UBB.threads Style Packs
Within the Member Area downloads is a section listing for Style Packs. The current version Style Package is already included within the main UBB.threads zip archive. The styles are located within the install/styles/ directory.

Stock Style Packages for the previous UBB.threads series are released independently of the main archive for a few reasons;

These Style Packages can be updated with any layout fixes more often and in between the main UBB.threads forum software updates.

They are also available independently from the main forum software with the intention of being useful to forum owners running outdated UBB.threads forums, such as 7.0x through 7.6x. Ideally, we'd like older forums to update to the latest version, but we know that you're staying on that version for your own reasons. These Style Packs are compatible with UBB.threads 7.0 series through to the current 7.7 series. There have been zero adjustments made to them to account for the 7.5 series template bugs (which have since been corrected in 7.6.0). We want your 7.5.x forum to look modern. So at no extra cost, here they are for you. thumbsup

Notes:
If you are currently using a stock style from your original UBB.threads 7.5 series or older install, it is highly recommended that you update to the matching current style from within the Member Area downloads section, or the most recent UBB.threads archive.

How-To Import A Style
You can easily import these new Styles the same way you've always been able to import styles:
1. Go to Control Panel > Styles
2. Click the "Import Style" bottom tab.
3. Click "Browse" button and navigate to the directory on your local computer where you unzipped the downloaded files to (ex. from the "style-xxSTYLENAMExx-20190105.zip" archive). and select the style.txt file you want to import.
4. Once your chosen style has been imported, you'll be at the "Edit or Add a Style" page. Confirm that Images within "Name, Images & Wrapper" is set to "default". Click the "Update or Add Style" button at the bottom.

Your newly imported style is now ready to be used by your users. Repeat this for each of the other new/updated styles you want to use.

From the Styles list page, now you can mark your older stock styles inactive, or delete them if you choose. Don't forget to set a default style for your forums.


What About The Images?
The General Images are part of the stock forum software and were installed when you originally installed your main UBB.threads php forum software. They are also included within this package so forum owners with expired licenses can also benefit from the updated stock styles of recent UBB.threads software versions.

IMAGES INCLUDED WITH EACH PACKAGE:
  • /images/general/.../*.gif (General Images)


The images within each archive can be installed by copying their directory structure right in to your forum software directory structure.

example:
images/general/custom/.. => forums/images/general/custom/..
images/general/default/.. => forums/images/general/default/..
images/general/ubb/.. => forums/images/general/ubb/..

The newly added Image packs will be available to you within the Style Editor under the General Images selector.

Hi Isaac,

Feedback
Thanks for the styles pack update. In previous updatesI have followed your instructions to the book and only used the default images settings for all
UBBT-70, UBBT-75, UBBT-76, and UBBT-77 styles.
This time I chose to use
UBBT-70 > Default
UBBT-75 > UBB
UBBT-76 > Ventura
UBBT-77 > Ventura and the default dark options where it applies for the Dark skin
it works better for me than the default for all.

Thanks for the excellent service you guys provide.
