Description and Message
I have to be doing something wrong, I just can't put my finger on what it is. I updated from 1.0.2 to 1.0.3, everything went smooth, the update was successfull, but the new .png images don't show on the portal blocks, the old ones still show, I have refreshed template, themes, imagesets and purged chache until I was blue in the face, still shows the old images.

I added the new portal block images over the existing ones, I looked at the file and it shows duplicate files for almost every image, one being in .gif format and .png format, that didn't look right to me so I deleted all the old ones and just added the new ones, that resulted in no images at all showing, so I added the old ones back with the new ones, it currently shows the old ones, what am I doing wrong?

Try refreshing your browser cache by pressing Ctrl+F5

styles/se_pro/theme/images/portal/portal_random.gif

Simply upload the new prosilver template files to your se_pro template directory.
Example on your webspace: <img src="{T_THEME_PATH}/images/portal/portal_attach.gif" <-- this is definitely an old one.

ok, I applied all the new template files and now have the images showing....BUT...I lost all of the boarders around the blocks, not sure what happened?

Knowledge Base: _block_config.html: adapt blocks to your style

[FLATTOP]

thanks Mike for the help, I have the boarders back now, it was user error that's what happens when you don't upload all the new files.

If you want to have the Borders around all the Blocks, try this config:

Demo

Code: Select all

<!--version $Id: _block_config.html 479 2009-03-15 11:19:27Z kevin74 $ //-->
<!-- Config for the left and right blocks //-->
<!-- DEFINE $LR_BLOCK_H_L = '<div class="forabg"><div class="inner"><span class="corners-top"><span></span></span><ul class="topiclist"><li class="header"><dl><dt style="white-space: nowrap">' -->

<!-- DEFINE $LR_BLOCK_F_R = '<span class="corners-bottom"><span></span></span></div></div><br style="clear:both" />' -->

<!-- Config for the center blocks //-->
<!-- DEFINE $C_BLOCK_H_L = '<div class="forabg"><div class="inner"><span class="corners-top"><span></span></span><ul class="topiclist"><li class="header">' -->

Yes that is exactly what I would like to do, thanks Mike!! where do I put the code?

*EDIT* found it, sorry, it tells me right in the code where to put it...

It works great, thanks again Mike!!

[FLATTOP]

I have everything back to normal except one small issue, I can't seem to get the arrowbullet.gif images to appear on the menu, users menu or the links blocks. I uploaded the images to the image folder, what could be the issue?

[Mike]

Already cleared your caches?

And please have a look at this:
Knowledge Base: How to avoid Invisible Credits

[FLATTOP]

Yes I have cleared the cache, it has me stumped as to why there not showing, all the other graphics are displaying properly, any ideas?

*sidenote* thanks for the heads up Mike about the credit, when I did the update to 1.0.3 it went back to invisible with the new files, I had that fixed per this thread, haha

[Mike]

And you uploaded all the files from prosilver, inclusive portal.css and so on?

I had that fixed per this thread, haha

lol...

[FLATTOP]

Yes Mike, I have uploaded all the files, I'm sure it's something simple, I just can't put my finger on it.
The images are in the correct folder, I can see the image in the folder, I checked the .css file, it points to the image, it just doesn't show for some reason. I have refreshed my template,theme,imageset and purged the board cache numerous times, even refreshed my browser numerous times, still no luck.

[Mike]

Uhhh... that was hard to find out...
Did you changed your main_menu.html?

open:
/styles/se_pro/template/portal/block/main_menu.html

find:

Code: Select all

<div id="navigation" style="padding-top:0px">

replace with:

Code: Select all

<div class="portal-navigation">

[FLATTOP]

Thanks Mike, that fixed it, I did that code edit to the main menu, user menu and the links files, all is well now.
