Themes for Ravenscripts and Forums

Regular Joined: Jul 15, 2006 Posts: 64

I have a question about searching for new themes.

For instance, when looking for ravenscript themes, can they just be phpnuke themes? Or are there ravenscript specific themes? Anyone have a good resource for these?

And also, for the forums included therein, can I just download styles from www.phpbb.com or do I need to use styles specially designed for use with ravenscript?

Thanks.

well basically you can use all phpnuke themes....but if you run into any old one you have to make some simple edits...

as for the forum templates....

Just for your information: Ravennuke comes with 15 themes. Two of the themes have corresponding Forum templates: fisubice and DeepBlue. If you are using one of these themes within Nuke then Forums will automatically use the corresponding Forum template. If you are not using one of these two themes then Forums will use the subSilver template that comes with it.

You can no doubt add additional themes and corresponding templates from the sites Hitwalker mentioned as well as others. I'd test carefully for interactions before going live with it though.

phpBB themes generally require modification for use with PHP-Nuke and RavenNuke. Some forum mods require theme changes, but we've done many (yet) to RavenNuke.

i have customized a couple of the themes included in ravennuke, but have not done so for the remaining 13 themes. Can I just delete the unused themes from my site or is this gonna cause errors?

Yes you can delete them

thank you

also, should i go into the database and make sure none of my users are using those themes first, or will they be redirected to a functional theme automatically?

If they are using a deleted theme, they will see the default theme when they visit / log in again.
