A DISTINCTIVE DARK XENFORO EXPERIENCE​

Velqeris is a premium dark XenForo style by Eggy, designed to give communities a strong modern identity while keeping the familiar XenForo structure and usability intact.

Built around a deep navy foundation with carefully balanced violet, purple and restrained cyan accents, Velqeris introduces a clear visual hierarchy across forum lists, categories, navigation, sidebars, discussions and mobile layouts.

Rather than simply changing XenForo’s colours, Velqeris gives key areas of the interface their own recognisable presentation through structured rails, refined borders, layered surfaces, responsive layouts and optional motion effects.

The result is a style that feels distinctive without making XenForo unfamiliar to use.

DESKTOP EXPERIENCE​

Structured Forum Hierarchy​

Velqeris gives the forum index a more deliberate structure with numbered forum rows, refined spacing and clearly separated content areas.

Forum titles, statistics, latest-post information and category sections remain easy to scan while gaining a more polished visual identity.

Signature Rail System​

Purple and cyan rails, junctions and accent details create one of Velqeris’s defining visual characteristics.

These elements help distinguish categories, forum nodes, sidebars and active interface states without overwhelming the content itself.

Integrated Sidebar Styling​

Member information, latest threads, widgets and supporting content are visually connected to the main layout through matching rails, borders and surface styling.

The sidebar feels like part of the overall design rather than a collection of unrelated blocks.

Refined Navigation​

Navigation and secondary navigation areas use restrained dark surfaces, active-state accents and carefully balanced spacing to complement the rest of the Velqeris interface.

---

MOBILE EXPERIENCE​

Purpose-Built Responsive Layout​

Velqeris includes dedicated mobile styling rather than simply shrinking the desktop presentation.

Forum nodes, discussions, navigation and metadata are reorganised for smaller displays while preserving the style’s visual hierarchy.

Enhanced Thread Presentation​

Important, sticky and active discussions receive clearer visual separation through accent rails, status indicators and refined content spacing.

Clear Thread Information​

Prefixes, titles, authors, replies, views and status information remain easy to identify without overcrowding the mobile interface.

Dedicated Mobile Branding​

Velqeris supports a separate mobile logo asset, allowing the compact header to use a dedicated symbol while desktop visitors see the full Velqeris wordmark.

---

CUSTOM BRANDING​

Velqeris now includes native branding controls directly within XenForo Style Properties.

Administrators can customise the style without manually editing templates or CSS.

Available branding controls include:

• Desktop logo
• Mobile logo
• Desktop banner
• Optional mobile banner
• Banner position
• Banner sizing
• Banner overlay
• Header branding mode
• Custom header text

Velqeris includes its own bundled default logo, mobile symbol and banner, so the style has a complete identity immediately after installation.

These assets can be replaced at any time with your own community branding.

---

NODE ANIMATIONS​

Velqeris also includes optional forum node entrance animations controlled directly from Style Properties.

Available effects include:

• Off
• Fizzle
• Fade In
• Fade Up
• Slide In
• Scale In
• Rail Sweep
• Scan Reveal

Additional controls allow administrators to adjust:

• Animation speed
• Node stagger
• Accent flash behaviour

Animations are designed to remain fast and subtle rather than interfering with normal navigation.

Users who prefer reduced motion are respected automatically.

The Velqeris Companion add-on is included with the product download and works alongside the style to provide Velqeris branding integration, optional branding overrides, bundled default assets and supporting presentation features.

There is no separate purchase required for the companion add-on.

Install the companion first, then import the Velqeris style through XenForo’s normal Style Import system.

Velqeris is designed for communities that want a dark, polished and recognisable XenForo presentation while retaining the usability and structure administrators and members already know.
