Adapting A Template To Generic Cms (continued)

Important thing to know is i have already used lots money for that template integration and if bid is too high, i will not be able to choose a developer. Please take this in consideration!

Here the old template active : http://www.deathblow.cc/
Here the new template to install : http://www.deathblow.cc/template/

First of all, use /config/config.xml and database i’m using on live server if u installed cms locally to have same menus, frames, etc…

Here the work already done by molikjain and his team : http://174.120.80.6/~jainjain/deathblow/index.php

Some things missing to be sure all is finished. Here’s the details :

About main page :

#1 The main page have to be in 2 columns for the content. Like that :

http://www.deathblow.cc/work/main-columns.jpg

The First column should have :

– News content,
– Archive news Link -> http://www.deathblow.cc/work/archives.jpg
– content below news -> http://www.deathblow.cc/work/below.jpg

The second column should have :

– Usefull Links,
– Vote Image Link,
– Screenshot Image System,
– New to World of Warcraft Image Link,
– Uses on Website (activate it from /config/config.xml file if it’s not appearing in local cms installation).
– Servers status.

And please keep graphic details same as the picture below.

#2 Please add and use news borders graphic details like old cms.

And use Open / Close news functionnality :

Opened : http://www.deathblow.cc/work/opened.jpg
Closed : http://www.deathblow.cc/work/closed.jpg

#3 INNER Pages have to be in One column, Like old CMS is :

for example that page : http://www.deathblow.cc/work/inner.jpg

#4 Some details is missing on *EVERY* Inner pages, like images or borders, for example :

look differences between http://www.deathblow.cc/index.php?n=server&sub=realmstatus and http://174.120.80.6/~jainjain/deathblow/index.php?n=server&sub=realmstatus

or

between http://www.deathblow.cc/index.php?n=server&sub=statistic and http://174.120.80.6/~jainjain/deathblow/index.php?n=server&sub=statistic

lot of things missing and i need each pages looks like old template, so u have to check every pages of the website to see that fit correctly.

#5 Forum Template is missing too, here’s the original one :

http://www.deathblow.cc/index.php?n=forum
http://www.deathblow.cc/index.php?n=forum&sub=viewforum&fid=1

and here’s actually how it is on the new template actually :

http://174.120.80.6/~jainjain/deathblow/index.php?n=forum
http://174.120.80.6/~jainjain/deathblow/index.php?n=forum&sub=viewforum&fid=1

So, some design to do here..

#6 Some pages don’t fit and go outside content borders, so it is needed to make a graphic modification on the new template to extend width in terms of content inside.

Example : http://www.deathblow.cc/work/playermap.jpg

Please check every pages!

#7 I got a charset problem on Forum and some pages of the cms using é, è, ç, à, ô, ê, etc… letters.

When u create a post on the forum, if u insert a “é” on the message, it cut the message. Please try to create a post to know what i mean.

I’m not sure if it’s come from the server or cms php connect method.

Maybe it is needed to force usage of correct charset in php code while it connect to database like :

bool mysql_set_charset ( string $charset [, resource $link_identifier ] )

#8 Top menu must look the original CMS and got all the details :

It must looks like this while opening menu : http://www.deathblow.cc/work/menu.jpg

and contains all links and menus (connected on website or not).

-> Realm Menu, Character menu, Context menu, Language menu, login box, and while connected on website, Profile button, Private messages, display Username logged in, Logout button.

All that things at this place :
