My first theme release. Hm
Do not expect the perfection.
DANCA is a simple, clean and modest theme for VanillaForums. Originally made for FBB, a fishing community I’m working on.
Coolest feature: Fixed header. In my opinion, this feature is a MUST for a VanillaForums theme.
I hope you like it and enjoy using it. There are still things to improve with this theme, things I will try to fix/implement when time is by my side.
Known bug: #Fixed Header. Installed on a windows server it behaves normally. However, with linux the header behaves differently surfing with IE. I’m still trying to find out why.
Optional design dependencies:
- Voting plugin by Todd
- IndexPhotos plugin by Lincoln
- Vanillicon plugin by Todd

Update 29.01.2012
- DANCA v1.2 Questions & Answers
I’ve been asked why the voting plugin displays only Views & Comments. Some people would want to use the theme for a Questions & Answers project. So, Here it is, DANCA with complete redesigned Voting plugin.

Beautiful theme. I specially liked the way you added votes and notification on the sidelines of main content.
Can you tell me how did you ad featured video on the bottom of the sidebar and which tool did you used to capture scrolling screenshot of the entire page.
I will add this soon to my forum. Again, thanks for such beautiful theme.

Hi @Abhishek, I’m glad you like it.
Adding stuff around your forum is very simple with Pockets plugin.
To add a featured box to the sidebar, install pockets, then Add a pocket.
Name your pocket, and add the following code inside Body area: (follow the link bellow)

- Select location : Panel
- Repeat : After
You are done!
As for full page screenshot I used Webpage screenshot, extension for Chrome (http://www.webpagescreenshot.info/)
Just search google for “full page screenshot” you’ll find a bunch of them to fit your browser.
Good luck to you
