StyleVar for forum popup menus

[Lynne]

You can't make changes in firebug and have them go into vbulletin. Firebug is completely separate from vbulletin and doesn't interact with it. If you want to change something on your site, you need to actually do so in the admincp.

The following video shows how to convert what you find in Firebug to vBulletin:

So how does one adjust the "Forum Tools" popup menu colors without also affecting the popup menus on the main navigation bar (e.g. Quick Links and such)?

[Lynne]

Use the menu id in your CSS if you want it just for there.

Thanks, but I'm not sure what that means or how to go about doing that.

For instance, for the Thread Tools menu and the rest up in that bar, the color of the font/link is set by:

.toolsmenu .popupgroup .popupbody a, .toolsmenu .popupgroup .popupbody li label {    color: #3E3E3E;    font-size: 11px;}

So, if you want to change it only for that bar, you can look in the page source (or use firebug) and see it has an id of "thread_controls". So, you could do this:

#thread_controls.toolsmenu .popupgroup .popupbody a, #thread_controls.toolsmenu .popupgroup .popupbody li label {
    color: pink;
}
