Invision Community 5: A video walkthrough creating a custom theme and homepage By Matt Thursday at 04:02 PM
fantasystar Posted April 25, 2021 Posted April 25, 2021 Hi, Is it possible to add a Slider Image only for mobile viewing different to the Desktop/laptop. As currently I have the Slider Height set to custom, and when its on custom the slider image is not shown on the mobile. It is only when I set the Slider Height to Full Screen does the Slider Image appear on the Mobile Browsing. However, I am finding it hard to have 1 image that is suitable for both desktop and mobile viewing, so if its possibly to add a separate Slider image for mobile that will be great. As then, I can set a separate image that is better for Portrait mobile browsing and also a different wider image for the desktop/laptop. Â Thanks

What should I do? https://i.imgur.com/ZYNu5zN.png You mean you have updated IPS to 4.6.2 and now you are trying to install this theme ? If yes @TAMANÂ has not updated to be compatible for IPS 4.6, so you have to wait a few days more because he is working on that as I saw he uploaded two of his theme to be working fine with IPS 4.6. darth12 1
Afrodude Posted June 24, 2021 Posted June 24, 2021 @darth12Â you can finish upgrading to IPS 4.6.2 but you will have to wait for theme. You might see some breaks there and there, but it's not a big deal. Moreover, you can use the IPS default theme until @TAMANÂ release the new template update for this theme. darth12 1
darth12 Posted June 28, 2021 Posted June 28, 2021 @TAMANdo you know when there will be an update to this for 4.6.2?

Hi, This theme is compatible with latest ips version if you have already installed it.  although there is a big update coming soon for this theme with many new changes but it is not to support latest ips version! you should not have any compatibly issues, you can ignore the ips warning in acp because its never accurate. Edited June 29, 2021 by TAMAN

There are few mandatory template changes from 4.5 to 4.6

There are few mandatory template changes from 4.5 to 4.6 yes im aware of the globalTemplate change i also have modified one more template in this theme which is navbar im mostly concerned about these two templates in every ips update but in every ips update users are warned about incompatible themes due to modified templates i know its not possible to know if a modified template is compatible or not during ips updates but isn't it wrong to just mark them as incompatible! tho i know about the changes in ips 4.6.x and im not saying that i dont update this theme 😅 Edited June 29, 2021 by TAMAN
Wulfery Posted June 29, 2021 Posted June 29, 2021 Hi, It is not possibile to install your theme right now on new forums. I can't find your theme on the marketplace and there is no other way to upload this Theme to forum. Will this be fixed somehow soon? Thanks for response in advance!

Dknelson Posted June 30, 2021 Posted June 30, 2021 I was delaying updating to the latest Invision software but after reading this thread, I ignored the warning and did the update. Â Everything seems to be fine. Â Thank you Taman for your responses. FZ and TAMAN 1 1
FZ Posted July 5, 2021 Posted July 5, 2021 I had some issues the last time I upgraded IPS before the theme update came out so I think I will wait until everything is hunky dory before going ahead. Now if somebody could reiterate to IPS that this infernal system update message that appears every day is seriously annoying..... TAMAN 1

I remember you mentioned something about slider specific settings for mobile. Keep up the good work. Thanks

Another question what else new features you are going to add ? not so much stuff but the same setting from the screenshot above used for custom google fonts. you can add a google font name and then apply on specific places like navigation, titles footer... again for the footer if you have pages app you can add any of the default blocks in footer like recent topics gallery feed... you also dont need to install any templates any more. all the default ips styles will work just perfect there is also a setting added to import export theme colors. you can simply edit your theme colors and then make a copy of it or importing it in another theme 🙂 the messy and complicated palette 5 color schemes has also been deleted. there is now only a dark mode with one color scheme and you can easily customize the codes with color import/exporter without touching any color codes manually.  swiper slider is also deleted in the theme. it will be a free app in ips marketplace to use also everything has either been deleted or renamed including templates in this update so a complete reinstall of the theme is a must. and its not a problem because you have the theme color importer 😉 Edited July 28, 2021 by TAMAN
