[Beta] Simple Drop Down Menu

[Taz]

what skins does it work with?

[david]

Well, it works by default with prosilver. For any other skin you'll have to make custom modification to the code. You can ask here for help if you need it.

[Taz]

how to we do it with the skin blueSilver?

[david]

Hmm, can you give me a link to the skin demo or at least download?
It sounds like a subSilver 2 based skin, and I'm not sure if flaps has included information about adding it to subSilver2 based styles. Shouldn't be too hard, though.

[Taz]

I can't find it but how about this skin, http://www.awesomestyles.com/phpbb3-sty ... n&version=

[david]

That one is proSilver based, so it should work right "out of the box". You can change the overall background color by going to common.css and adding under post bg3 another one called post bg4 and give it the color you want. Then just change the background in dropdown.html and it should work fine.

[Taz]

wow, how do you know if it is prosilver based?

[david]

one of the biggest tells is if it has rounded corners. Another way is to look at the page source and if it is predominantly made with tables, it's subSilver2 based, but if it's predominantly made of <div> tags using CSS, it's most likely proSilver based.

Those are the two main styles (the only two official ones from phpBB.com). Of course other custom styles can be made, but the vast majority are based off of one of those two.

[Taz]

oh I get it now.

[Flaps]

Yep, as David said, this thing will work on any prosilver style.

I have deleted subsilver from my site, as we don't use it, but that should be the same
