Please help: making alternating row background color in threadbit?

[Lynne]

Have you tried printing out the variables so you can see what is going on?

hmm, how do I do that
(My skill is limited)

{vb:raw thread.altrow} and {vb:raw thread.altclass}

Hi Lynne,

I put the following before Each thread title

1, {vb:raw $post['altclass'] } 2, {vb:raw thread.altrow} 3, {vb:raw thread.altclass}

and got the following for each row in the list (all same):

1, alt1 2, 3,

I think we are not getting anything for {vb:raw thread.altrow} and {vb:raw thread.altclass}


Thanks

Hey,

I ran into the same problem with the release of vBulletin 4 and after seeing this post I decided to figure out how to get this to work as I used it quite heavily in developing skins for vBulletin 3.x.

I have tested the code I came up with and works perfect in vBulletin 4. I have now posted a new helpful tip and trick document on my support forums for all of you to be able to use.

Thank you very much. It seems to work now! Hope you will build a vb4 skin soon (and keep me posted)

Also thanks to Lynne again!

Your very welcome New skins will start coming out I hope by this weekend, I wanted to cleanup a lot of the code to make things cleaner and a touch more like vb3 so i can convert all skins
