View Full Version : Some issues with header after upgrade

I went from 3.6.8 to 3.7 tonight. Everything went well. There were two templates I had to revert, and I can't recall what they were, but I'm sure one of them was the header template.

For some reason, the forum is now showing an older gif file for the header logo, and it's pushed to the left instead of center.

I searched for the template with that info in it and don't remember how I did it. I used to have a gif file that had links in it to go to sections of my web site.

I looked for the index_header template, and it's not there!! :eek:

Looking in the header template and I can't see what I'm missing.

I don't mess with the forum that often, and it seems I've forgotten most of this stuff. Is there someone who can "refresh" my memory by pointing me in the right direction?

Everything else seems to be working fine. I hope I did not screw something up doing the upgrade............:(

THANKS

The title image location is set in your:

Admin CP -> Styles & Templates -> Style Manager -> StyleVars (in the menu) -> Title Image

This thread explains how to edit the header to center the image:

Thanks Jake for that FAST reply! I appreciate it.

One more thing (if you don't mind).

My header logo used to "float" above the body of the forum. What I mean is that it was centered in the upper area, so that it did not "touch" the forum section. Take a peek here:

See how the graphic "touches" the white forum border? It used to not. Is that a setting somewhere?

Thanks again

Also in the header template, try adding the red code:


<!-- logo -->
<a name="top"></a>
<table border="0" width="$stylevar[outertablewidth]" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" align="center">
<tr>
<td align="$stylevar[left]"><a href="$vboptions[forumhome].php$session[sessionurl_q]"><img src="$stylevar[titleimage]" border="0" alt="$vboptions[bbtitle]" /></a></td>
<td align="$stylevar[right]" id="header_right_cell">
<if condition="$ad_location['ad_header_logo']">$ad_location[ad_header_logo]<else />&nbsp;</if>
</td>
</tr>
</table>
<!-- /logo -->

<br />

<!-- content table -->
$spacer_open

$_phpinclude_output

$ad_location[ad_header_end]
