Title: Updates for the members here -- IMPORTANT
Post by: Fat Cat on February 25, 2005, 02:51:28 AM
I have decided that I would add an additiona template to the forum system. I know that a couple of the HRI members have voiced a dislike for the yellow background on the pages.

So in the spirit of friendship I have duplicated the color scheme off of the HRI site. So you can now view this site in the same scheme as the HRI.

If you go to the Profile option at the top of the page

(http://www.roddingroundtable.com/forums/files/profile_482.jpg)

On the next page you will see a number of options. For the HRI members most of this is new for you as we have a much more robust profile setup.

(http://www.roddingroundtable.com/forums/files/profile2_712.jpg)

From here you want to select the Profile tab. it will load another screen that looks like this

(http://www.roddingroundtable.com/forums/files/profile3_145.jpg)

You have the choice of filling out any or none of that information. Right at the moment we are really not worried about any of that. We are looking for the Profile Settings options on the left. Click that link and it will look almost like this.

(http://www.roddingroundtable.com/forums/files/profile4_115.jpg)

You will see on the right side a drop down box with the words to thr right of it that say Board Style and the default option is selected. Which is the RRT layout. Click the drop down like in the image and you will see an option for a HRI Layout. Select that option and press the submit button at the bottom.

After that it will take you to a page that will tell you your profile was updated but the layout will look like the RRT design. This is normal. From here reload the index page of the forum and you should have the familiar Blue layout you are used to from the HRI site.

I hope that this is clear. If not feel free to ask questions and I will jump in and answer them.

Final note. Please do not ask me to make a bunch of different layouts. Each one takes time to hand code all changes that need to be done when a update comes out. I have already doubled my work load just by adding another one. You will just have to decide which one you like more and use it.

I am not fixing it any further. I am not going to create a second set of rotator scripts just for that template. I have already spent more time on it that I want any way. I spent 4 hours on the header alone yesterday. I am done. If you aren't happy with what we have I can go back to just one and make myself happy as it will make my life easier.

Thanks Frank...but I kinda liked the baby poop colour. Probably something to do with looking at it for so long through my windscreen I guess. :wink: Luckily I've got a thick skin cause I would be terribly offeneded by all the negative comments :D Baby poop will be the next new trend...and then who will be king aye :)

Thanks from another of the "down under mob".It reinforces my opinion,that if an Aussie was to emigrate,the closest place on earth where we can still feel at home would be the USA ,and Carps ,where did you find the elixer of youth?............Frank.

Some of us have known that for many years, guess that's why we have so many visits under our belts already. :lol:

Quote... ,and Carps ,where did you find the elixer of youth?

I've always had it.  Like as I awoke on the 50th anniversary of my birth, the missus rolled over, looke me right in the eye and asked, "So is this the year?"

"What year?" I asked.

"The year you grow up and stop acting like a sixteen year old?"
.

History suggests the answer continues unchanged, "NUP!"
