Yes, I noticed that too 
Am slowly making my way through it and am seeing results. Found this to be useful;
.odd .post-entry, .brd .odd .postbody, .brd .odd .posthead {
background: blue;
border-left-color: blue;
}
Similar for .even.
Also, to rid yourself of that block under James-Guest, comment out the background declaration in:
.brd .post {
/* background: #EDF1F5;*/
}
Thanks, that helps.
Following your lead, I tried to change the background of the post body and had some success, as shown in this image;
However, I would like the background of the entire post to be colored; so not only the frame of dark blue, but the light blue border surrounding it as well (but not past the Report Delete Topic... line).
I couldn't seem to decipher how to do this from the current layout. Is such a thing possible?
Hi Slavok,
I tried the validators you suggested; the html validator passed 100%. The css validator seems to be broken right now, site returns a single line: "Servlet has thrown exception:javax.servlet.ServletException: Timed out" (there are no servlets on my page so this must be the validator's error)
It's interesting. Why do the error pages for admin use the main.tpl and the other admin pages use admin.tpl? I think this is the part of the problem.
If it helps, this is one of the error pages that exhibits the behavior;
http://www.yoursite.com/forums/admin/fo … ion=adddel
- Replace yoursite.com/forums with your site's v1.3 punBB forum address.
- Make sure you're logged in as an admin.
Redneck, there is a way to do this for v1.2, but it requires some hand editing and some mojo.
Search the v1.2 forums here and you'll no doubt find the info.
Both this form and the post topic form have similar html. Is there any problem with the post topic form?
It appears yes the same issue in post topic frm, so false alarm. I will fix it in the .css (and that will hopefully fix it in the PM)
Ahh ok, great. I look forward to the next update.
Another user recently suggested Firebug, and it's awesome. Definitely useful (too bad I didn't use it for 90% of the custom style! 
)
No, I haven't. So it would seem for admin errors (like the above) the main.tpl is being used (but stripped of css?)
Strangely, it appears both the confirm and captcha info texts are using the same CSS (according to Firebug), yet appear differently as shown in the above image...
Are there some settings in the extension that would make this so?
Garciat, thanks for the tip. If Firebug does what you say it does, it will be invaluable.
I don't actively develop on Firefox, but do have it installed. Just installed Firebug per your request...
I'm seeing a weird error. I've updated main.tpl to encapsulate my site around the forum. This works in 99% of the cases.
Normally when administering the board, the wrapper content is stripped (showing a very simple large fonted version of the current skin), but without the site 'wrapper' content & CSS. This also works in 99% of the cases.
The issue is the exception. When there is an admin error like the timeout error, then it shows some of the main.tpl wrapper content, save for the wrapper CSS, and just looks horrible.
Is there a way around this? Sounds like a bug, where the admin error template is not stripping out the wrapper content when there is an admin error, different than how it normally would on admin screens.
Look at the space between "Re-enter..." and the field above it, and the space between "Please enter..." and the field above it...
Does the captcha re-use CSS for similar fields around it? I've adjusted the CSS for the info texts "re-enter your email..." but the Captcha info text doesn't seem to be affected. Here is a screen cap:
You can see how the info text overlaps the captcha field above it. This is how the others looked until I updated the CSS for
.brd .sf-box, .brd .mf-box, .brd .txt-box {But captcha doesn't seem to be affected by this.
Installed this plugin on a custom styled fixed-width forum.
Am seeing the To & Subject fields appear out of width, and the whole entry area isn't left justified, sort of sits in the middle:
Not sure if what I'm seeing is a style issue or a result of how the plugin is set up but thought I'd share here. Any ideas on how to fix this?
Adding, would like to change the colors of the little square icons in the forum list, but could not find it in the .css. There was mention to the class icon, but nothing I tried worked.
This version is really amazing, so many new cool things, it's really great.
Despite the lack of an updated spink CSS editor, I'm hacking up a new custom style. I'm very much not a CSS guru, so there are a couple of things I'm having trouble with:
* In forum view, want to change spacing so that the forum name & details have more column priority. Right now there is a lot of column width given to the Topic & Post Counts & Date and it looks crappy on my fixed width forum.
* Want to change the background color of odd & even entries in a thread; which css settings control this? I thought that this would do it:
\0
but it doesn't.
* Want to change the font and list definitions in posts but couldn't find the .css for this.
* The announcement spacing is different from the forum view and the post view... want it to be the same.
* Want to change how the values for the user info (# of posts, IP, etc.) appears... cannot find this.
There are others, and I'm slowly making my way through it. In general, would appreciate it if the default theme's css was better commented to facilitate style creation. It's very tedious to go through and look at each page and try to guess & infer which css is going to affect which part of the source, especially with colors & styles split between files.
.brd .main-item .odd {
background: #F8D029;
}Ahh ok. Ignore this... dupe!
For example, go here; http://punbb.informer.com/forums/post/119136/#p119136
Then click on Reply between Edit & Quick quote on the post (not at the bottom of the page) and you'll get a 404.
Ok, I'll give it a shot. 
Glad to hear there is some progress. Will that effort include wiki documentation?
With that great website for creating v1.2 styles, it seems amiss to launch v1.3 without an update to it, or even just some simple but definitive "this control is now called X" etc. wiki entries.
bump
Cannot use v1.3 until styles are somewhat documented... preferably with info on converting v1.2 styles still waiting... 
8 days since the excellent v1.3 launch and no wiki info on styles?
When will we see info on 1.3 styles? I'm dying over here...
Hmm... I doubt I can wait as long as it will take to get the docs going. I will attempt to manually adapt Oxygen to match my site in the meantime. If you've _any_ info that will help this, please advise.
In any case, thanks for the super release, v1.3 is really great work!
I've copied over a 1.2.x style to the new 1.3 style directory, but it doesn't appear in the 1.3 Admin settings (only Oxygen appears).
What steps are needed to updates styles for 1.3? Docs are a bit sparse ATM.
