How do I get the category bars to highlight and change color when you...

[CreepingDeath]

roll your mouse over them?

IE: Instead of the FORUM NAME being a link, the entire STRIP is a link and changes color when you roll over it?

[Jake Bunce]

edit your forumhome_forumbit_level2_post template. add the code in bold

<tr align="center">
<td bgcolor="{secondaltcolor}" valign="top"><img src="{imagesfolder}/$forum[onoff].gif" border="0" alt=""></td>
<td bgcolor="{firstaltcolor}" align="left" onMouseOver="this.style.backgroundColor='{secondaltcolor}'; this.style.cursor='hand';" onMouseOut="this.style.backgroundColor='{firstaltcolor}';" onclick="window.location.href='forumdisplay.php?s=$session[sessionhash]&forumid=$forum[forumid]'"><a href="forumdisplay.php?s=$session[sessionhash]&forumid=$forum[forumid]"><normalfont><b>$forum[title]</b></normalfont></a>
<br><smallfont>$forum[description]</smallfont></td>
<td bgcolor="{secondaltcolor}"><normalfont>$forum[replycount]</normalfont></td>
<td bgcolor="{firstaltcolor}"><normalfont>$forum[threadcount]</normalfont></td>
<td bgcolor="{secondaltcolor}"><smallfont>$forum[lastpostinfo]</smallfont></td>
<td bgcolor="{firstaltcolor}"><smallfont>$forum[moderators]</smallfont></td>
</tr>

Thanks! It highlights, just doesn't change color

[CreepingDeath]

Go it!! Nevermind!!!

[CreepingDeath]

One last thing. The area where the ICONS at the top are....I am trying to make that black too. Can't find the darn area where you change that. Got everything else!!!

header template. remove both instances of:

background="{imagesfolder}/menu_background.gif"

[CreepingDeath]

YOU RULE!

BUT...it did take the link off the forums title image. It must have been attached to the background.

How do I get the vBulletin logo to take you back to the main forums page?

[Jake Bunce]

it shouldn't have removed the link. you must have accidentally deleted more than the above text. revert the template back to default and do the changes again.

[CreepingDeath]

Got it, thanks!

Can someone tell me exactly where forumhome_forumbit_level2_post is?

I am in Admin and cannot find. Is it under Templates, Replacements?

Thanks...pardon the ignorance.

Trying to get the site up and running.
