Change Thread Title Color for Specific Forums on Homepage · **Released**: 12-29-2012

This modification will allow you to change the color of the thread titles for specific forums on your forumhome in the last post by areas.

This mod is done via one simple template edit.

STEP 1 - Find the forumhome_lastpostby template via edit templates > Forum Home Templates.

STEP 2 - Find the code below

Code:

<a href="{vb:link thread, {vb:raw threadinfo}, {vb:raw pageinfo_lastpost}}#post{vb:raw lastpostinfo.lastpostid}"><img src="{vb:stylevar imgdir_button}/lastpost-{vb:stylevar right}.png" alt="{vb:rawphrase go_to_last_post}" /></a>

STEP 2 - Before it add

Code:

<vb:if condition="$forum[forumid] == XXX">
<font color="#XXXXXX">
</vb:if>

STEP 3 - After it add

Code:

<vb:if condition="$forum[forumid] == XXX">
</font>
</vb:if>

Replace both instances of XXX with the forumid of the forum you want to change the thread title color of.

Replace XXXXXX with the hex code for the color you want the thread title colors to be.

If you have multiple forums you want to change the thread title colors for on the homepage, simply stack additional vb:if conditions above and below just like above for each forum you want to change.

Like follows

Find the code below

Code:

<a href="{vb:link thread, {vb:raw threadinfo}, {vb:raw pageinfo_lastpost}}#post{vb:raw lastpostinfo.lastpostid}"><img src="{vb:stylevar imgdir_button}/lastpost-{vb:stylevar right}.png" alt="{vb:rawphrase go_to_last_post}" /></a>

Before it add

Code:

<vb:if condition="$forum[forumid] == XXX">
<font color="#XXXXXX">
</vb:if>
<vb:if condition="$forum[forumid] == XXX">
<font color="#XXXXXX">
</vb:if>
<vb:if condition="$forum[forumid] == XXX">
<font color="#XXXXXX">
</vb:if>

After it add

Code:

<vb:if condition="$forum[forumid] == XXX">
</font>
</vb:if>
<vb:if condition="$forum[forumid] == XXX">
</font>
</vb:if>
<vb:if condition="$forum[forumid] == XXX">
</font>
</vb:if>

Add this code to additional.css and it will change the background color of the header, the topic title, and the topic description

Simply add the forum ID and colors

Example:

Code:

#cat374 .forumhead {
	background: #2491BF !important;
}
#cat374 .forumbit_post .forumtitle a {
    color: #2491BF !important;
}
#cat374 .forumbit_post .forumdescription {
    color: #373737 !important;
}

Tested with vb4.2.5
