Replying to posts and choosing different colours

Hi all,

I have just found that when you reply to posts that you have only a limited amount of colours to choose from? Is there a way to open this up a bit or some coding or changes that can be made to introduce more colours ?

Thanks in advance

Andy

Hi! Can you provide your forum url?

Thanks, this is the URL. http://nineelms.freeforum.me.uk/forum

I'm afraid this is possible only for phpBB2 and PunBB versions.

You can add more color choices to the text editor, but not the drop-down menu for the title: http://www.diondesigns.org/t1377-example-11-color-picker-for-forumotion-editors-all-boards

i also found a better one that we use in the ACP
This can be found on our sister site The french forum >> here Add a color picker

Tried your one APE but it would not work , so went back to sig,s version . Dont want to spoil the members too much

LOL im not sure why its not working for you but if your happy with the other one then Cool with me

From what I can see there is some script missing or am I missing something ?

To do this place all this code in (CSS Stylesheet)

Code:

Thanks Ape , worked perfectly
