well then yaaay.
Well I dont have much of a face around here, I have been off and on the boards in the past, but would like to be around more regularly and am interested in getting involved in the project, so if you need some hands with web design/maintenance, my expertise is with html, php...phpbb...mysql...apache...etc..etc...
Let me know if there are things I could do to start out.

You cant change anything in that file...its autogenerated, so it will overwrite any changes you make.
What needs to change is the file
viewforum_body.html and find the section:
change that section to:
You can change the border type, by changing the border-style tag to another property. ie. double, dotted, dashed.
If you want to change color you can add border-color within the "style" tag. or you can combine everything into a single tag of border like this:

Just to be clear I'd like to have a border around each topic row in the topic list:
http://forums.themanaworld.org/viewforum.php?f=11
That file is just an export containing all the values I can directly change through the admin panel. If they're not enough I can directly change the css, so no need to override style.

in overall_header.html, there is a line you may need to change:
Yours may have a different value for the color...find out which value this is, and you can change that value through the admin panel as:
td_color1
td_color2
td_color3
(whichever value is assigned the .forumline tag)
Code: Select all
.forumline { background-color: {T_TD_COLOR2};
td_color1
td_color2
td_color3
(whichever value is assigned the .forumline tag)
I'm a little confused about why it's such a big deal to convert from phpbb2 to 3. If people suddenly had to reregister and start with a blank board, I don't think there would be any significant complaints, besides junk like "I miss my post count" .. though I don't have a gajillion posts like some of you guys.

you cant really just restart the forums from scratch, because the forums serve more of a purpose then just an immediate means of communication, one of the ideas behind having a forum is that previous posts and topics, can be searched so that you have only new and fresh topics, and evolving content.
The conversion is not such a big deal, it seems that having people help with the webdev portion of the game is lacking though. Hopefully I will be able to help with that
There is also modification to the installation for design and function that need to be modified before a new board would be able to go live.

Resetting the forum would be quite a big problem because there are tons of graphics, guides and game design discussions that haven't been posted anywhere else.

You might have heard a certain rumor about me. This rumor is completely false. You might also have heard the other rumor about me. This rumor is 100% accurate.

There are four main reasons that are holding the switch:dabe wrote:I'm a little confused about why it's such a big deal to convert from phpbb2 to 3.

1) We're waiting for a shared account activation to host the forum, since the current one is only accessible by a couple of developers.
2) We'd like to port our skin before activating phpBB3.
3) We have no rush, since the current forum is pretty functional.
4) Noone is willing/has got time to do it.
I'd love to, but for the reason 1 explained above, it's a bit hard for me.GravyTrain wrote:Is someone going to change the borders for the topics?
