where to edit this?

[zero5854]

I wanted to know where to edit the red box BG to BLACK Or where to find the CSS/html so I can do this?

Thanks a bunch for any help!

Since that is a modification, you should be asking this question in the modification thread. They know the code for their hack and are the best users to be able to help.

actually this is a exact graphics question bc it is the backround of the post bit not the actual activity images

The impression I got from his question was that he only wants to edit the color of the background in that box. If that is the case, then he needs to ask in the modification thread. Or, if he posted the code around that area of his postbit, we would be able to make suggestions, but since I don't know the code for that mod, I can't guess about how it was coded and tell him how to change it.

OK to clarify I just want to edit the BG color where the NORMAL stats would go if I hadnt installed this mod

[Lynne]

That is the postbit_legacy template and that column with the username and stats and stuff is all class alt2. Here is the default 3.7.3 code here:
<tr valign="top">
<td class="alt2" width="175" style="border: $stylevar[cellspacing]px solid $stylevar[tborder_bgcolor]; border-top: 0px; border-bottom: 0px">

<div id="postmenu_$post[postid]">
<if condition="$show['profile']">
<a class="bigusername" href="member.php?$session[sessionurl]u=$post[userid]">$post[musername]</a>You may either change the class alt2 in the Main CSS page for that style, or you may edit the html directly where found above (I highlighted the line in red).

hmmm I tried editing Second Alternating Color in my main css which worked BUT it also change my topic cells on my index the same color. Sorry im not too good at this. Also I take it the other way u mentioned would probably do the same? Where in the red line would I add the BG color or change it?? Thanks

[Lynne]

<td class="alt2" width="175" style="border: $stylevar[cellspacing]px solid $stylevar[tborder_bgcolor]; border-top: 0px; border-bottom: 0px; background-color: yellow">


Change yellow to whatever you want.

[zero5854]

OK I went to template postbit legacy and only the first part of the line was there...

<td class="alt2" width="175"

I went to MAINCSS and found post bit legacy. where are you talking about?

Thanks

[Lynne]

What do you mean only the first part of the line was there? You don't see the whole line like I posted in post 6? If you don't, then your template has been modified from the default, so you'll have to add in the background property to whatever your line looks like.

thats bc Im using the Titanium skin. Heres my code for the post_bit legacy

add background-color: {whatever} to that line. That's it.
