PT Color Titles by Status
 

Description

With this mod, you can color the background for each issue with the color of your choice. This mod works in issue list bit and in search results.

The version 1.1.0 comes in this new way by suggestions of Floris in his IRC Chat. He suggests to me to add a color picker and to have a better way to edit colors without knowing status IDs.

The version 1.2.0 adds the support for vBulletin 3.7+ and works only for Project Tools 2.0.x. It adds the possibility to allow each status color for each project or not. For each status, you can select projects for which the color is active.

Enjoy ;)

Looks great.

Any chance you can port this hack, so even threads can also be colored in forumdisplay?

I already have this, but as a part of a large product, i will see if i can do something.

can you tell me where to get the large product and what all it does,sounds good.
installing this for now

nice hack i will try thank you

A personal mod which is not available publicly (used on a special forum). I have some time to develop this until monday ;)

I would love to use this mod if it didn't require manual code changes to the core Project Tools php files. Is there not a way to accomplish this with plugin hooks (to add/pull color selections for each status) and template hooks (to apply each color as an in-line style or appended class name for each row)? I know that is a pretty complex change request.

It just seems like this mod would have to be reapplied every time you upgrade Project Tools.

Regardless, thanks so much for your efforts with this mod.

I have a couple of questions:

1. Can we pick which forum the modification applies to? (I mean- can I have this mod work in only specific forums).

2. Can we assign this to specific users? (Like only mods/admins).

great! installed.

Little bug, missing table prefix in install code ;)
