Hi,

Wish I wasn't so picky on little details that most people don't even notice, but how do I remove that tiny gray arrow that pops up in the Section Widgets and Category sections? Version 4.1.5.

The arrow often times overlap the text (if it's too long). It's not exactly necessary to have anyway since I'm sure people are smart enough to not have an arrow tell them to click to open the content. Changing the layout can work, but 33%, 66% is not preferable. Maybe there's a way to customize the layout...like 30%, 70%?

So without changing the layout how would I remove the arrow? I tried searching for it to save the forum from getting cluttered, but no dice. I'm new to vBulletin so I'm scared if I can't go back to default so hopefully it's nothing too complicated. I attached photos to show what I mean.

Thanks! :)

By the way: Sad to hear Steve Machol is leaving. He really helped me a lot when I first got vBulletin. ;_;

This is from the vBulletin.com Home Page: https://www.vbulletin.com/forum/content.php

Can't figure out how to add rows to the text like in the picture:

Right now, the section widget allows only one row for me. Can't figure this out! >.<

The arrow is in the CSS:
tr.ygtvrow:hover td.ygtvcontent {
background: {vb:stylevar vbcms_navwidget_menuitem_hover_background.backgrou ndColor} url({vb:stylevar imgdir_cms}/hover_arrow-{vb:stylevar right}.png) {vb:stylevar right} 50% {vb:stylevar vbcms_navwidget_menuitem_hover_background.backgrou ndRepeat};
}So just write some custom CSS to remove it:
tr.ygtvrow:hover td.ygtvcontent {
background: {vb:stylevar vbcms_navwidget_menuitem_hover_background.backgrou ndColor} ;
}

Hi Lynne,

I'm a bit lost. When you say "is in the CSS" where should I look?

Tried: StyleVars > vbcm_navwidget_menuitem_hover_background

but can't go much futher. Probably not the right thing to do. Please tell me what I'm doing wrong.

Thanks and much appreciated!

Um, is it in the Style Manager > Main CSS ?

From my signature:
If I post some CSS and don't say where it goes, put it in the additional.css template.

From my signature:

Yayyyy!! I got that arrow removed! Woot! Thanks, Lynne.

Yeah, I knew about the signature but was a bit too scared to screw with it. In case others are interested in how to remove the gray arrow popup in the Section Widget:

AdminCP > Style Manager > Edit Templates > CSS Templates > additional.css > then paste:

tr.ygtvrow:hover td.ygtvcontent {
background: {vb:stylevar vbcms_navwidget_menuitem_hover_background.backgrou ndColor} ;
}

Woot! Annoying gray arrow pop up gone!

:D
