Need Help installing Forumactif Edge Theme

Hey all I need help installing Forumactif Edge for my forum can some help me please.

Hi @King,

If you've read the precautionary steps of the installation ( i.e. "Backing up your personal files" ) and have backed up the files you want to save or don't need to backup any files, follow the condensed installation steps below.

1. Go to Admin Panel > Modules > HTML Pages Management > Create in advanced mode (HTML)
   
   
2. Fill in the following portions of the HTML page :
   Title : Forumactif Edge Control Panel
   Do you wish to use your forum header and footer ? : Yes
   Use this page as homepage ? : No
   
   Paste the following code as the page content :
   

   Code:

   <style type="text/css">#fae_cp { font-size:12px; font-family:"Roboto", "Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; padding:3px; }
#fae_cp_main_title { font-size:24px; margin:6px 0; }
#fae_cp .fae_cp_title { color:#FFF; font-size:16px; background:#69C; padding:6px 3px; margin:6px 0; }
#fae_actions input { color:#FFF; background:#69C; border:none; padding:6px 9px; cursor:pointer; }
#fae_actions input:hover { background:#58B; }
#fae_log { background:#EEE; border:1px solid #CCC; height:150px; margin:6px 0; overflow-y:auto; }
#fae_progress { background:#CCC; height:30px; width:100%; position:relative; }
#fae_prog_bar { height:30px; background:#69C; width:0%; }
#fae_prog_number { color:#FFF; font-size:16px; line-height:30px; font-family:Arial; text-align:center; position:absolute; left:0; right:0; top:0; bottom:0; }
.fae_msg_log { margin:3px; }</style>

    </div>
  </div>
</div>

<script type="text/javascript">//<![CDATA[
$.get('https://raw.githubusercontent.com/SethClydesdale/forumactif-edge/master/javascripts/installer-utils.js', function(d) {
  var script = document.createElement('SCRIPT');
  script.type = 'text/javascript';
  script.text = d;
  document.body.appendChild(script);
});
//]]></script>

   
   
3. Check to make sure that your settings are similar to this example and then save the HTML page.
   
   
4. Go back to HTML pages management and click the eyeball on your newly added HTML page to go to the FAE Control Panel. (See Example)
   
   
5. All you need to do after this is click the "Install" button to install Forumactif Edge. Then you can sit back and relax while the installer does its thing.
   

If you have any questions or concerns do let me know. Don't be afraid to make a mistake, because we can always fix it.

Do you know were I can the award system? something like this forum uses?

Thanks

Did you end up figuring out a good awards system? Many users here have wondered, so the information would be handy.

No I did but i still prefer your guys one

You can use our award design, but you'll have to handle distribution manually.

Your profile field should be a text zone so you can format bbcodes. Then you should add this value to the profile field :

Code:

[table class="fa fmd_awards"][tr][td class="a_member"][/td][/tr][/table]

Then add this to your CSS :

Code:

.fmd_awards td {
  color:#FFF;
  background:#69C;
  height:32px;
  width:32px;
  border-radius:100px;
  position:relative;
  display:inline-block;
  text-align:center;
  line-height:32px;
  font-size:18px;
  margin:1px;
  cursor:default;
}

.a_member:before { content:"\f00c"; } /* registered */

Basically the awards are created with TD tags and designed with CSS. For example,

Code: [td class="a_member"][/td]

creates the registered award and the class

Code: .a_member

is used for the icon. Whenever you add a new award, you just need to copy and paste the TD tag and change the class name -- you also need to create a new style in the CSS.

@Ange Tuteur really neat, thanks for sharing!

Would it be too much to ask for the sliding button too? It's ok if it's not possible

@dannig sure.

Go to Admin Panel > Modules > JS codes management > New

Placement : In the topics

Code:

(function() {
  window.fmd_award_list = {
    stop : function() {
      if (fmd_award_list.interval) {
        window.clearInterval(fmd_award_list.interval);
        fmd_award_list.interval = null;
      }
    },

    scroll : function(that, by, max) {
      if (!fmd_award_list.interval) {
        var node = that.parentNode.firstChild;

        fmd_award_list.interval = window.setInterval(function() {
          var margin = +node.style.marginLeft.replace(/px/, '');
          (by < 0 && margin <= max) || (by > 0 && margin >= max) ? fmd_award_list.stop() : node.style.marginLeft = margin + by + 'px';
        }, 1);
      }
    }
  };

  document.write('<style type="text/css">a.award_scroller { color:#FFF !important;  background:#369; font-size:20px; text-align:center; text-decoration:none !important; position:absolute; bottom:0; width:20px; height:38px; line-height:38px; opacity:0; } .fmd_awards:hover a.award_scroller { opacity:0.8 } .fmd_awards a.award_scroller:hover { opacity:1 } a.award_scroller.scroll_left { left:-3px; } a.award_scroller.scroll_right { right:-3px; }</style>');

  $(function() {
    for (var a = $('.postprofile .fmd_awards tbody'), i = 0, j = a.length; i < j; i++) {
      if (a[i].scrollWidth > a[i].clientWidth) {
        a[i].style.marginLeft = '0px';
        a[i].insertAdjacentHTML('afterend', '<a class="award_scroller scroll_left" href="#" onmousedown="fmd_award_list.scroll(this, 1, 0);" onclick="fmd_award_list.stop(); return false;" onmouseout="fmd_award_list.stop();"><</a><a class="award_scroller scroll_right" href="#" onmousedown="fmd_award_list.scroll(this, -1, -' + (a[i].scrollWidth - a[i].clientWidth) + ');" onclick="fmd_award_list.stop(); return false;" onmouseout="fmd_award_list.stop();">></a>');
      }
    }
  });
 
  'par ange tuteur';
}());

It should work on FAE / phpbb3 without issue.

Awesome, thank you! Anything else I'll open a new topic, this one is going out of subject
