This is the site: http://relentless-guild.tk/ it is using IP, BP for IP, Patch & CMS ADV. 1. You will notice to the right of the banner is a small gap between that and the right hand side shadow. You can just make out the gradient behind. As you probably have guessed, in order to get the banner image up there I simply renamed and replaced /templates/mg_themes/images/p_black/sitelogo_small.png. I've had a play with the ACP > Configuration > Headers & Banners > Banner Management section, I added a simple img src tag, but I think this is also wrong. Can someone fill me in or point me in the right direction on the correct method of changing the top banner? 2. I would like to change the background for the title bars of the blocks on the front page. (Recent, Welcome, User Block, Ventrilo, Who Is Online, Statistics, etc). This appearance is also used for the category blocks on the forums and quite a few places through-out. I would like to change this to the background used at the top navigation (Home, Forum, New, Profile, Search, FAQ, Log out). I've had a look at style_p_black.css but to no avail :oops: If you take a look at: http://meh.bemyhero.co.uk/portal.php you can see they have achieved this, and for only the blocks on the front page, the background remains on the category forum title bars. I don't think they are using IP though, only phpbb and the bp theme. 3. Can I remove the two collapsable boxes when you view a forum? (Icon Description & Permissions List) Thank you; any help will be very much appreciated. If you need any clarifications please ask. ----------------------------------- Lopalong Fri 30 May, 2008 06:12 Re: A Few Questions, Blackpearl - Topbanner And Titlebars ----------------------------------- One thing at a time. The "gap" is more than likely this conflict.
http://www.crimsonsun.centelia.net/guild/templates/mg_themes/images/p_black/sitelogo_small.png is 964x300 Your banner is wider than the forum width you have set? The rest of your questions means editing a whole lot of templates and .css Your permission and legend blocks you should find in view_forum.tpl and view_topic.tpl and there are also the same sort of blocks in Album etc. ;) ----------------------------------- crimsonsun Fri 30 May, 2008 13:24 Re: A Few Questions, Blackpearl - Topbanner And Titlebars ----------------------------------- Hi, thank you so much for the reply. 1. Ok, Yes - the banner image displayed was 964px, it was originally 960px but this is when I first noticed the gap, so I added on 4px to the image in hope that it would fill the gap, instead it was just extended. I have replaced the 964px image with the original 960px image so you can see my orginal result. :( Any ideas? The original IP sitelogo_small.png was left aligned, I have not changed this; perhaps this is the cause? If so, where shall I edit? 2. Well in order to achieve this, what are the steps that would need to be completed? Can you point out the key files of interest? I'm having a bit of a play now, I'll post any progress. 3. I have now managed to remove the Permission List and Icon Description boxes in viewtopic_body.tpl & viewforum_body.tpl - Thank you very much :mryellow: I used Dreamweaver to edit the .tpl files, took about 20 seconds in WYSIWYG mode. Fantastic. Kind Regards ----------------------------------- Lopalong Fri 30 May, 2008 13:42 Re: A Few Questions, Blackpearl - Topbanner And Titlebars ----------------------------------- Do the header last ;) For the Quick-Links menu you will have to edit nav_quick_links.tpl If you remove the class from the first Headers section, removing the cell has fixed the problem. 2. I notice towards the end of mg_themes.cfg are the Might Gorgon Rounded Corners, there is also a rounded table text file.. However if you take another look at the site: http://relentless-guild.tk you will notice I've managed to edit it slighty, by way of [b]style_p_black.css[/b] I've tried many different combinations of changing the Header Left, Header Right, Header Center. Only the center seems to make any difference.. I can not get rid of the rounded corners, that is the only problem I have.. How to remove the rounded corners? Thank you, again :oops: ----------------------------------- Lopalong Sat 31 May, 2008 23:32 Re: A Few Questions, Blackpearl - Topbanner And Titlebars ----------------------------------- Replace the rounded-corner graphics with square ones cut from a screen-shot of your forum. Make them the same dimensions as the rounded ones because unfortunately IP themes have in place not only "fixed" width's in the script - mg_themes.cfg - but also in the .css to do the same thing. Unless you feel comfortable in editing both to remove those restrictions, then simply make them the same size. ;) Not sure why you would have to remove block-markup from the header, but I will have a look at that later on. When I can access your site. :P
