How to update styles from 1.3 to 1.5 format

[Pekka]

If you've done changes to EE's inbuilt styles, the changes are overridden when you copy new files over old ones.

Updating styles to 1.5 format means that you need to add few lines to old style files. There is also a new logo graph and a new tab graph available in Photoshop format at http://photography-on-the.net/ee_style_tab_and_logo_15.zip.

USE NOTEPAD or any other editor (like UltraEdit, Homesite) that saves plaintext files (without any extra formatting).

The changes you need to do in your style.php file:


1. CHANGE ALL WORDS

hexcolorshifter

to

ee_hexcolorshifter




2. ADD before line that says

// this code does bgcolor conversions for unstandard situations (DON'T EDIT)

THESE LINES:




// SCROLLBAR COLOR (IE ONLY)
$scrollbar_face_color = ee_hexcolorshifter($s_back_color,".9");
$scrollbar_shadow_color = ee_hexcolorshifter($s_back_color,".7");
$scrollbar_highlight_color = ee_hexcolorshifter($s_back_color,"1.05");
$scrollbar_3dlight_color = ee_hexcolorshifter($s_back_color,"1.1");
$scrollbar_darkshadow_color = ee_hexcolorshifter($s_back_color,".5");
$scrollbar_track_color = ee_hexcolorshifter($s_back_color,".95");
$scrollbar_arrow_color = ee_hexcolorshifter($s_link_color,"1.0");

// RATINGS COLOR
$s_ratings_color_0 = "000000";
$s_ratings_color_1 = "990000";
$s_ratings_color_2 = "990000";
$s_ratings_color_3 = "990000";
$s_ratings_color_4 = "990000";
$s_ratings_color_5 = "990000";
$s_ratings_color_6 = "990000";
$s_ratings_color_7 = "990000";
$s_ratings_color_8 = "990000";
$s_ratings_color_9 = "990000";
$s_ratings_color_10 = "990000";






That's it! Now the style is updated to be compatible with EE 1.5. If you have photoshop 7, use http://photography-on-the.net/ee_style_tab_and_logo_15.zip templates for better looking tabs and logo.

NOTE: IF YOU HAVE 1.3 STYLE FILES ASSIGNED IN 1.5, YOU WILL GET BLANK PAGES. SO STYLE UPDATE AS ABOVE IS A MUST, OR USE ONLY INCLUDED 1.5 STYLES.
