Needs upgrade to SMF 2.1.3 ? #1

Open SkybuckFlying opened 1 year ago

SkybuckFlying commented 1 year ago

SMF 2.0.15 no longer works on my web host which only allows PHP 8.0, PHP 8.1 and PHP 8.2.

SMF 2.1.3 is the latest version which does work on PHP 8.1. However after performing required/mandotary upgrade from 2.0.15 to 2.1.3 the Havvo mod is removed/deinstalled.

(I doubt the current Havvo mod will work, so I won't even try it, at least not on the remote server !)

I love the look of this mod, can it please be updated to SMF 2.1.3 and PHP 8.1 ?! That would be great !!! =D

Perhaps in the future as there are no plans to update it at this time. Will definitely take your comment into consideration to prioritize this theme if it happens.

For now my PascalCoin forum uses the FUSION theme which is somewhat similiar to HAVVO though still different.

Fusion does have some issues though, like the post becomes white background and silver text after modifieing it, also the text makeup buttons/icons are not visible in firefox browser when hardware acceleration is disabled.

Also fusion has a darker theme/background. I am starting to like it, but perhaps HAVVO was better with a lighter theme, I am not sure which one I would like better, but I would be interested in an updated HAVVO to try it out.

I also had custom graphics for it and fortunately I made a screenshot of it... so I can show how it looked like:

Here is screenshot of Havvo modified by me for PascalCoin graphics: http://www.skybuck.org/PascalCoin/PascalCoinForumHavvoThemeScreenshot.png

The havvo version is probably a bit easier to read.

GitHub I use in "daylight/white" mode... it's kinda akward to have to switch between light and dark mode websites... hmmm...

I do like both though... hmmm Havvo with pascal coin graphics looks a bit more distinquished...

I do like the fire bars of fusion... maybe black bar of havvo be like their orange bar, but is fine the way old way is too... hmmm

Now I am interested in a new theme... for my UFO Alert Tool... so if you have any recommendations ?! LOL.

Maybe something greenish or light blueishes like the youtube playlist channel for my UFO Alert Tool... hmmm... or maybe later when UFO Alert Tool graphics are done and tool is operational... hmmmm.....

Perhaps some light and medium blue resembling the sky, maybe some menu items silverish like the skin of a UFO, maybe some special bars or effects to resemble light beams from the UFO, maybe search lights, maybe withish, or a combination of colors, changing/radiating/cycling lol... maybe icons with a spot light of a ufo beam/search light on it...

Maybe some sparkles from the UFO magic exhaust engine... and perhaps some shields or lights from it's lights on it , or blackish windows... perhaps even some alien eyes/head grays =D though that a bit too much maybe ! ;) :) =D

Maybe also some dirty ET finger to add some humor to it, perhaps a custom cursor if possible ! ;)

I'd suggest to look in the SMF theme site. My only opinion would be to find one theme that already has some images or graphics that you can easily replace with different ones and adapt it to your needs.
