When I upload the Black and Gold style from the Style download area I get this:

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected ',' in /home/hotsauce/public_html/forum/ubbthreads-7-5-5/styles/6.php on line 11

Do I need to unzip the file and upload a specific file from the folder? Sorry I know this has most likely been ask before but I did a search and found nothing.

Yes, you'll need to unzip the file locally and then use the import tool in the styles section to import the actual style file, and then upload the images in the zip as directed in the readme.

OK, it worked up until the point where I made it the default template but the images are not there not quite sure where they go...

the wrapper is still not fixed.. i posted about this quite awhile ago @ ubbskins..

:2c:

Thanks SD....I cannot get any style to work. I guess mainly cause I don't understand it....Use to SMF and IPB one click install and all that. I cannot even make the skin that this forum uses work...scratching head??

i wrote a tutorial on howto import a style with images involved..

Linky Poo

might help you a bit..

Well I can see this is going to be frustrating....

well, if you need help (would take 5mins).. just PM me.. i'd need temporary axx to your board..

if that tutorial i posted ain't gonna cut it, then it would be easier that way

SD not that the tutorial isn't any good its great! I just am a complete idiot when it comes to FTP cause I can never get it to work....PM's sent! I sent two, forgot to put the link in the first one.......

no probs

If you have issues with uploading files then that could be a issue with installing skins.
I myself never had a problem with using the black and gold skin. Nor the default skin used here.

It just may take a little hand holding on the first try.
Once you do one it is easy peasy after that.

Yeah I guess it will. Just going to take me getting use to this software is all. I imagine after I play with it for awhile I will get the hang of it.

Just bark back with questions.
just be prepared to answer your question with details.
Which everyone here will ask.

SD already offered the easy way out.

Not being familiar with this software is a disadvantage. SD offered to install the style and I greatly appreciate his help. I will try not to ask to many questions seems to be bothering people?

No bother. Just some think it is a simple issue to resolve. So they forget that they were a newbie at one point in time.
So ask away.

Oh I know I be a newbie...I never realized how much difference there was in forum software. UBB is a totally different animal thats sure but I am totally satisfied with my decision to purchase it....

Good for you.
So please continue to ask for help.
Somebody will assist.

Thanks..........

SD what file do you need to edit to fix this in chrome?

it is i bug in all browsers, just that some don't make it look like one..

http://www.ubbskins.com/forum/ubbthreads.php/topics/11/Black_and_Gold_Known_Issues.html#Post11 is where i posted the fix..

Yeah but I can't find which file to make the fix in

that would be the wrapper

My local copy and re-import it?

This line?

no.. if you look @ the style editor, you will see 2 tabs.. there is a wrapper tab, where you can edit each wrapper's open / close code..

so just edit there and save from admin control panel and voila

Hmmm...
Last line of Open

First line of close after edit


and it still is messed up in Chrome... I even updated the style...

well, you're right -- chrome hates it for some reason.. chrome is prolly the most standards compliant, so that is prolly indicating still something wrong..

i'd need to be re-admin'd (temp) to look see

For what it's worth it does appear to be loading fine in other browsers. Chrome has the same issues with black and gold here. The current styling mechanism isn't as flexible due to the way it's setup so leads to some strange issues in both chrome and sometimes IE.

well, the wrapper should deffo be at least cleaned up.. it 'works' in other browsers, but that's just luck, imho..

even fixing the error in the wrapper, there is still:

the <img tags don't have the ending slash /> for example

Hi
Where can I download the black and gold style ? I didn't find it here in this thread. I think this should be the style, you can choose for this page (black_and_gold_(hi_res).

Thanks
Matthias
