hey guys, I've got a little problem with the tutorial to add multi-themes selector for ur forum

https://help.forumotion.com/t71484-add-multi-themes-to-your-forum


i've tried them on my forum , exactly the same as the tutorial told. but I couldn't find out why it doesn't work at all.


I hope u guys can help me solve the problem. I need to see the example forum that have successfully implemented that multi-themes selector. I really have no idea how will it looks like.

The script "http://testorial.forumotion.com/h9-multithemev3" is broken.

aha ! really ? did u mean the attachment multi-themes text at the bottom of the page ?

So, is it the author's mistake ?

do u have any idea to make it work ? or do u have any example of the implementation on any forums ?

Hi,

the code I provided with the tutorial was working at thee time, I haven't tested it since
I have had to update it since however, which I tested at the time & it had worked.

Could I ask, what's wrong, is it not showing?

This is the multi theme script. Remember to read the remainder of the post before you jump ahead.

and above is exactly the same as yours, all I changed is only the word "default, custom theme 1/2/3 " and so did the link.

However, I've added <script type=text/javascript src=http://clan-gnr.forumid.net/h2-multithemes></script> to my site's description, but it doesn't seems to show any changes in my top left corner

Thank you very much for ur attention, nice to see u here

I'm happy to help, especially on my days off

Hum bug. Sounds like an all nighter tomorrow, good thing Im prepared.

For now, this should be able to help, the code is based off of this, if it isnt the same. I dont remember
The updated version of this tutorial will be based on this code as well.

I just tried that tutorial (I use Invision) less than a month ago, and it worked perfectly.
