How to make the header background transparent?

I was going to create a new thread but I have been searching for hours on how to do this for VB 4.2.3 but this code does not work.. i have tried dozens of other websites and codes.. nothing... any help?

If you want to make the header background transparent in a particular style, then edit the Stylevar "header_background" in the "Header" section of the Stylevars.

If you wish to quickly apply this change to all of your styles, then add a plugin hooked at "parse_templates" with the code:

PHP Code:


		
			
$template_hook['headinclude_css'] .= '<style>.above_body {background: transparent !important;}</style>';

Nice touch Mark! I was just going to add the css but you added the hook to change all themes at once. :)

If you want to remove the white wrapper from the body, then alter the plugin I posted to read:

PHP Code:


		
			
$template_hook['headinclude_css'] .= '<style>body, .above_body {background: transparent !important;}</style>';

I added that.. but nothing happened.. was it suppose to affect all existing styles?

your code is for the entire wrapper right?.. is there a way to edit the HEADER wrapper only? I am trying to get something like this one...

What I change those elements using Firebug, I get what I think you are after. I would have to come to your site with admin access to see what's going on. If interested, send the login credentials to an admin account to me via PM.

Thank you so much man!! Honestly I have tried to get this done in the past 2 to 3 days and it was not working. I had fire bug open as well and like crazy trying to edit/remove and change the divs but now thanks for that small bit of code man!! I gotta study more of this stuff! haha:up:

Much appreciated!

Cool method, Mark! but I would go with editing on template, using a hook in this case can increase handles for the forum.

If you've got a large number of styles and you want the change applied to all, this is easier to add.
