UBB.threads PHP Forum Software Community Forums UBB.classic UBB.classic 6 Support Recent Visitors

Using 6.3 beta (JC's templates) and would like to match the font colour for "Recent Visitors" with the other category descriptions [here]

I've looked at a number of templates but can't seem to find the right bit of code.

Thanks <img src="https://www.ubbcentral.com/boards/images/graemlins/tongue.gif" alt="" />

Check the pntf templates <img src="https://www.ubbcentral.com/boards/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> Or it might be in the pntf cgi file. I'll need to do some looking.

JC,

According to vars_wordlets_pntf.cgi I think I'm looking for a reference to "pntf_title" which is in public_pntf_summary.pl but despite trying this: I didn't manage to change the link clour.

I've obviously got the wrong link

You'll need to figure out <font color="%%SPANTCOLOR%%">

and where it is defined from. Look in ubb_lib.cgi

It uses CategoryStripColor or CategoryStripTextColor depending if it's "docked" or not.

mmmmm <img src="https://www.ubbcentral.com/boards/images/graemlins/confused.gif" alt="" />

getting a bit out of my depth now . . .

I had a feeling that the textcolor was defined in here: (ubb_lib.cgi)

$replace = &QuickSummary($vars_config{BBName}, "", $results, $colspans);
$replace = &Template($replace, {
SPANCOLOR => ($vars_pntf{Docked} eq "yes" ? $vars_style{CategoryStripColor} : $vars_style{TableColorStrip} ),
SPANTCOLOR => ($vars_pntf{Docked} eq "yes" ? $vars_style{CategoryStripTextColor} : $vars_style{TableStripTextColor} ),

but everything I tried brought the board down

If I'm gonna manage this, I think I need "hack" style directions - (find xxx replace with yyy)

any chance, or should I head on over to UBBdev?

Thanks either way JC <img src="https://www.ubbcentral.com/boards/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

Just set the color in your control panel. If you are using the JCtemplates and css they bypass the color settings there anyway.

jeez - can't believe it - after all that it was a cp mod <img src="https://www.ubbcentral.com/boards/images/graemlins/mad.gif" alt="" />

JC - any reason why the recent visitors category strip isn't picking up the "JC Gradient Bars"? here (either docked or undocked)

Any way to change that?

Thanks <img src="https://www.ubbcentral.com/boards/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

open public_pntf_summary.pl and look for:

<tr>
<td bgcolor="%%SPANCOLOR%%" colspan="$colspan" align="left" background="$vars_config{NonCGIURL}/$vars_style{jc_title_bar}">
<a href="$vars_config{CGIURL}/ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=pntf$qstring">
<font face="$vars_style{FontFace}" size="1" color="%%SPANTCOLOR%%">
$title $vars_wordlets_pntf{pntf_simple_title} $r->{'raw_total'}
</font></a>
</td>
</tr>

Add the part in bold.


Ya know, I think that is the most popular style to use <img src="https://www.ubbcentral.com/boards/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> Who knew..

Thanks so much JC - looks purrrfect now - I made two more slight variations to your suggestion:

<tr>
<td bgcolor="%%SPANCOLOR%%" colspan="$colspan" align="left"background="$vars_config{NonCGIURL}/$vars_style{jc_category_bar}">
<a href="$vars_config{CGIURL}/ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=pntf$qstring">
<font color="%%SPANTCOLOR%%">

(class="titlebar was the only way I could shrink the font to look consistent with the rest of the page, and I used the category_bar instead of the title_bar)

Yeah - GREAT template - if it becomes too popular I might have to contract you ($$$) to design an exclusive for me.

BTW - your site is awesome!! (think I preferred the style just before you changed it today - sorry <img src="https://www.ubbcentral.com/boards/images/graemlins/frown.gif" alt="" />
