| Re: [phpBB] Step-By-Step Instructions to creating a new template edit by CyberAlien:
link is temporary broken. here is short version of that manual (in follwing document use your template name instead of "YourTemplate"). i will remove it when link above will be working again:
1. Copy your templates/subSilver/ directory to templates/YourTemplate/ including all subdirectories.
2. In all .tpl files inside templates/YourTemplate/ replace all instances of "subSilver" with "YourTemplate". You can do that in any text editor with search/replace feature. Make sure that "YourTemplate" is exactly the same as your directory name. It is case-sensitive, so "YourTemplate" and "yourtemplate" are different names.
3. Rename subSilver.cfg and subSilver.css to YourTemplate.cfg and YourTemplate.css
4. Open theme_info.cfg and replace all "subSilver" with "YourTemplate" (including all $subSilver[0]... with $YourTemplate[0])
5. Save all modified files. You've got yourself a new template. Now you can install it in admin control panel (this document will help you) and edit colors in admin control panel and edit tpl files.
Notes:
1. New template name cannot contain any spaces or dashes in directory name - otherwise it will cause errors and won't install.
2. Template name is case-sensitive. Make sure that YourTemplate inside .tpl files and theme_info.cfg and in filenames of .cfg and .css files are exactly the same as directory name. |
