Hello,
I've purchased your portaltheme and was wondering how I go about making the theme span the full width of the screen?
I'm pretty now to AutoTheme, so I don't really know where to start.
Cheers
Paul. |

Just a couple of quick things to help us here help you.
Theme name,
type of cms, ie, postnuke, phpnuke and version number
autotheme, which version number
and finally your link to the actual site.

Sorry,
It's postnuke 7.6, Autotheme LT .87. I'm running the website on my computer, so it's not accesible to the www at alarge I'm afraid.
I've managed to make it full width, changed table width from 780 to 100% in themes.php and themes2.php, which seems to have done the trick. Let me know if there's more I need to do though?
Next Q is how do I align the header so its on the left of the screen when I'm on my home page; its on te left of the screen in every other view? And also how do I go about increasing the number of the clickable links across the top of the header?
Cheers. |

So you changed the main table width to 100%?
You would also have to change the tables to align="left" to get them left aligned.
To add more links, you would have to create more buttons and then add them to the table at the top of theme.html and theme2.html
We do offer header customization for a small fee if you want. |

Hello, me again....
Just uploaded the theme to my website, www.mancuniathletes.co.uk and a few things aren't right:
1. On the 'admin message' that displays for registered users the text is massive, though it's the correct size on the 'admin message' for unregistered users.
2. The items on the right block aren't in the same order as they are in the postnuke blocks administration bit and some that should be in the left block ar ein te right block. Are these hard coded intot he theme and is it easy enough to get them to appear as set in the postnuke blocks bit?
Thanks in advance. |

It isn't the theme causing that, it's your code in the block
Code:
<font size="12">Hello and welcome to the internet
The blocks, go into Admin- AutoTheme-portalsite-theme defaults-block control and select reset to defaults. |

Thanks for that, font sorted. Any idea why I didn't have the same problem with that font size on my previous theme?
I did what you recommended to sort all th eblocks out, but it's turned all the blocks off it appears, all I get is a white page with no blocks at all on it.
I've changed to a default autotheme, which works fine, but how do I get my theme back?
Cheers. |

| When I click on 'theme defaults', the list that pops up is blank, I assume this is my problem, is there an easy way to get it put back? |

Reupload theme.cfg
It looks like the old apostrophe bug with AT
Remove any ' from the block titles and try it again. |

Apostrophies used to cause AT block control to freak out, it looks like the bug reappeared in a new version.
