I managed to get the background to show up. If I dont want it to REPEAT how big should the single picture be?

And the forum us too big, I can barely see the background. Where do I adjust the forum so I can see more of the background?

THANKS!!

@VaGunTrader I can't really give you an indication of how big an image should be - due to the numerous screen size ratios that individuals utilize.

To adjust the forum width, you should look into creating a "fixed" style. I posted a video about this. Visit the vBulletin4 youtube channel and search for "Fixed Style"

i had a question, is it possible to create a static image on the backgrounds, where the image stays static as you scroll down?

i'm using 4.1.4 version

[vBulletin4]

@macdaddydaryl It's possible - you just need to set the background to "no-repeat"

@vBulletin4

or anyone that can help

how do I set it up so that the main page is the forums? =/

[vBulletin4]

@metalfist54 1. Find index.php in the installation folder. Open the index.php file in a text editor.

2. At the bottom find this line

require('content.php');

Comment out this line as with two forward slashes

//require('content.php');

3. Find this line

//require('forum.php');

By default its commented. Take off the two forward slashes to uncomment it as

require('forum.php');
