Background color of posts (vb5)

[toviv]

I have looked and looked and apparently its not as it was in vb4. Where can I change the color of the background of posts. Its a baby blueish color and driving me insane lol.

it used to be like postbit color or what not, but it isnt now. haha.

Try adding this to your css_additional.css

.b-post--first .b-post__body {
    background: none repeat scroll 0 0 red;


}

And change red as desired.

Where and how do you insert css_additional.css?

Thanks in advance

This is for vB5, you also asked questions in vB4, which are you running? Because this code will not work in vB4.

I am running VB 5.1.8

Ok, then you need to add the code in your ACP under the templates section, in the css_additional.css template.

Do you know how i can alter the width of the text area? (throughout the forum) in vB 5.1.8 off course

That baby blueish is by default is the first post in the topic.
It has stylevar no need to overwrite css.

style manager> style name> style variable editor> search stylevar> thread_starter_background

other than first post - postbit reply background is: thread_reply_background
the user info on the left is: Postbit Background
