I am getting 500 internal server error. You need to look in your hosting logs or contact your hosting provider.


@ Gamingzoneforums
Can't see changes editing styles? Changes have disappeared?

[Gamingzoneforums]

ignore this double post

[Gamingzoneforums]

is there any way i can make the forum threads appear below the header and stretch out so its the same width .. and i cant see any of the white writing as the background has gone white for parts? Thanks a million so far lads

You have wrongly edited the files you have missed a closing div for site-description now the whole site is 70% and floated towards left.
I would suggest that you upload a new overall_header.html and again carefully follow the instructions to modify it.

Ok thanks i have reuploaded the whole style and done it again but when i click any of the links such as admin control panel to refresh the style it goes error 404 page not found :S

How do I keep the logo but remove the header? (I don't want any color in the header. Just transparent or not there at all.)

Open /styles/yourstyle/theme/colours.css and find:

Code: Select all

.headerbar {
    background-color: #12A3EB;
    background-image: url("{T_THEME_PATH}/images/bg_header.gif");
    color: #FFFFFF;
} 

Remove or comment out background-image: url("{T_THEME_PATH}/images/bg_header.gif"); and edit background-color: #12A3EB; to whatever colour you need.

Hmmm...thanks, Mixstar. Nothing happened when I tried that. But then I went into common.css and commented out

Code: Select all

background: #ebebeb none repeat-x 0 0;

and that worked.

I'm trying again. I had to redo everything including my amember .

I've only done the steps to change the header. But my header is a full length. Should I get rid of the search first? The forum is here: removed for privacy reasons

I'm trying to upload the same header I have here: http://teenbiztalk.com

http://sc2ztp.com/phpBB3/ it keeps on repeating. Also it repeats more the more i zoom out. Also the banner looks a little big

@lesadale
open common.css
find

Code: Select all

#wrap {
	padding: 0 20px;
	min-width: 650px;
}

replace it with

Code: Select all

#wrap {
	padding: 0 20px;
	min-width: 650px;
         width: 872px;
         margin: 0 auto;
}

and refresh your theme. also you need to get rid of site image.

Since your site is back up, it looks like you could do with a fixed width forum, if you take a look over some of the last few messages I've posted in this topic, you will find the instructions I've posted on creating a Fixed Width Forum (changing the width to your needs). Your image is 1024px wide x 256px high, so adjust my previously posted instructions to compensate for your image dimensions.

Trying to change colors, I messed things up and replaced all modified files with the original files. Now I cannot get me header to work again. I've followed all the tutorials, but cannot remember what I did to center my header. It is aligned right and not all of it is showing. Here is the link:

This is more than just a bump....

I've got my site looking almost exactly the way I want it. But there is one or two bugs that need to be ironed out and my header is one of them. The should look like this:

http://teenbiztalk.com

but it is pushed to the right and not all of the right side is visible. Like this:

removed for privacy reasons

Could someone please help me move it to the center?

If you need more information, please just ask and I'll see if I can get it.
