After upgrade style dose not look correct!

[xrayhead]

Ok I upgraded from 3.0 to 3.5.3 and then upgraded my CMPS as well.

All seems to work apart from a couple of old modules I had to disable but I am getting a different colour on some of the blocks now and it looks naf!

"See the grey bits in the second image" :confused:

Admin CP => Style Manager => {select style} => All Style Options

Go there, scroll down to your Table Header class, and change the color there to what it's supposed to be.

Ok that’s cool, but if I do, it mess's up the rest of the forum! Is there some change with the news, welcome, Polls, online user's blocks in the updated version of CMPS? I want to keep the style the same on the forum home and change the blocks on the CMPS if possible??

I've looked at my running/live site and the CMPS is diferent to the forum Table Header class!!

Have a look at my live site http://www.walkonzone.com, this is still at 3.0.3
I am running a dummy upgrade at the moment on a new server before I move the domain name (advised to anyone that wants to do this as you can deal with all the problems before you go live) :( .

Dose anyone here have the same problem as me or is this the norm??

Change it in the VbAdvanced templates. I personally swapped a few alts on mine.

I have a similar problem and am trying to correct the same sections. I have posted a thread here. What would be the "tcat" image is not carrying through to display at the top of the modules like I've seen at other portals. I know that I can change all of the colors, including the board's, but it looks more polished having the graphic display.

Ok I can live with this! I can have a go at that but not sure what and where to change. My PHP skills are somewhat 0%...:(
I have no problem with editing files in dream weaver and doing a little html. Hell I just upgraded a board from 3.0 to 3.5.3 with CMPS, VBAGallery, VBALinks, reviewpost and a bunch load more hacks....:)

Any help you can give me xxskullxx would be really cool indeed as this is now the only thing holding up my domain transfer to the new server.

I agree with you and I think it’s a real problem indeed if you look at my live site www.walkonzone.com it looks really nice. Once upgraded it takes that smoth look away from the home page!!!

Anyway if either of you could give me some help I would be very graetfull indeed as I am now stuck.

PS. Can you guy’s PM me a link to your sites so I can have a look-C ?

[Rakehel]

I will do so xray. I should alter my terminology too perhaps. It may be the "thead" gradient graphic that is meant to display there. I am a former Invision user still feeling my way around vBulletin. Either way, I feel that you will receive the correct answer as the support I have found here and at the other vB company and related forums has been superior to what I had before.

Ok Think I have found the correct one's now (see bellow)

adv_portal_newsbits
adv_portal_welcomeblock
adv_portal_poll
adv_portal_onlineusers

Now do I change them to get the (Table Header class) look that I want?
And if yes where do I change them ( I have added the "onlineusers" for an example as its the smallest one) but I really want to get the news and welcomeblock sorted in the long run.

Xray


<tr>
<td class="thead"><span class="smallfont"><phrase 1="$numberregistered" 2="$numberguest">$vbphrase[x_members_and_y_guests]</phrase></span></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td class="$altbgclass"><span class="smallfont">$activeusers</span></td>
</tr>

<tr>
<td class="$bgclass"><span class="smallfont"><phrase 1="$recordusers" 2="$recorddate" 3="$recordtime">$vbphrase[most_users_ever_online_was_x_y_at_z]</phrase></span></td>
</tr>

Ok I have sorted this out now and it looks sweet...... :)

I have an edit for all the templates. I wont post it here unless Brian give's me the ok!!

Templates I changed are as follows.

adv_portal_onlineusers
adv_portal_welcomeblock
adv_portal_newsbits
adv_portal_poll
adv_portal_news_archive_head

Only took me 2 hours to suss it out! Wish I had some time to get to grips with PHP/HTML :(

Xray

If anyone wants the install drop by my site and pm admin!!

there is a problem. i did the upgrade today from 2.0 RC2 to 2.1.0.

the background gradient image's base URL is no longer correct for the CMPS modules.

before the update, CMPS expected the base URL to be:

www.domain.com/forums/images/gradients/

after the update, CMPS expected the base URL to be: www.domain.com/images/gradients/

it dropped the /forums directory. not sure why.

where is the one place that i can make this global change? it seems overkill to have to edit the template for each module to fix this problem.

I don't see how upgrading would affect those. To get those images to show up you need to edit your CSS through the Style Manager and change the background URL for each of your CSS classes to the full URL to that image.

I just upgraded and was having the exact same issue as above. This fixed it. Thanks!

Well I changed the templates to get around mine and now the front page looks really nice..

[trana]

I had the same issue. Maybe the older version of VB was able to handle the paths better and now it is stricter? I had to update almost all of my image locations and use a relative path in order to get my style back to normal.

To get those images to show up you need to edit your CSS through the Style Manager and change the background URL for each of your CSS classes to the full URL to that image.I had just barely noticed this on my board. I had already updated my image paths, but not the link to the images for thead and such.

Works good now.
