  Advice for long term SMF user
Posted by: edjon2000 - 2010-08-28, 01:26 AM - Forum: 1.6 General Support - Replies (17)

Hi all Smile

As this is my first post, please be kind.

I have maintained my clan-based website for the past 5 years and during that time I opted to use the SMF forum software (Currently at 2.0 RC3, at the time it seemed like a good idea) however, I think it is about time for a change, mainly due to their slow development cycle and some annoying problems that have not yet been addressed.

On checking various forum reviews websites, MyBB seems to be top of the list on most of them (or very near the top of the list).

I am currently developing a Joomla based site to replace my old Xhtml/PHP/MySQL based one and would like to take this opportunity to change my forum software but preferably without losing all of the 3700+ posts that exist on my old forum.

My questions are as follows :-

  • Will your software handle 130+ members.
  • Can I merge my existing posts into MyBB.
  • How easy is it to linik with Joomla 1.5.20.
  • How easy is it to change the MyBB template if required.
Any help with this would be greatly appreciated.

I may have some additional questions if that is ok.

  Primary User Group
Posted by: Neko_Neji - 2010-08-28, 12:07 AM - Forum: 1.6 General Support - Replies (1)

Is there away for me to change a user group to another after registering. Like I have where after you register your a "clan member." Well now I want it to go if I could to after you register you will be in the user group called "RATS" and over time if you prove yourself you will move into the clan member group saying that you have completed your training an such.

so basically, I would like the RATS to be the primary user group after registering instead of myself moving them their every time someone registers.

  Change Background Color.
Posted by: Shank N Bake - 2010-08-27, 11:40 PM - Forum: 1.6 General Support - Replies (6)

Hey everyone,

I just recently created my own forum using MyBB. I'm using a theme known as 'Apart 1'. Of course, it is a custom theme.

So now to the problem. I'm having trouble changing the background color. It's currently white, and I'm aiming to change it to black.

I've tried multiple tutorials/guides, and none of them seem to be working. Is it even possible to change the background color of a custom theme?

Thank you all in advance,

Shank N Bake

  Expand the code window

Is this possible to do in a vertical fashion? When I compare this software to VBulletin, the code window is very limited. I can't seem to find the option in the admin CP if it's there! Can I get a little help? thanks all!
