Craig,

On phpBB if you go on to the admin panel>Styles>Management then edit the SubSilver theme and you will be able to edit the hex colours that the style sheet uses.

the blue that you use for the background of the main Flump logo at the top left would look nice.

Ok..

I've edited theme_info.cfg and the subsilver.css file and changed the refs. of that god awful orange to the blue at the top. However, I think I have missed a file?

As its not changed. Any ideas?

Craig.

hmmm, it should have done.

Instead of editing the files try changing it via the admin control panel.

Jay

Craig

It's correct in the control panel too.

Must be another file somewhere.

Craig.

jaylam

to be honest that should have changed it because as soon as you alter anything on the style via the control panel it changes the values in the subSilver.css file.

I think this may be one to post on the phpBB web site.

Jay

Craig

Fixed :)

Abit better isnt it!

The theme is actually stored in the mySQL database too, so had to change it there too.

Weird, makes you wonder why they bother having the static files too.

Well im sitting here having a look see m8

& looking fine from here craig.

jaylam

that is really wierd because once you changed it via the control panel it should have done all that, anyway the colour looks much better now m8.

Not today though, had enough of phpbb for one day! :)
