Full Version: How to Rename "My Category", and Change Forum Looks?
You're currently viewing a stripped down version of our content. View the full version with proper formatting.
I would like to know how to rename the default forum "My Category" to something else. I apologize if this has been asked here before, my ad-blockers are making the search on most sites glitchy, so I was not able to search for this topic. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I would also like to know how to change the looks of the forum. I want to change the logo, and make everything darker. If you can, I would like to know how to make my own themes and install them.


Thanks,
Shawn E. Reynolds
1. Get another adblocker if yours is blocking the search funtionality on a forum.
This is a good adblocker: https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detai...kkbiglidom
2. Go to AdminCP -> Forums & Posts
3. Styling is done in AdminCP - Templates & Style
4. Changing your logo is also done where point 3 is done. Just scroll down.
5. Might sound harsh and I'm sorry to say but don't even start making your own theme if these things were to difficult for you.

Thanks for the help, as well as the link, though I do not use Chrome as I dislike Google. They were not too difficult, I was just tired and my eyesight is not very good anymore.

EDIT: I cannot find where to change the logo. I found the text-box for the board logo, but I do not know what I should put in the text box to use the logo I want.

The path/url to the logo.

So something like images/random.png if the image is uploaded to the images folder in your install or something like http://random.com/blabla/random.png if the link to the logo is external.
