Target Group on Thread List

[Stinky666]

I can't for the life of me figure this out. I have tried several methods but none obviously work (otherwise I wouldn't be posting ).
I have locked topics, to be a different colour for everything. I want to easily target ALL groups, not individual ones by ID.
I hope I don't have to target them by ID. Luckily at the moment I only have 3 groups, but since this is a pre-made theme, it could quite easily be a pain to explain and annoying for everyone else if they have to manually add all their groups.

The code I am using:


.threads .item.locked:not(.announcement):not(.sticky) { color: lighten(#181818, 25%); }
.threads .item.locked:not(.announcement):not(.sticky) .main .link a { color: lighten(#181818, 25%); }
.threads .item.locked:not(.announcement):not(.sticky) .time { color: lighten(#181818, 25%); }
.threads .item.locked:not(.announcement):not(.sticky) .replies a { color: lighten(#181818, 25%); }
.threads .item.locked:not(.announcement):not(.sticky) .views { color: lighten(#181818, 25%); }
.threads .item.locked:not(.announcement):not(.sticky) .user-link { color: lighten(#181818, 25%); }


I've tried all of the following, even targeting just my group (ID 1 - I didn't try these all together, obviously):
.threads .item.locked:not(.announcement):not(.sticky) .user-link.group { color: lighten(#181818, 25%); }
.threads .item.locked:not(.announcement):not(.sticky) .user-link.group-1 { color: lighten(#181818, 25%); }
.threads .item.locked:not(.announcement):not(.sticky) .user-group { color: lighten(#181818, 25%); }
.threads .item.locked:not(.announcement):not(.sticky) .user-group-1 { color: lighten(#181818, 25%); }
.threads .item.locked:not(.announcement):not(.sticky) .user .group { color: lighten(#181818, 25%); }
.threads .item.locked:not(.announcement):not(.sticky) .user .group-1 { color: lighten(#181818, 25%); }
.threads .item.locked:not(.announcement):not(.sticky) .user-link .group { color: lighten(#181818, 25%); }
.threads .item.locked:not(.announcement):not(.sticky) .user-link .group-1 { color: lighten(#181818, 25%); }


Brian, as you know I some times just miss the stupidest of things off. I'm sure (actually, hoping lol) that's all I have done here.


Edit:
Also, how do I make the word "category" into "categories" (so replace the 'y' with 'ies') when it has more than one ?

I only know how to add letters lol, and it's really annoying me as "categories" if there is only 1, and more so as "categorys".
<font color="#ffffff"><b>$[category.length]</b></font> category{if $[category.length] != 1}s{/if}

Anyone? Peter, Brian, pawl...
Much appreciated if you can help

User links use inline styles for their colors. You need to add !important to the end of your styles to override that.

Dumb follow up question..
Where about do I add it to exactly?

.threads .item.locked:not(.announcement):not(.sticky) .user-link { color: lighten(#181818, 25%); }

Edit:
Nevermind, got it
Thanks again Bri

Re; plurals, here's an example of how I do it Stinky666

<strong>$[thread.replies]</strong> repl{if $[thread.num_posts] == 2}y{else}ies{/if} and <strong>$[thread.views]</strong> view{if $[thread.views] != 1}s{/if}
