I have read some posts about this on this Forum.

I have not found a single PHPBB2 skin that works with the "Forum"-template of MKPortal.
Can anyone direct me to one, so i can try it out? :)

Good question. Unfortunately there is no list of phpBB skins that look good with MKPortal. The default skin should look correct but it was so long ago when we worked on skin importing that I can't remember which skins I used to test it.

You might try a couple of your favorite phpBB skins with this alternative import code and see if they look better. There is also an short explanation about the difficulty of importing phpBB skins on that topic.

Thanks for a quick and good answer.

It now seems to be working smooth (almost).
My problem is the "User" and "Pass" box at the main site.
Text in this box is white, and so is the text on the "Login"-button.

Iwe tried to edit both the MKPortal Forum-template and the PHPBB-template, replacing any white text with blue to test. I couldn't find the place where this is defined.

Got any tips?

I will need to see the actual site page to help with specifics. You can post the URL here or email it to me through my Contact Us form at the top of the page.

I found it, i just had to edit the Forum-template-css, and add a few lines from the PHPBB-template CSS. :)

Case closed :)

Great. Glad you found it. Sorry I didn't reply sooner but I had quite a busy weekend.
