Hello, I would like to add a embeded window for a discord chat using this tool: https://titanembeds.com/ It generates a direct link and an iframe code for a simple integration in any website: iFrame Embed <iframe src=”https://titanembeds.com/embed/683812071376420875” height=”600” width=”800” frameborder=”0”></iframe>

But I don’t know where should I add this code for getting the discord chat window on the main page: below the header and above the forum categories (with collapse option if possible),but only for logged in users ? could you please help me ?

Hello;

1- In addition to my previous question, what I mainly need is to have a nice integrition of Discord chat in the forum, so any other solution is more than welcome.

2- I would like to have a Grid diplay when on large screens (PC , Tablet), but automatically toggle to List display when on mobile (smaller display), because the grid display on mobile is too big and makes a lot of scrolling . Is it something possible ? or may be throug a switch if not possible automatically ?

3- Ho do I add icons to each topic ?

4 – One last question: I don’t get the same font colors as on your demo when applying the Dark Base + Grid + Parallax Header configuration. in my case: Category one is in Red, and Topic title an all the details are in White, which is not the case on your Demo. how can I get the same result ?

This is my test website: https://pizzapassion.myddns.me/index.php

Hi there,

The best option for integrating that iframe code would be to paste it directly into the template file:

either:

overall_header.html or sidebar_right.html

After saving, click ‘purge cache’ on the front page of your ACP.

You can use the following IF statement wrapped around your code to show only to logged in users:

<!-- IF S_USER_LOGGED_IN --> *only visible to logged in users* <!-- ENDIF -->

As for your other questions:

1) There might be some extensions available on phpBB.com, I would suggest asking in the ‘extensions in development’ section there

2) That’s not possible at the moment, as it would require extensive refactoring of code. Maybe in the future.

3) Not sure if I understand the question :)

4) Coloured grid titles are only possible when option: “Fill grid tiles with background image?:” is set to “No”. Otherwise there is too much opportunity to blend into the background image

Hello there,
A user noticed a problem. If you use the URL button to insert a link, the window opens. However, everything turns gray immediately and you cannot enter anything. If you click anywhere on the gray, the window disappears. That happens with every browser.
However, if you first select text and then press the url button (my normal way), the tags in the text are set normally without the window and you can insert a link between the url tags. So the problem is only when this little window opens.
If you switch to the Style ProSilver, the window works properly. That’s why I think that this behavior is related to Milk.

Once again, many thanks for all your hard work and efforts

A fix for this issue has been identified.

Open: /styles/milk_v2/theme/milk.css

Find: #inner-wrap { background: #FFFFFF; position: relative; margin-top: -50px !important; z-index: 3; }

Change the z-index value to 45

Great ! It works :grin:

If turn “Content Block Headers” to “Stripe” ~

No gap on top…

Thanks for reporting, will fix this in time for the next release :)

I got html 500 error in my server after installing the 3.3 RC1 version in the new phpbb 3.3. Is there a new 3.3 version coming soon?

Hello,

There were no front-end changes between 3.3-RC1 and 3.3.0, so that shouldn’t be a problem.

Can I ask what version of PHP is running on your server?

How can i set forum title vertical align in center?

Screenshot: https://puu.sh/FcBL6/aa756945a7.png

Hi,

That’s not possible without some pretty complex CSS changes.

Best option is to add a forum description to fill the space.

Hi! I’ve had the Milk theme installed since 2018 and love it! Just recently updated it on my test forum to make sure all would go well, and it seem to have with PHPBB 3.3. Only thing I’m noticing is that the font, font colors, and the ‘drop shadow’ behind the different forum titles is missing? Can’t tell if this is a bug or a re-design. I’ve checked my settings from the live board and this test board and they are the same. Thanks!

Yeah that doesn’t look right.

I’m on the case

Fix:

Open: /milk_v2/theme/icons_forums_topics.css

Find:

.topic_unread:before                        {content: "\f068";}
.topic_unread_mine:before                    {content: "\f068";}
.topic_unread_hot:before                    {content: "\f068";}
.topic_unread_hot_mine:before                {content: "\f068";}

Replace f068 with f00c . Save file and purge cache.

Fix will be pushed to the themeforest download at some point today :)

Thank you! :)

Have this slick way to show images using the forum grid been scraped from the latest version? I only get tiny tiny images to show in top left corner of the grid. https://camo.envatousercontent.com/c5572893a198ab2abbecf09f060b3242dc5252cd/687474703a2f2f7777772e706c616e65747374796c65732e6e65742f6272616e64696e672f6d696c6b2f76322f332e6a7067

Hi there,

Yes, the full-size grid images were removed in 3.3x

We’re still collecting feedback before deciding whether to re-develop the grid layout to support full-size background images again.

That is a bummer, but hands up on getting them back again :) I loved them on our old forum which was scraped for another platform. Now when setting up a new forum I thought I’d lost it when looking to place those full size images again. And for the record – I love this theme!

Thanks for your feedback and support, it’s much appreciated.

Your feedback re the full-size images has definitely been noted :)

how can I use your theme colors from demo ?

Hi there,

They can be selected in the ACP, using the flightdeck extension. Choose an option from the ‘preset colour’ list :)

Hey Christian,

I’ve been using this style for quite a while now and I love it! Simple, and elegant. Here are some bugs I noticed:

- When hovering over the search widgets, the right border for the left button and the left border for the right button are not properly focused (the middle button is on top).

- When switching the postprofile to the left side, the “quick reply” block do not follow and remains on the right side.

- When the width of your logo exceed the width of the device browsing the forums (e.g. 512×128 on xs-phone), it isn’t properly scaled. Seems like the height do not take into consideration the margins, and that the width is maxed at 85% resulting into the logo being “squeezed”.

- When you view the profile of a user that have a rank, the rank title is centered with the rank image, but the user’s avatar isn’t and is displayed on the far left of the block rather than being aligned with his rank.

- The <head> code do not seems to work. Is there anything special to do to activate it?

Here are some features I would like to request:

- Every time there is an update, I find myself adding back my custom.css import into stylesheet.css, would it be possible to have a block for style customization directly in the panel instead?

- I’ve got used to store sidebar’s custom content codes, etc. that I rotate from time to time depending of events and whatnot into the #4 block. But now that it has been re-purposed into the <head> block, I need to keep these codes externally. Would it be possible to have a block in the panel that is not used for anything where we could store any text we want?

PS: I’ve been looking into your H2O theme, and I really like the direction it took! I’m considering purchasing it as well, and allow my users to switch between the two (Milk as light, and H2O as dark) but are they compatible or will they conflict with each others?

Thanks,

Jordan

Hey,

> Re: Quick-reply editor

Right, makes sense. I assumed prosilver was purposely aligning the editor with the posts, but your theory of it being the smiley box makes more than sense. And no worries, that was one of the first thing I’ve noticed and customized on my side. To be honest, I’ve customized everything that was mentioned above for my needs, so don’t go out of your way to patch any of these just for me. I just wanted to report what seemed to be details that were overlooked as you seemed to be back actively trying to improve your theme.

> Re: Rank

On my live board, I have the users avatar centered with the rank and title. I preferred that over pushing the title to the left because it felt overall more consistent with how profiles are displayed when reading a topic, etc.

> – Re: <head> code

I’ve confirmed that I’m using the latest download available (v2.1.2) and it doesn’t seems to work for me (mainly just prettifier script). No big deal though, I will just continue to add that directly in the templates.

Thanks,

Jordan

Hi again Jordan,

Thanks for following up.

For the head output variable, just place {STYLE_SETTINGS_HTML_4} in the overall_header.html and overall_header_simplified.html template files, anywhere before the closing </head> tag :)

Thanks, it works!

Hi i installed the milk theme but even after clearing cache, the theme is still not showing

Hi i reinstalled everything fresh, added theme again. everything is working properly. its just the theme milk is not coming out https://www.jiujitsutimes.com/forums/index.php

Can you send me ACP and FTP login details through the ‘support’ tab above? I’ll be happy to investigate.

sent

Dear Christian

The above replies from bhanu2217 and email bhanu2217@yahoo.com are sent by me. I am the original purchaser of the theme.

Please respond to my email/ticket.

Thank You.

Hi,

How do i change the coloured username in navbar_header with the same colour of the other links?

]https://www.imgdumper.nl/uploads9/5e35697f58642/5e35697f569ff-Screenshot_2020-02-01_-_Index_page.png

Hi there,

That’s the default group colour for admins. You can change it in ACP > Users & Groups > Manage Groups > Administrators > Settings

Thanks,

I thought maybe this could also be changed in the style sheet. But I also have another question.

With Milk_v2 as default theme (phpBB 3.2.9) all registered users are showed on the index page instead of the forum that the user is watching.

See this topic with the same problem and workarround. https://www.phpbb.com/community/viewtopic.php?p=15270511#p15270511

With other styles is copying the dutch (nl) language folder to ”../Stylename/theme/” the solution to fix this problem.

But in Milk this workarround does not work?

Hello
Google Search Console has displayed an error since the last update. The console reported a missing ID in the breadcrumb navigation / navigation paths. At phpBB the problem is known and there is a verified fix until the next update >> https://github.com/phpbb/phpbb/pull/5836 (the section is in the overall_header in Milk)
It works … now everything is green again in the Search Console.

Just for notification ;-)

Hi, the future of “Collapsible Panels” cannot work when I set “Forumlist Display:Grid” in Milk version 3.3.0

Hi there,

That’s correct. Collapsible panels aren’t currently supposed on the grid layout.

Can you support the feature of “Collapsible Panels” on the grid layout? Because the version of 3.2.x has supported it. My forum designs with the feature.

It’s technically possible, I’ll look into it for a future update

Do you know any single sign on plugin free or paid that is supported with this theme, where i don’t have to customize the theme to integrate the single sign on with login page of the theme

Social login has become very basic and important part in today’s world. You can suggest any paid or free plugin that will work with this theme, we can use that.

Hi again,

Please can you send me a message through the ‘support’ tab above? I’ll be happy to look into this, but can’t do so through the item comments section as your purchase is currently unverified.

Thanks

Hi. I really enjoy this theme and I’m enjoying the support so far. One way you can improve it, I wish there was a way to change the default text color using a color table and maybe the default font size as well through the extension. Thank you!

Hi there,

Sorry about the late reply, the ThemeForest notifications have been broken for a while.

Thanks for the suggestion. I agree, this won’t be too difficult to add. It could make it into a future update.

Is there any way to change the font to Arial?

Certainly is.

In flightdeck set the font style to Roboto, then in overall_header, find:

<style type="text/css">body {font-family: "Roboto", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px;}</style>

Replace with:

<style type="text/css">body {font-family: "Arial", Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px;}</style>

Latest MilkV2 version installed on PHPBB 3.3.0.

Forum Icons not working as the shoot only a light grey circle and flashing green circle is showing at the left of the forums. The icons “subforum” is not showing. Switching to “replaces the CSS icons with images from /theme/images/icons/” also not working. The icons are almost invisible (very light grey).

Hi again.

Interesting. I’ve replicated the problem and will follow up with an icon switch fix within the next 12 hours or so.

You don’t need support for bug fixes :)

Hi again,

This has now been fixed, and updated theme files have been published to ThemeForest.

Download the new files, then replace overall_header.html and icons_forums_topics.css

You’ll need to purge cache and also clear your browser cache

The option to use personal icons is working now, Thanks for that Quick update. I can now switch between CSS icons and my personal iconset.

The only thing is that the icons “icon_read_subforum.svg” and “icon_unread_subforum.svg” not been displayed on forums with subforums.

Is that function deleted in the latest version of MilkV2? It worked well in the version before this latest version.

Update: I have fixed that myself. The two icons where replaced in the icons_forums_topics.css by the standard read and unread icons. After adressing the right icons the problem was fixed.

Hi There,
First: I have the problem that the file attachments are shown on the right side although the forum is set to the left side.
https://s19.directupload.net/images/200118/68vcoedh.jpg
Linked images and file attachments inserted in the post are correctly displayed on the left.
I temporarily solved the problem because I changed the css position for the “attachbox” myself.

Second: Can I also use the update 3.3.0 RC for the current, final version 3.3.0 of phpBB?

Hi there,

Thanks for raising this, we’ll roll the fix out in the next update (re: Attachment alignment).

Re: Version number, yep. There were no front-end changes between RC1 and 3.3.0 final, so it’s safe to use :)

I have a problem with stylesheets not loading on Apple devices. The error is “Refused to apply style from … because it’s MIME type (‘text/html’) is not a supported MIME and strict MIME checking is enabled”. Any advice how to fix it ?

Hi again,

Please can you send me a screenhot of this error message through the support tab above?

I haven’t been able to replicate on the newest macbook pro, so am keen to see in what context this is being generated.

Thanks

Hi,

Maybe you can try for yourself ? The link https://wawarium.pl. That should be the easiest way.

Hi again,

I see the console messages you’re referring to. In both cases the files don’t exist, so nothing is broken.

Everything is worked as expected. Those messages can be ignored
