I digg the ones that are the same as the default styles that come with PunBB like in post #9. But that's just me.

I have a few minutes I'll give it a shot.

never thought such a plain theme would look so appealing.

i, like many others, think that they both have there place. i own a vB license and run a PunBB board. in fact i switched the vB board TO PunBB. wink

to answer your question, i could find a use for it but i'm not going to switch my PunBB board to it.

that is not a default feature in PunBB 1.2.15 but will be default in 1.3.

yes, upload the file named turn_off_maintenance_mode.php and run it like so:  www.yoursite.com/forum/turn_off_maintenance_mode.php then delete the file.

@Tjalve: would you mind sharing that style when you're done? I've been looking to make the user info on top of the posts like you've got it now.

edit: found how you did the info on top: http://punbb.org/forums/viewtopic.php?id=16996

i'd stil be interested in the style tho.

is that style going to be public? it looks cool from what i see.

cool! nice and simple like Oxygen.

i was browsing the dev.punbb.org and saw this on the roadmap of 1.3. can someone give me an example or 2 of how these will be beneficial to a forum admin/member?

i'm not sure i understand what these are so this is why i asked. i've even read both websites and i'm still kinda confused.

a) will only work if it's a fresh board and/or someone tries to update their sig, it doesn't remove them so current sigs are still intact.

what do you mean hosted by PunBB? do you mean PunBB-Hosting? if so you'll have to take it up at his support forums.

open your ftp program* and navigate to the forum's root directory, right click the cache folder and goto properties then set the permissions accordingly.

*this all depends on your ftp app.

Dr. Jeckyl: Your screen caps don't show the sig area. What they show is the sig area plus the empty space underneath it. Give div.postsignature a background colour and you will see what I mean.

aha... now how do i go about making it a fixed size until it's needed by the users sig and not defined by the post size? or will it be more trouble than it's worth.

also in the post.php there a list with the message goes
rows="20" does that not set the height of the message box?

<textarea name="req_message" rows="20" cols="95" tabindex="<?php echo $cur_index++ ?>"><?php echo isset($_POST['req_message']) ? pun_htmlspecialchars($message) : (isset($quote) ? $quote : ''); ?></textarea>

if i'm not mistaken this defines the size of the text box for posting a post or quick post?

Its an optical illusion. It is always the same size, it just appears larger when the post is short because there is blank space underneath it.

unless it's my style that's doing this, which i don't remember what i edited, i'm going to have to disagree with you boss. wink

with user info:

without user info:
http://www.theplatoon.com/uploads/thumbs/4_sigtest_without_info.png  http://www.theplatoon.com/uploads/thumbs/4_sigtest_without_info2.png

it's not a big deal. it's just something i noticed and was wondering how and if it can be fixed.


i'll check out the user info above the post a bit later.

i'm assuming the second part of my question would have something to do with this part of viewtopic.php?:

<div id="p<?php echo $cur_post['id'] ?>" class="blockpost<?php echo $vtbg ?><?php if (($post_count + $start_from) == 1) echo ' firstpost'; ?>">
    <h2><span><span class="conr">#<?php echo ($start_from + $post_count) ?> </span><a href="viewtopic.php?pid=<?php echo $cur_post['id'].'#p'.$cur_post['id'] ?>"><?php echo format_time($cur_post['posted']) ?></a></span></h2>

the area under the line where someone's sig would go is inconsistent with the size of the post. let me exaplain:

one line post, the area is quite tall. example:
http://www.theplatoon.com/uploads/thumbs/4_sig.png

more than one line in the post and the area shrinks.

how would i go about making it smaller and grow if the user's sig requires it instead of the size of the post dictating how big it is?

also, has anyone tried to modify the post "template" to have the user info on top of the post and was successful?

i'm kinda surprised this isn't a default feature. clickable board name/logo.
