Ehren Posted August 28, 2011 Author Posted August 28, 2011 Slate (light and dark) now available for 3.2
AndrewL Posted August 28, 2011 Posted August 28, 2011 Just been playing with Slate, looks nice. Just one thing, on my Android Galaxy S, some pages... as well as the LOADING message.... seem to go off the page whe viewing portrait.Is that a bug perhaps? Thanks.
Ehren Posted August 28, 2011 Author Posted August 28, 2011 Does the same issue happen on the default mobile skin? Particularly hard to diagnose since I just have access to an iPhone 3GS and iPhone 4.
timestandstill Posted August 28, 2011 Posted August 28, 2011 Slate's respect for the iPhone's retina display is reason enough to use it... good work there
Ehren Posted August 29, 2011 Author Posted August 29, 2011 No, the default one seems to not do that..... If you can find out what seems to be causing it (or maybe get a few screenshots), I'll see if I can find a solution. The slate skin is based off the default mobile skin, so it seems like a weird issue..
AndrewL Posted August 29, 2011 Posted August 29, 2011 I will compare and try to let you know. I'm having problems recognising what the differences are between the default mobile skin and this. Can you tell me what the main differences are please?
Ehren Posted August 29, 2011 Author Posted August 29, 2011 Like all skins, it's just visual. The aim was to neaten up the default mobile skin a little since some areas/colours looked a little amateur. No new features as such, but it does work nicely with the high resolution displays (retina on iphone 4, etc). The features are listed on the slate skin page.
AndrewL Posted August 29, 2011 Posted August 29, 2011 Thank you. My mistake Ehren, it seems that on my Android phone the same thing happens with the default skin. Sorry about that. How do we get the icon on the phone display? (IS that new to your skin?) Thanks
Ehren Posted August 29, 2011 Author Posted August 29, 2011 The icon on the homepage is a bookmark feature on the iPhone. I'm not sure how other phones handle it. Bookmarks can be added for all sites. The slate skin comes with an icon for the forum (which I don't believe is included with the default mobile skin). They're referred to as "Web apps", so they don't necessarily behave the same as normal phone apps.
AndresMartinez Posted September 1, 2011 Posted September 1, 2011 Would like to know as well. It seems like most fixes won't affect the skin, but wasn't sure. I'd like to update 3.2.2. right away, as long as it doesn't break anything with the skin.
Ehren Posted September 1, 2011 Author Posted September 1, 2011 I've just finished updating the skins on my development board. There were a few upgrades required, particularly with the blogs and gallery. I'll announce here and on twitter when the 3.2.2 skins have been released. A couple of hours and we'll be good.
LandOfOoo Posted September 1, 2011 Posted September 1, 2011 Friendly reminder! Don't forget to skin those offline pages. Keep up the good work.
Ehren Posted September 1, 2011 Author Posted September 1, 2011 All current 3.2.1 skins are now compatible with 3.2.2 + all addons.
Tophon Posted September 1, 2011 Posted September 1, 2011 Ehren, as last time, would it possible to get a list of the files that will need edits again please?
Ehren Posted September 1, 2011 Author Posted September 1, 2011 The attached zip file contains a html document listing all of the changes. diff-321-322.zip
AndrewL Posted September 2, 2011 Posted September 2, 2011 Do we need to uninstall and install updated files for 3.2.2? THank you!
Ehren Posted September 2, 2011 Author Posted September 2, 2011 Some new replacements were added in my premade skins on 3.2.2, so it's suggested you install from scratch.
AndrewL Posted September 2, 2011 Posted September 2, 2011 OK will do once my board gets updated to 3.2.2 Thank you!
loz Posted September 2, 2011 Posted September 2, 2011 Is it easy to add new template bits to a current skin Ehren, that is, without installing the skin from scratch?
maidos Posted September 2, 2011 Posted September 2, 2011 just curious would it still be ok to not update the sin 3.2.2 even if your ipb is 3.2.1? there wont be any template issues?
Ehren Posted September 2, 2011 Author Posted September 2, 2011 Is it easy to add new template bits to a current skin Ehren, that is, without installing the skin from scratch? No new template bits were added, just a new replacement. But there was a considerable amount of changes which were made between 3.2.1 and 3.2.2 just curious would it still be ok to not update the sin 3.2.2 even if your ipb is 3.2.1? there wont be any template issues? If you are using IPB 3.2.1, then don't update the skin. Only update your skin if you update your forum
The Heff Posted September 3, 2011 Posted September 3, 2011 3.2.2 installed, skin applied, modifications complete.
