I have encountered a problem with the "Search in Templates" (Admin CP -> Styles & Templates) I am able to access it and enter text in the search field but whenever I press "Find" I get redirected to "Style Manager" - with no search results whatsoever =(

I wanted to use the search in order to find the $vbphrase[sticky_thread_prefix] so I could change the text into a green colour - since I am not able to search for it myself I wonder in which template am I able to find this variable?

also thnx for any help regarding the search, would be great if I could perform searches on my own ^_^

Anyone else ever encountered this problem?

If the search result in no matches, well then most likely the string you searched for does not exist.

Try searching for a shorter word or something that you are sure exists.

It happens to me but I'm running an older version.

ah, thnx searched for a phrase which I know exists in one of my custom templates and I got only my custom template showing up as a result :)

however, I am still looking for the place to edit my "Sticky:" text into another colour, I was able to locate the sticky in threadbit template but then Im pretty stuck again. I manage to change the colour on both the sticky text and the authors name but I only want to change the Sticky text

Original:
<td class="alt1" id="td_threadtitle_$thread[realthreadid]" title="$thread[preview]">

My changes:
<td style="color:red" class="alt1" id="td_threadtitle_$thread[realthreadid]" title="$thread[preview]">

my changes affect the entire td but since I do not know where the word "sticky" is inserted I cant change it's colour without changing the others...

help :rolleyes:

edit* nm, wasnt as simple as I would have guessed, I had to go into the td and locate all other elements such as the authors user name and edit there separate style tags

any way, thnx for the help - problem solved
