A massive thanks to
ElseAndrew. Also a thanks to
Xikeon, @smashmaster3 and @tcamara.
The idea for this theme was simple:
have everything you need at your fingertips.Download: Blue Ninja Theme 1_1_7.pbt (89.8 KB)
Live Preview: blueninjatheme.proboards.com/
Features...- Top Bar that scrolls with you on all pages - includes: nav tree, logged in as, edit profile, signout
- Bottom Bar that scrolls with you on all pages - includes: to top, to bottom, shoutbox, new posts, new threads
- Main Page - bottom left: there are some "quick stats".
- To view FULL stats, click the "Forum Info & Statistics" button on the bottom bar. - Thread List - on the bottom of the sidebar, there are individual board stats.
- Post List - On the bottom left, there is stats for that thread.
[/b]" button. Wherever you are, click it to reply so no need to go to the bottom. It follows you where ever you are for easy access.

Plugins Tested...- Sidebar Redux (works) by @smashmaster3
-- I recommend ONLY having a "Right Sidebar".
- Shoutbox Sound V2 (works) by Pebble
-- Because the Shoutbox is 'hidden', I made sure this worked, and it does.
- Monetary (fails to work with the mini profile) by @peter3
-- I tried to get this to work, but sadly to no avail. If anyone can help, that'd be great since it's a popular plugin.
Editing/Using Modifications/Images...Do not use any of my modifications or images on other themes. Especially not themes that will be submitted to the library.
The reason for this, is due to the simple fact that I try make my themes stand out from everyone else's and put a lot of work/effort into them. Having people just take my stuff and use elsewhere is annoying (to say the least). At least have the decency to ask me if you wish to use anything. A simple PM will be fine.
What to Edit...- To change the logo, go into your
forum wrapper, and find
line 17, and replace
exdat.net/Ninja-Logo.png-
Layout Templates > Forum Wrapper > Line 321Edit the blue parts. Change the "Names" to the group names you have for your forum, and the HEX codes to colours you have your groups as.
- In your Shoutbox Settings (Admin > Settings > Shoutbox) set it so new shouts show at the TOP.
Having trouble with the theme? Found a bug? Post below. I wont bite. Promise :-X

[16th November 1.1.7]:
Selecting multiple posts then quoting, would not multi-quote, this has been fixed thanks to Xikeon.
Go to Admin > Layout Templates > Thread > Post List
On line 15 you will see the following:
<tr class="$[post.content_class]{if $[post.even]} even{/if}{if $[viewing_recent_posts]} recent{/if}">
Remove the red part above. Hit save and voila, now multi-quotes work again!!
[15th November 1.0.7]:
Admin > Themes > Layout Templates > Forum Wrapper
On line 427 you will see:
z-index: 9999 !important;
Remove one of the number nine's, leaving only 3. So now it should look like the following:
z-index: 999 !important;
[15th November 1.0.6]:
Admin > Themes > Layout Templates > Thread > Post List
Lines 5 - 10, you will see:
<div class="controls">
$[post.quote_button] |
$[post.edit_button] |
$[post.likes.button] |
$[post.select_options]}
</div>
Replace it with:
<div class="controls">
{if $[post.quote_button]}$[post.quote_button] |{/if}
{if $[post.edit_button]}$[post.edit_button] | {/if}
{if $[post.likes.button]}$[post.likes.button] | {/if}
{if $[post.select_options]}$[post.select_options]{/if}
</div>
[15th November 1.0.5]:
Admin > Themes > Advanced Styles & CSS > Style Sheet
Go to line 997 and change the below from -7px; to 0px;
.posts .post .post-method { vertical-align: -7px; }
[25th October v1.0.4]:
Updated description for the library, and added the PB Support thread link for the theme.
Also added a "live preview" link.
Added "Theme" to the Theme Name.
[25th October v1.0.3]:
Layout Templates > Board > Board List - On line 47:
I have added: ($[board.sub_board.posts] post{if $[board.sub_board.posts] != 1}s{/if})
Placed just before $[board.sub_board.comma]
[25th October - v1.0.2]:
Mini-Profile. Added a new line of CSS for .mini-cell-badges (line 228) - border-top: 1px solid #ebebeb;
[25th October - v1.0.1]:
Removed a stray '>' from the staff mini profile far right box (for when no social media).

From staring at it too much (doing little/tiny bits at a time) I am actually sick of it. Still had other stuff planned but just wanted to release it for the purpose of getting sick of it (not the theme, but the entire process of TRYING to code stuff, failing, having to try fix it, but ultimately get others to help lol). Thank the lord for people like
ElseAndrew and
Xikeon who can easily spot sh*t.

@stinky666, first question, how do I change the alternating mini profile information background color to be the same color for both, the lighter color instead of the darker?
Oct 26, 2013 18:12:44 GMT -5

Line 2, it says "mini-table-staff" change the word staff to member

@stinky666 how do I change the color of the text at the top right that says who is logged in? It's too hard to read.

This is fantastic. The placement of everything is a little weird, I think having all the buttons on the left (event the bottom ones) would've been a little more efficient, so I am not clicking near my taskbar to get to those links.

I mean Top/Bottom/New Threads/New Posts/ etc... It's hard to click on those since they are out of my sight and very close to my taskbar (if my window is full-screen). It would be nice if those were on the left, since there is a quite a bit of space on the left side, below the "main" navigation/menu.
Great icons, btw.

There's a lot of space for those with bigger resolutions yes. However, when logged in there are more buttons on the sidebar, plus many people like to add lots of custom menu items for stuff, so it was safer all around adding those all to the bottom bar, so it didn't cause problems.
And icons are actually easier than I thought tbh. Now I have the base for them too, will be much better for the future also lol.
I actually used "66" and "99" for the quote ones since I couldn't find a font to do the quotes like that, then I simply filled in the whole using a circular brush haha.

Just out of curiosity is there a way to have a regulary reply thread at the top and bottom if each thread?

Do you mean reply button in the thread? If so, there is already one:

Where at the bottom? On the bottom bar?

No, you know how you have a reply button all the way at the top of the thread? They'd like to know if it is possible to put another one right at the bottom of the last post in the threads.
Oct 30, 2013 1:20:38 GMT -5
They could just hit the quick reply button, then on the right side is a FULL REPLY, and that can be selected from anywhere on the page.

Yeah I mentioned that, It's a little hard to see and notice down there at the bottom LOL, that's why I was asking.

Ok so, you want a reply button to appear on the very last post, or do you want it simply below the last post, on the right side?
By last post, I mean the last on that page. So it'd show obviously on all pages

@stinky666, The "Like Function" with this theme isn't working properly, a member pointed it out. It will not show up that a topic or post is liked unless you refresh the page. Is there a fix for this?
