I think I will try and ask one question a day.

If this question is a no it is not a deal killer at all,

I will be moving from vB to XenForo with a custom theme.

I am curious if it is possible to have the XenForo tabs and breadcrumbs show through. Sorry if I am using wrong terminology. It would be nice if the theme was consistent.

Both XenForo and Contentteller have a completely different codebase so this is not easily possible. However, it is possible to using PHP scripts inside of the Contentteller templates to pull additional information from a XenForo database.

Yes, it is possible to change the entire Contentteller theme/layout to whatever you want. Every single HTML element is stored in templates.

I think a good example is  Legion Hardware. They ported their original layout to Contentteller using the templates.


This might be more of a XenForo question but I wonder if Contentteller could be imbeded into XenForo so that not just a mock up of Xenforos tabs and theme are showing through but the actual Xenforo ones.

I could well be interested in chipping in on such a project, to produce a common Contenteller & XenForo theme.


Well, I do 16 hour days so I need to space things out. Smiling Face

I'm prepared for the fact that it might not have the same look as my forums initially. But for the functionality it promises, I'd be willing to hire someone to make a custom theme for one, the other or both, to give it a unified feel.
And since I'm a giver Winking Face, I'd release them for free as a starting point for others to expand upon them.
