I won't register just for my own ease - but can users still change the forum colour in their profile?
It seems a shame to have such a nice colour scheme wasted by someone changing their profile

Re: Shopping cart system in the spirit of PunBB? (12 replies, posted in General discussion)
Your best bet is to trawl through the open source ones if you want something thats free.
One of the most popular ones is "OS Commere", which like PunBB, is PHP-based. Theres a readme that comes with it and theres support forums on their website which makes it fairly easy to install if you can manage to install PunBB too.
As with most of the Open Source shopping cart programs, you can change the look of the site to some extent.
It really depends on what you're selling as to what are "needless and complex features" - but OS Commerce looks nice and is easy to navigate. Supports Paypal too.
If that one doesn't appeal to you then as I say just whack "open source shopping cart" into Google and the world is your oyster

There's plenty of nice-looking PunBBs, out there, but I think Kennel would agree with me that theres only a few that have really regular posts

Re: smtp error - connection refused (4 replies, posted in PunBB 1.2 troubleshooting)
If your account is a oneandone account, then I'm not sure smtp.1and1.com is correct.
I have a domain ordered from oneandone.co.uk and the FAQ shows that the SMTP is "auth.smtp.oneandone.co.uk" - I'm not sure where you are from but I'd advise checking the SMTP settings of the provider.
Check this link to see if it solves your problem at all..

If the problem is framed based redirection, isn't there some easy way of automatically breaking out of the frame and forcing the site to reload at its true location. Of course you would then get the sites real address showing up rather than the domain.
Not easy for everyone I see what you mean but not sure how to do it

Topic: www.WorldFans.com (2 replies, posted in PunBB 1.2 show off)
I bought this doman a while and haven't made much use of it yet - but I've uploaded the forums to some crappy Lycos webspace to "practice" the admin of PunBB.
You can either go to here or here, it makes no difference.
Basically I wanted to show my own style sheet that I have made. I also bought www.TheRasmus.co.uk, a band I like, and so the CSS file has been altered to make the forums look similar to the official www.therasmus.com website.
Also running the very cool PunPoll! If you go to therasmus.com you can see what I was trying to achieve with the style sheet.
And I apologise for the annoying Lycos/Tripod advert invasion

Re: Quick skinning question (8 replies, posted in PunBB 1.2 troubleshooting)
Oh - I just sorted it. In the skinning guide it said that "Whitespace = TABLE.punplain", which didn't have a background colour property in the CSS. So I wrote one in and that caused the colouring
Might be something to add as a caution note to the Skinning Guide

Re: Quick skinning question (8 replies, posted in PunBB 1.2 troubleshooting)
I changed the CSS file for both TR.puncon* and TD.puncon.
I can't remember changing anything in viewtopic.php that would have done this.

Topic: Quick skinning question (8 replies, posted in PunBB 1.2 troubleshooting)
I know that when you post, the colours alternate between TR.puncon1 and TR.puncon2 - however when I change one of these, its only the area around the text that changes.
Its as if there is a frame that the poster details (seen on the left - Username, Title, Posts, Registered, IP), and actual posted text and the "Website/Email" links.
I've had a look at vewtopic.php and there doesn't seem to be any reference to this colour change. Hoepfully the screenshot will help explain:
I want the pointed-to colours, to be the same as the surrounding areas.
Any ideas?
