My preset link colors for my forum is really invisible for the show previous comments and comment options. It works (thank the heavens) but it's hard to see. Can I fix this in CSS?

Yes each element has a class that you can use.

I'm sorry.  How?

would it be <div class="message" style="color:black"></div> Something like that or am I going about this wrong?

To modify CSS, you'd want it in your stylesheet and looking like this (using your <div> example):


.message {
  color: black;
}


Just find the class you need to alter and place its new configuration at the bottom of your stylesheet. If you want it to affect all themes, put this in the global header instead:


<style>
.message {
  color: black;
}
</style>


However, if your themes use a variance of colors, I'd recommend the stylesheet and set the color needed on each theme.

I see what you're saying but I'm having troubles finding the right class.  It's using my theme's preset colors for links and visited links for it, but I just want to change it on just the shoutbox and nothing else.

Sorry. It looks like your shoutbox isn't visible to guests, so I'm not able to help any further.

I fixed that.  I'm sorry.  It should be visible now.

You can use those class names. This was a copy from my css in the plugin. Other than that you can right click and inspect an item in google chrome web browser and see the class of anything

all fixed thank you.  I just needed to do this:



<style>

.shoutComControls.shoutCom.shoutbox_comment_button {

color: white;

}



.show-moreclone {

color: white !important;

}

</style>

P̌̓aͧś̀t̀u͒le͆o͂2̀3̃̓ This is really awesome! Good work on this, it's a really neat plugin. I love shoutbox related plugins, and this one is one of the best, if not best!

I don't know if you're taking suggestions, but there was a couple things I was thinking.
-Could/would you be able to make it so it shows previous/all comments to a shout, by default? Like an optional setting?
-Is it possible to show the Comment/Edit "buttons/links" by default, instead of having to hover over them?
-Would you be able to make it so you can change the comments background color?

Just wondering, especially about the default display of all/previous comments. Either way, thanks for this great plugin!

Seeing that I have fulfilled the requestors requests I am willing to do all these things

That would be awesome, and much appreciated!
Let me know if you decide to do any of these! If not, do not worry, this is still a great plugin!

One other thing I thought of, is to have a toggle button/link for show previous comments.
Ex- Currently, after you click show previous comments, the button/link disappears and displays all comments as intended.
It would be cool to have the button/link always visible, and to be able to toggle between showing/hiding previous comments. Just a thought. =d I'd honestly still rather prefer the option to display all comments by default if I had to choose.

If I think of anything else possibly useful to add to this plugin, I'll let you know if you're interested.

Edit- Almost forgot to ask, is there a way to prevent a page refresh, from resetting the show previous comments state?
I'm guessing if comments were displayed by default like I mentioned before, it would work this way with page refreshes?
Sorry to be a pest, just curious. xD

As far as page refreshes, I do not plan on storing last opened closed.
But toggle visibility could be done. Wouldn't it be better to use an icon instead of text if a toggle is done?

I vote yes on the icon.  FYI. lol
