Changing Category & Forum Headers

[LH Justin]

I need to change the Category and Forum Headers on my forum, but whenever I change it in Pics management it doesn't show up. How do I do this.

The Row Title, the part that says Forum, Replies, Views, and Last Posts.

I dont believe you can change that?

You don't understand what I'm asking, I want to put an image behind the text instead of the plain block block that is there.

I'm sorry, Lh Justin, I'm so very confused, maybe someone else can come a help you.

Okay, I'll use Forumotion as an example. See where the blue arrows are pointing on the image below? There is an image up there, I want to know how to put an image there.

What host have you been using?

What host have you been using?

Why does that matter?

Administrator control Panel => Display => Pics Management => advanced Mode => General Explore

Then, you will have to get the image you want to be behind the sections and place it under the "Background picture (Row category left) :" & "Background picture (Row category right) :", or if you just want the picture to show up on the forum, place your picture in the "Background picture (Row title) :" field.

I know, I put them there, but they didn't show up.

The picture hosting site you used might be the problem...

[notMicElf]

If you just want the picture to show up on the forum, place your picture in the "Background picture (Row title) :" field.

I added that to it, hopefully that contains the answer you seek?

No, I told you, that is the way it already is, it won't show up.

I seriously doubt that, but I'm using PhotoBucket.

Hi!

Please tell me the version you are using and the theme as well.

[LH Justin]

Hi!

Please tell me the version you are using and the theme as well.

I am using punBB and I am creating my own theme, but it is modified from the default punBB theme.

[ankillien]

Use this cSS code...

Code:

.main .main-head {
background-image : url(IMAGE URL) repeat-x;
}

[LH Justin]

Use this cSS code...

Code:

.main .main-head {
background-image : url(IMAGE URL) repeat-x;
}

It didn't work.

[ankillien]

Try this buddy...

Code:

.main .main-head {
background : url(IMAGE URL) repeat top;
}

[LH Justin]

Try this buddy...

Code:

.main .main-head {
background : url(IMAGE URL) repeat top;
}

It's still not working.

[ankillien]

Please give me the url of the image that you are putting as background?

[LH Justin]

Here it is.

[ankillien]

This code works in my forum....

Code:

.main .main-head {
background : url(http://i380.photobucket.com/albums/oo242/LH-Justin/TableHeaderMiddle.png) repeat-x top;
}

Code:

.main .main-head {
background : url(http://i380.photobucket.com/albums/oo242/LH-Justin/TableHeaderMiddle.png) repeat-x top;
}

Okay, that one worked great, but I have one more question. Can I get this image on the left and this image on the right? If not that's okay.

[ankillien]

Hey...
while creating theme for my forum, I thought about that, too.
But punBB doesn't have corner-top classes like phpBB3, so we can't do it.
Sorry.

Yes we can, look at this forum, I just don't know how to do it!

[Guest]

You don't need corner classes to create custom corners. All you need are overlapping elements and some design ingenuity...

And if you ignore IE6/IE7 compatibility, the sky is the limit. How about a quote box with rounded corners and a drop-shadow? No need to wait two years for browsers to support CSS3.0, because everything you need to create one is here today in CSS2.1.

[ankillien]

Dion, why don't you just tell us how to do it.
You can be very helpful

Click on the globe in my post profile.

There's four things on that one page alone that I've seen the "experts" here say is impossible to do. Two are in the post area, two are in the navbar. (The two in the navbar don't work with IE6, but I no longer bother with IE6 compatibility. They do work with IE7 and above.)

Think outside the box...and have fun!

(And to the forumotion techs: your newest method to protect the google ad block has broken the z-index and opacity attributes. Neither can be set properly in the CSS anymore. There are still multiple ways to remove the ads in the CSS -- I've already checked -- so PLEASE, stop this now because you've gone too far. You caught hell for playing these games with the footer block, and thankfully you removed the PHP you added there. Time to do the same with the google ad block.)

[ankillien]

Well, I am not an expert.
I just want to know how to add multiple background images to category header. I really appreciate any help or even a hint from you
