[vB4] style_var for new PM link color

[-martin-]

Hello

I can't find style_var for changing link color when there is new private message, or even background when there is new PM.

Somehow I lost it. ..

In the header? They are controlled by the toplinks_* stylevars.

thanks, yea, I found it, for a background it's toplinks_hilite_background

but when it's set, hilighted is also on mouseover and login background form, can it be just set for new pm's?

You'd have to edit the CSS directly for that. Actually, I'd suggest putting overriding CSS in the addtional.css template.

The code you want to edit is this:

.toplinks ul.isuser li a:hover {
    padding-top: 3px;
    padding-bottom: 3px;
    padding-{vb:stylevar left}: 4px;
    padding-{vb:stylevar right}: 4px;
    background: {vb:stylevar toplinks_hilite_background.backgroundColor};
    color:{vb:stylevar toplinks_linkhover_color};
}

and this:

.toplinks ul.nouser li a:hover {
    background: {vb:stylevar toplinks_hilite_background.backgroundColor};
    color:{vb:stylevar toplinks_linkhover_color};
}

Set it to fit your needs and place the new code in your Additional.css template.

I succeed by setting custom additional.css , notification about new PM is now only with red background defined by style_var toplink_hilite_background , everything else have no background (it's transparent)

.toplinks ul.isuser li a:hover {
    padding-top: 3px;
    padding-bottom: 3px;
    padding-{vb:stylevar left}: 4px;
    padding-{vb:stylevar right}: 4px;
    background: none;
    color:{#ffffff};
}
.toplinks ul.nouser li a:hover {
    background: none;
}


.toplinks .logindetails {
    background: none;
}

.toplinks ul.nouser li a {
    background: none;
}

result:
