Just what the topic says. I'd like to have the old one back if it's possible. Also, can't find the link to my posts.
TIA!

sorry, to say that this is the new layout and I won't be bringing the other one back. This is a melding of the CMS solution drupal and phpbb3. Allows the administrators to have a lot more "toys" and content management options.

There really is no way for me to make the old one an option, since the header is tied into the layout now. ;)

Sorry to hear you don't care for it. I really like it, but that could have to do with the fact that I created it. As for the link to your posts I will add it. I didn't catch everything when I finally finished all the changes at 5am :blush:

Please do however let me know if you see anything that is broken!

Oh well, i guess i'll have to tweak this one now. I'm not fond of that white with blue 'frame'. I also don't see the PMs - how will they show (if you have any). It used to be right in my face on every page (and i liked it).
Also, the dark font of the mouseover menus against rather bright dark blue header is unreadable (to me).
Looks like i have some work to do.

EDIT: without my style, that font looks actually white - still just as unreadable (white against white)(, took a while to find it in the first place.

Any chance you can send me that .css just to make it a bit easier for me to tweak? TIA!

I am not sure which part you are referring to... maybe the header with the blue background?

it will be plenty visible.

I don't know if you got the same color as me...

I would never do white against white, so I am not sure where you are getting that. which css would you like? the one up now, or the previous one?

It's all right. I'm almost done. The only thing i can't still hide is the white box around the drupal/copyright, at the very bottom of pages. I have this:

/*copyright box */
div#postcontent
{ background-color: transparent !important; }

but this is what's left: Image

Oh, the white 'frame' i was talking about is #drupwrapper. Added that to my background image and it's all fine now.

I do have a huge space on top:

This is the css that styles the drupal footer:
Code: Select all
div#postcontent {
background:#F2F2F2 url(/themes/pluralism/images/img11.gif) repeat-x scroll 0 0;
margin:10px 50px 0;
padding:10px 28px;

You should be able to mess with the background part.

For the huge space, that is where our logo is supposed to be. The logo is a background on a <h1> tag.
Code: Select all
<div id="druplogo">
        <a title="Home of the Custom Buttons² Extension for Firefox" href="/" style=""><h1 id="logo" style="background-image: url(/forum/styles/prosilver/imageset/site_logo.png); background-repeat: no-repeat; background-position: 60px 15px; text-decoration: none; text-indent: -9000em;" class="site-name">Custom Buttons²</h1></a><div class="site-slogan">Home of the Custom Buttons² Extension for Firefox</div>      </div>


Additionally, the site slogan is supposed to be below the logo, so perhaps your logo has gotten shifted above the visible area.

Done now! The logo space is still huge, don't know what to do with that yet. But the rest is looking good.
Thanks, nicholas! Don't stay up that late or your wife will fire you ;)
