Sorry if my reply wasn't detailled enough. I forgot that my setup might differ from the default one.
First of all, you should make a copy of your theme, so you don't use your default theme supplied with XOOPS.
This can be done by simply copying the existing XOOPSROOT/themes/default to XOOPSROOT/themes/my_theme (you should probably choose a better name).
Remember to go to ADMIN, SYSTEM ADMIN and choose Settings, general settings and change the standard theme to "my_theme".
This way you can play around with the theme and you will always have a fall-back theme if you mess up or if you just want to see how the default settings were.
In your new theme's CSS, locate:
.outer {border: 1px solid silver;}
.head {background-color: #c2cdd6; padding: 5px; font-weight: bold;}
.even {background-color: #dee3e7; padding: 5px;}
.odd {background-color: #E9E9E9; padding: 5px;}
.foot {background-color: #c2cdd6; padding: 5px; font-weight: bold;}
tr.even td {background-color: #dee3e7; padding: 5px;}
tr.odd td {background-color: #E9E9E9; padding: 5px;}
and add
.outerhead a {
font-size: 15px;
color: #ffffff;
}
.outerhead a:hover {
color: #FF0000;
}
Go to the template for the forum (ADMIN/System Admin/Templates/My_templates/Forum/ newbb_index.html
This requires that you have already made a clone of your default templates, as YOU CANNOT CHANGE THE DEFAULT TEMPLATES!
Find this:
<!-- start forum categories -->
<{section name=category loop=$categories}>
<table cellspacing="1" class="outer">
<tr align="left" valign="top"><th colspan="6"> <a href="<{$xoops_url}>/modules/newbb/index.php?cat=<{$categories[category].cat_id}>">
<{$categories[category].cat_title}></a></th></tr>
<tr class="head" align="center">
and change it to:
<!-- start forum categories -->
<{section name=category loop=$categories}>
<table cellspacing="1" class="outer" border="3">
<tr align="left" valign="top"><th colspan="6" class="outerhead"> <a href="<{$xoops_url}>/modules/newbb/index.php?cat=<{$categories[category].cat_id}>"><font size="+1">
<{$categories[category].cat_title}><font size="-1"></a></th></tr>
<tr class="head" align="center">
You will have to do this various places thoughout the newsbb templates.
I hope it became a little more clear now and sorry for giving you a half-answer based on wrong conditions first time.
Do ask if you need clarifications or further help.
