How to update
Since we know you guys hate to completely reinstall the skins...

In globalTemplate, find:

<span title='{$this->lang->words['sign_in']}' id='sign_in' class='rounded'>
                            <a href='{parse url="app=core&amp;module=global&amp;section=login" base="public"}' class='left' data-target-collapsible="login">{$this->lang->words['sign_in']}</a>

Replace with

<span title='{$this->lang->words['sign_in']}' id='sign_in' class='rounded' data-target-collapsible="login">
                            <a href='{parse url="app=core&amp;module=global&amp;section=login" base="public"}' class='left'>{$this->lang->words['sign_in']}</a>

In _loginPanel, find:

            <form action="{parse url="app=core&amp;module=global&amp;section=login&amp;do=process" base="public"}" method="post" id='login'>

Replace with

            <form action="{parse url="app=core&amp;module=global&amp;section=login&amp;do=process" base="public"}" method="post" id='login' autocomplete='off'>

Find:

                            <input placeholder="{$this->lang->words['enter_pass']}" id='password' type='password' class='input_text input pass' name='password' size='22' />

Replace with

                            <input placeholder="{$this->lang->words['enter_pass']}" id='password' type='password' class='input_text input pass' name='password' size='22' autocomplete='off' />

In userInfoPane, find:

                <a href="{parse url="showuser={$author['member_id']}" template="showuser" seotitle="{$author['members_seo_name']}" base="public"}" title="{$this->lang->words['view_profile']}" style="background-image: url({$url})">{$url}</a>

Replace with

                <a href="{parse url="showuser={$author['member_id']}" template="showuser" seotitle="{$author['members_seo_name']}" base="public"}" title="{$this->lang->words['view_profile']}" style="background-image: url({$url})">{$author['avatar']}</a>

In boardIndexTemplate, find:

Skinbox::avatars()->in_forums($cat_data, true);

Replace with

Skinbox::avatars()->in_forums($cat_data);

In globalTemplate, find:

1.5.0

Replace with:

1.5.1

Add this to features.ini (before [ie])

; Avatars (turn this to off to prevent them from being shown on board index)
avatars_in_forums=on

In ipb_styles.css, find:

		padding: 4px 26px 5px 10px;
		margin: 3px 5px 0 5px;
		min-width: 118px;
		outline: 0px;
		display: inline-block;
		overflow: hidden;

Replace with:

		padding: 4px 26px 5px 10px;
		margin: 3px 0 0 5px;
		min-width: 118px;
		outline: 0px;
		display: inline-block;
		overflow: hidden;

Completely reinstall the image set. You should also compare elegant_general.css in both versions (2.2.0 - 2.2.1).

the new image set seems to be missing default_thumb.png?

It shouldn't. I can see it fine under profile/default_thumb.png

[MGrove03]

ye just realised it wasnt processing the space i had put in the image set name

[pericolosogr]

A couple of questions!
1) Is it possible to disable the style piquer? Say that i just want the blue style and no option to change it...
2) Can i revert to the old style login popup box in the new version of elegant?

[MGrove03]

Just realised that on the board index it doesnt show the time of the last post in a topic anymore? it just shows the date. Anyway to change this back?

Im sure Elegant 2.2.0 used to show the time

2) No.

I don't understand this step :S

In /config/features.ini, add this bit of code before:

; Special Internet Explorer config

if your completely re-installing the image set anyway you dont need this step.

Also default_thumb.png doesnt seem to be appearing in topics??

[AlexJ]

If possible tutorial on how to revert breadcrumb to old style, please.

PS Updating skin on my board, thanks!

[Icy]

Olivier, can you advise on the following:

1. Where the above features.ini is located.
I'd like to turn off the avatars on the board index.

2. How to set the default colour of the skin.

3. How to remove the option to change the colour of the skin.

4. Add the time back to each post for each forum which is visible on the board index.

[Olivier Turbis]

If you need support please post in the support area.

The color picker still has this same issue as Joie. When you choose another color than default, load a new page, your will see the default color first, and then it will change to the color you set. For example choosing "black" will make next page you load "blue" for 1 second, and then it goes back to "black". I know this may be a frustrating issue for you guys ^^ ... I did some heavy testing on neowin's color picker and there's no issue there. The problem is that the skin will ALWAYS try to load the default color no matter what other color you've chosen to use. The solution will be to some how totally block the default color when another color is activated.

[ørret]

I also recommend to shorten the text of the "start new blog" (I know this is IPS default though) and change colors to fit the style you've chosen. Now it's yellow background and red by default (doesn't look too good). Here's a pick of how I personally would like it to be on the black skin.



I used color #6E6E6E as background and #cccccc as text.

[Sebastien Penet]

This issue should not happen - it does not happen on my side. Elegant use a new way to manage styles: Joie relied upon a class added to the body tag, now it switches the stylesheets directly. And it's done in php before page load. So.. Show me your website please. What's your browser?

[ørret]

Firefox, and I used live preview.

[Sebastien Penet]

Cookies enabled? Version of firefox? Try at live.skinbox.net (if you didn't; instead of the skinbox.net/browse/live-demo/...).

I don't have this issue.
