why i must find code changes.

Sorry for the bad language.

What is WinMerge? What can i do with that?

http://winmerge.org/

If you put your template in one folder and the new one in another, you can use WinMerge to compare only the changes... and you will update your site in few minutes.

Have a try... it is free!

The Breadcrumbs do not appear on my phpBB v3 custom pages. They appear in my Forum and on the custom pages of my other styles but not Black Pearl.

Do I have to add:



to the top of all of my custom pages? This isn't necessary for the other 5 styles that I have (including subsilver2 & prosilver).


Lastly, kindly let me know what I have to edit in the stylesheet to increase the text size of the message the members receive when the Board is disabled.

Ex: "This board is currently disabled. "

1. <!-- INCLUDE breadcrumbs.html -->

Yes, you have to.

Regarding the rest, could you please provide a link or a screenshot with the text you would like to edit?

This has been asked before, but i don't think anyone has solved it.
the answers to the questions (that i have seen) is always that the person asking has done his edits wrong.

I have search (on and off) on different forums for people using this style to see if anyone has solved this and i still can't figure out how to fix it.

No matter how i edit the viewtopic_body.html file, i can't get the ads or an image to show after first post.

So, just to make sure that i didn't mess up on any edits, i installed a new phpbb3 3.0.4 board, and i downloaded the latest Black_pearl for phpbb3,
and i made 1 edit, i put this code (it's a test image)

above this (on line 278 of the viewtopic_body.html file)


and the image will not show after first post, it still only shows before first post.

does anyone know why ?
i have tried moving that code around and still nothing.

HERE is a link to the post i'm talking about

you will see a pink banner above first post as a test.

OK, the problem is with the code in viewtopic_body.html file, In Black_Pearl
I don't know where, (i'm not a coder), but for one, i was trying to compare the 2 files, phpbb3 - subsilver2/template/viewtopic_body.html and Black-Pearl - - subsilver2/template/viewtopic_body.html
and i notice that, in the Black-Pearl file there's a </table> missing above <!-- END postrow -->

You can see in the example below
Black-Pearl Code:


PHPBB3 subsilver2 Code:


But just putting </table> there will not work (there's something else wrong, but like i said i'm not a coder,

So i replaced the Black-Pearl - template/viewtopic_body.html file with the phpbb3 - subsilver2/template/viewtopic_body.html file, and as you can see HERE it now shows after first post.

The problem is that it removed the border line deviding the poster name and avatar from the post, but for me, i think i can find that code and fix it.

This fix is easy for new installs (for non coders) But for those that have installed mods and edited that file according to the mods, will either have to try and see whats wrong with it, or wait to see if MG fixes it.

Anyway I just wanted to let people that are still having a problem with ads after first post. know about this.

Thanks for reporting, when I have some free time I'll check.

Anyway I just wanted to let people that are still having a problem with ads after first post. know about this.

Looked to the code of my forum and was wondering if this really should be a problem as my site is XHTML valid.
So here are the results:



the table close tag just comes some lines below the <!-- END postrow -->
If you insert another </table> then you might have some more problems!

Can you check it Bobocop?

And another prob that i found is your code:


<!-- IF postrow.S_FIRST_ROW == 2 --> can never be happen as S_FIRST_ROW is either TRUE or FALSE. So what you could try instead is: <!-- IF postrow.S_FIRST_ROW != TRUE --> but that would display the advertisement on every row except the first

Hence you could try this code:

<!-- IF postrow.S_ROW_COUNT == 2 -->

I didn't tried it - but for me it seems a possible solution!

Good point Hour, thanks for reporting it.

I'm fairly new to PHPBB and Black Pearl, but I am trying to incorporate a 468 x 60 ad somewhere in the top like a typical banner ad.

The screenshot below is the area I'd like the ad to appear in.



I'd also like to have one in the footer as well.

Where do I update the code to make this happen? I tried updating the overall file, however that did not work.

Thanks,

John

Hello, I need help figuring out a few things on my site www.ontariog8club.com

1) how do I remove the header text next to my header image without removing the text from the top of the open window ("Ontario G8 Club")

2) how do I change the colour of the deviding line between posts? I changed the setting for it to be red, but it only stays red till the page full loads, then it switchs back to the default orange colour

3) Anywhere I can get this image without the arrow in it? I would like to modifly it to have a small Pontiac arrowhead in it (to go with the theam of my site)

that is all for now,
Thanks
Peter G

P.S. I'm still new at all this, so I may need somewhat more detailed instructions...

Maybe this one will help you

Thanks for taking the time to help, I really apprciate it.

I Have installed your Black Pearl Style an its excelent. But i have got a Probleme with it. I am From Germany and so there a some Words longer than the English one. Is it Possible that you make a bigger Texticon in you psd. So that i can make my one new icon.

For Example i have addes the phpbb3 Gallery and the phpBB Portal with your style and there would a icon with the name " Bild hochladen" nice. But this is too long for you Icon.

Would be cool if you can make a longer default icon in your psd.

Also it would be good if you add the font in the folder where the psd is. Because so the users dosent must search the font.

Unfortuantely the font is not free and I cannot include it.

You can check the name of the font in the PSD included in the original package.

Feichti,

you know, that you can download german lang buttons on this site?
http://www.icyphoenix.com/styles/co..._id=black_pearl

Scoll at the end of this site... you will find "Buttons German [de]"

Is this what you want?

Is there a chat_body.html file for AJAX chat by Handyman?
I use the one from subSilver now, but then It doesn't show corners and other things look different.

At the moment there isn't, but you can easily apply rounded corners to that template by looking how rounded corners are implemented in other tpls.

I've used a really easy to use technique.

I am running a phpBB3 forum and love the Black Pearl skin. The only trouble I have is that I can not get it extended so that it will cover the whole screen.
Since I do not need space for Google Ads or so I really would like to have Black Perl running width=100%.
I had a look at the "_mg_config.html" file and changed the $MG_GLOBAL_WIDTH = to 100%, but that somehow does not do the trick as it worked with the "ca_config.html" files in the acidtech skins.
I have a few Black Pearl skins with colour variation, but have them not enabled because they always have a left and right space.
What file and what in it do I have to change to achieve "width 100%"?

Edit:
I just changed to Black Pearl style on this forum and guess what, it is full width, beautyfull!!!!!!!!

For me it is working fine with Firefox... did you empty the cache?

Anyway... try to have a look at this:
http://www.phpbb.com/community/viewtopic.php?p=3235260#p3235260

I have done what is said on http://www.phpbb.com/community/viewtopic.php?p=3235260#p3235260 but i didnt have any result
I have refreshd the template and erased the cache..

How should i fit my site ( www.discutivel.comuf.com ) in a regular 1024x760 screen ??
Best regards

I see your site fitting well 1024px... I guess you have solved your issue.

Yes i did solve the problem yesterday, but i do still have a doubt:
What if i want to insert a space (like the one who is in the left side) in the right side? How do i make the table of the forum ajustable to all the 3 clomuns (left, forum, and right) for 1024x760 ??

Best regards

Did you ever play Tetris?

I'm kidding of course... I cannot answer that question, because the answer depends on many factors and on the elements you are going to add.

I guess forum column should at least need 800px or something like that... if you are going to reduce more than that, you are likely to have display issues on 1024px resolutions.

I want to have a column witht he size of the one already exist (smth like that) to insert google ads

=)

You will need to create a table, that would be the easiest way.

Just insert an overall table which you open in overall_header and you close in overall_footer... so you can have three columns which the mid one is phpBB content.

How can i do that?? im a noob on phpbb =S

Please do not spam the forum with the same requests...

Hey MG and everyone, running the colorize version of Rainbow Pearl, really love the cool colours.

I am a complete newbie at this stuff, and this may have been answered before....... But here goes anyway!!

I want to replace the phoenix logo and the whole of the header with my own website logo. When I tried it all that happened was my logo replaced the phoenix but I couldn't get it to full width. I tried changing the width of the logo to 100%, still no good.

So how do I get rid of everything in the header and just have my logo there instead????

hi warriorpa28

if you want to modify the whole header you may want to take a look at styles/rainbow_pearl/template/overal_header.html

if you just want to mess with the size of the logo you can do this in the admin paneel >>styles>>imagesets>>rainbow pearl>>edit

or for a more permanent edit of that go to styles/rainbow_pearl/imageset/imageset.cfg and find the line looking like img_site_logo = sitelogo_small.png*190*280, the numbers in that line are the preset width and height of the logo

i hope this helped you out alittle
