A Few Questions

[TheBigBlack]

So, I have almost no coding experience, so I have a few questions...

1. How do you change the display of a page with the MA system? I've been trying to figure out how to edit my TOS page for a while, and I can't seem to do it. I also want to eventually replace a lot of the text links on pages with some icons/images, but again, I don't know whether we have to basically change the page script of the page we want to edit, delete the page and create it with the same name/link, or what we have to do

2. How do you install a theme? I found a free CSS theme I would love to use for my site, but I just have no idea where or how to install it. (I'm using 1.3.1, so I'm assuming that would be different somehow?)

3. How do you make your forum theme the same as your site, so you can avoid using iframes or having an 'offsite' forum? Again, I would love to use this theme, but I have absolutely no idea how

Yep, I think that's all my questions for now, so xD Thanks!

umm I am a little bit confused at what you mean by the MA system. Are you referring to the myadopts.php? I do believe you can edit the layout so long as you know basic css, with or without PHP skills. The navlinks can be edited directly in ACP, while sidebar links have to be edited in a more complicated fashion. I can show you how to do it, if you dont mind modifying php code.

Well there is no simple way to 'install' a theme. The custom themes released in the Themes/Templates subforums are not compatible with new version(they do not support dropdown menu), while the themes you can find from css layout sides need heavy modification too. Id suggest looking into the main theme's css and start from there by editing colors, images, font and other stuff. This is assuming you know basic css. If you dont know css, PM people like Nyxi, Silverdragontears and Gloometh for help.

Okay, thanks, I'll try editing the main CSS then ^^

By the MA system, I mean the pages and such. With the TOS page, it says you can edit it from the admin control panel script, however I haven't found anything that I can edit it from.

Black, to edit pages, find a link that says "Admin Center", click that, go to the content page and click the little wheel beside the page you want to edit. :3

Also, we don't call the system "MA", that is MyAdopts. We're Mysidia Adoptables, most of the time we just call it the script, or MAS (for Mysidia Adoptables Script).

Okay, thanks! ^^
