PHPBB3 First Post Background
By now those of you who like to read every thread know I run a Role Play forum Our games are mission based, and I would really like to have the "first post" attached to every page, and make it stand apart from the others with a simple background picture on it. It holds the mission details, settings, goals, players, etc, and to have it on top of every page with the same look as the other posts doesn't always work.
I've searched my CSS code and all I could find was a First Post Break code to change. What is the code for the first post box? I know in PHPBB2 it has a separate template, so it has to be a separate div that I can change the properties of (seeing as how it has an added code to pull up the "First post reminder" in it as well).
I might be switching to PHPBB2 after this, so I can get to the templates, but before I make that kind of decision I'd really appreciate a simple fix that would let me just change the background of the First Post.
((Yes, I've already gotten it to show on every topic.))

Re: PHPBB3 First Post Background
Try this in your CSS:
Note that this will not work with Internet Explorer 6.0, and it may have formatting issues with Internet Explorer 7.0. It should be fine with IE8 and all other browsers.
- Code:
div.clear + div.post {background: (color) (image) (repeat) (position);}

Nope it didn't work. Here's what I had come up with:
It did nothing =/ I placed it in the CSS by itself, just like that.
- Code:
div.clear + div.post {background: #000000 url('http://i21.servimg.com/u/f21/15/41/57/43/darken10.jpg') repeat: x;}

Your syntax was incorrect. Try this:
- Code:
div.clear + div.post {background: #000000 url(http://i21.servimg.com/u/f21/15/41/57/43/darken10.jpg) repeat-x;}

So close! Two punctuation marks off Syntax isn't my thing, obviously...
It worked, thanks Yay! Now if only they'd open the templates so I could hide the "Re: ..." text on every post. You wouldn't happen to know that one, would ya? In CSS I mean.

You should know that this CSS rule will work on the first post on a page. So if you have the option to display the first post on every page activated, it will work perfectly for you. If you have that option turned off, there is nothing that can be done on forumotion, templates or otherwise, that would provide a custom background for the first post of a topic, and ONLY the first post.
What Re:? There isn't one in my post!
