https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/vborg_mis...hreadid=214643

0. PSD

You must edit PSD Files (only two files) with PhotoShop.
Replace the red color by color of your posts (class alt1)

I'm not willing to modify background colors for each member.



1. Upload

Upload images in the zip into "images/misc"



2. CSS

ACP >> Styles & Templates >> Styles Manager >> Choose a style >> All Style Options (Go) >> At the bottom : Additional CSS Definitions, in the second box :


Enter:

.quote_body {
    padding: 3px;
    background-color: #F8F8F8;
    color: #444;
}
.quote_global-quote { background: #FAFAFA url(images/misc/q_quote.png) top right no-repeat; }
.quote_global {
    background-color: #FAFAFA;
    margin: 3px 20px 3px 20px;
}

.quote_head, .quote_head div, .quote_head span, .quote_foot, .quote_foot div, .quote-foot span {
    margin: 0;
    padding: 0;
    overflow: hidden;
    line-height: 1px;
    font-size: 1px;
    height: 5px;
}
.quote_head, .quote_head div {
    background: url(images/misc/bg_quote1.gif) top right no-repeat;
}
.quote_foot, .quote_foot div {
    background: url(images/misc/bg_quote2.gif) top right no-repeat;
}
.quote_head div, .quote_foot div {
    background-position: 0 -5px;
    height: 5px;
    padding: 0 5px;
}
.quote_head span {
    display: block;
    border-top: solid 1px #CCC;
    height: 4px;
}
.quote_foot span {
    display: block;
    border-bottom: solid 1px #CCC;
    height: 4px;
}
.quote_name, .quote_body {
    border-left: solid 1px #CCC;
    border-right: solid 1px #CCC;
    padding: 4px;
}

3. Template


In the template bbcode_quote,


Replace all your code by:

<table class="quote_global quote_global-quote" cellspacing="0">
<tr>
    <td class="quote_head"><div><span></span></div></td>
</tr>
<tr>
    <td class="quote_name">
        <if condition="$show['username']">
            <phrase 1="$username">$vbphrase[originally_posted_by_x]</phrase>
            <if condition="$postid"><a href="showthread.php?$session[sessionurl]p=$postid#post$postid" rel="nofollow"><img class="inlineimg" src="$stylevar[imgdir_button]/viewpost.gif" border="0" alt="$vbphrase[view_post]" /></a></if>
        <else />
            <div class="smallfont">$vbphrase[quote]:</div>
        </if>
    </td>
</tr>
<tr>
    <td class="quote_body">
        $message
    </td>
</tr>
<tr>
    <td class="quote_foot"><div><span></span></div></td>
</tr>
</table>

Enjoy!

look in the template BB code quote-

Admin CP >> styles and templates >> style manager >> select edit template from the dropdown on the style you want to edit >> BB code layout template >> BB code quote

Installed with a few minor edits...
Any fix for nested quotes when the background color of the quote box isn't the same as the page/post? The outside corners of the inside quote are white, in my case, they match the post background but not the quote background. If I make the corners transparent then the boxes look square again because it's the table color behind the image not the page.

Also what about when the quote tag is used in signatures and stuff- for me they are still showing up in the old/original vB style- is there another location to edit the template for sigs maybe?

Thanks.

What the? What went wrong...

(I needed to edit additional.css under Templates as I couldn't edit "Additional CSS Definitions")

The template puts a table around your quote, the CSS removes this!

Make sure you ADD it to your additional CSS. Simple copy and paste should suffice.

I cannot edit this part:



Because I get this message at the top:



I look in the StyleVars menu but I can't find anywhere to paste the code!

This must have been a cache issue, it cleared up on its own in a few hours.

I actually really like the look of that quote as is.

Greetz, is there anyone that can help me out with this problem?

[RobbieZ]

Yup, Try reading the title of this mod you are using.

This is 3.8 Mod. You my friend are obviously using vb 4.0

Your additional.css template is now stored in your styles & templates manager.

But the template quote change wont work as it uses different vb calls. Sorry
