Hello once again! :)

 

I was just wondering if it was possible to change the width of my forums using any .tpl file and what should I be looking for to do it?

 

If you visit my site http://www.crazygaming.co.tv and click on the forums tab you will see that there is panels going down the left hand side.  I would prefer to have full width forums and maybe even relocate those left side panels to a different location.  Could anyone offer assistance on how I could do this?  I use the GamePortal theme.

 

Thanks in advance.

The TPL's need to be changed. If you know HTML you can change them easily.

Change forums.xxx.tpl

In config.php you have put in url the ending slash, isn't it?

You need to delete it.

This is the file structure of GamePortal skin:

 

admin/

images/

img/

js/

plugins/

comments.tpl

footer.tpl

forums.editpost.tpl

forums.newtopic.tpl

forums.posts.tpl

forums.sections.tpl

forums.topics.tpl

gameportal.css

gameportal.en.lang.php

gameportal.nl.lang.php

gameportal.php

gameportal.README-HELP.txt

header.tpl

index.tpl

karma.tpl

list.group.tpl

list.tpl

message.tpl

page.add.tpl

page.edit.tpl

page.tpl

pfs.tpl

pfs.view.tpl

plugin.tpl

pm.list.tpl

pm.send.tpl

pm.tpl

polls.tpl

popup.tpl

ratings.tpl

users.auth.tpl

users.details.tpl

users.edit.tpl

users.profile.tpl

users.register.tpl

users.tpl

 

 

All I want to do is make the forum full width instead of having the forum fill only 75% of the screen due to the sidebar.  I cannot find anything in the .tpl files to help me achieve this goal.  There is no config.php.

I know the structure of Gameportal. I've converted from Template to skin for Cotonti.

What I ment is that in /datas/config.php you have the URL part set with a ending slash, therefor your site gives some problems.

 

It is possible to do it in one block, but it is a lot of work. And I don't want to do the work for Genoa. In a couple of weeks Siena will be the standard.

To give you a start.

You need to change forums.

 

forums.editpost.tpl
forums.newtopic.tpl
forums.posts.tpl
forums.sections.tpl
forums.topics.tpl

 

Delete the whole block "<div id="sidebar">" until " <!-- / Sidebar -->"

Change <div id="content"> to eg <div id="content2">

Copy all entries starting with content in gameportal.css And change content to content2
Where there is a picture mentioned, change picturename and resize the width to what you want eg. 900
If there is mentioned a width 657px change it to 900px. 

Upload the changed files and check what is not ok.
If problems, let me know. 

But for the moment I don't have the time to do it.
But you will learn a lot if you do it yourself.
