Description and Message
Hi looking at my board index my portal link is sort of messed up, and also my portal page almost looks different to the demo version of subsliver. The icons are different for the menu etc..

Can anyone else notice that? Also if I wanted to use subsilver special edition as my style instead of subsilver how would go about that? They are very alike so I assume it wouldnt be too hard? Thanks very much!

You haven't refreshed the theme, ACP -> Styles -> Themes -> prosilver -> refresh.

For subsilver2 look in the contrib folder for the install file.

Oh brilliant that fixed the portal style difference but the portal button on the board index is still messed up. I assume i made a mistake in the overall_header perhaps?

Yeh, the portal link needs to go before the board link. IE bwtween <li class="icon-home"> and <a href=

Code: Select all

<li class="icon-home"><a href="{U_INDEX}" accesskey="h">{L_INDEX}</a> <!-- BEGIN navlinks --> <strong>&#8249;</strong> <!-- IF U_PORTAL --><a href="{U_PORTAL}">{L_PORTAL}</a> &#187; <!-- ENDIF --> <a href="{navlinks.U_VIEW_FORUM}">{navlinks.FORUM_NAME}</a><!-- END navlinks --></li>
I put it in between those but nothing has changed, i even refreshed the page. Thats what the line looks like.

In the install file it says BEFORE the index link.

For example:

Code: Select all

<li class="icon-home"><!-- IF U_PORTAL --><a href="{U_PORTAL}">{L_PORTAL}</a> &#187; <!-- ENDIF --><a href="{U_INDEX}" accesskey="h">{L_INDEX}</a> <!-- BEGIN navlinks --> <strong>&#8249;</strong>  <a href="{navlinks.U_VIEW_FORUM}">{navlinks.FORUM_NAME}</a><!-- END navlinks --></li>

Still the same for some reason

Code: Select all

				<li class="icon-home"><!-- IF U_PORTAL --><a href="{U_PORTAL}">{L_PORTAL}</a> &#187; <!-- ENDIF --><a href="{U_INDEX}" accesskey="h">{L_INDEX}</a> <!-- BEGIN navlinks --> <strong>&#8249;</strong>  <a href="{navlinks.U_VIEW_FORUM}">{navlinks.FORUM_NAME}</a><!-- END navlinks --></li>
Thats what I have and yet its still the same

Just looking, the footer is the same aswell.

Have you refreshed the cache after making style changes?

I am having one problem now though, the style seems to be stuck on prosilver and wont change to prosilver special edition even though, its the default style its still showing prosilver and thats not the default style!

I've deactivated it, refreshed everything possible, cleared cookies everything. Prosilver special edition did work earlier! The preview of prosilver special edition works perfectly shows everything.

But it just seems like its stuck on prosilver, ive tried all the basics to deactivate reactivate change the defaults around everything!

Change your own style to prosilver SE in your UCP. ;)

You need to change the style of the default "Anonymous" user.

I did that, it worked, but that'll be only for me though, everyone else will still prosilver? I also did over ride userstyle
