vBulletin Manual - The StyleVars Editor

The StyleVars editor is extremely simple to use, due to the simple nature of StyleVars themselves.

The editor consists of a list of text boxes, each of which contains a single StyleVar, together with its title and a short description.

To edit a StyleVar, simply edit its value in the appropriate field and click the [Save] button. The new values will be saved to the database, and you will be returned to the StyleVars editor to review your changed settings.

As with the Common Templates Editor, items that have been customized in the current style will be shown in a different color to indicate this.

Customized items will also show a checkbox labelled Revert. Checking this box and clicking the [Save] button will revert the value of that StyleVar to the default or inherited value.

If the value of a StyleVar is inherited from a parent style, it will be shown in a color to identify it as an inherited value.

StyleVars with inherited values will also show a hyperlink, which when clicked will popup a message window telling you from which parent style the item is inheriting its value.

Note:

For a complete list of all StyleVars used in vBulletin, along with an in-depth description of what each StyleVar does and how it is used, see the StyleVars section of the vBulletin 3 Style Reference.
