Does this happen on the default skin as well, or only on custom skins?

 

[AttalaEA]

both

Ok in you style go to stylevars, Block Background, and change Background Color to something a little different than your current color

 

[AttalaEA]

I changed it but nothing happen same problem

 

[Ozzy47]

Hmm that should have change it, could you pm me a admin account, that can administer styles?

As you can see here it worked for me, on test site.

I found a issue with it on my test site after upgrade to 4.1.4, the background color for the sideblock in downloads calls to the stylevar {vb:stylevar forum_sidebar_background} which seems to not be in use anymore.

So if you edit the dbtech_downloads.css template, search for {vb:stylevar forum_sidebar_background}and you will find that in this area:

#sidebar_container .block {
    margin-bottom:4px;
    padding:6px;
    background:[COLOR=red]{vb:stylevar forum_sidebar_background[/COLOR]};
    -moz-border-radius-top{vb:stylevar left}:{vb:stylevar border_radius};
    -moz-border-radius-top{vb:stylevar right}:{vb:stylevar border_radius};
    -webkit-border-top-left-radius: {vb:stylevar border_radius};
    -webkit-border-top-right-radius: {vb:stylevar border_radius};
}

Now change that to {vb:stylevar sidebar_background}

Now the color will be controlled in stylevars by Sidebar/sidebar_background which is the same color as your forum sidebar color on the forum home page.

I am sure @David can look into changing this in the xml for future reference.

PS: Only forum_ sidebar stylevars that remain in vB now is, forum_sidebar_link_color, forum_sidebar_linkhover_color, forum_sidebar_time_color, forum_sidebar_width

Where possible try to keep the info in the first post accurate - knowing this was 4.1.4 rather than 4.1.3 would probably have helped a little =)

I Am not sure what his forum is yet, but I tested it in 4.1.3 and now 4.1.4, and in both versions, alot of the skins don't call for those stylevars anymore

 

[Ozzy47]

And doing a little more research those stylevars have been outdated for some time, since 4.0.8 and 4.1.0 releases

Cheers for the update, keep em coming

Hopefully soon their will be a new xml with all the current stylevars in there, and if it does get released and you import it, you will need to revert the template you edited.
