« on: October 19, 2002, 06:45:42 AM »		 Reply with quote
ID: External CSS Mod

Mod Version: 1.1
For YSE Version:
• YaBB SE v1.5.1 RC1 B38
• YaBB SE v1.5.1 RC1 B40
• YaBB SE v1.4.1

Mod Info:
External CSS file will save your bandwidth, not much, but will be very usefull if u have a crowded/popular forum. This mod puts an additional link in the admin section to edit "style.css" file.  This mod will also add an editor for your css file (ala template.php editor).

New in 1.1:
- changed the style of the iframe for "Live from www.yabbse.org..." into using the same css

Look at the readme file for changing the style tag to an external css style tag.

::Download mod file::
use with BoardMod for faster edit ;)

Instructions:
To install this mod and change your style tag to an external css style tag:
- open your forum template
- search for <style>
- cut/copy everything -inside- the tag (do NOT include the <style> and </style> tags)
- paste the lines into a new file in your computer, and save that file as "style.css"
- delete everything inside <style></style> tags in template file, including the tags
- add this code in your template file: <link rel=stylesheet type="text/css" href="style.css" /> inside <head> tag
- upload your style.css & template.php/html
- CHMOD 666 style.css
- run the .mod file, and upload the changed files (english.lng & Admin.php)

feel free to make this into YaBBPak compatible

I think, either your server is down, or the URL is wrong. How long will it take to get it back up? I need this mod. :)

Updated to 1.1
  • changed the style of the iframe for "Live from www.yabbse.org..." into using the same css

    Why?
    because the <iframe> is using hard coded color codes; therefore, if u're using black/dark background, it will be hard to see the YaBBInfo news ;)

I've been converting my board so that it just uses CSS for all aspects of the layout. Unfortunately it probably won't be possible to make a mod out of it as it changes every file. It does help with load times though as it doesn't need to include the $windowbg, etc variables.

Well they can still read things without any troubles. It may not look as pretty but it makes it look nicer for those of us who do have the newer browsers and its also easier for me to tweak the layout.

I have it working on 1.5.1 - but the only issue that I have noticed is if I go into the Gallery, the font type (of the gallery)changes to Times Roman :( and doesnt reset until I go back to the board index.

Spiff will you be working on integrating the Gallery into an external file too?

if u have the gallery mod installed, put the full path in your forum template for the css file
example: <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="http://www.yabbse.org/community/yabbse.css" />

Thanks for getting back to me :)

My Gallery CSS is in the gallery root - not the community root - does that matter?

so it would be:
Code Select

<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="http://www.yabbse.org/community/Gallery/style.css" />


and not

Code Select

<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="http://www.yabbse.org/community/style.css" />


Or am I misunderstanding?

Thanks again
