Post subject: Archive of all phpBB2 Validated Styles |
|
|
Thanks to the efforts of our member Dog Cow we have a tar.gz file that includes every validated phpBB2 Style as downloaded from phpbb.com. We will eventually be breaking this file into individual styles and adding them to our styles demo, once it's up and running. For now it will serve as an archive since the phpBB2 content at phpbb.com may be removed at some point.
Download (~70MB)
And thanks to lumpy burgertushie for setting up a styles demo here:

| Was a styles demo that is mentioned in the above post ever created? I'm thinking of trying out some new styles for my forum and would really like to be able to quickly and easily switch between the different ones to try them out. Anyone have a link to something like that handy? |

| Well, there are sites like this one, but I suppose you won't find everything there and will have to try some yourself. But switching templates isn't too hard as far as I remember, just upload them all in one shot and switch in your profile. |

| OK, that makes sense and I suppose it is pretty simple. I'll try them out that way, and if I pick one to keep, I'll then make any changes to its code that are needed for my installed mods to operate correctly. |

| Many thanks for this. I've been struggling to find phpBB2 styles and modifications since the launch of phpBB3. Excellent work! |

| Any word as to when you were going to create a live styles demo here? Would love to see all of the old themes in action! |

At this point it's not likely to happen. The intent was to set up a link to a vanilla phpBB2 site and do the styles demo there, because this site has too many modifications to work cleanly. It may still bubble up to the top of my list at some point, but not for a while.

Is there anything needed more than a phpBB2 install + a style switcher mod?

Probably not. I haven't had time to look at phpBB code for so long, though; I would not know where to start.

| Since quite a number of styles use the eXtreme Styles MOD, that would be needed too. I can't think of additional requirements. |

Hi, I just putup a demo board here:
https://phpbbusers.com/styles_demo/index.php
I have not installed the extreme styles MOD yet but I will soon.
ok, I just installed the xs mod. all went well but I find no sign of it in the ACP to be able to set it up etc.

does anyone know where the settings for the MOD are supposed to show up in the admin panel? I can't find them anywhere.

| The MOD replaces the Themes section of the ACP with new tools (Copy Templates, Edit Templates, and so on). Since you put up the Styles demo, did you add the MOD to the ACP of ALL styles? |
