Solved Design problems with skin "Pro Blue"

Post by Talk March 8th 2013, 3:08 pm

For my forum DiscoveredLife.com I've installed the beautiful skin Pro Blue (check link) under Phpbb3.

I have 3 problems with it:

1.) Only the site description appears in the header. How can I insert my site name "Discovered Life" into the header, too (in a bigger line above)?

2.) The "Online" button gets cut by the avatar. How can I bring it to the front, so it will be visible?

3.) When I move my mouse above a category or a topic a picture with the words "Merry Christmas" appears. Since Christmas is already over, how can I change it (e. g. into "Please click!")?

Thanks in advance!

1) In a screenshot can you show where you want to move it? Thank you.
2) Please provide a test account to see the online icon, thank you.
3) Can you please post your CSS? Thank you.

1.) I would like to add my site name in a new row after the forum main logo - and before the row for the site description (see first screenshot in my first post).

2.) I've opened the new user "Forumotion" with the following password (which I will delete after problem solving):

Spoiler:
I've created a topic for you where you can check it out: http://www.discoveredlife.com/t4-test-by-forumotion

3.) This hint was already helpful. I have to change the picture in the CSS code here:

Code:
li.row:hover {
background: url(http://i62.servimg.com/u/f62/14/52/65/41/mc10.png) 100% 100%
Hence number 3 is solved.

4.) May I ask another question in addition?

How can I add an information like this on top of my forum (as seen on most other forums)?

Usually this information appears in all other skins, but not in the skin "Pro Blue".

1) You want to insert it into the banner, correct?
2) Try adding this into your CSS:
[code].postprofile {
color: #666;
margin: 0.5em;
}
4) Forum version? Can you also provide the URL of the forum inside that screenshot? Thanks

1.) No, I would like to have it under the banner (in an extra line).

I found the setting in the ACP under "Headers & Navigation":
Design problems with skin "Pro Blue" Title10

Number 1 is solved now.


2.) No change has happened after inserting the CSS code.

But I was experimenting and exchanged margin: 0.5em; with margin-top: 20px;. Now it's working fine.

Number 2 is solved now.


4.) With the skin "Pro Blue" my forum is using Phpbb3 now.

That screenshot in my last post is from WebDomainForum.com, but that is using PunBB. Is this possible for Phpbb3, too?

It would be helpful if the forum member could see somewhere his user name that is logged in, because this information is missing (in this skin only).

Number 1 - 3 are solved. Only number 4 is still open.

Is it possible to display the name of the forum member logged in also under Phpbb3 (e. g. as in the screenshot)?

I just found out the forum member name appears with hover effect.

That is good enough for me; hence all my problems are solved now.

No, problem.

You gave me useful hints and the rest I found out by experimenting.

This topic can be closed.

Alright then,


Since the user has found his answers by himself, thread garbage.
