Hi

Since upgrading to CBB 3.04, I've noticed that the user profiles can no longer be seen becuase their colour has merged with the theme. This has happened on both of my sites (The F3 one and the Lost Dogs one) both of which use different coloured themes :

I want it to show in the same way that it does here at Xoops.org. What's the reason, and anyone know how to fix?

Cheers

Ted

I wondered if changing
.comUserName {}

to
.comUserName {color#ffffff;}


in style.css for my theme would have worked, but seemingly not.

I've pinned it down to that particular value has nothing to do with values assigned in the theme. I've looked at 3 of my sites, two use CBB 3.04 and one uses an earlier version. Both the 3.04 one's have the same problems, the earlier one does not. They all use different themes.

So I think it's a value in newbb/templates/newbb.css, but which one I wonder influences the username colour? Surely someone else has had this problem?

i had a similar problem where the user information like post count and join date were invisible.

you need to make the change in cbb's templates. i think the file you need to change is newbb_thread.html

The post and join date colours specifically are influenced by .comUserStat in the style.css of the theme. but none of the other values there relate to the username specifically. For some reason, the username display properties are not tied into the theme when it's displayed in CBB as described - it's purely a modular setting specified by CBB somewhere.

Looking at the newbb_thread.html template, there is the value :

<th width="20%" align="left">
       <
div class="[b]comUserName[/b]"><{$topic_post.poster.link}></div>
       </
th>


which as I stated earlier does live in the style.css of the theme. But it's written as 'comUserName {}' in style.css. I added color attributes to it earlier as stated above, but it made no diff?

Thanks

Ted

did you change it in styleNN.css also? I think that's the file that firefox uses





<th width="20%" align="left">
       <
div class="comUserName"><{$topic_post.poster.link}></div>
       </
th>



Also, I think if you throw in some html in between the div tags, it will override everything else and display how you want it to.

i'm kind of a n00b though, so i might not know what i'm talking about

The theme I use only has one style.css - the other has one for all three. But the problem happens with IE (style.css) anyway - just tested on a Windows box.

You could be right about the template but I'm no good at tweaking them

Try something like this instead:


.comUserName a {color#ffffff;}
.comUserName a:hover {color#ffffff;}

Thanks guys...that has worked!! All that time, and it was just because I'd missed the 'a' out before the {. How annoying!

Thanks so much - I can rest now...(I can't stand noticeable inperfections)
