Can someone give me the idiots guide on how to do this please?

I want to make JUST these two forums and all subforums seen link in the color red rather than blue. I wish to leave the rest of the forum list links blue.

Can you please tell me exactly how to do so?

Thanks a million!

I'm not sure that you can do that. I certainly don't know how.

You would have to custom code conditionals into your forum templates and probably add some style code into your css files as well. Its definately possible but would be custom code and probably not worth the effort.

As Peggy has said its not something that can be done by default with vbulletin and TBH I have never seen a hack or plugin that enabled you to do it either.

I would say it is possible, though the syntax eludes me.

1 - create a new class for your new coloured headers
2 - use a conditional in the forumhome_forumbit_level1_nopost (I think) template that checks for forumID matching the forum you want a different coloured header bar (.tcat and .thead)
3 - set the class to the new class where it matches the forumID and the existing class where it doesn't

How does that sound?

How does that sound?

Like something I couldn't do if my life depended on it... :o

Since the model forums and classified forums share the same name we've been forced to include the word "classifieds" behind every single sub forum :o

if Vbull allowed individual color coding of each forum and sub forum link in the main list, we'd be able to free up some of the clutter and remove several examples of this large word seen over and over.

Hey Vbull, just a little more flexibility please! :)

I am trying to see if I follow you here. Are you wanting to just change the subforum link color for certain subforums to red?

Goto my forum: www.eaglegraphix.com/forum and look at the subforum for my VBulletin area. You will see a subforum in red. Is that what you are wanting to do?

Also you can see my Links Directory at the top also. It is done in red.

YES, and also how the links forum is red. give me the dumbed down version of how you did it please :)

It is pretty easy to do. When you are editing the forum you want to be a certain color. Just add this at the very beginning of the title for each forum or sub-forum you want to be red:

<span style="color: red">

If you want the description to be red also add the same thing to the beginning of the description while in the edit mode of the forum. Note you will have to do this for each forum and sub-forum.

HTHs

Will update on progress. Thanks my friend! :)

You are welcome. Hope it works how you want.

Yo Chris!

Nice modification trick!
You're moving faster and faster in this forum game!
