install theme problem
Im using smartdark for my theme for my site, and now I want to use the sublack theme for just my forum only.

I downloaded the phpbb sublack theme and went to my admin cpanel then to forums. From there I went to install theme sublack, BUT it still only shows my smart dark theme

as far as I know I uploaded the theme to the forum/template dir and it should work

I know i did or did not do something right, so how do I properly install a forum theme?

If you are using 6.5 the only thing that should be in modules/Forums/templates is subSilver.

If you want to combine two themes together then you need to do exactly that, but they both have to be 6.5 themes. If you try to add the forum section of a theme that is from 6.0 to work on 6.5 it either wont show and you'll get the default subSilver or it will throw a bunch of errors.

Here is how you combine them. Please note you need to give credit to both authors of the themes if they are different.

First you want to open the forum.css which is found in themes/forums/forum.css, rename all instances of the name of the theme, to the name of the theme that you are using on the Nuke side, save this file as forumedit.css (we are going to change it later, this is just so you don't bugger up the backup if a mistake is made)

There are two ways you can do it from here, depending on whether the image names are the same or not. You can go through all the tpl files that are associated with the theme you will be adding to the forum and make sure all instances of the current theme name are changed to the theme you are using on the Nuke side.

Please note: if the image names are not the same you will need to go through the tpl files and check for hardcoding of the theme name, and change it, then upload all tpl files related to the theme after checking the name along with the forumedit.css, but do file transfer as forum.css so that way if there is an issue you can upload the original right away without having to worry about making the changes back.

Second way works if the image names are the same. upload the images to their respective places for the forum, and upload the forumedit.css again do file transfer as forum.css
