What have you done before the problem was there?
Hi,

I'm thinking about installing your portal mod and was wondering if I could install it successfully if I'm using the twilightbb theme?

Using PHPBB 3.04.

Thanks.

What have you already tryed to solve the problem?

What is your Question?
Just install your Board using the subsilver2 install guide. If you have trouble, ask a precise question

The instructions looks clear however I was looking at the part to edit the theme.

It says you should edit your overall_header.html and seek the following line

<div class="navbar">

However using the TwilightBB theme I don't have this line?

[Mike]

Just skip this part of installation guide. This is only to hide the Navbar in your Portal. But in my opinion the twilightbb without the Nabvar looks weird...
The only thing you should add in the Header is the Portal Link as described in the xml.

Thanks Mike,

Which folder should I copy into styles/twilightbb?

The contents of root/prosilver or root/subsilver 2?

I don't know what my theme is based on. How do I find out?

Also should I expect any graphical problems? Is the Portal generally compatible with most themes?

I've modified all the files, I couldn't perform many of the last steps involving the styles.

I've just got to copy it across now but am very hesitant.

I don't know what my theme is based on.

This Style is based on subsilver2 and therefore you should use the /root/subsilver2 content.

How do I find out?

Have a look on the Source of your Board. If the Style is build by Tables, it is based on subsilver2.
If it build by div boxes, it is based on prosilver.

Also should I expect any graphical problems?

No.

Is the Portal generally compatible with most themes?

yes

I have installed this Theme too, and it works perfectly in Portal.

Well it installed without a hitch, very very seamless!

I am extremely impressed with this mod for phpbb 3.

I used it with version 3.04 with absolutely no problems.

10/10 Kudos to Mike and the rest of the team!

Keep up the good work.
