Alternating "even" classname a la posts

[snap2000]

Hi,

I think it would be a great idea to implement the "even" class for alternating styles in posts with threads and boards too.

Thanks!

You can edit your templates to add this

class="{if $[array_name.even]} even{/if}"

where "array_name" is whatever array you want to use.

Interesting. I really look forward to a templating guide in the future, haha.

Out of curiosity, is there a particular reason to not have this implemented by default, though?

The "even" class is added by the template engine. Go check it out, Themes > Layout Templates > Thread > Post List.


{foreach $[post]}
<tr id="$[post.content_id]" class="$[post.content_class]{if $[post.even]} even{/if}{if $[viewing_recent_posts]} recent{/if}">


We put in classes/ids for what we feel is 'core' to the system, and extras like even/odd are more specific to the theme you are on. We will have more themes coming out soon that may not use this at all.

Got it. Thanks.
