Glowing Usergroups
 

Couldnt find anything else like this on the forum and using it on my site at the moment for glowing names, seems to work everywhere but only in selected browsers, doesnt work on firefox or IE but will still display the color name.

Open up the ACP

Go to Styles+Templates>Edit Template>CSS Templates>additional.css

Add this code to the bottom of the template. Items shown in red can be changed, also can create more than one, so just copy and paste the code as needed and add as many as you like


.gold-shadow {
color: #999900;
font-weight: bold;
text-shadow: 0px 0px 7px #FF0000;
}


If you want to add another just copy and paste the same code and continue to add as many as you like.

Now to editing the code to suit you colors.

You can change the gold to whatever you want to call it but remember you will need this later for the selected group.
#999999 change this to your base color it will work on all browsers
#FF0000 change this to your glow/shadow color

For example mine is gold/red

Once you have changed the code go to Usergroups and edit the group you wish to change

In the Html markup add this to the first part

<span class="gold-shadow">

and this to the 2nd

</span>

Again change the gold to depending on what you named it in the CSS template

Enjoy

How it looks on my site

Also the sparkles on my site are another code, they wont happen unless you add another code and a gif image, this is only for the glow effect not sparkles, if you do want sparkles pm me and i will link you to my gif image and supply you with the code

Very nice, will try it out :D

Very very cool, is it possible to get rid of the sparkle effect or use other effects?

Oh wait, just noticed, this only works in Chrome?

done !

but it have a problem ! when i use this in posts show my username like this :

MR.ALIREZA not online

is this just for defult style and not working others ?!

tagged and thanks
looks nice

unfortunatly i cant read what the rest of the info says' it works on all themes as far as i am aware, as its only a simple class code and wont change anything other than the username

ahh right i see thats because you are using another code with it, possibly with </span> too in the userground and have the extra <" in your tag/html code, check your code or post it below and i can take a look

The star background images are cool.
Will you share. ;)

there are a lot of sparkle codes out there, if people want different colors let me know via color on this thread and i will create a new mod for you guys

i am just waiting on confirmation from an admin about the sparkle code, once they have agreed i will upload it to here

i tweeked the text-shadow a little bit to make it more of an outline then a glow i think it looks pretty cool :)

hi

is there any chance to get other effect?

what kind of effects? what do you have in mind that you want?

Yeah I posted Sparkling Usergroups here: https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=267000

thanks octavius that is exactly what i want

Can someone please tell me why this is not working on my forum? Does it matter if i have some code in the additional.css already? It just turns my usergroup colors grey whenever i try to do this, the weird thing is it worked for a second and then when i went to go add another usergroup color they both just stopped working, and now no matter what i do neither one of them will work

Do you have custom styles? Ensure that you are putting the code in all your additional.css for all your styles.
You can see it working on my site, I use it for my premium members. I changed the color and the code a bit.

Hmm this is pretty awesome :D

Sorry for grave-digging a little but when I implement this is works but breaks on the index page.

As you can see in the picture.

Thanks for any help you can provide.

EDIT: Found the issue... was this plugin https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=229146 messing with it.... anyway they both could be made to work together?

They work together replace " with ' in the span code for usergroups...

why not showing ini forumhome ?

Someone have the link ?

Link to what?

I'm sorry. Wrong post.

Lol, no problem. :) It happens to all of us.
