Post subject: Change Text Color in Posts, Drop down menus, user/pass, etc.
Ok.... this is my problem...

I have made a very dark theme... kinda like the theme on this site is dark... yet, when writing in this post, the text isnt black..... I went to post on my forums and realized that the text is black by default... I have been searching forums for a while now, reading post after post and cant find nothing that can help.... I have tried making adjustments in:

modules\Forums\templates\subSilver\subSilver.css and uploaded it to the webserver in that directory, but it didnt change anything

So I used the admin control panel/ styles admin/management/ edit subsilver/ edited the styles and saved changes..... this is how I changed all the colors in subsilver template........ I was able to change everything but the black text when writing posts... button... drop down menus etc....

I am using 3D-Fantasy theme with my own images, and subSilver template.... (I havent learned how to create my own theme yet) anyways.... if you can help... that would be great... if you want to see what I am talking about... go to :
[ Register or login to view links on this board. ]

I just went thru every file in the template for subSilver theme and changed any #000000 to #FFFFFF and its still black... lol! The only guess I can make is its just the default color and isnt represented by code...... If someone knows where I add the code to change the black font when replying to posts, etc.... to white

That would be great!

Look in your forums folder for that theme. There should be a .css file in there. If so, the color for the text in the forum messages should be defined by td {....}.

Here is the subsilver.css file.... I have changed all colors to white, but still my text is black.... and nothing else is changed.... it might be a mistake with the subSilver template in forums....

I probably will try adding a different template for forums and tweak that... because the default Subsilver template for forums is something I think I dont want to bother with anymore......lol.... When i installed Nuke... I just kept subsilver template for forums...., anyways, I will try screwing around with it when I am sober.... Noone is posting or joining my forums anyways.... so is no big deal.... lol

Is just strange that the subSilver.css file isnt changing anything... and the only way I can change the subsilver theme is thru the admin, going to style admins, and tweaking it there.....

heres the code... I havent changed any of this code in subSilver.css, besides changing all the #000000 font colors to #FFFFFF..... and every other color to #ffffff... just to mess with it.... show that its not working...

I think i am SOL.....

If you're talking about the text for messages in your forums, you need to look in your forums folder. Most themes will have another .css file in there. See my post above.

Post subject: re: Change Text Color in Posts, Drop down menus, user/pass,
I seen what your saying though.... i looked into the 3d-Fantasy theme, and it doesnt have a forums folder... Others like deepblue does.... but not 3D Fantasy..... I really think I just need to switch my forums template........ to something besides subsilver.... will try that tomorrow.

Am sure if I try a different template will have an option to change that text color.... subsliver probably was setup for themes like deepblue, that have .css files in a folder called forums...... because it was made to support its forums.....

Thx for your help guys... will let you know once I find a forum template to use... icon_smile.gif

That was it guys, thx for your help...

I added a folder to 3d-Fantasy called forums from another theme... and just changed all the code around so it only looked at 3d-Fantasy and changed the images to what I previously had on subSilver theme...., and changed all the forums.css info and it automatically updated the forums theme with white text, etc....... appreciate your guys help.... am editing the posts above and removing the code... cause its alot of spam that isnt needed...
