How to install a php-bb2 skin...

[djbosak]

1. You should have a phpBB2 board system installed on your server. Download it from http://www.phpbb.com/ if you don't have one. The installation process is quite simple. Decompress the phpBB2 archive to a local directory on your system and navigate to /docs/ folder. README.html and INSTALL.html files will walk you through the basics on installing the forum software.

2. When you have a phpBB2 board system installed, unpack the template package. There will be a folder named FORUM_XXXX (where XXXX - is a four digit number). This is a phpBB2 theme. Place the files in their own directory (FORUM_XXXX) in the /templates/ directory inside your phpBB2 directory. If your server is online somewhere, then you will first need to unpack it to a directory, then upload it to your server. Do not rename FORUM_XXXX directory.
3. Go to your administration control panel.

4. Under "Styles Admin", click on the link "Add"

5. You will find a list of styles that are present in the /templates/ directory but that have not been installed to your forum. Behind every style, you see an "Install" link. Click on that link to install the style.

6. If you have done this for all the styles that you wanted to install, then have fun! They're now available to your users, or to you to set as the default style in General Admin => Configuration.
