probably (%99.99) you have your skin files (index.main.php style.css etc) in a sub folder.. (like .../skins/pixelgreen/pixelgreen/index.main.php) .. please check if you have your files under /skins/pixelgreen only

Hi b2bmike,

Please check Dashboard -> Global settings -> Skins -> (hit the link that says 'Instal new') and see if the Pixelgreen skin is listed there. If so install it.
If not go one level up (Skins) and check if it's listed there (then it's installed properly). You may want to refresh (there's an icon) at this point.

If your skin is not listed at either screen, please check if it's uploaded properly as tilqicom suggested.

Good luck

Guys,

Many thanks for your feedback.

This is the link I get http://lebenvironment.com/Newsblog

This is the path where i have pixelgreen: public_html/Newsblog/skins/pixelgreen ( and the files style.css and index.main.php are embedded there)

I can select other skins but not pixelgreen. I'm not sure my new skin is compatible with the blog version although I downloaded the new blog but again it shows at the bottom of my admin site (b2evolution 1.10.3).
how can I tell which version is my blog?

Gush I have the feeling this is very easy but I can't figure where I'm going wrong.

Thanks in advance for your feedback

Ah. For v1.* installations you have to use v1.* skins. Go to http://skins.b2evolution.net/one.php and see if there is something you like, but don't be too let down when pixelgreen doesn't show up.

This problem is heading towards the 0.01% tilqicom didn't mention:

EdB the reason why I want pixelgreen is because its closest to the concept of my website which is an environment one.

So whats the 0.01% problem then ? :roll: :oops:

thanks gents for your feedback

Currently you are using a 1.10 blog. You'll need to upgrade to 2.4.2.
As you wrote in your first post, you did upgrade, but you'll need to check that since the source of your blog page says you didn't.

So I advise you to run through the steps of upgrading your blog to 2.4.2 again and try to install the pixelgreen skin if the upgrade succeeded.

See this line in the source of your blog:

<meta name="generator" content="b2evolution 1.10.3" /> <!-- Please leave this for stats -->

Good luck

btw the files that I have under my skins forexample Miami_blue has the following files _bloglist.php, _feedback.php, _linkblog.php, _main.php and skinshot.jpg

While on the other hand the files under pixelgreen are _sidebar.inc.php, index.main.php, skinshot.jpg and style.css

is it normal to have different files in different skins? just figuring things out 8|

You have a skin for v2.*, but are running v1.10.3 is the problem. You have to use skins for v1.* (which you can get from the link I provided) and make it be like pixelgreen OR upgrade your installation to v2.4.2 and use skins for that generation.

B) i presumed he was using 2.x.. not many 1.x users left (: despite the fact that i dont like political speaking guys, it seems that mistake margin works every time for changing your mouth later on P:

I'm just trying to statistically proof that your margin of error is larger than 0.01% ;)
