vB4: Skinning Your Forum

by Don Kuramura on Fri 23rd Oct '09
In the spirit of providing more documentation to our customers and developer community, we put together two PDF documents and an example style. The first is "vB4: Skinning Your Forum in 10 Easy Steps." This is a step-by-step guide on how to customize the main areas of your vB4 Forum.

The second document is the vB4 StyleVar Visual Dictionary. The StyleVar (style variable) Dictionary is more of a complementary reference guide aimed at understanding how and where to use each StyleVar for advanced customization. As we finalize the product, I will continue to provide updated versions of these two docs.

Finally, I also included a zip file, "Wave 1.zip" that includes:
1. Image files used in this vB4: Skinning doc.
2. wave-style.xml - if you want to install this new style.
3. install.rtf - instructions on how to install wave-style.

We are currently writing similar documents for customizing the new CMS. Stay tuned.

I hope these documents are helpful and I welcome suggestions.

Re: vB4: Skinning Your Forum

I read this last week. I was hoping they'd release something a bit more in depth for users but who knows.

It shouldn't be too hard to skin the new designs now that they're up with the times and don't use tables for everything.

Santai over at gfxstyles has been playing with the new style and has it available to work with for anyone who has nothing to do and wants to experience the new 4.0 current style in progress.

Re: vB4: Skinning Your Forum

I am just hopeful when there are not many changes between the Public Beta they want to release next week and the RC's and GOLD versions as that way when it is all released some of you graphic designers and stuff will have skins ready to go when it is released.

I hate having a board that looks like every other board out there.
