Maxx 2012: The Most Advanced Skin.

[MTsymbal]

Thanks Legeam. For now I'm trying to get myself used to Gallery and IP Content. I actually do want the 3 columns for IP Content, I'm going to try one of those premade portals. I greatly appreciate your help and suggestions.

Ajouz,

I did however notice a problem with IP Gallery when using the Maxx Dark skin, I'm seeing red X's... I think it's missing images...



Also, I found a problem with IP Chat and made the following CSS alterations which made it look way better. The problem was that the second person had a white border and you had a very hard time reading chat messages.

IP Chat modifications made to "ipchat.css"

---------------------------------------

#chat-form {

border: 1px solid #151616;

border-bottom-width: 4px;

padding: 4px;

background: #000000;

position: relative;

--------------------------------------

.chat-message {

background-color: #1C1C1C ;

--------------------------------------

.chat-myown {

background-color: #000000;

}

-------------------------------------

.chat-notice {

background-color: #8b0000;

}

------------------------------------

.chat-moderator {

background-color: #5a5a5a;

-------------------------------------

ul.kickmenu {

background-color: #f7f9fb;

border: 1px solid #8b0000;

margin-top: 0px;

width: 170px;

float: right;

z-index: 10000;

-webkit-box-shadow: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.3) 0px 6px 6px;

box-shadow: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.3) 0px 6px 6px;

--------------------------------------

ul.kickmenu a:hover {

background: #8b0000;

---------------------------------------

#emoticons_custom_menu_menucontent {

border: 1px solid #000000;

height: 400px;

width: 200px;

overflow: auto;

----------------------------------------

.chat-private-message {

background-color: #000000;

border: 1px solid #d5dde5;

padding: 4px;

}

Finally, do you think you could please tell me how to change this color? So I can match my website instead?

[MTsymbal]

Ok I figured out how to change the color for when you hover over a menu item in the sub menu. Below is the code that I altered.

To change the color for the hover over tab on the drop menu

Open up CSS, " ipb_styles.css "

#more_apps_menucontent li:hover, .submenu_container li:hover {

background-color: #E81010 !important; }

#more_apps_menucontent li:hover a, .submenu_container li:hover a {

color: #fff !important; text-shadow: none !important; }

Instead of the white, I wanted it in red so it would match my skin. Thankfully, I figured it out.

Ajouz, that's okay. I did manage to figure out how to change the CSS for the drop menu and imported images for the gallery so I'm okay there.

Nothing to do with the skin at all, I just have to say when it comes IP Gallery I'm personally not a fan of how the stripless.png and end of line arrows appear... it's ugly. Would be nice if there was a way to change the way it is displayed. I feel that the arrows alone are enough. Is there a way I could remove the programming for stripless.png and the end of line arrows? I searched and could not find.

Thanks again for all your help!

[Ajouz ♞]

can you please post a screenshot to understand exactly what you want to remove ?
best regards

[MTsymbal]

Thanks Ajouz, if this is possible then that would be great. If not, I guess I will just try changing the pictures to something else.




Also, I can't seem to find how to change the CSS for Gallery. If you can point me in the right direction or help with this, I would greatly appreciate it...

[MTsymbal]

I was also wondering if you could help me with this... I've been trying to scale down an image I would like to use for "t_unread.png" and "t_read.png" However, it won't work so I'm wondering if I could make so the picture is within the grid / box? Again, thank you for all your help.

Hi,

I would like to change the background colour only on the posts in my forum to white and the text colour to black but can't seem to find exactly what to modify in the CSS file in order to achieve that. Could you give me a hand?

The forum is this one: http://www.footballmanagerstory.com/forum/

Thanks.

Thanks.

you need to modify all the skin to do this , skin based in dark colors and this will effect all the board not only the post area .

did you tried this

<!--:::: regarding old  IE browsers :::-->

<!--[if lt IE 9]>


<style type="text/css">

.col_c_icon {

min-width:50px;

width:50px ;

}


</style>


<![endif]-->

<!--:::: end regarding old  IE browsers :::-->

you may need to adjust the value to be same width like your image width

Would you be able to do it? If yes, I'm willing to provide compensation for your time.

[MTsymbal]

Ajouz, thank you but I tried this code below and it did not work. It instead modified the primary (inital) screen when you first visit the forum.

[color="#880000"]<!--:::: regarding old IE browsers :::-->[/color]

[color="#880000"]<!--[if lt IE 9]>

<style type="text/css">

.col_c_icon {

min-width:50px;

width:50px ;

}

</style>

<![endif]-->[/color]

[color="#880000"]<!--:::: end regarding old IE browsers :::-->[/color]

Please let me know if we could modify/adjust after selecting a topic / category.

Thanks again for all your help

It would seem that the default IP.Content blocks that come default with IPB has an error with this plug/block was missing with the gallery image. Now this was on a page by itself without anything else.

Ticket:

For some reason my image slider that was made default from the IP.Content template is not functioning anymore. The test page I made with the slider on it is on it own page for testing purposes and not sure what else to do to fix it.




The main default template is what I'm using.

Hello,

The page is showing a Javascript error indicating that it cannot find the GallerySlider Javascript. Have you made any recent changes to the site, such as adding new IP.Content blocks, adding new 3rd-party hooks, or changing any system files?

We may need to re-upload the IP.Content files but this will overwrite any manual changes you have made to them. Please let me know if you are happy for us to do this.

Many thanks,
Alan.

I added blocks there were feed blocks that was it. I added a skin block as well…the only other block that was added was the “ maxx_articles_slider_integration” under the other blocks area. Can you see if this was the cause of the problem?

Hello,

I am not familiar with that add-on / block but there is a good chance that it would conflict with the default IP.Gallery slider block.

The easiest way to test this would be to remove that block and check the IP.Gallery slider again. Unfortunately you are unable to disable blocks without fully removing them so please ensure you make a backup of the block, or have the original download available before removing it.

Many thanks,
Alan.

Hi, a few questions.

1) How do I remove the banner with the "Ask an Expert" banner at the top?

2) Would it work if I just upload more backgrounds and name them Custom5, Custom6 etc?

3) My message bar in the Shoutbox is a really strange solid green. I have my message in green because I can only use that one color for all my skins, and it is readable with all of my backgrounds. But on Maxx it forces there to be that solid green background for the text. Is there a way to change that background color in the shoutbox block without affecting my other skins?

I don't think this skin is really what I wanted, but I was impressed by how much detail you put into it, so I guess I'll buy your Nacht skin and see how that goes.

this is in the template called sub header , if you want to remove it just delete this template contents




2) Would it work if I just upload more backgrounds and name them Custom5, Custom6 etc?
here is a tutorial

sorry I did not understand what you mean until I saw your post in shoutbox topic
for shoutbox try add this to any css file

div#shoutbox-announcement-text.message span {

color:#fff !important ;

}

change #fff to a suitable COLOR FOR YOU

[Eric Allione]

Great, thank you. After removing the extra features and taking care of this, the Maxx skin is working well for me.

It's the Nacht skin that's giving me problems now since I'm having trouble setting a default texture, but this one's looking great now. I'm not worried about the Nacht one though since it's similar enough. I'll just keep the Maxx visible.

Overall, great skin! It just was overwhelming at first with all the features.
