Olympus theme for 2x

[jimmygoon]

So I packaged up all the "patches" and "fixes" and made a few of my own (copying the background-header image from the phpbb3 cvs build as well as changing the (?!?!) absolute positioning of the text in it so that it lines up properly... it is currently uploading so please be patient... the link shall come soon... I will post when I make any updates to it... I love CSS hacking

http://www.jimmygoon.com/projects/files/olympus.zip" target="_blank is the current one... you can see it at
http://www.jimmygoon.com/phpbb" target="_blank <-- be gentle I haven't had time to set up the config stuff

So thats all for now. Lemme know how that turns out. BTW: I just emailed the NG Evolution guy to see if he is coming back or if he has a more current copy of the theme he was working on.

Please use "{L_INDEX}" instead of "Board Index" ... there are other languages too ...

Please use "{U_MARK_READ}" instead of "{U_MARK_FORUMS}" ... and the link will work.

Um... I just copied and pasted... I will have to try to see what you are talking about when I get home from school today. Sorry about that..

Updated with the two small changes listed above:
new download: http://www.jimmygoon.com/projects/files/olympus-1.zip" target="_blank
again: test forum is at http://www.jimmygoon.com/phpbb" target="_blank but there is no link to the groupcp.php file which means I can't add moderators which is slightly annoying but meh...

hint: if someone gives me the code to add that link I surely would and I would make a new zip also there is apparently a font problem with yahoo (probably IE)'s browser... any idea...? hard for me to test with linux

edit600: at the top in the "Breadcrumb" area on the index page my forum name is listed but on subsequent page it reverts to "board index" ... is there somewhere else where that variable needs to be changed and if so... where? thanks (edit601: just found it in viewtopic_body.tpl but don't feel like updating the zip file yet... will with next revision with whatever changes y'all have... hopefully that groupcp.php link )

Code: Select all

<a href="{U_GROUP_CP}" class="mainmenu"><img src="templates/olympus/images/icon_mini_groups.gif" width="12" height="13" border="0" alt="{L_USERGROUPS}" hspace="3" />{L_USERGROUPS}</a>

Thats the code to add for the groupcp.php page.

where all does it need to go? I've added it to the "over_header.tpl" page... anywhere else?? if not... respond and I'll zip it and upload it...

[theman05]

just in overall_header.tpl

just in overall_header.tpl

In that case... http://www.jimmygoon.com/projects/files/olympus-2.zip" target="_blank

I would change the font sizes with "%" in a fixe size, because with some Browsers they are shown up very small

For example:

p.topictitle { margin: 1px 0px; display: inline; font-size: 65%; font-weight: bold; }
[...]
p.searchbar { margin: 0px; font-size: 60%; white-space: nowrap; }
.tablebg,.forumline { background-color: #A9B8C2; }
.topbg { background-color: #EFEFEF; border: 1px #A9B8C2; }
p.breadcrumbs { margin: 0px; float: left; color: black; font-size: 60%; font-weight: bold; white-space: normal; }
p.datetime { margin: 0px; float: right; font-size: 60%; white-space: nowrap; }
.cat { height: 28px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; background-color: #C7D0D7; background-image: url('./images/cellpic1.gif'); text-indent: 4px; }
.titles { color: black; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-weight: bold; font-size: 130%; text-decoration: none; }
p.moderators { margin: 0px; float: left; color: black; font-size: 60%; font-weight: bold; }

I've changed them to "11px"

index_body.tpl

The Link "Mark Forums Read" is visible for guests.

<table width="100%" cellspacing="1" class="tablebg"> <!-- cellpadding="2" border="0" align="center" -->

<tr>
<td class="cat" colspan="5" align="right"><a class="nav" href="{U_MARK_READ}">{L_MARK_FORUMS_READ}</a>&nbsp;</td>
</tr>


</table>

<table width="100%" cellspacing="1" border="0" class="tablebg">
<tr>
<th colspan="2" class="thCornerL" height="25" nowrap="nowrap">&nbsp;{L_FORUM}&nbsp;</th>
<th width="50" class="thTop" nowrap="nowrap">&nbsp;{L_TOPICS}&nbsp;</th>
<th width="50" class="thTop" nowrap="nowrap">&nbsp;{L_POSTS}&nbsp;</th>
<th class="thCornerR" nowrap="nowrap">&nbsp;{L_LASTPOST}&nbsp;</th>
</tr>
<!-- BEGIN catrow -->

I've changed this part in this:

<table width="100%" cellspacing="1" border="0" class="tablebg">
<!-- BEGIN switch_user_logged_in -->
<tr>
<td class="cat" colspan="5" align="right"><a class="nav" href="{U_MARK_READ}">{L_MARK_FORUMS_READ}</a>&nbsp;</td>
</tr>
<!-- END switch_user_logged_in -->
<tr>
<th colspan="2" class="thCornerL" height="25" nowrap="nowrap">&nbsp;{L_FORUM}&nbsp;</th>
<th width="50" class="thTop" nowrap="nowrap">&nbsp;{L_TOPICS}&nbsp;</th>
<th width="50" class="thTop" nowrap="nowrap">&nbsp;{L_POSTS}&nbsp;</th>
<th class="thCornerR" nowrap="nowrap">&nbsp;{L_LASTPOST}&nbsp;</th>
</tr>
<!-- BEGIN catrow -->

*sigh*

The fonts were changed from fixed sizes to relative sizes to improve usability (eg: retardation of Internet Explorer).

If the fonts show up unusually small, then it is because the users browser settings are set to render fonts smaller.
