Hi to all, I have a problem with blue saint template because I cant make a postbit_legacy Vertical...i change that in ACP (Use Legacy (Vertical) Postbit Template) but nothing can anyone help me how to do that ?
 
First things first...

The back up:

Goto admincp >> Styles & Templates >> Style Manager

There you will see a list of styles you have installed with dropdowns to the right...

- from the BlueSaint dropdown choose "Edit templates"...

- you should now see a compressed list of the templates and a box called "Controls"...

- hit the << >> button in the controls box that will expand the list fully...

- Now scroll down to postbit_legacy and double click this will open it up...

- Ok so now from your desktop right click and create a new .txt file and copy and paste all the contents of the template to that .txt file and save it...

ok thats the back up done ;)

Now for the reverting:

Ok so now go back to you admincp and hit your browsers back button so you once again have the full list in front of you...

again find the postbit_legacy template but this time only click it once so its highlighted

@ the tp of the controls box you will see 3 options highlighted:
- Edit
- View original
- Revert

Guess what im gonna say now.....

Hey thats correct how did you know?!...you must be pychic...lol

hit the revert button and confirm.

Revert done!

Now check your forum to see how it looks, if its totally fluffed simply put back the code you saved earlier in the txt file ;)
 
Yeah....I did that........

The postbit_legacy look like this:
Code:

Code:

This needs to be right at the top (first line)
