Our new Image Scanner and Discoverability AI keeps your community safe (Video) By Jordan Miller August 26 22
broni Posted July 17, 2011 Share Posted July 17, 2011 It looks like someone threw all items at random. We have 4 bars now (indicated above 1-4) Each bar has a different color. Why two searches? On a top of it they look totally different. Why the 1st search has a search button with "search logo" and the other has a search button with word "Search"? What was the reason to create bar #4 just for 3 links? #4 is a bar, not a part of categories, so why it's not same width as a header instead of being lined up with categories? Why it doesn't have a header like color instead of categories color? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryan H. Posted July 17, 2011 Share Posted July 17, 2011 #4 is an on-site customization to make it easier for people to find [and search] the IPS client area, resources and documentation. It is not a part of IP.Board itself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
broni Posted July 17, 2011 Author Share Posted July 17, 2011 I understand that, but I still think it should be lined up with a header. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Christian Posted July 17, 2011 Share Posted July 17, 2011 I understand that, but I still think it should be lined up with a header. I don't understand how you think it'd look better in any other way? it's aligned with all of the other content inside the forum? If it wasn't it would be the only bit of content that isn't aligned and would stick out and look ridiculous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mikorist Posted July 17, 2011 Share Posted July 17, 2011 if i go to IPB 3.2 i must pay $$ someone to make me 3.1.x look I have no other solution. This is the first version of IPB - I'll wait first skins - and then update Skinners will rub their hands with money Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MageLeif Posted July 18, 2011 Share Posted July 18, 2011 I agree that it looks messy, but it's useful on this site and won't be included in the default install so I'm not going to complain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
.Ian Posted July 18, 2011 Share Posted July 18, 2011 I think it looks okay - my only thought is that the two search boxes should not be beneath each other, as I can see some people using the wrong one - can they be combined even? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZakRhyno Posted July 18, 2011 Share Posted July 18, 2011 I sort of like it. I wish I know how to do it. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kickassdj Posted July 18, 2011 Share Posted July 18, 2011 I guess 2nd search is option, I like top search. + after checking out another post about new skin editing feature of IPB 3.2 , I think it will be intuitive to create new skin in 3.2.

Chito Posted July 18, 2011 Share Posted July 18, 2011 If it's just for these support forums, then it's fine, but if it was for the final 3.2 release, then yea, it would look a bit weird. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bfarber Posted July 18, 2011 Share Posted July 18, 2011 It's just a hook for our site to allow you easy access to the documentation. This isn't something that will affect any of our customers' sites. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
