How to do this...

[Radon3k]

Ok I know it's been posted before but b/c I'm going crazy and losing my mind, I can't seem to find it...There is a mod hack somewhere that creates a space between posts..Somethin like this:

Example 1: Normal vB.

Post1: blah blah blah
Post2: blah blah blah

Example 2: What I'm trying to do:

Post1: blah blah blah

Post2: blah blah blah


Any ideas? Thanks! :)

I think in the postbit at the end of the table you just add a <br> or <p> tag.

[Radon3k]

There was a lot more to it than that from what I remember...

[Radon3k]

haha..it did work...I don't believe it...Thanks mate! :)

[Radon3k]

Now how about to get it to stay the same bg color?

[Lanigironu]

Just set both the first and second alt colours to be the same.

[Radon3k]

Yes, but where is this to be found?

[FWC]

Modify styles in the Admin CP.

[Radon3k]

Ok modify what part of the styles in the Admin CP?

[Radon3k]

Ok I guess what I'm asking then, cuz I see what you're saying...Is how to keep the style properties the same as they are now, but have ONLY the altering table colors of new posts change...Make sense?

bgcolor="$post[backcolor]

with { firstaltcolor } or { secondaltcolor }

Remove the spaces, of course.

Ok well I decided that it looks better on the forumhome with only one alt color....thanks! :)

Also, I'm trying to get a gradient filled category strip bg color but I'm not sure where to put the "background="/forum/images/catbar.gif" tag....Any ideas? I didn't wanna start a new thread for this...Thanks :)

#B0B0B0" background="{ imagesfolder }/catbar.gif

Replace that first color with your current color and remove the spaces inside the braces.

or pu all the image code with NORMAL html in the template, but then it is no variable.

but it works!

[Admin]

Damn dude you got loads of questions! :D

[Radon3k]

FWC- Yes, I know that's the code, but in what template do I put this?

FireFly-Yes I do, but I figure the more I ask, the more I learn. Of course I don't ask unless I've tried to do it on my own first :)

[Radon3k]

Ok it works...Thanks, haha..yet another ? for ya since you seem to be helping me out so much (And it's greatly appreciated ;)) How do I do the same thing I did for the posts (spacing them out that is) but for the categories on the main page?
