I would like to be able to add to the css code to highlight or change the color of the number of people viewing a forum as I think it needs to be more prominent.

Stylesheet editor -> Category/Forum Properties -> newtotal

That should fix you up.

I'll be moving this down to general assistance.

Doesn't newtotal only effect the number to the left of the total that displays how many are new posts/threads?

Edit your style, go to "Extra Properties" and drop this in:

Newtotal is just the number of new topics/replys in the parenthesis.

Somehow when I moved this topic, I didn't leave the moved stub in the feedback forum where this was. I hope ScriptKeeper finds us down here.

Ok, well that's not what he wanted.. He wants to change the color of the text to the right of the forum title, which isn't effected by the newtotal element.

My "extra css" above should help him get what he wants; i tested it on my forums and it worked out fine.

Crud. I read that wrong. I need to run off and take a nap.

<snicker> honest mistake, I think it was kind of assumend when you see the red you think of the special color defined in the cp

AHEM! When you've quite finished bickering. Yes I did find the thread (although I did think that it had been deleted for some reason), yes I did add the additional code to "Extra Properties" and yes it does work exactly as I wanted.

Thankee very much oh gentlefolk of USA land.

Who, us? Bicker? never! :x...

USA land salutes thee accross the pond

Is there a setting to turn on/off the display of the number of people viewing a forum?

add to extra properties

Thanks.
