Miscellaneous Hacks - CUSTOM BUTTONS that look like your forum!

This MOD will allow you to create custom forum buttons (any text you want, that link anywhere) that look like your forum.

It's a pretty straight forward process, you just need to add an entry to your additional.css template and use the HTML provided to display the button.

Add this to the BOTTOM of your additional.css template.
Admincp > Styles & Templates > Style Manager > Your Style-Edit Templates > CSS Templates > Additional.css

.custom_forum_button {
	background: {vb:stylevar control_content_background};
	_background-image: none;
	-moz-border-radius: {vb:stylevar control_content_radius};
	-webkit-border-radius: {vb:stylevar control_content_radius};
	-moz-box-shadow: 0 3px 8px {vb:stylevar control_content_shadow_color};
	-webkit-box-shadow: 0 3px 8px {vb:stylevar control_content_shadow_color};
	font: {vb:stylevar control_content_font};
	color: {vb:stylevar control_content_color};
	padding: {vb:stylevar control_content_padding};
	border: {vb:stylevar control_content_border};
	display:inline-block;
}

Feel free to change .custom_forum_button to something else if you feel the need.

Now to display the button, use the following HTML

<a href="http://yourlinkhere.com/where-ever" class="custom_forum_button">Click my button</a>

Enjoy!

Would be nice, but it is not necessary, only take a couple of seconds to test it out.
