I edited my forum tpl footer and header and all the sudden my whole forum is a scrambled mess. I just added a link to the footer file, no problem, added a link next to my banner (people can't seem to find register link) and everything was fine, but then I added a login link and it scrambled everything. What a mess. I think I no longer have a forum.

I guess my forum was pretty useless anyway, people have been telling me they can't seem to be able to join. They say there was no register link anywhere. So I guess it was already lost anyway.

Well it's still there, I just accessed it.  It seems a bit messed up.  I bet that can be fixed with some code correction.  Wait a bit and let Blake take a look, OK?

I noticed the other day a spammer registered and posted so the link couldn't be too hard to find.

OK its the Iris template that is lost. I can still use subsilver. I guess its back to square one, no anti spam or any more mods.

Yes I saw that spammer found the register link. That template shouldn't fall apart so easy. I added a link, then removed it so there is nothing to fix in the code. I bet is has to be reinstalled along with all the pain in the butt special mods for that template., so its pretty much lost for good. How fragile, that really sucks. Blakes already mad at me and now when he sees all his work is lost he will be really mad, so I doubt I get any help. I guess I can live with the old template.

I really wasn't aware that I was mad at you Dave.  I don't have a clue what made you think that I was...

Your Iris template is working correctly again.  You did not lose anything.  The MODs are still installed.  There was a flaw in your code that made the Iris template display improperly though.  Once that was corrected, then all was back to normal...

You have both a login and register option in your menu, so I'm not sure why people can't see it.  It is only available when you are logged out though.  It wouldn't make sense to provide a Login and Register option after you are logged in:

Thanks nr. I see it is working again on my laptop. I don't know why people can't find it but two people this week told me that, and one last week, they asked how to join and couldn't find link to register. Maybe its the white text on blue, I don't know. I wish I could make it stand out more. At least there is a link on the bottom now. Is that where the error was? I undid all my changes on the header so I don't know what could have been wrong with that.

The problem was in your overall_header.tpl file.  It looks like you tried to add a Blog link to the menu but you placed the HTML code in the script code, which would be wrong.  I created a couple of Blog button images and added a link to your blog in the menu.  The text doesn't match the text of the other buttons, but it is as close as I could get it without a lot more effort and trial and error.  I have no idea what font, size, etc the template developer used for the menu buttons, so it is difficult to match what he used...

I saw the blog link in the safire template but I didn't add it. I didn't add a blog link to the iris either. I didn't even see one there. I did add a register link in the footer first, which is still there, then added one next to my banner w 3 spaces, but it made banner off center so I added one after the banner with 3 spaces, then decided that didn't look right so I changed the one to link to login instead and thats when it fell apart. Anyway its working now. I better be careful adding links.
