Page text color

[Michelle69]

Does anyone know what template I need to modify to get the inner table main text a different colour than the outter area?

Dilemma below... I need the inner table text darker than the outside.

There's gotta be a way. I've been through the Forum Display and Forum home and replaced the "{categoryfontcolor}" with a hex code and it's not changing it.

Any thoughts?

Try to replace:

<br><smallfont color="{categoryfontcolor}">$forum[description]</smallfont></td>

with

<br><smallfont color="YOURHEX">$forum[description]</smallfont></td>

In forumdisplay_forumbit_level1_nopost & forumdisplay_forumbit_level2_nopost. It runs on my test

Thanks for responding Genetics. Unfortunately that didn't do it for me.

Is there anywhere else I should be looking?

Instead of

forumdisplay_forumbit_level1_nopost & forumdisplay_forumbit_level2_nopost

try

forumdisplay_forumbit_level1_post & forumdisplay_forumbit_level2_post

The "nopost" templates control category display, but you're trying to change the forums' description, so use the "post" templates.

I looked at those too, but there doesn't seem to be any font color tags in there, looks to be all table colours (eg: forumdisplay_forumbit_level1_post)

<tr align="center">
<td bgcolor="#F1F1F1" align="left" valign="top" colspan="2">
<table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" border="0">
<tr>
<td valign="top"><img src="images/$forum[onoff].gif" border="0" alt=""></td>
<td><img src="images/clear.gif" width="9" height="1" alt=""></td>
<td><a href="forumdisplay.php?s=$session[sessionhash]&forumid=$forum[forumid]"><normalfont><b>$forum[title]</b></normalfont></a><br>
<smallfont>$forum[description]</smallfont></td>
</tr>
</table>
</td>
<td bgcolor="#DFDFDF"><normalfont>$forum[replycount]</normalfont></td>
<td bgcolor="#F1F1F1"><normalfont>$forum[threadcount]</normalfont></td>
<td bgcolor="#DFDFDF"><smallfont>$forum[lastpostinfo]</smallfont></td>
<td bgcolor="#F1F1F1"><smallfont>$forum[moderators]</smallfont></td>
</tr>


If I weren't so stubborn I'd just change my background color, lol. I've tried all the obvious templates and I just don't get it

Thanks for responding though!

You can replace in this code

<smallfont>$forum[description]</smallfont>

with

<smallfont color="000000">$forum[description]</smallfont>
