Hi All,

I would like to colour code Thread Titles according to what forum they are posted in.

I have found this which is aimed at color coding threads from specific forumids in search results, will this work for forums in general and if so where do i need to put it?

<vb:if condition="$show['forumlink'] AND in_array($thread['forumid'], array(x,y,z))">style="color: #123456"</vb:if>

This only allows for thread types to be prefixed and color coded, I am wanting to color code thread titles different colors based on what forum they are in for example.

In the For Sale forum I would like all threat titles to be Blue

In the Wanted forum I would like all thread titles to be Red

etc etc

Just add a class to the title and use CSS.

class="title{vb:raw thread.forumid}"

Then define title1 (title2, title3, etc.) in the additional.css template

edit: Actually, adding the class may not be necessary as the forumid may be already there. A link to your site and the page you want to change the titles on would help.

Thanks Lynne,

Can you give me an example of how it should look

Here is the page I want all thread title to appear blue:
http://www.australianreptileforum.co...p?122-Reptiles

and here is the page i want all thread titles to appear Red:
http://www.australianreptileforum.co...php?124-Wanted

I guess the forumid isn't used as an id on the forumdisplay page. So, modify the FORUMDISPLAY template and add it as a class to the<body> tag - <body class="forum{vb:raw forumid}"> - and then in additional.css you can add something like:
.forum122 .threadbit a.title {color: blue;}
.forum124 .threadbit a.title {color: red;}

Thanks Lynne this worked great

Is there a way to make it show the threat colours regardless of where the thread is displayed, e.g in Searches or in a Master Forum where all threads are displayed?

I would think so, using a similar method to what I outlined. Without a link to the page, and a description of exactly what you want, I can't be more specific.

Hi Lynne,

This is the other site I am working on at the moment this is the Master forum using this mod:

https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=245839

All forum threads are displayed here I want the For Sale threads to show blue here and the Wanted Threads to show Red etc

I don't know that mod, but I am guessing you can modify it to put the forumid in there also and then do the CSS like I posted already.
