View Full Version : Mini Mods - Change forumrow color on mouseover


Gamempire
04-17-2010, 10:00 PM
To have a nice effect of interaction on mouseover of each rows of your forum, simply go to "Style Manager" ---> "Main CSS" ---> "vbulletin.css" and add at the end:


.forumrow:hover, .threadbit > div:hover { background: #F4F4F4 !important; }


You can change the color to whatever you want :)
Enjoy it.


EDIT:
Added 2 screenshots, you can obtain them with a different change of code:
- The first, more light, more reusable (my favourite): #F4F4F4
- The second, more bold and evidence: #999


The grey scale gose from FFF (white) ---> AAA ---> 999 ---> 000 (black)
Read more about hexadecimals colours (http://www.google.it/search?hl=it&q=hexadecimals%20colours&um=1&ie=UTF-8&sa=N&tab=iw)


Thanks to Da-Vinci for one screenshots :)


Edit: added the same effect also to the threadlist.

Here's a Screenshot from my site. I've used the colour #999999 as it doesn't clash with any of the other colours on my site, the colour choice is up to you and the skin you are adding this to.

Also i can confirm that this works with the latest version of Firefox.

This doesnt match up with 4.0.3 menus.

From the admincp there is no "manage styles" entry.

Under styles and templates there is "Style manager" but no manage styles.

Under Style Manager there is Main CSS but not CSS templates.

I suggest you be a little more specific and accurate on installation for those of us who are not VBulletin Geeks.

Thanks

That's the best way to get help isn't it, call the people who can help you Geeks lol.

It's really simple go to the style you want to edit and find CSS Templates, click that and from the new list that opens selct forumbits.css then add the code as described.

I know the instructions arn't very clear, but rather than insult people I recommend you read the whole thread and read the instructions 2 or 3 times, I'm no expert but from reading the whole thread and the instructions a few times, I managed to work it out, and if I couldn't have worked it out, I would have simply posted a polite post saying, "I'm not quite sure what it is you are saying can you explain the instructions a bit better?"

Lets face it the people who make these modifications, do it for free and they were not born with coding knowledge, they have learned the hard way, the same way I am trying to learn, rather than flame people why not give these guys a bit of respect for helping the average Joe like you and me make our forums look far better than an out of the box VBulletin installation.

Just a suggestion, take it or leave it.

This is one of those hacks that at first makes you go, "Oh, cool!".

However, leave it in place for a few hours and after a few trips to the main forum index page, scrolling down the page and having the forums flash on and off for hover and it changes to, "This is getting annoying".

i know this, if you exagerates with the change of colour.. however, if you put a light color, you wil not get annoying...like "#FFFFFF --> #F4F4F4" :)

It works fine. I added the code in the additional.css though. This way, I know what I added.
And for those who wish to do the same thing in the forum side bar, you add this with the color you like:

/* mouse over forum side bar messages */
.avatarcontent:hover { background: #FFCCCC !important; }

Simple edit to this so its transparent for the darker styles. Template edit is here.... (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?p=2045827#post2045827)Or just change the above code in this mod to this.

.forumrow:hover, .threadbit > div:hover { opacity:0.80;
-moz-opacity:0.80;
filter:alpha(opacity=80);
background: #333333 !important; } :up:

Style Manager" ---> "Main CSS" ---> "vbulletin.css

This is OLDDDDDD!!!!

It's not in Main CSS. Go to Style Manager, select your intended style, then choose Edit Templates. Then click on the CSS templates and then choose vbulletin.css. Then stick the code in there and it's done.

@hhumas, yes it works on 4.1.5 as it dos on 4.2.
