Same Style like Coopermine

Schahab · April 16th, 2006, 04:52 AM

Hello,

has anyone an idea, how i can get the same galerie style like in coppermine? I dont like the Photopost Style, it is much more complex than in coppermine. Thas isn good, users dont want to have 10000 features, they want to get to the point with one click.

So if anyone has an idea, let me know. I cant edit the template myself, because the are not whon in any WYSIWYG editor, that makes the thing nearly impossible to edit the templates...

If I look at the coppermine demo and compare navigation look etc

Just turn off the photopost sidebar and same layout or navigation look.

Hmm,

yes you are right, I checked out your tempkate here @ the forum. I looks much better than this one:

Did you change it your way? For example, the Recent Photo Box at the top and the Recent Comments at the bottom. My gaerlei ist looking too bad :-(

It's all in how you set the options. All within admin you set whether you want a sidebar or not, whether you want recent comments or not same with recent photos yes or no and top or bottom

Hello,

all right, Thank you. I just edit some points in the admin, but i can not find a option for example, to display the Recent Photos at the top or the sidebar at the bottom and so one...?

Ah thats easy here you go

Admin => Layout Options

Show recent photos in default location (bottom)? (if no, will display at top)

Admin => Sidebar Options

Sidebar Placement?
Set this to off for no sidebar or left or right depending on your tastes. OFF

UnderCategory Bar
Display Recent Comments and Who's Online Pals yes

THAT SHOULD DO YA

Yeah, I love your support! Allways very quick!

So, maybe it is possible, that I can download your template of the galerie including the css files to import them into my galerie, so that i have the same cool design like yours?

It is maybe possible? :-)

I think you mean CSS.

If you set the settings like noted you should have the same template layout. As far as CSS you would need to find a style you like. The style this site uses is not the photopost style but the vbulletin forum style so you can not use that over a standalone Photopost. You can change style colors as you see fit in Admin => Edit StyleSheet

Hello,

I dont use the standalone photopost. I use it with my Vbulletin Board. But is it possible to use another css file in photopost than my vbulletin board uses?

Yes you can put you would need to turn off the enhanced integration in

Admin => Edit Integration

Then you would edit your stylesheet as mentioned above and change your colors and such accordingly.

OK I will try it, but i want to use the footer and header, only the css file should be another one. So ir there is no other way, i must go this way, and integrate the header and footer manually...

You would need to make mockups of the header and footer and link them if you do not want to use the vb3 enhanced integration.
