Solved Ticket Styling Question

[tfmore]

Hi Russ,
Can you please tell me how to go about changing the styling (color) for a particular area? Is this Flat Awesome or XF settings? I'm lost in a sea of inherits it feels like.

Thank you

That's controlled by: Style Properties -> Building Blocks -> SubHeading, by default it inherits Color Palette -> xbHeadingBackground

Let me know if that helps

Thank you Russ, that works perfect. But I think we may just be going in circles with this area. See now that we have the proper background color(s) for the Stats and Sticky areas, there is one little rectangular area behind the Replies & Views section (on a standard thread), that we can't change separately. If we change it, the problem then moves up to the sticky thread area, ya know? Screenshot Attached.

 

[Russ]

That should be controlled by an entirely different area. By default XF adds a little background color to that, we sometimes make it transparent, you can adjust the background color:

Style Properties: [XB] Discussion List -> Stats List Block

 

[tfmore]

That changes only 2 small horizontal bars atop and below the rectangle. Screenshot Attached.

 

[Russ]

Set it to a transparent color:

rgba(0, 0, 0, 0)

Should work on each row

 

[tfmore]

Yes with that it now goes back to the original Screenshot I sent. The rectangles are the same color as the Sticky background. The red bars are gone, but the rectangle remains.

 

[Russ]

Do you have a live example, I'll need to see it in action

 

[tfmore]

Yes, here: http://www.lancebase.com/forums/testing.45/

Thank you

Forums closed at the moment, can you open it for a minute or create an account.

 

[tfmore]

Open now.

Check here:

Style Properties: [XB] Discussion List -> Stats <dl>

Set the same transparent background color there. I believe you should be able to put a 0px border there as well to avoid those little lines

 

[tfmore]

Russ! We've been racking our damn brains trying to figure this out. I swear we tried that. Is 'clear' the same as rgba(0, 0, 0, 0)?

Thanks a ton man.

 

[Russ]

No,you'll want to use the rbga(0,0,0,0), let me know if there's anything else

 

[tfmore]

Wow. Ok, thanks again.
