Show Thread Enhancements - Moderated Posts Background Color

This little code will change the background color of your moderated threads/posts to make it easy to spot by you and your Mods.
It helps with busy forums.

I tested it on vB 4.2.0 but should work on older versions. I use postbit_legacy.

Install:

Step 1:

In postbit_legacy template look for:

PHP Code:


<div class="postbody"> 


Replace it with:

PHP Code:


 <div class="postbody <vb:if condition="$show['moderated']">moderated</vb:if>"> 


Step 2

Also, in additional.css, add this code

PHP Code:


.postbitlegacy div.postbody.moderated {background: #F5DA81;
} 


Change the background color to what you prefer

If you enjoy my mod, please consider marking it as "Installed". Any comments are welcome.

Does something like this exist for the thread list as well?

Try this in additional.css

.threadbit.unapproved .nonsticky {background: #FFCCFF;}

Anyway to use this in conjunction with this hack: https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=247094

So that the moderated posts have a different background color for mods and admins but look normal for the post author.

Exactly! I have both mods installed, but I want the background color to only change for Mods and Admins, but have the post look completely normal to the poster, even though nobody else can see the post.

I just tried this on my 4.2.2 forum and it didn't work. Did I do something wrong?

This worked for me...did you grab the closing brace of the CSS selector (the code to add to "additional.css")?

I thought I did but let me check again.

Nice of you to offer. If I can't get it going on another go-round I may hit you up. Thanks.

Ah, OK, I see where I screwed up. We use postbit, not postbitlegacy, and I didn't change that in the additional css code.

Works now, thanks!
