Just Thinking ( ... about LINKING )

[Xube]

Would it be possible to change the link display color for links that appear in signatures of posts on a board without changing the the link colors for all links boardwide?

[Zachery]

<!-- sig -->
<div>

change to

<!-- sig -->
<div class="sig">

AdminCP > Styles & Templates > Style manager > Click on go for the style you want this to effect > Scroll down to the extra CSS area >

add


.sig a:link
{
color: #ffffff;
text-decoration: none;
}
.sig a:visited
{
color: #ffffff;
text-decoration: none;
}
.sig a:hover, .tcat a:active
{
color: #FFFF66;
text-decoration: underline;
}

Change each of the hex codes to somthing that suits your forums.

Sorry Zachery, I just noticed that my post question is in the vB3 area. Can something similar to this be done for sigs in vB2?

[Zachery]

It should be possible, let me check vB2's templates


Find

<p>$post[signature]</p>

replace with

<p class="sig"><p>$post[signature]</p>

save

find

}
</style>

In the headinclude template
and change too

}
.sig a:link
{
color: #ffffff;
text-decoration: none;
}
.sig a:visited
{
color: #ffffff;
text-decoration: none;
}
.sig a:hover, .sig a:active
{
color: #FFFF66;
text-decoration: underline;
}
</style>
 

That shoudl work

Nah... couldn't get it to work. I have been tinkering with it though... such as

• after trying the code above I then tried...
  <p class="sig">$post[signature]</p>

• instead of...
  <p class="sig"><p>$post[signature]</p>

Just making a guess that maybe the additional p was already part of that first p=... class bracket thingy, but alas that still didn't work.

Sorry about that, i was doing alot fo copying and pasting.

change the <p class="sig"></p> to <div class="sig"> </div>
