Just to be clear...

Post by fred8615 »

...Styles written for 3.0.x won't work in 3.2.x?

I'm the webmaster for the local astronomy club (http://www.brastro.org/), and we just recently updated our forum from 3.0.x to 3.2.3. I had installed three space related styles on the old forum, but I note in the styles db here they're not listed as compatible with 3.2.x, so I wanted to ask before I tried reinstalling them.

The style must be designed for your phpBB version. Styles for 3.0 will not work with 3.2

That is indeed a disadvantage of updates.
Different beautiful styles disappear because the designer no longer wants to keep up with the updates
Sorry English is not my native language :oops:

When new theme comes, it may get (at least seems to be) easier to update/maintain styles. But at the moment the best thing to do, is to develop a style based on prosilver yourself/someone else who knows what to do or request a style.
