The theme I'm using is my own, modified version of Cobalt.
forum/img only has avatars/ and smilies/

Topic icons aren't there.

I guess I have to modify this part of the CSS:

/* 10.1 These are the post status indicators which appear at the left of some tables. 
.inew = new posts, .iredirect = redirect forums, .iclosed = closed topics and
.isticky = sticky topics. By default only .inew is different from the default.*/

DIV.icon {
    FLOAT: left;
    MARGIN-TOP: 0.1em;
    MARGIN-LEFT: 0.2em;
    DISPLAY: block;
    BORDER-WIDTH: 0.6em 0.6em 0.6em 0.6em;
    BORDER-STYLE: solid
}

DIV.searchposts DIV.icon {MARGIN-LEFT: 0}

/* 10.2 Class .tclcon is a div inside the first column of tables with post indicators. The
margin creates space for the post status indicator */

TD DIV.tclcon {MARGIN-LEFT: 2.3em}

But how do I add the image?

I couldn't find any place to  replace the default topic icons to my own.
Are the current ones dynamically generated?

How can I have my own topic icons (for no new posts, new post, closed forum... and the sort)?

Thanks.

This makes sense. Where can I add these? And for other messengers?

I've seen a lot of posts of people wanting this feature - syndicated the posts as well. I've posted links to this page. I think it helps a lot! Thanks for a great mod!

I'll tell you once I've properly set up my website smile

Right. I think that'll do for now.

I don't want my users to be able to change their display settings.
Is there a way to remove the Display option from user profiles altogether?

I don't want it there because I have a customized theme (http://www.powerofmetal.net/forum) and don't want users to change that. Or the pagination settings.

1) I don't think I want to add those information just yet, so a narrower userdetails area is good.

2) For the bold, I do indeed want to use CSS. But I believe there's already a CSS property for that element, I just want to know which, so that I can make it bold.

3) Thanks! smile But which file do I edit?

Hey all,

Here's my new PunBB installation with "PowerofMetal" theme (my theme, a modification of Sulpher). I've discussed with Rickard about the copyright, by the way.

http://www.powerofmetal.net/forum/


While I've done some modification, thanks to well-commented CSS, I still have some things I haven't figured out. I'd appreciate your help with these: smile


1) How can I decrease the length of the user info area in posts? Posts like this (http://www.powerofmetal.net/forum/viewt … p?pid=5#p5) look strange because that area at the left is too wide.

3) How do I get the category names to be bold. They're blue, but I want them to be bold as well (in stardard PunBB CSS document).

3) I want a <br> in the forum tree (Index » Forum » Post) before the post name. Where can I find the code to do this?


And thanks! I've found that the PunBB user community is really helpful!

I feel I'm getting the placement wrong, although I know I'm putting them in the right places... weird yikes

Update: Tried again. It works! YAY! big_smile

I followed the instructions in the initial post, and I got an error:

Parse error: parse error, unexpected ';' in /home/atlantis/public_html/forum/extern.php on line 339

Line 339 is:

    if (isset($_GET['fid']) && $_GET['fid'] != '')

Could someone please make an extern.php with the News Extension mod already in. I don't want the smileys and avatar features.

Thanks

Will there be an English version, and, as Tobi asked, will it be free?

Oh, thanks.

Great news - it worked! I moved all my includes to /include/user
It's an interesting feature that php code doesn't work from main.tpl. Turned that into an include and pun_include-ed that as well.

You can see the result: http://www.powerofmetal.net/forum/viewtopic.php?id=2

Thanks guys, PunBB is awesome. big_smile

I'll work on the nitty-gritties now smile

Okay, here's the deal. I can design, but programming isn't my cup of tea. I've tried, it just doesn't work out.

For my latest project, I wanted to run my entire site using PunBB as base, and using the extern.php News Extension (http://punbb.org/forums/viewtopic.php?id=7552). Getting posts from the forum shouldn't be too difficult now.

However, I want my forum to fit into my current design. This is what my forum page template looks like: http://powerofmetal.net/forum.php

I wanted the forum in the empty part in the middle.

The thing is, the entire design is seperated into different files and brought together with a bunch of "include_once();" commands, so that I wouldn't have to edit every page for changes in design.

Now this should technically have been easy. There's a header and there's a footer. Thing is, when I tried to use the same "include_once();" commands in /header.php, it didn't work.

Besides, my includes need to link to their own CSS page as well.

The forum is located at http://www.powerofmetal.net/forum I'll need to change the look after it's integrated into the current design.


I appreciate any help at all. First time with PunBB, so... wink

Thanks!

This is exactly what I've been looking for, thanks!

Is Rickard's "News Generator" plugin for a different use? Or does it do something similar?

Thanks, Ian.

Extern.php looks promising. However, it doesn't look like it syndicates entire posts.

I'll have a forum, "Reviews" (where different authors review CDs) and I want recent reviews (say, 2) to be in a php file which is a page in my website.

Any way around this?

Update: I think I've found what I'm looking for: http://punbb.org/forums/viewtopic.php?id=7552
It adds to extern.php so there's a new action which can draw posts from any forum. Excellent! smile

Thanks for your help. Ian.

Hello.

I was looking for a forum from which I could draw posts to have in my website pages. For each page, posts from a different forum.

The news in PunBB.org comes from the forum, as I see. Is this easily possible with my website?

Basically, can PunBB syndicate entire posts so I can use it externally? If not, could you please recommend any other forum software that does this?

Thanks.
