Update 08.15.2016: Not a whole lot of people are using this theme, and as v6 is on the horizon I will not be upgrading this theme or offering post v6 support for it.
Just a heads up!
Flight of the Prince
a blue & green Harry Potter theme
This is a redo of an old v4 theme I did with
Candice a couple of years ago. It's not very fancy, but I have modified a few of the layout templates, and added extra CSS that wasn't in the original theme. It should be fairly simple to use
and edit, EVEN IF you are not good with coding! I'll explain more in just a little bit.
Usage Rules:• Leave the credits. If you want to move it out of the side bar and somewhere else on the theme, that's fine, but the credits must be visible at all times.
• Do not use this theme as a base. You're free to edit it a lot or a little, but it should not be redistributed as a new theme if you start with what I have provided here. If you decide to change the theme into something unrecogniseable, please let me know.
Theme Includes:• minorly customised mini-profile (including guest MP & custom fields)
• custom google font for title bar text
• justify-aligned default text
• center-aligned default signature alignment.
• removed "Board Name | Threads | Posts | Last Post" bar
• custom CSS with instructions in the CSS sheet
• see this board for post / thread examples.
Required Plugins:• Sidebar Redux
• Sticky Divider Bar
• ProBoards Pagination Control
• Welcome Table Below Ads
Recommended Extras:• banner & sidebar image .psds
(please ignore the Header/Footer text files in this download, they are for v4)
• .psd Font: Jane Austen
• .psd Font: Sea Dreams
• .psd Font: Lumos
CSS Editing:
Even if you are unfamiliar with CSS, I think I've made things simple enough so you can edit things. All custom CSS included with the theme is annotated, stating specifically what each section is for. All custom CSS is located at the bottom of the CSS sheet in your Themes > Advanced Styles & CSS, starting on line
1566. The most you will likely need to do is edit colours, but if you're feeling more adventurous feel free to add or remove CSS stylings.
To replace most of the images on this theme, you can use the theme manager and the theme colors tabs in your admin panel.
However, the sidebar images are in the CSS, starting at line
1609.
To replace the titlebar background image, see line
450.
Questions? Requests?Just reply to this thread! A few notes though:
• No, I will not make custom board images. Sorry, that'll take too much time.
• I will be adding an (optional) header table for House Points / Announcements in a future update.
Revision History:• Oct. 17, 2013 - 1.0.0 Release

You, are the best!
Is there a particular method of getting the Plugins to work? I'm having difficulty on my test forum.

Surprisingly it wasn't as difficult as I'd thought it would be. I spent maybe like, five or six hours converting? If that? Which is including looking for plugins / modifying the MP. I doubt I'll be converting my other themes since they don't seem to get used much, but I might make other themes in the future.

my SiteI'd like to point out this portion of the usage rules for this theme:
If you could please use the credits as shown on the sample template, that'd be great!
You're missing the credit that goes to Candy, the co-creator of this theme.

I realise belatedly that I didn't include the text file with the sidebar content in my download. >_> I'll push out an update after thanksgiving weekend.
For now, just add Candice's name to the same line where you credit me. Unless you were talking about something more specific?

Is there any way to remove the little picture of Voldemort in the category title section? I'm using the theme for a different site and Voldy doesn't quite fit. lol

Sorry for the delayed response, I didn't seem to get a notification for this.
There is a way, but I'm a little frustrated that you're using this skin for a non-HP forum considering I made it for an HP forum. IDK I just find it a little odd.
Roughly around line 450 in your CSS sheet there should be a line like this:
.container > .title-bar { background-image: url(http://kamidraws.paul-shepherd.com/Templates/CChbp1/catbg.jpg); background-position: right; background-repeat: no-repeat; min-height: 30px; padding: 0px 10px; }
Remove the line I've marked in red, or replace the link after 'URL' to an image of your choice.

thank you so much for the skin! It's gorgeous. I will be sure to shoot the link your way when I have done editing it to suit the site it will be used on.
That is if you want the link?
