Topic: Hacking your CSS!

I was just wondering if you could tell me a code for making the "Start New Topic" for midnight juice black, as my header is white. I don't have FireFox and I think it's pointless to get it for this one problem

@sparkz56 to make your 'start a topic' black, add this CSS: #start_conversation {font-color: #000000;}

You don't need firefox w/ firebug to do this, you can 'View Source' in IE to see our CSS settings, however, Firefox with Firebug gives you a lot of information about your forum and allows you to test changes live on the page without having to save and reload.

like this http://streetnologe.lefora.com

The following should do most of what you guys want with reference to the white content background on juice.

#content {background-color:#000000;color:#FFFFFF;}
#posts_wrapper {background-color:#0B0B0B;}
#content .linkuser {background:none;}

There may be a lot of bits that look funny as a result, so you may have a lot of tweaking to do, but those 3 should make it usable at least and get you started.

hdsadmin, just use the following css snipet in the css box:

#forum_title {display:none;}

and it will vannish.

Hi :)! I read a lot of time in this forum and i'm not professional. I do not use Firefox, so I can't use Firebug... So could you please type all possible CSS codes for changing the colors (or as much as you can)? I need specific colors for the whole forum and i couldn't find out the codes I have to write. Thank you.

hey vipkns, as we're constantly improving and changing lefora, there's not an easy static list we can provide (and more importantly, maintain).

The CSS editing is an advanced feature, for those who are comfortable with experimenting and playing around with it. If you're not comfortable making changes, we'd recommend not to use the CSS editor and stick with one of the pre-made themes. We add new themes every other month or so. Each theme is customizable even without CSS knowledge, you can change the colors and upload header images through the admin panel.

CSS tip for better visibility of the new quotes function

.text blockquote { background:#abc123; }

(set #abc123 to any other hex color variable you want)

Well, I noticed the themes but the problem is that at the Simple theme: Simply Dark there isn't any chance to change colors - the slider dosn't work. And the theme by itself isn't very good. You can't see good for example the unmarked links at the Forum-Headlines-Members-About menu. You also can't see the All topics link. But it would be great if you fix that thing with the colors on this theme.

I think we'll have to archive this topic soon as it has far to much out of date information. The most important thing to note here is:

Any css starting with #xposts will not work on the new/current themes.

Categories that have new posts in them should have the word 'new' appear on the /forum/ page, are you not seeing this?

I took a look and I see you've pasted a lot of css in there.
Thats not neccissary, it looks like there are multiple copies mixed up in their to. I'd reccomend deleting it all, you only need to put in there the differences to the default, and from a quick look over your forum I belive the following is all you need:

#footer {
background-image:url(http://img362.imageshack.us/img362/144/m31gendlernmosaic1rz0.jpg);
background-repeat:no-repeat;
overflow:hidden;
padding-bottom:640px;
}
#page {
background-color:#0A383D;
}

There maybe a few more small differences I haven't notices, but its probably best to clear out your css, as you've put an entire copy of the theme in their it will overide any changes/fixes we make.

question. i can't see my CSS is that because i chose a layout and the CSS is not available to me?
