Hi,

I'm not expert, so: please sorry if questions are stupids.

I'm trying to change forum.css,
I create a well working new forum.css,
then create a Theme,
copy all default theme generic files and add my personal css
then change headers.tmpl fo add favicon and metatags,
when coming back to forum I get favicon, but my css was lost.
Charged it once again, it works, but lost favicon.

Then I edit message templates, because a problem with traduction (volonteer traduce and format in iso-8891 , but needed utf-8), and I've make an error, a syntax error in /include/theme/mytheme/err.inc. Change it, working well, but lost the possibility of access by login for everybody.

Going back, install all files in backup to server,
work well, but lost css (even if in backup file it was the right css!)

The problem is that my css is lost everytime I go editing others templates like headers or footers or messages.
And if I rebuild theme I get back the syntaxe error I have produced in err.inc
How can I fix it?

Sorry if I'm not understable or clear enough.
Thank you very much for your attentiuon.

You need to copy and edit the template file. The forum.css file is generated from forum.css.tmpl. For details, see http://cvs.prohost.org/index.php/Create_a_new_theme

Hi,
I've done all the step in the link you sent me,
reading this once again
i think that my problem is because I've not do that:
Quote:
Also, remove all sections ({SECTION:...}) that you haven't changed for your theme.

I've not do yet, because I'm note able to understand what it mean,
can you or someone , please, try to explain me more easily?
Thanks so much

You don't have to remove the unchanged sections. However, it's recommended because it prevents duplication and makes the new theme smaller and easier to maintain.

The use of sections is explained at http://fudforum.org/forum/index.php?t=msg&th=4222

Best regards.
