Question How can i change BG-Color of Shoutbox and Active Users-Box?

[Odin]

Hello,

question in title

How can i change the BG-Color of the shoutbox (part where i can see the written messages) and the Active-User-Box?

 

[Fillip H.]

The input area works off of two StyleVars:
input_background and control_focus_background. The first is before the user selected the input area, and the 2nd is while the user is typing.

The actual shouts' background area works off of the postbit_background StyleVar.

Hope that helps

Wow, that was fast!

Is it possible to change it only for the shoutbox-plugin and not for the hole board?

If you want to change it for just the shout box it requires some template edits.

To change the background where you type in the shout requires 2 edits:

In the template dbtech_vbshout_shoutarea_horizontal look for this code:

style="width:100%;

After that add:

background-color:#000000

In the template dbtech_vbshout_shoutarea_vertical look for this code:

width:98%;

After that add:

background-color:#000000

To change the background where the shouts are displayed:

In the template dbtech_vbshout_shoutbox look for this code:

font-size:{vb:var size};

After that add:

background:[URL=http://www.dragonbyte-tech.com/usertag.php?do=list&action=hash&hash=000000]#000000[/URL]

You can change the colors to what you wish by adding the value you want in place of 000000

Faboulos!
And now for the Active User-Box and you save my day

To change the area where it shows the users.

In the template dbtech_vbshout_activeusers look for this code:

overflow:auto;

After that add:

background: #000000

To change the tab that says Active Users.

In the template dbtech_vbshout_activeusers look for this code:

div class="dbtech_vbshout_tabs alt"

After that add:

style="background: #000000"

You can change the colors to what you wish by adding the value you want in place of 000000
