    SOLVED I have a dumb question. joomla?

    Posted 13 years 5 months ago
    • I have a phpBB3 forum that has been running for 4 years now. I do not use Joomla. Will your phpBB3 styles work without it?

      I have joined your club.
      I have downloaded a couple of styles.
      I downloaded and installed ROKBB3.
      I have uploaded the styles to my forum.
      They appear under General>ROKBB3 module.
      I am using the TerranTribune and SolarSentinel styles.

      Having these problems:
      All slyes - When I click "Mark All" in my inbox, It does not mark anything and jumps to the top of the screen.

      SolarSentinel - Smilies will not post in message area. (works with TerranTribune) Does not seem to work for any style that the smilies are listed to the right of the message body, works when they are on the left.

      I tried installing your styles on another site I am building. The forum is fresh install (phpBB3- 3.0.9).
      Their the style switchers do not work and the side columns are not showing. (No members in that forum yet - Just a couple of test members)

      My site is huuuuuuge!!. I would like to go to a new look without rebuilding the complete site. Also I tried installing the styles on a freash phpbb3 install. I have more problems on that install than my old one.
      :cry: :oops: :shock: :P

    • The phpbb3 styles do not need Joomla to work.
      Sounds like you missed some setup steps in setting up the phpbb3 styles and rokbb3.
      Review the doc on the site again and be sure you have enabled the proper settings in phpbb3 to support the RT styles.

    • Perhaps I did the first time I installed on the new forum. My forum has been running for 4 years. The database was on 3.0.4 I decided it was time for a clean start so I installed a clean forum in another directory. Boy what a job. I would not recommend it for anyone unless they just want to start clean. I went slow and started moving tables a few at a time. Your styles work fine now. As it turns out there was something in the config table and the private message table that was breaking them. not sure what it was but I left the tables in the old forum and imported just what I needed to get everything working. All the post, topics users and their permissions. started over with private messages. I have been running for a couple of weeks now and no one has complained. Even the arcade works for most people. I installed 3.0.4 to start. Got everything working then upgraded to 3.0.9 after I had moved the minimum tables. Anyway the process was very slow so I will not go into anymore detail. I am running everything on version 3.0.9 now with version RC10 of the arcade mod. A couple of people have complained about the arcade not working for them but I think that must be a browser issue for them. All is well for me in all browsers I have tested. Perhaps this issue will go away when I update to the latest arcade. got one more update to go I am very close now. I think if these people new how to dump their browser cache the arcade would work for them. Heck, some of them do not even know what a browser is, when you try to tell them to dump the cache. :)
      Thanks for your response.
