phpBB -- How do I edit phpBB to match my website?

I want to put my phpBB my Dreamweaver template

[alcheme]

How do I edit phpBB to match my website? When I change anything to the index.php or page_header.inc, it results in the errors:

---
Warning: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by (output started at /home/alcheme/public_html/sketchforum/index.php:7) in /home/alcheme/public_html/forum/includes/page_header.php on line 474

How can I edit the PHPBB index.php so it will match my websites look?

hi alcheme,

you need to look in the templates/SubSilver/ directory and edit files:

overall_header.tpl
overall_footer.tpl

to start with. just change little bits at a time so that you can go back it necessary. i'd start with a virgin install of phpbb to make sure it works perfectly before you start changing things.

an easy way to change the appearance without too much effort is to change the background images of the table rows with your own which match your site. you then have to edit the style sheet references to these graphics.

with a bit of trial and error you should be fine

hth :-)

Those error messages are telling you that you sent something, anything to the screen before sending the last header. This could be as little as a space of a hard return.

You need to make sure that any output gets sent after the last header. I don't know phpBB, but you could do a multi-file search (grep or something like that) for "header(" to see where headers are being sent from.
