    Editing an SMF templete.

    Posted 17 years 5 months ago
    • Hi,

      I am wondering how I edit an SMF template and then try it out?

      I use apps like LAMP and JSAS to see if my Joomla site templates are modified and work correctly before I upload.

      I host/admin quite a small and busy (for its size) SMF forum and its time for a change. What I don't want to do is edit the live site as I go as this would be unprofessional> Ideally I need the template with our logo ect ready just to change instantly with minimum fuss to members.

      Any help greatly appreciated.

    • Yeah I suppose. I was more hoping to get an answer here as its a rocket SMF template.

    • I used Ravenswood at one point to set up a server on my computer and test SMF...might be worth a shot to set that up and as you edit and save the images you can see how it looks.

      Do you have a link to the theme your are thinking of editing?

    • Hi Joe,

      I quite like the Sporticus one. demo.rockettheme.com/smf/

      All I would need to do really is upload our logo over where it says sporticus. The rest is fine as is.


      EDIT, actually make that versatility (light/green/green) That is by far my favorite.

    • how m8? i have no experience of editing.

      ive been thinking, i could upload the template during the middle of the night as most members are from the uk.

      if i knew what i was doing i could change it on the fly at this point.

      what u think?

    • Well first things first..I am not sure you can still get the smf templates as that club closed.

      If you email www.rockettheme.com/contact I think they might sell one, but I am not sure.

      If you are able to get one I would be glad to help you change the logo.
