main-rollup.css??

[jefferis]

I have found several references to styles governed by main-rollup.css stylesheet but that css file does not exist in any search or list. I was able to change what I needed by using the blockrow stylevar but that was not visible in any inspector or search in the same place as main-rollup. This style shows up on the FAQ page.

Any ideas why it is listed and/or how you access it to modify it?

That file exists in your files, but the way to edit it is via the CSS templates.

Okay, so blockrow is what I should be searching for and not looking for the main-rollup.css file (which doesn't seem to be visible in the list of files whereas faq.css is, e.g. ) . Firefox inspector has changed the way it reveals things, so I have to look to the html tab and not the css ...

I cannot find where the style is that governs "powered by vBulletin" where all the stylevars for footer links are coded in white, but still it is dark on this page's footer:

When I inspect the page, it just says "main-rollup.css" I can't find this anywhere...
Help greatly appreciated.

Hey buddy this should do what you want:

Add the following to your additional.css in your corresponding template:

.footer_copyright a:link{
color:#ffffff;
}

replace the color of the link with your choice

thanks, the problem is that in vb 4.2, in style vars' total list, I cannot find the file additional.css anywhere. When I try to use the outdated Main.css, it no longer has a save option....

I'm kind of stumped...

I have already changed footer_link_color, footer_time_color, and footer_color to no effect.

I thought it might be covered by .shade, but changing that doesn't work either.

additional.css is not a stylevar, but a css-template. As any css-template, it's listed among the templates (template group css).

Forgive me please for not getting it, but when I search for "font" or "color" in templates, considering the broadest possible tag I see a list that does not include additional.css or main-rollup.css:

When I search for footer, in stylevars there are a ton that come up, but none that override the wrong color.

I can always create my own in vbulletin-chrome.css, but I am finding that often or many times when doing so, it doesn't override the more specific css that gives me difficulty.

What's more, vb-chrome.css already has: .footer a { color:{vb:stylevar footer_link_color}; }
.footer a:hover { color:{vb:stylevar footer_linkhover_color}; }

Both are changed in stylevars to #ffffff but are not displaying as such.

I never said you should search for anything. Just go to that template directly. It does exist, but it is empty. As the name implies, it is for additional css to override existing rules. Add what CAG suggested there.

Thanks, I've been doing vB mods for about 2.5 years now, but I hardly remember using this feature. vB has so many non-standard ways of editing css... I totally forgot about using the Edit Templates option...

I am so used to finding files directly on the server and editing them, vB just isn't the most user friendly...
