Dhari
i just downloaded it and set it up and i think it might work well for me so i am going to look around about switching header image and such.
any thoughts would be appreciated.
-
when i was using the curve theme i followed this thread,
http://www.simplemachines.org/community/index.php?topic=463858.msg3238949#msg3238949
and was able to remove the "hello" and search stuff. I assume much of that code will be same here ?
If I could swap out everything above buttons and put my own image across I think this theme would work well.
I am looking into the png files now at graphics.
also am i correct in looking for a mainblock.png ? i dont see it in image/theme
-
wanting something like this on top. being able to just simply swap images in and out of logo and rectangle box area.

Do you know , you don't need to modify upper header code to do what you need, you just need to do following :
1. Disable quick login box
Admin --> Configuration --> Features and Layout --> Untick --> HelpShow a quick login on every page
2. While dhari is your default theme, goto :
Admin --> Configuration --> Current Theme --> Logo Image url
There provide full url to image you want to show in header.
DONE !
So, if you have modified files, try uploading fresh files and try above and let me know if helped you :)
-
thank you very much for your input, im gonna mess around with it a little and see if i get it working.
-
ok sweet i am getting somewhere. Thanks again,
btw on top of dharia in that header area it has the horizontal grey stripes is there a way to turn that off so its only white ?
my site isnt open im just trying to get used to using this stuff.

In index.css of Dhari ie. under Themes/dhari/css/
Find : #header {
background: url("../images/theme/wrapper-bg.png") repeat-y scroll 0 0 transparent;
padding-left: 30px;
}
Replace with :
#header {
padding-left: 30px;
}

Thanks a bunch Ricky that worked perfect.
I am posting the code near and around it incase anyone else looks to do this or I have to do it again.
/* Styles for the general looks for the Curve theme.
------------------------------------------------------- */
/* the framing graphics */
#header
{
background: url(../images/theme/wrapper-bg.png) repeat-y scroll 0 0 transparent;
padding-left: 30px;
}
#header div.frame
{
display: block;
padding: 5px 30px 1em 0;
}

The last major thing I need to do is mess with buttons. I need to take down "help" and "search" in button menu and put in one or two buttons that will link elsewhere.
I looked on SMF forums but due to this theme I figured I would ask here first. I see some mods for buttons and didnt know if I should try that route or try it in the code. Any input would be much appreciated I am trying to have this up in about 30 days lol.
-
Its in Sources/Subs.php , more information is given on
http://wiki.simplemachines.org/smf/How_do_I_add_buttons_to_SMF_2.0

ok thanks, I had seen that thread on their forum and was not sure it applied to this theme.
I am not able to locate that file. Did not know if your getting to it through (admin - current theme - theme setings) or like with ftp. I considered the Menu lite mod, perhaps id that made it easy on myself lol
-
No problem, in the end of the day, problem must be solved. Though I was talking about editing through FTP :)
-
ok Good I at least found it with ftp, I am going to check that section of code out.
I get nervous dealing in code but I am going to give it a go and see what happens :)
I have simple portal installed btw, is this the section of code you posted above but with simple portal code ?
found it in source/subs.php
$buttons = array(
'home' => array(
'title' => $txt['home'],
'href' => $modSettings['sp_portal_mode'] == 3 && empty($context['disable_sp']) ? $modSettings['sp_standalone_url'] : $scripturl,
'show' => true,
'sub_buttons' => array(
),
'is_last' => $context['right_to_left'],
),
'forum' => array(
'title' => empty($txt['sp-forum']) ? 'Forum' : $txt['sp-forum'],
'href' => $scripturl . ($modSettings['sp_portal_mode'] == 1 && empty($context['disable_sp']) ? '?action=forum' : ''),
'show' => in_array($modSettings['sp_portal_mode'], array(1, 3)) && empty($context['disable_sp']),
'sub_buttons' => array(
),
),
'help' => array(
'title' => $txt['help'],
'href' => $scripturl . '?action=help',
'show' => true,
'sub_buttons' => array(
),
),
'search' => array(
'title' => $txt['search'],
'href' => $scripturl . '?action=search',
'show' => $context['allow_search'],
'sub_buttons' => array(
),
-
ok I deleted these and it got rid of the buttons. Will look into putting 2 new ones in now and see how that goes.
