Hovering Colors/ Thread Background

[pitszal]

Hi The yellow text hovers into the orange color. How can I change that to the yellow? I have tried everything. Thanks

Your forum was closed to guests so couldn't see what all you have going on there but probably the easiest is to add this to the bottom of your style sheet for that theme.

/*change color of board links*/

.boards .main .link a:link, .boards .main .link a:visited{color:#ffff00;
}
.boards .main .link a:hover{color:#000000!important;
}

I had to add include the regular link as well as the visited in order to get the hover to work. Of course you'll need to change the hex color to what you prefer.

For the hover, I can't help unless you have it so I can view your site. You have it so guests must log in.

For the thread list, if you want the title row as well as the threads add this to the bottom of your style sheet:

/*background color for threads and title row of threads*/

.threads table.list{background-color: #ff0000;
}

If you don't want the title row with the background color but just the threads only add this to the bottom of your style sheet:

/*background color for threads only*/

 .threads table.list td{background-color:red;
}

Thank You Tumbleweed it worked

 Ok I have changed it so guests do not have to log in so you can see the hover. I sort of like the yellow and orange hover now. I would still like to know how not to have it though. 

Thanks

I took a look and what I gave you should have worked. Maybe try one more time even if you want to keep the orange. Could be you missed copying the last } or when you put a color in you only had 5 characters? Otherwise, I haven't a clue. It works on my test site.

You can put your site back to guests must log in.

Hi
I tried again. It seems it works for some but not others. I have just about tried everything. Is there anybody that can look at the Style sheet. Maybe their is something in there that is preventing this.
Thanks

There are 4 parts to links:

a:link

a:visited

a:hover

a:active

Could it be the active ones staying orange or is it definitely just the hover over color? When you say it is working on some and not others, are we still talking just the board names or other links too?

Awww, thought you just meant the main page. Go to: Admin > Themes> Advanced Styles & CSS> Visual Editor>Body (Content)Lists (Boards, Threads, Posts...)>Rows>Text>Links. Now that just sets the non-hovered color but it also, I believe sets the "highlight" text color, meaning you are just hovering over the board and not the link itself yet the text still changes color. To actually really change the hover,  you have to go as far as rows and then highlight>Text>Links and setting it there should take care of the hover. (I know, can get confusing.)

As far as posts, do you mean if you tag someone or are you talking mini-profile because those are the only two instances I can think of that would have names and I assume you mean username.

Sorry, those are the things that changes those colors and I don't know what else it would be but one last thing to try. Paste the bold below at the bottom of your style sheet making sure you removed the other stuff I had you try in your style sheet: (I have blue in there so you can clearly see if it is changing.)

.list .item > .state-hover.main .link a, .list .item:hover > .main .link a{color:#0000ff!important;
}

It could be you are seeing the clickable area hover making the text change and not actually hovering over the text?

Hi

I think you got it. When I change the #0000ff to #e6b426 the text stays yellow without a hover. When I change the #0000ff to #eb7629 it hovers Orange. So it is good. Thanks so much
