* Where plugins similar to the above really come in handy are the times your heavily customizing a style and some of the different parts of vBulletin share the same CSS yet you need to make changes to location or margins/padding more specifically yet via additional.css it moves the css on all pages not just the page in question. This way via plugin you can use conditionals in it as well, here's a semi-complex yet rough example:
PHP Code:
if (STYLEID == 70) {
if (THIS_SCRIPT != 'index') {
$switchbackground = '<style type="text/css">
#footer, .footer {
background:#FFFFFF url(images/main_content_BG_footerWhite.png) right top repeat-y !important;
border:none !important;
margin-top:0px !important;
margin-left:-10px !important;
/*margin-right:-10px !important;*/
-moz-box-shadow:none !important;
-webkit-box-shadow:none !important;
box-shadow:none !important;
}
.mainContent_containerBottom {
width:1020px;
height:10px;
margin-left:auto;
margin-right:auto;
/*text-align:center;*/
background-image: url(images/mainContent_BGbottomWhite.png);
background-repeat: no-repeat;
background-position: bottom center;
}
.forumlastpost.td {
margin-left:155px;
}
.threadstats.td.alt {
padding-left:10px;
}
.threadlastpost.td {
margin-left:-10px;
}
</style>';
} else {
$switchbackground = '<style type="text/css">
#footer, .footer {
background:#FFFFFF url(images/main_content_BG_footer.png) right top repeat-y !important;
border:none !important;
margin-top:0px !important;
margin-left:-10px !important;
/*margin-right:-10px !important;*/
-moz-box-shadow:none !important;
-webkit-box-shadow:none !important;
box-shadow:none !important;
}
.mainContent_containerBottom {
width:1020px;
height:10px;
margin-left:auto;
margin-right:auto;
/*text-align:center;*/
background-image: url(images/mainContent_BGbottom.png);
background-repeat: no-repeat;
background-position: bottom center;
}
.forumlastpost.td {
margin-left:60px;
}
</style>';
}
$template_hook[headinclude_bottom_css] .= $switchbackground;
}
The main css I needed to be different above was of course the forumlastpost td as shown here is the snippet IF you are on the script named index:
PHP Code:
.forumlastpost.td {
margin-left:60px;
}
