RavenNuke 2.40.01 - Theme Fixed Width

When I installed phpBB 3.0.10, the theme width was 100%. I simply went into styles/prosilver/theme/common.css, and set the theme to a fixed width of my choose.

I notice Tricked Out News theme width was 100%, until recently changed to a fixed width.

How can I change RavenNuke 2.40.01 theme to a fixed width?

Thanks.

The easiest way is to add a container div with a set width just after the opening <body> tag and close it before the closing </body> tag. You would have to make sure there are no set widths in the body of the theme other than 100% or dealing with side blocks.

Which file should I make these changes to?

The themes theme.php should be where you want to look. It really depends on how the theme was written. I will give you an example for the RavenIce theme. In theme.php in function themeheader() you will find

Code:




echo '<body>';

Change that to something like this

Code:

echo '<body><div style="width:970px; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;">';

That will give you a fixed width of 970 and center the content by using the margins set to auto. You will need to close that div in the function themefooter() after the last closing div.

Bobby, could you re-wright this for me, if time allows.

The default theme for my site is: Fisubice

Line 72 reads: echo '<body bgcolor="#FFFFFF" text="#516A88" style="margin: 10px">';

Thanks.

Code:

echo '<body bgcolor="#FFFFFF" text="#516A88" style="margin: 10px"><div style="width:980px; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;">';

And on line 144 add an extra </div> like this

Code:

echo '</div></div></div>'."\n";

I replaced line 72 with: echo '<body><div style="width:970px; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;">'; It all looks good. It's what I was looking for.

What about the old settings that was removed.

'<body bgcolor="#FFFFFF" text="#516A88"
and
"You will need to close that div in the function themefooter() after the last closing div."

Without the underlines above, everything appear just fine with just replacing line 72 with the code you provided. I only changed the width in your code.

Will I find problems later?
Why do the theme look the same, except the new fixed width?
Do I still need to close the div?
Is the div already closed by the chosen theme?

Thanks again.

I had a shortlinks bug in the quick reply. Should be fixed now. What I posted above should work fine for you. You have to close that open div or you will have display issues.

Line 72 now reads: echo '<body bgcolor="#FFFFFF" text="#516A88" style="margin: 0px"><div style="width:984px; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;">';

Thank you.

I still need to close. It seems that my line 144 is not the same as your line 144.

Code:

126 function themefooter() {


127    global  $foot1, $foot2, $foot3, $copyright, $totaltime, $footer_message;


128    if (defined('INDEX_FILE') && INDEX_FILE===true) {


129        $tmpl_file = 'themes/fisubice/center_right.html';


130        $thefile = implode('', file($tmpl_file));


131        $thefile = addslashes($thefile);


132        $thefile = '$r_file="'."$thefile".'";';


133        eval($thefile);


134        print $r_file;


135        blocks('right');


136    }


137


138    echo '</td></tr></table><table width="100%"><tr><td>&nbsp;</td></tr></table>';


139    echo '<center>'."\n";


140    echo LGL_MENU_HTML; // Added by montego to "showcase" the use of the new Legal Module


141    echo '<div class="small">';


142    $footer_message = footmsg();


143    echo '</div>';


144    echo '</center>'."\n";

P.S. Received shortlinks bug again.

Than put the closing div after the </center> tag

These are original unchanged codes.
Theme Name: fisubice
File Name: theme.php

Code:

RavenNuke 2.50.00


73   echo '<body bgcolor="#FFFFFF" text="#516A88" style="margin: 10px">';





RavenNuke 2.40.01


72   echo '<body bgcolor="#FFFFFF" text="#516A88" style="margin: 10px">';





RavenNuke 2.50.00


139   echo '</td></tr></table><table width="100%"><tr><td>&nbsp;</td></tr></table>';


140   echo '<div class="text-center">'."\n";


141   echo LGL_MENU_HTML; // Added by montego to "showcase" the use of the new Legal Module


142   echo '<div class="small">';


143   $footer_message = footmsg();


144   echo '</div>';


145   echo '</div></div>'."\n";





RavenNuke 2.40.01


138    echo '</td></tr></table><table width="100%"><tr><td>&nbsp;</td></tr></table>';


139    echo '<center>'."\n";


140    echo LGL_MENU_HTML; // Added by montego to "showcase" the use of the new Legal Module


141    echo '<div class="small">';


142    $footer_message = footmsg();


143    echo '</div>';


144    echo '</center>'."\n";

Bobby, you posted above how to write the closing div for 2.40.01, but I am stumped because 2.50.00 is somewhat different. Most of the codes between the two are the same, but where the closing div goes is not.

Please re-write the entire line 145 with the closing div for RavevNuke 2.50.00.

Thank you.
