How about what to edit to get the around text in footer color? Yours is black by default it is light gray? Around the purple color not in it.

I've forgotten, gimme a little bit to find it again and I'll list it too.

Edit,

doc_backgroundcolor (blue) is the area around the main forum to enclude the background behind the banner
body_background (red) is the inner area that is around your categories from the navbar down to right above the copyright text

Examples

I changed the doc_backgroundcolor so you'd get an idea of what the body_background is.

LOL now I feel stupid should of saw that one. Thanks, I have a lot more to do as well can't seem to figure out how to remove the little 1px light blue border around the thread header when you click on it to see the threads. Plus the replies body color and the last posted by body color. Those are light blue by default as well.

That is hard coded I was told by another member and been a bug report on that. I found a few more using this as a helping guide too.

to change that bit you have to :-

go to styles edit templates -> threadlist.css

In threadlist.css, you have these lines:


.threadbit .alt {
background: #f2f6f8 {vb:stylevar threadbit_background.backgroundImage} {vb:stylevar threadbit_background.backgroundRepeat} {vb:stylevar threadbit_background.backgroundPositionX}{vb:style var threadbit_background.backgroundPositionUnits} {vb:stylevar threadbit_background.backgroundPositionY}{vb:style var threadbit_background.backgroundPositionUnits};
}


Just change #f2f6f8 to what ever you want the colour to be :)

Is this a global setting, or one that can be set individually for each Style?

What are you referring to?

Hi,
I was referring to the setting referred to in the previous post:

to change that bit you have to :-

go to styles edit templates -> threadlist.css

In threadlist.css, you have these lines:


.threadbit .alt {
background: #f2f6f8 {vb:stylevar threadbit_background.backgroundImage} {vb:stylevar threadbit_background.backgroundRepeat} {vb:stylevar threadbit_background.backgroundPositionX}{vb:style var threadbit_background.backgroundPositionUnits} {vb:stylevar threadbit_background.backgroundPositionY}{vb:style var threadbit_background.backgroundPositionUnits};
}


Just change #f2f6f8 to what ever you want the colour to be :)

In other words: if I choose a color setting in threadbit.css, will this setting affect all styles, or can an individual color on a per-style basis be defined using this solution (read: by editing the value in threadbit.css)?

It will only change the color for that template or style. You will have to do this for every threadbit.css for any other styles you create until it is fixed.
