My b2evolution Version: 2.x

I'm trying to use the same skin i.e. Evocamp, for different underblogs with different backgrounds. So far so good. I have Evocamp skin and Evocamp2 skin which differ only in planks.gif. I can install Evocamp2:
* 3 containers have been found in skin template «evocamp2/_body_header.inc.php».
* 1 containers have been found in skin template «evocamp2/_sidebar_left.inc.php».
* 1 containers have been found in skin template «evocamp2/_sidebar_right.inc.php».
* Skin has been installed.
But now I have a problem!
The blog skin has been changed. Edit...
Sub template [_posts.disp.php] not found.

Weird. The file doesn't exits.
Can you try commenting out ../blogs/inc/skins/_skin.funcs.php line 250:

'disp_page'           => '_page.disp.php',


Here it's called and it is quit useless to call a file that doesn't exist.

Please report back to this topic.

Good luck

But line 250 is:
'disp_posts' => '_posts.disp.php',
I did remove it and now I have new problem:
Unhandled disp type [posts]
PS. The original Evocamp is working fine:

Sorry, it's line 249. Try commenting out that one.

I a as confused as you about the thing with Evocamp working and a modified Evocamp not, but only this afternoon I experienced something different but than again somewhat equal with another skin.

Same result without line 249:

Sub template [_posts.disp.php] not found.
User level 10 help info: [/home/www/lampmaster.se/skins/evocamp2/_posts.disp.php]

and the original one is still working as well all the other ones :-(

PLEASE upgrade to 2.2.0! As a beta-user you are probably hip to the idea that your particular version MIGHT experience dramatic changes on the path to 'stable'. I am not saying 210 to 220 is dramatic, but PLEASE keep your beta up to date. I just updated mine to 220 even though I felt like I was getting comfortable with 210.

Yeah for sure beta users gotta keep up because if y'all don't the developers won't get the best possible feedback on the latest and greatest release.

Thanks!

Hello,

I read this post and wanted to ask if you could be so kind as to post
the steps here that you did to actually clone your skin please?

I am using the 2.2.0 version and would like to if I can to try this method
out as it might help me to sort out the issue of using the same
theme but just want to be able to use different Header images on each indvidual blog itself???

thanks in advance for the help with this question your help sure
would be appreciated.

A cloned skin is simply the same skin in a different folder. So if you have two folders kin 1 and skin2 with identical content, the skin is cloned. In backoffice you will see two skins that are installable.
What you want to do it exactly that and in every folder you change the picture of the header.
That's it.

Good luck

Hello Afwas,

thank you for the reply back into this question, I appreciate it.

I did try as you said but it didnt seem to work with the niftycorners theme,

I copied all the exact files that was in the orginal theme itself and was I suppose to rename the 2nd folder? As I renamed it to niftycorners2 but
all the files from the orginal theme is what I have in there at the moment?

Also I need to ask will this work without having the exact same content
for each blog?

As what I was trying to acheive was using one skin put it into a folder on
its own as you had suggested and simply renaming the 2nd folder to say
skin 2 skin3 etc? Or is that wrong??

Also if I may ask please forgive me if I sound dumb here but this is a
bit new to me, but where do I put my header image for each theme
that I would be cloneing here?

I had a heck of a time to get the first nifty corners changed out and
what I finally did in the end was I copied the css. file into the the
2nd blog I created and I first off put the header image in the media
folder but it would'nt show up,

so I kept that image there and also put the image then again into the
folder where the 2nd blog was created and it showed up then

but I didnt remove the header image from the media folder so I have
2 copies of the same image now in the 2 folders???

I also saw where there was a method to use the widget FreeHTML thru
the dashboard but got stuck as I didnt no what to actually put in that
widget to get the header image to show up.

Yes I am a bit green when it comes to the tech side but I am willing
to try the steps and learn it all:)

I do thank you very much for taking the time out to reply back to my
questions here hopefully you can shed some lightbulb affects into my
set of further questions here to help me along

P. S If you like here is the questions I was asking on the freeHTML Widget help here to better explain what I was after with trying the HTML widget

it said in that post this step: background:( url image.gif) with URL being where your image is located at? But again needed to ask where or also how to find that URL ( meaning where should I have stuck the header image into which folder?) That was before I found this thread and saw
the part on cloning which might achieve the same results but still needed
some clearer steps on the questions posted, thanks in advance once
again:)
