vbWiki Pro Wiki Page Layout E-mail
This page describes the layout for wiki pages generated by vbWiki Pro, as well as some CSS details.

The screenshots used in this article were taken from our demo wiki. vbWiki Pro uses your forum's header, footer, colors, images, etc. You do not need to make any customizations to obtain this behavior. However, if after installing vbWiki Pro, you would like to fine tune the way vbWiki Pro is generating the pages in your wiki, you can do the following:

  • To change the layout, wording, content, etc. Go to your forums' Admin CP > Styles & Templates > Style Manager, and edit the template named vbWiki_MAIN.
  • To change colors, borders, fonts, etc. Modify the CSS settings in main.css located in your wiki's skins/vbwikiskin directory. Notice that style overrides to fix incompatibility with certain browsers (mainly Internet Explorer) are found in the same directory in different files. For instance for Internet Explorer 7, the overrides (fixes) are found in IE70Fixes.css.
The following image shows the main elements of wiki pages generated by vbWiki Pro (click to open full size version). As mentioned above, the style shown is from our site's installation, in your forums' it should look just like your forums.



Let's say that you would like to change the colors of the Wiki's Personal Links to black. To accomplish this, simply add the following at the end of your main.css:

#p-personal a { color: black }

Changing the CSS styles in these files you can customize the most elements in your wiki pages will look like.
