Alternating Post Background Color
 

One person posts, then the background color of the post of the first person to reply is slightly darker or lighter, then it switches back to the original shade on the next reply, and so on and so on. VB 4.2.2

How do I implement this feature?

A quick and dirty method would be to go to your postbit template (whichever you are using), and locate the line:

And change it to:

Change "#FFDDDD" to the background color you want for odd numbered posts and change "#DDFFDD" to the background color you want for even numbered posts.

Thank you

I hate hacking templates, so I have developed a simple mod that will allow you to turn the feature on/off, use HTML color pickers for the background colors, and select which styles the product is active in. Undo the edits you may have done to your postbit templates before installing. :)

To Install:

• Download the attached .xml file.
• Follow AdminCP -> Plugins & Products -> Manage Products -> Add/Import Product.
• Click on "Choose File" and browse to the product .xml file that you downloaded.
• Click "Import."
• You MUST enable the product in the settings before it will function.
• Configure the remaining settings to your liking. Each setting has a detailed explanation of its use.

Thank you very much.:)

Stolen :D

* Can this have a feature to select in which forums we like to take effect ?
* Options to import with the "Background Color" and a background image to.
in the two exist options of colors if we want ?

Very nice :)

Okay, I have added a setting for active forums and a setting for active threads. :)

Very kind of you Mark, thanks.

I have added settings to include background images. For example, if you wish to tile the background of odd-numbered posts with an image, you would enter something like:

url(images/misc/checkerboard.png) repeat

Into the setting field titled "Background Image for Odd Numbered Posts". Note that the url of the image is not enclosed with quotes.

Very kind of you Mark, thanks. :)
