I am starting the modifications of a new vB3 forum. Can someone please tell me why the 2nd thru ? rows have a different background color in the 1st column? The 1st row looks ok.

I have made a few template changes, but I don't believe that I've changed 'ForumHome'. Any Ideas?

Thanks!

Here is a color map http://www.vbulletin.com/docs/html/main/color_maps_forumhome and here's the main reference http://www.vbulletin.com/docs/html/main/color_maps_intro

Thanks for the pointers Eric, but I've been using them. I guess I don't understand why the 1st column doesn't always have the same background color. I do understand why different icons are placed there, but not different backgrounds. From what I can find it's either alt1 or alt2, but it s/b consistent.

Thanks,

SIP main forums is a subforum under a level 1 category. the rest are level 1 forums with no parrent category

Thanks Zachery! Now that makes sense. However, I don't like the way it looks. How do I prevent this from happening?

Redesign that template, or just put them under some sort of category :)

Zachery,
Thanks again! I figured it out. I just removed the 'Parent Forum' from it.
