Hello to all!
I have recently started using MyBB, I tried phpbb and I found myself very badly, luckily for me I've worked very little with this forum!.
I open this thread because I am looking for help to fix small problems with the forum.

My theme is: Metro

I like it because it is very minimal, not too much changed, and pleasant to the eyes (maybe only for my eyes Big Grin )

In order this are the problem:
  • Wrong time setting in header bar.

Header bar image

-------------------------------------------------------------------
  • Custom Logo

"You don't need a logo with this theme. The text that will apear in the header as a logo is the "Homepage Name" ("Configuration" » "General Configuration").

Why this? I need to customize my site with the logo! Toungue

My logo image!

---------------------------------------------------------------------
  • No star rating!

This function is active but don't work, why?

Little example!

----------------------------------------------------------------------
  • Post icon

Other function active but..not working Confused

post icon example

----------------------------------------------------------------------


And that's all...... for now Big Grin

A big thank to those who help me!

p.s. sorry for my english, i am italian and i write a little good Blush
Tinypic isnt working for my somewhy, but star rating can be disabled from ACP -> configuration -> Forum Display Options.
Time on your board can be corrected when you update your timezone on user CP.
Post icons can be removed from templates. There is guide on that [Tutorial] How to completely remove post icons
And you can put your own logo by going to templates -> Header templates -> header, search for this:
<div class="logo">
and put your image between these tags.

Hello and thanks to your reply.
  • Time in header: Time setting ok! symply go to my cp panel and select the right option Big Grin
  • Star rating: I disabled this feature, thinking it's better this way Dodgy
  • Post icons: I disable this option. Big Grin

I have not understand how to put the logo. Could you be more clear? in this code what I have to add, remove, modify?

This is the code:

<a name="top" id="top"></a>
{$welcomeblock}<a href="{$mybb->settings['bburl']}/search.php"><img class="tooltip" src="{$theme['imgdir']}/Searches Folder.png" alt="" title="{$lang->toplinks_search}" /></a>
<a href="{$mybb->settings['bburl']}/memberlist.php"><img class="tooltip" src="{$theme['imgdir']}/Windows Card Space.png" alt="" title="{$lang->toplinks_memberlist}" /></a>
<a href="{$mybb->settings['bburl']}/calendar.php"><img class="tooltip" src="{$theme['imgdir']}/calendar.png" alt="" title="{$lang->toplinks_calendar}" /></a>
<a href="{$mybb->settings['bburl']}/misc.php?action=help"><img class="tooltip" src="{$theme['imgdir']}/Help.png" alt="" title="{$lang->toplinks_help}" /></a>
</div>

<a href="{$mybb->settings['bburl']}/index.php"><h1>{$mybb->settings['homename']}</h1></a>

</div>

		<hr class="hidden" />
		<br class="clear" />
		<div id="content">
			{$pm_notice}
			{$bannedwarning}
			{$bbclosedwarning}
			{$unreadreports}
			{$pending_joinrequests}
			<navigation>
			<br />

thanks!
There is a problem with that, because if you put header, you need edit the css, otherwise header will go over site layout, breadcrumbs, and cover them. So if your header has bigger height than 80px I dont recommend doing this. Or you can simply decrease height of your header to ~80px.

In your code, header template aswell there is this line:

<a href="{$mybb->settings['bburl']}/index.php"><h1>{$mybb->settings['homename']}</h1></a>

You can change this part and adapt to your needs:
{$mybb->settings['homename']}

If you want to have logo instead of site name change the above quoted text to something like
<img src="http://YourSite.com/picture.png">

It will work.
Solved! thanks for helping me! Big Grin i'm happy!
