    meaning? If youre css competant, you'll notice theres a signin.css in your /styles/vanilla (or whatever) folder. You can play with that to get what you want.

    Do you mean editing the content? Then it is in the dictionary files. If you could give us a little more detailed information, that would be great. It is a little hard to give you specific instructions at the moment though.

    I mean to be able to edit the content... that's in dictionary? I've failed to find a folder or filed called Dictionary

    yeah. check out /languages/English.php. The main bits you'll probably want to look at are 'About Vanilla' and the couple below that.

    Ahh Thank you kindly...

    Umm... it's in utf8... how can i use symbols like ® without it messing up?

    If the character codes don't work for you, you can always change your character encoding in the appg/headers.php file. (note: this will be a configuration option in version 0.9.3)

    What is normal character code? lol

    utf8 seems to be the most popular by people on here.

    I don't really understand why using html character codes doesn't work for you. Like, if you want the © character, just type ©

    well it works in the language file but when I try to use it in Banner title and application title... it displays a questionmark...

    That'd be down to the Language settings on your computer and not a result of anything to do with what character code you use.

    sorry. I wasn't clear on the dictionary/ language file. I was just on my way out, and thought I lend a hand in what little time I had available. I hope I didn't waste too much for your time by making you look for the language (English.php) file.

    ah nah, i shouldve associated it... gonna check out my comp settings now I guess...

    the ® works everywhere else but in the banner and application title... including in other websites it works.

    I have looked into it, but I can't seem to find the problem? It's frustrating I know. I'll keep at it though.

    It's probably not too big a deal... but I'm pretty picky. BTW this is awesome software... as soon as I find a way to get ipb converted to vanilla, I will start converting all my forums to it.
  • MinisweeperMinisweeper New
    convert ipb to phpbb and then convert to vanilla. I still havent got round to writing a straight converter for ipb. I'm so lazy :(
  • nathannathan
    get to it mini!
