template changes from 3.6.3 to 3.6.5?

[JDuc]

It seems that since I've upgraded our forum, the nav bar and other bars look...well....flat?

I'm wondering if this was part of the upgrade or if this is indicative of something else?

Link?

it looks fine under the Kirsh style though.

[Steve Machol]

And what is supposed to be wrong exactly?

[JDuc]

the nav bar, it used to look more like the Kirsh style, now it and the thread tool bars look more 2D, before they had a bit of a 3D look to them, like the Kirsh style.

I don't know what to tell you. Still not sure what you mean. Try this. Create a new style and choose no parent style. This will force it to use the default templates. Then change to this style and view your forums with it. Do you have the same problem?

[JDuc]

I'm not sure I understand what you're saying...create a new style? If that's something that can be done without actually designing an entirely new style, then I might e able to do it, but if I have to actually go and create a new style, I don't know how to do that and don't quite have the time to mess with it.

Now I know it's not just me, within 5 minutes of making the upgrade, I had 4 different users complaining about the new look.

Admin CP -> Styles & Templates -> Style Manager -> Add New Style

[JDuc]

created a new style and it still looks the same.

Something changed in the template, but I don't know what or where to go to fix it.

More and more users are complaining about it now.

[Steve Machol]

What's the link to the new style? If you did this correctly then it will look exactly like it does here.

[JDuc]

same link as earlier (http://www.mp3car.com/vbulletin)

just change the template down at the bottom to "test"

[Steve Machol]

I don't see how that can be the original style and templates. You have cleartly changed something else.

Reupload the original vbulletin-style.xml file to the install directory. Then upload the tools.php script in the 'do_not_upload' folder of the vB zip file to your Admin CP directory and run it from your browser. Then reimport the vbulletin-style.xml file by running tools.php from your browser. Immediately remove tools.php when you are done.

thank you.

it went through the update and told me that nothing needed to be updated....

but all appears as it should now.
