Thanks.

I thought of that too when I saw the query, and there was but I removed it. I just figured that once I removed it I would be good.

No matter what I do it's the same:

The current theme stylesheet:

/home/fiddlerm/public_html/test/wp-content/sp-resources/forum-themes/DefStacked/styles/DefStacked

cannot be found. Please correct or select a new theme for proper operation.

At this point it's looking for an extra sub-folder.

Hi:

The DefStacked theme is a child theme of Stacked, right? And you're using the 6.0 child theme template?

Maybe now that you've removed the other folder, the thing to do would be to deactivate the Defstack child theme and reactivate it to see if that resets the pointers.

What does the header of the spTheme.txt file look like in the DefStacked folder?  

Thanks.

Doesn't matter how many times I delete all the folders from that location and re-upload the new ones, it still can't be found and still adds a new subfolder to it's search. Yes DefStacked is a child theme template.

The current theme stylesheet:
/home/fiddlerm/public_html/test/wp-content/sp-resources/forum-themes/DefStacked/styles/DefStacked
cannot be found. Please correct or select a new theme for proper operation.

Ok.  Lets see if its a problem with the changes you made to the child template or something else. 

Can you download the stacked-child template from our site and upload to your site?  It should create a folder called stack-child.  Does that activate properly?

Thanks.

Oops, it should create a folder called stacked-child (not stack-child).

OK,

Well my spTopicView.php file doesn't work though. When I upload that to the new child theme folder everything is kaputt.....
Can anyone see what the problem is?

Thanks

In version 5, I was able to see the spHead information and change it. On this version I can't see where to change anything.

Andy did this for me back in the day:

 

spHead.php

 

Replace the search part:

 

    sp_SectionStart('tagClass=spPlainSection', 'search');

        echo '<div style="margin:0 60px">';

        sp_QuickLinksForum('tagClass=spControl spSelect spLeft', __sp('Select Forum'));

        sp_QuickLinksTopic('tagClass=spControl spSelect spRight', __sp('New/Recently Updated Topics'));

        echo '</div>';

        sp_InsertBreak();

        echo '<div style="text-align:center;margin:10px 0 0 0">';

        sp_SearchForm($searchForm);

        echo '</div>';

    sp_SectionEnd('', 'search');

 

stacked.php

Add this

#spMainContainer #spLoggedInOutLabel {
    margin-top: -5px;
}

#spMainContainer #spLastVisitLabel {
    margin-top: 10px;
    margin-left: -75px;
}

 

spHead.php = user info section

    sp_SectionStart('tagClass=spPlainSection', 'userInfo');
        sp_UserAvatar('tagClass=spImg spLeft');

        sp_SectionStart('tagClass=spPlainSection');
            sp_LoggedInOutLabel('tagClass=spLabelSmall spLeft', __sp('Logged in as<br /><b>%USERNAME%</b>'), __sp('Please consider registering<br /><b>guest</b>'), __sp('Welcome back <b>%USERNAME%</b><br />Please log in to post'));
            echo '<br />';
            sp_LastVisitLabel('tagClass=spLabelSmall spLeft', __sp('Last visited %LASTVISIT%'));
            echo '<div style="margin-top:-25px; float: right; display: inline-block">';
            sp_LogInOutButton('tagClass=spButton spRight', __sp('Log In'), __sp('Log Out'), __sp('Log in and log out'));
            sp_RegisterButton('tagClass=spButton spRight', __sp('Register'), __sp('Register'));
            sp_ProfileEditButton('tagClass=spButton spRight', __sp('Profile'), __sp('Edit your profile'));
            sp_MemberButton('tagClass=spButton spRight', __sp('Members'), __sp('View the members list'));
            sp_InsertBreak();
            if (function_exists('sp_PmInboxButton')) sp_PmInboxButton('tagClass=spButton spRight', __sp('Inbox:'), __sp('Go to PM inbox'));
            if (function_exists('sp_SubscriptionsReviewButton')) sp_SubscriptionsReviewButton('tagClass=spButton spRight', __sp('Subscribed:'), __sp('Review subscribed topics'));
            if (function_exists('sp_WatchesReviewButton')) sp_WatchesReviewButton('tagClass=spButton spRight', __sp('Watching:'), __sp('Review watched topics'));
            echo '</div>';
        sp_SectionEnd('tagClass=spClear');

        sp_LoginForm($loginForm);
        sp_UserNotices('', __sp('(Remove Notice)'));
    sp_SectionEnd('', 'userInfo');

Hi:

Troubleshooting custom code is beyond the scope of free support so I'll leave that portion to someone else in the forum who might be willing to jump in and help.

Regarding the prior suggestion to upload the basic child theme for stacked, did that work or is that part of the thread that no longer needs pursuing?  We were trouble-shooting an error message with your child theme so not sure if we need to continue doing that since you didn't answer the prior question explicitly.

Thanks.

Oh, looks like I actually missed your answer about the child theme from the prior post.  That showed up in my email AFTER your code response. Sorry about that.
