Hello, may I ask if your theme includes the CBB custom post editor? Thank you.

Hi,

Is that an extension?

If it is, it should work with Milk without any issues. If it’s something else, it’s not included, but I’ll be happy to look and see if it works :)

After the update to phpBoard 3.3.1 and Milk 3.3.1 on desktop the posting buttons (edit post, delete post etc.) are only shown above the own posts, other posts show the three points of the dropdown menu.

Does it do that in prosilver too?

I’m pretty sure those buttons are designed to collapse when they become too large for the container. I’m unsure what device you’re currently using, but the width is the first thing I’d check.

No, prosilver doesn’t do it.

I use it on desktop with a screen resolution of 1600×900 Pixel.

I’m pretty sure this is functioning as intended.

As you have boxed layout + sidebar enabled, the available area for the post buttons is exceptionally narrow.

Some profiles will have more post control buttons than others. For example, you can’t see a ‘warn’ button on your own posts – whereas you will see this extra button on all posts by other users.

When phpBB detects a lack of horizontal space to display all buttons, it collapses them into a single drop-down button, as you’re seeing now.

The reason this is affecting Milk as opposed to prosilver is because we use more padding on those buttons, which makes each button 8px wider (each). And therefore it is easier for Milk to max out the horizontal width.

The ways to remedy this are to either:

1) Change to a fluid width layout 2) Disable the sidebar 3) Reduce the size of the post control buttons. You can do that in buttons.css on line 21 and 131: https://gyazo.com/e598b42f83e2c8419bf47fa65019b76a

First of all, thank you very much for the theme and updates. I will have a few suggestions. More ad space should be added for Google adsense. The login and registration section should be cool. “Announcements” section should be added without the need for a plugin.

Hi there,

Thanks for sharing your feedback.

For ads, we recommend using the official phpBB advertisement management extension: https://www.phpbb.com/customise/db/extension/ads/ . Milk supports all outputs. We already have custom login forms, although I agree the registration form could look cooler.

I’m unsure what you mean with regard to the announcements section though, do you have an example? And why would it be more beneficial to be in FlightDeck (an extension) rather than another extension?

Thank you for coming back. Trusting the plugins and keeping them updated is pretty hard. For this reason, I think it will be much better to be in the theme. For example, can’t the plugin in the link be built into the theme? https://www.phpbb.com/customise/db/extension/boardannouncements/

I mean, anything is technically possible. Although where do we draw the line? :)

Our specialty is front-end. It is best to let back-end developers add new functionality through extensions.

Hi, I’ve updated to phpBB 3.3.1 and somehow mobile view does not look alright: https://i.imgur.com/1fKbEck.png Do you know what could cause this issue?

Hi again,

Try this. Open: /styles/Milk_v2/theme/responsive/responsive.css

Find:

    .post .postprofile {
        width: auto;
Change auto to something like 300px.

Save changes then clear browser cache.

Nice, looking good now. Thank you!

Nice theme Guys, Waiting For RTL support.

Possible to translate this style ? Thanks

Yep, Milk is compatible with all phpBB language packs (apart from RTL languages) :)

Hello, I want to add a navigation bar menu for important links, like Quartoo phpBB theme. Can you add this or provide me the modifications I need to do ? Thanks a lot.

Hi there,

Easiest option is to use this: https://www.phpbb.com/customise/db/extension/lmdi_multilinks/

There aren’t any plans to add a dedicated navigation bar to Milk for custom links

Heloo, i have this problem when access forgot password page is 404 :| how to solve

Thanks a lot

Hi there,

I’m afraid that 404 errors can’t be caused by front-end themes, so this is a problem deeper in your phpBB installation.

You will need to ask the support team over on phpBB.com/community/

Thanks

How do I make collapsible panels (categories) work with the grid layout?

Hi there,

Collapsible categories aren’t currently supported on the grid layout. This may come in a future update.

Apologies

Do you have any more info about the new theme? I’d like to be the first sale ;)

Not yet, I’ve been taking a break for a few weeks :) . ETA unknown, definitely before the end of the year, likely some time in September.

Awesome!

I am “inexperienced” to modify the Global <head> Code by myself. Could you tell me exactly what should i put in, if i want to add some more buttons (linked to sub-forums) to the header, next to the quick link button? Thx

Hello :)

The best option is to use this extension for that: https://www.phpbb.com/customise/db/extension/lmdi_multilinks/

The display is not good, please check here the flame and the by, there is no space after the by…

How to tell which one? I will have to disable them all?

Hi again,

What extension did you use to remove the topic icons (read / unread)?

Found the problem. It is due to the php version, I upgraded to php 7.4 and this was the problem. I have downgraded now to version 7.2.

Thanks

Can i integrate this theme with my existing wordpress site? Do you accept customizing job?

Hi there,

I’m afraid this theme is only compatible with the phpBB forum software.

Hi, may i know which part of css has code to change colors of these background. picture inserted https://bigbook.in/wp-content/uploads/2020/08/color.png

Hi there,

We can’t provide support for this nature of customisation, although you can find the CSS source for those elements by right clicking on them and choosing “Inspect element”

Is the newest version of Milk (2.1.4 fix) compatible with phpBB 3.3.1?

Milk 2.1.5 isn’t a specific update for phpBB 3.3.1 (that will be coming in the next few days), however the current version of Milk will run on 3.3.1 without any issues :)

Thanks…but, I will tell you they discovered the following: https://www.phpbb.com/community/viewtopic.php?p=15564231#p15564231 I applied the two changes to your forum_fn.js file and it fixed it.

milksupportimage

How to fix?

Maybe this will help you. I updated forum to 3.3.1 and maybe this break the theme?

Hmm… I think i know what happen it… Forum description is too much characters is there any limit for forum description? I removed now half description, and now is ok.

Thanks! We’ll look into this and reply to your email within 24 hours :)

Hi, just purchased this style. few questions. 1. avatars are huge, any way to set fixed dimension? https://www.crystul.com/viewtopic.php?f=8&t=9 2.does side bars only support html codes? if not how do i place things like recent topics, top posters, my bookmarks, recent members etc. 3. is there a default avatar for new members. on my site no avatar visible for new member.

Hi there,

1. Avatar sizes are set by the phpBB core. You can define a min / max size in ACP -> Avatar settings.

2. Yes, sidebars support custom HTML. You can enter this in the flighteck extension (the boxes at the bottom)

3. No, but I think there might be an extension for that. I’d recommend checking out phpBB.com for one :)

thx for the reply, about ACP avatar setting, it will force users to upload only small avatar. im looking for solution other styles has which will automatically scale avatar down by setting max width i guess? even milk scales down avatar on mobile device, avatar is not huge on mobile devices. - and this is a new forum im developing gametalk.in, here header image not showing on mobile device, any idea what setting messed it up?

Hi again,

Can you send me a link to your forum through the ‘support’ tab above so I can check out the mobile header issue?

As for avatar, it’s definitely possible to use CSS to scale an avatar to a constrained size, although a much better option is to define size limits in the ACP.

Or do you want every avatar to be exactly the same size?

Are you developing a new theme and will it be better than MILK? Also, will it become your new main theme?

Hi. Are you still working on the theme

Any progress on the new theme?

Support rtl ???

Not very well.

I’m here and just letting you know that none of the theme demos are working on the user end.

Thanks for raising this. It was caused by an upstream provider. Has now been resolved :)
