All you'd need to do is to go into your additional.css or forumhome.css and add a class for that ID. In the above case it would be:

li#forum15 {
    background: white;
}

Hey there!

When you refer to "forumbit" templated, are you referring to the CSS? I'd tried looking through it, but was unable to find anything that looked similar to what you'd mentioned. Upon inspecting the element, the category itself was titled as;

So, I added the;

li#forum101 {
    background: white;
}

To the additional.css, as well as the forumhome.css and ended up having no luck. I know I'm doing something entirely wrong, haha, as it just doesn't seem to add up. Could it have something to do with the title of the CSS? As in "li#forum101" should perhaps be "li#cat101"?

Edit: Upon trying it, I was given this result: http://i.imgur.com/X3UEmzu.png
