Worked a treat for my forum, thanks craig
I think this would have worked perfectly, had I not already mod-ed my forum with a fixed width banner -and so it’s looking a bit weird! Do you happen to know a fix for this problem? Thanks!
Hi Bara,
This is not one I’ve head of – what is your forum page that has the problem so I can take a look and what it’s doing?
Hi
I am stuck at step 1 cos i could not find styles/yourstyle/theme/content.css.
i am using phpbb 3.
THANKS!
It just means you need to find the content.css file in your theme. Where it says “yourstyle” replace that with the name of your theme.
