Category strip background image

[imported_MaDCaT75]

I know that you can change the category strip background image via the style manager in the admin CP but it also affects the forumdisplay category strip. How can I use a seperate category image for my forumdisplay?

edit the template and assign it a differnt class?

Faranth, we're here to help, not to tell people to learn this and that. What sort of help is that?

Doing it via the style manager will change every class with 'tcat'. So you will manually have assign it to forumdisplay. Now, have you already assigned an image background for the categories? And what version are you running?

Im having the same problem, i am using vb3 rc2

[Zachery]

ok we will make this very simple

view the source and copy the .tcat stuff

paste this into the aditional CSS deifinaton area

and rename it all tcat2 remove or change the image,

now where you want tcat2 to show up (as its the differnt modifed version) edit that specific template
