Requirements:
- Download the latest SVN package (http://trac.roundcube.net/trac.cgi/wiki/Dev_SVN)
- OR alter RC2 release (as explained in thread - thanks!!)
If there are any known problems with the 3 column layout not mentioned here http://roundcubeforum.net/forum/index.php?topic=1924.0 or then I want to know about them..

This theme is designed for those who want to use the 3 column layout and don't mind loosing the "Size" column in the email list (For the purpose of copying exactly how emails appear in Microsoft Outlook)
It allows for easy viewing of emails, replying, and so on and generally cleans up previous attempts.
You will need to include your own logo at this location:
/images/customise/logo.gif
Config requirements:
- $rcmail_config['list_cols'] = array('subject', 'from', 'date');
- $rcmail_config['preview_pane'] = TRUE;
Files can be downloaded here http://webmail.youds.com/trunk/roundcubemail/skins/default_3column.zip (http://webmail.youds.com/trunk/roundcubemail/skins/default_3column.zip) or see attached
Enjoy!

How to enable preview pane in RC2...
Ok, for enabling the preview pane I did the following:
1.) I connected to the database with phpMyAdmin.
2.) I selected the table "user".
3.) I edited the field "preferences" for the row carrying the desired user_id.
This field contains some sort of mapping. In this mapping you can read something like
"preview_pane";b:0
4.) I changed the value 0 to 1.
Done.

Hi
im use squirrelmail on second webmail server with "Squirrelmail Outlook" i see ur design some with http://sourceforge.net/projects/squirreloutlook (http://sourceforge.net/projects/squirreloutlook)
great job
-
yep, just upgraded from it!
-
Do you know if this works with RC2?
Thanks!
Ron
-
Yep, it works with all versions from the introduction of "preview_pane", onwards
-
Planned changes:
- Import address book from Microsoft Outlook / Outlook Express / Windows Mail / Thunderbird
- Export to CSV format
- Generally make it less like RoundCube and more like MS Outlook
Other suggestions welcomed..
-
I ran into some display bugs with firefox (last version).
I'm sorry I can't make a screenshot right now (i'll be back in 10 days) but i have some overlays problems when :
- you have subfolders
- an email have an attached file (the attachment.png picture)
Thanks
-
RC2 didn't enable preview pane (same as RC1). I've tried suggestions in other threads of how to get it working in RC2 with no luck.
Looks great tho, i'll leave it as my default skin :)
-
I've followed the steps in the first post but mine looks like this: http://img132.imageshack.us/img132/1043/rcdisplayproblemlm4.jpg :'(
Does anyone have any pointers?
EDIT: Just tried it in ie6 and it works perfectly :-[ - Now I wonder why it doesn't work in Firefox 2.0.0.8
-
Have you pressed CTRL+F5?? It looks like you have a different theme loaded in from your cache.
It's been tested with default settings in IE 7 and FF 1.5 + 2 (yes with the last update) - thanks for the heads up about IE6 though!
Shall look into the sub-folders issue soon, perhaps tommorrow - certainly next week, there is one or two other things that need addressing as well.
-
Looks good so far but one thing I've found is the email list dosent scroll so if you have more than a few emails in your inbox you cant see them all
-
hi ,
is there a howto install step by step ??? i really want to use this theme and i am using centos 4.4 with putty and direct admin
thanks :)
-
What I did to install, was in the roundcube folder you'll have one called templates. In there theres a folder called templates.... Just rename or delete that one and call this template 'default' then you should be sweet!

Updated: New icons for different mail types (new, read, replied) and fixes for email-list scrolling, user preferences, customised folders & attachment icon in IE7
http://webmail.youds.com/trunk/roundcubemail/skins/default_3column.zip
More to come
-
Hi,
Keep up the great work :) - This latest update fixed the issues I was having :D
-
no no, extract into your skins directory and then modify config/main.inc.php and set the skin_path
look for the entry
$rcmail_config['skin_path'] = 'skins/default/';
and set it to
$rcmail_config['skin_path'] = 'skins/default_3column/';
-
Looking at the code there it simply just changes the folder name so my instructions would technically work as well :)
-
I don't know if anyone can help me with this but the middle pane in Roundcube with the latest skin seems to make it make it almost appear closed so that you can't see the name/subject of the email, it is possible though to drag this back out, but is there a way to specify the width in the settings or something.
Heres a screenshot: http://img100.imageshack.us/img100/6092/rcdisplayproblempaneyf2.jpg
-
edit: this is in firefox (using 2.0.0.8) and in opera (using 9.24). It is not happening in IE (using 7)
Hey youds, just updated mine with your latest code and now, in the preferences, folders and identities I'm seeing some extraneous stuff:
'; //var_dump($_POST); ?>
Great work, and just out of curiosity, have you seen this skin with the preview window working in RC2? Just want to make sure before debugging this sucker. :D
Thanks,
Ron
-
Got preview pane working, my user preferences in the users table had preview_pane set to 0, since the RC2 Preference page doesn't show this preference, there was no way for me to change it, so I did it with a sql update.

What browser is that? exactly
-
Hi It's Firefox 2.0.0.8 running at on my screen resolution of 1024x768
-
When you last logged out that's the width you left it at.. ::)
..seems the theme is certainly cross-browser - thanks all.
-
Just had a look and mine certainly doesn't seem to be saving the width of it... Have you got any other ideas, same thing happens with ie6 on my computer as well.
-
I'll take a look but there is already a default width set.
anybody else having this problem?
-
Is it possible to tell me where to adjust the width, maybe mine has some strange setting there :-\
-
I implemented an extra feature in the download link (http://webmail.youds.com/trunk/roundcubemail/skins/default_3column.zip) which resizes the middle pane with JavaScript when it's value is below a certain point (based on the screen size, 1025 and above is 380px min width, below 1025 is 300px).
Hopefully that will fix your problem
-
Thanks for the update... I gave that a go and it seems it saves the pane width with ie6 but no Firefox 2.0.0.8 as if I drag it out, then logout then back in again it comes at that size I previously had, before going back to the tiny size again about half a second later. However this works fine with ie6 :'(
-
So that fixed ie6 but not ff?
-
yes, that's correct :'(
-
Try that :o
-
That did it :) - Thanks very much!
-
Planned changes:
- Import address book from Microsoft Outlook / Outlook Express / Windows Mail / Thunderbird
- Export to CSV format
- Generally make it less like RoundCube and more like MS Outlook
- Include support for preview_pane = off
- New icon pack
-
Well keep up the great work... Looks like you've got lots ahead of you :)
-
Hi, lov'n this skin! Is there any way you could make the delete key (and shift-delete) work in the preview pane. As in, if I scroll the preview pane and then hit del, the message doesn't delete. It only works from the mail list pane.
-
Great skin.
I cannot get it working in RC2. Is the ability to enable preview pane only available in SVN versions?
Anyone who has got this working on RC2 care to share how they got it working?
-
I believe the preview pane is only available in the SVN versions.
-
Preview pane can be done in rc2 it took a while for me to figure out what my particular problem was, but you'll find this thread helpful:
http://roundcubeforum.net/forum/index.php?topic=2280.0
-

It's work on my RC2. Just need to activate the preview pane
-
Lot more to come, I spent most of last weekend working on the actual design of the theme; see attached for a sneak preview (hope you all like it!!)
Most of the work has been done on the Email section only though, I want to make some bigger structural changes to the other pages (too much wasted space on the right, thinking of bringing the folder list into all of those pages so the user can navigate back to the email page for the folder they want to view)
It's not even IE7 compatible yet though, and I haven't even blended the .gif's with the new background colour, so it'll be a while before the next update, a week or two at least. I've done enough for now anyway, just need to get it looking better and add a few features then I'll post the update. :P
Edit: I'll be making it "language proof" and adding text labels too, so if any one finds that there are problems with foreign languages not fitting and they can't shorten the wording any further then it'd be good to know where I may have problems before I do any major changes. eg. if there is a commonly used word that is short in English but is long in a foreign language, let me know!!!
-
oww, ahhh, looks very nice :o
Any chance of putting a trash can next to Junk and Trash on the folder navigator (so that I don't have go to the folder and then click empty)
Also, empty doesn't work from the Inbox, I have a few accounts that get nothing but junk mail (I give it as my junk mail address) and it stinks to have to go through all the email and delete it by hand. I have 1 account that has about 2000 pieces of junk email in the Inbox.
Thanks!!!!
-
Those "Folder" links (Empty & Contact) have never worked for me, not even with the standard theme, don't know anything about them ???
Will probably just remove them to be honest, wouldn't want someone deleting their entire account by accident ;)
-
Really, they work for me from Junk and Trash, PLEASE don't remove them, at least from Junk and Trash.
-
They don't work from the main pane though, wondered what they did!!
Will remove them from the places they don't do anything, pointless having them there.
You do know you can shift and ctrl to select multiple mails for deletion and moving etc?
-
Yep, I knew that, but when you have pages worth of spam, Empty deletes everything instead of having to go page by page.
-
Would like some feedback on the actual look of the theme if anybody is interested
-
The theme looks absolutely stunning :) - Can't wait to use it myself ;D
-
:D ;)
-
looks sweet youds. I'll have to check it out myself.. I have an older version installed, and I'm still playing with RC mods.. so it may be a bit.. but looks awesome.
-
It looks GREAT!! Can't wait to use it.
Keep up the good work!!! ;D ;D ;D
-
It seems to me that the reply to sender and the reply to all doesn't seem to be working as the emails are not added in the new message. Any ideas?
-
That's not a theme problem, it would be a RC problem
With that said, they work for me?
-
The new theme is looking absolutely awesome - can't wait to use it.
IMHO this great skin is a very nice contrast to the many odd looking standard Roundcube installations!
Keep up that great work!
-
Ya it appears to me that as long if you are using the preview pane. The reply and reply-all doesn't work properly.

Try removing all the files from your server (to do with this skin) and re-upload them
I sometimes get problems with FileZilla & ZoneAlarm on the same machine, it scans the transferred files and can cause disruptions.
Usually removing the suspect file and re-uploading it solves the problem.
If this isn't the case do let me know
In response to the IE6 problem, it seems the width is not being set for the mail display area, if this is not the only problem please say.
-
I am still having some trouble... I have RC2 and while the theme works I just cannot get my preview pane working - I see it in User Preferences and it's set to "on" (I can't change it) and I've made modifications to func.inc and main.inc.php like the RC2 thread suggested.. but it just isn't happening.. Using IE7
Any ideas? I attached the two files in question just in case I was missing something... I don't think there is anything I can "restart".. I am simply running the PHP code on a hosted site.
Thanks in advance for the help.
-
I guess I had a similar problem.
Modifications in the user preferences did not seem to work. Therefore, I modified the corresponding preferences for the preview pane directly on the data in the database. There is a flag for the preview pane which initially is set to 0 and must be changed to 1.
Best regards
Gendhor
-
You should be following this advice:
http://roundcubeforum.net/forum/index.php?topic=2280.0#msg9295
Kind regards
-
youds - Yeah I saw that thread, and I have made those code changes.. still no dice. I attached my main.php.inc and func.inc to my first message. I also tried deleting all records in the cache table in the database.
Gendhor - Where is this? I looked at all of my records and didn't see anything in any of the tables that looked like the preview pane flag. Can you elaborate?
-
Once you've solved the problem (have you seen this too? http://roundcubeforum.net/forum/index.php?topic=2280.0#msg9123) please could you descriptively describe the steps taken so that other users can benefit from your experience and I'll edit the first post with your words.
-
Ok, for enabling the preview pane I did the following:
1.) I connected to the database with phpMyAdmin.
2.) I selected the table "user".

"preview_pane";b:0
4.) I changed the value 0 to 1.
Done.
This is surely not the preferred way in dealing with this but, nevertheless, it worked for me.
Best regards
Gendhor
PS: I'm pretty sure that I read about the solution presented above in this forum, beforehand.
-
Done
Plan on doing the update fairly soon so watch this space..
-
Cool..
That worked great!
Don't suppose there is a way to word wrap the preview, so as not to have to scroll left and right?
-
That would be possible but text-only emails are wrapped at 70 characters so if we wrap the preview pane at 60 characters (to prevent the scrollbar), then the line breaks from the email would be at 10 characters into the second line, eg.
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipisicing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt
ut labore et d
olore magna aliqua. Ut enim ad minim veniam, quis nostrud exercitation ullamco laboris nisi
ut aliquip ex e
a commodo consequat. Duis aute irure dolor in reprehenderit in voluptate velit esse cillum
dolore eu fugia
t nulla pariatur. Excepteur sint occaecat cupidatat non proident, sunt in culpa qui officia
deserunt mollit
anim id est laborum.
etc.
What I can try to do is increase the percentage size of the preview pane to an absolute minimum of 70 characters, but that will just decrease the amount you have to scroll on smaller screens.
The obvious solution would be to switch to the horizontal preview pane in the next update, which would allow for a wider reading area on smaller screens.
-
Using this theme I have a problem with [cc] and [bcc].
What am I supposed to see, when I click on [cc] for instance when replying to all recipients of a mail that carries some CCs?
I expected to see an input box titled [cc] in which I see all CCs, is that correct?
Rather, using Firefox 2.0.0.11 and roundcube RC2 nothing changes / happens. What am I doing wrong?
Best regards
Gendhor
-
Ah, I see what you mean - well spotted
Go to skins/default_3column/templates/ and replace "compose.html" with the file that is attached
I'll be sure to remember that this needs fixing in the next update as well.
-
Great, now it looks as expected. :)
Thanks a lot for the quickfix
Gendhor
-
This has been mentioned before; hadn't actually seen the problem though.
Thanks for your input O0
-
The preview pane doesn't look quite right in Safari 3.0 / Mac. I've screwed around with mail.html and mail.css to no avail. Any possible fix? Screenshot attached.
(And it works fine in Firefox / Mac.)
-
i am still trying to find a fix for the '; //var_dump($_POST); ?> in user preferences using firefox. any ideas on that either? it was mentioned earlier in this thread. but i didn't see it resolved.

No idea why that could be happening, if the iframe is the right height and the content is loaded into that, then it should display the content at whatever height it desires.
I shall surely take a look for you though.

Hi. Firstly, thanks for your great work; I've been searching for a long time for a decent web client to host.
I have an issue with the mail list in Firefox (and IE7); the date and size columns overlap and clash. Is this a configurable setting change?
Thanks
(http://www.fairhursts.net/roundcube.jpg)
-
Yes I had noticed this, it seems to be there when importing from SquirrelMail, or at least that's when I noticed it. The timestamp is different and much longer
I will put overflow hidden on the time filed however as many of you may know IE doesn't support this feature correctly. You wouldn't believe the trouble I had trying to get the subject line to not wrap down into the next email on the list.
I will figure a way rest assured, are new emails coming through like this?
-
Yes - this affects all emails in all folders, including newly received.
Thanks again
-
Got the mod working on my server and it works and looks great on IE and Firefox just from the instructions on the first page. Had to make a logo though but no big deal. Now, is there any way to have the preview pane below the inbox list? I know, picky, picky. just checking.

After changing the 'h' to 'v' in mail.html template to get a vertical layout i get the following layout as seen in the attachment.
Is there a solution to it ?
-
Anyone tried this with 0.1 stable?
-
Just updated to 0.1-stable. Seems to work fine by now. :)
-
Is it possible to have the reading pane on the bottom?
-
Horizontal view is planned for the 1.0 release as an optional change when the page has loaded, then this will be remembered for the rest of the session. Unless I see an easy way to store this information in the users account without having to modify the database structure or require permissions be set on the file system.
Also planning to include a patch that will allow users to import addresses from Outlook / Outlook Express / iCal / Thunderbird
This will all be sorted a.s.a.p. - so busy at the moment and it's not ranking well on my list of priorities!!!
-
Oh and, I've since moved to Mac so I can no test everything through multiple operating systems (useful tool: http://www.vmware.com/download/fusion/) and you'll be pleased to know I found no problems in IE6 (can't login with the standalone version as it doesn't support cookies), Safari or in Firefox for Mac / Linux (Ubuntu).
All good news!!
-
Minor updates, see first post.
-
Minor updates (again)!
