Help locating settings for ministats box in user profile

[brobert123]

I added a new style using the black style generator theme. The ministats box on the user profile page shows white text on white background and I can't find the settings to change background color. Can someone point me to the setting?

It looks like this now:



If I highlight the text box you can see the text is there:



I see the settings if I inspect element and if I change the settings it does change, just can't find the setting in the admincp or styles section in the admincp.

You need to provide an URL so that everyone can help you change which you want

Also note things need to be editted on screenshots are better.

Some times it is better to give a url.
Any way, find: in template "userprofile.css"

PHP Code:

dl.stats dt, #sidebar_container dl.stats, #sidebar_container .blockbody.userprof_content, #sidebar_container 


there is more code after but never mind,

underneath you will see this code

PHP Code:

color: {vb:raw content_text_color}; 


change with

PHP Code:

color: black; 


or what else color you want.

There is another way, but this should be ok.

No don't do the change that way. Change the stylevar content_text_color to be whatever color you want. It's always better not to edit templates if at all possible.

Sorry but its not ok, at all.

Its a stylevar, and as such should have its stylevar value changed.

Changing it directly to a hard coded value is Im afraid, bad advice.

Yes you are right about this, the only problem is that this specific change to stylevar does not exist in all skins. Hope in his will find it.

Thanks for the responses guys.... that's the problem, I can't locate the style variable in the CP. Stupid I know but I've looked everywhere.

Change the color attribute of the postbit_color stylevar. The profile pages are a bit weird because it allows css customization by the user.

[brobert123]

No joy... changed it to black and the ministats window didn't change, still white text on white background.



Whatever it is, it's in here.... I suck at this stuff as it is but I'm racking my brain looking for this.

Try in css template, put this code at the end

PHP Code:

 /***** Change color in user profile sidebar *****/
dl.stats dt, #sidebar_container dl.stats, #sidebar_container, #sidebar_container .userprof_content .time {
color:#ECEC3B;
} 


I think this will make the change you want make a test.
