Where can I set the Sections table background?  Bottom

  • Hello.

    I am in the process of finishing off yet another succesfuly customised theme.

    However I can not figure out how to change the default colours of the tables in modules.

    I am assuming this is a CSS setting but I can not find a setting for this in the CSS or anywhere in the entire PN install!?


    An image of what the heck i'm talking about;

    This is an example of the table colors which I am trying to change. This particular module is 'Sections' its the same colors for all other standard modules, i.e. 'admin', 'user' etc.

    SO! if anyone could share some suggestions with me that could lead to solving this... they'll have a new best friend wink

    lol.... seriously though, this issue has been going on for too long, client is stressing, I'm stressing, @$%@#$%@ PLEA FOR HELP !

    (yes I've searched the whole internet upside down, including these forums :( )
  • If you look at ExtraLite as an example, there are a number of hex color values that you can use to let postnuke know what colors to make various backgrounds. While you don't have to use them yourself, PN will make use of the following:

    Code

    $bgcolor1 = "#ffffff";
    $bgcolor2 = "#cccccc";
    $bgcolor3 = "#ffffff";
    $bgcolor4 = "#eeeeee";
    $bgcolor5 = "#000000";
    $textcolor1 = "#ffffff";
    $textcolor2 = "#000000";

    Naturally, you can set these to whatever you like. I think you'll have to experiment a little to see what modules use what $bgcolor values, but you should be able to set your module backgrounds using these values.
  • marry me now.

    lol.

    thanks.

    it is now obvious why I never found this, I only looked in the CSS files not the CFG files... however! I 'searched ALL files and EVERYTHING within them for the hex codes'

    or at least thats what WindowsXP AND Dreamweaver say their search functions do... pfft.

    thank you VERY much
  • If you want a pretty good app to seek out strings of text across hundreds of files, try ConText...at http://www.fixedsys.com/context/

    Also, AutoTheme allows you to easily change the colors via point and click interface (for each and every module!) Which means, you don't get stuck with colors you don't want on other mods.

    HTH..
