[Forum] couple vB4 problems

[blazinchuck]

1}nothing real serious...but thought id try. i dont recall which template we are running, but all of our search areas on the main forum and subforums have a back ground which is white...and for some reason the lettering must be the same color. so as you typing , you cant see what your typing unless you high light it as in copy/paste. i dont know where or which template the font color needs to be change or maybe change the back ground from white too.
[EDIT] the "advance search" on the forum page works...just the drop down search function within the forum categories-for searching threads in that category

2}also...i miss the old "userCP" name...now its "settings"...anyway to simply change the name back?

3} we have paid subscriptions members can upgrade too...everything seems fine in that area except for those few members that prefer paying in person or by check-either case, i manually go into their profile and "add paid subscription". thats works, but from what i can tell...it doesnt send them a email notice when its about to expire. all those paying through the site get a notice, only the ones manually upgraded do not.


thanks for your time.

1) you can customize it from AdminCP->Styles & Templates->Style Manager then choose Style Variable Editor and click Go

Search for those variable and customize them

Search for Text : user_control_panel
Search in ... : Phrase Variable Name Only

then click edit and translate it into your current lanuage box and save it,

3) add them from AdminCP->Paid Subscriptions->Subscription Manager->choose Add user from drop-down Menu

here is an screen shot...background/text color for search box pointed to, and background/text color for search box circled.

i did what you asked for the background...changed to light grey but i dont see where it changed it. neither of the search boxes change. thanks for your help

you can customize it from AdminCP->Styles & Templates->Style Manager then choose Style Variable Editor and click Go find input_background to edit background and input_color to edit text color

to edit search forum box open template additional.css add this value :

.searchbox{
    background: [B]black [/B]!important;
    color: [B]white [/B]!important;
}

and save template.
you may edit black with your background color and white with your custom text color.
