Hi guys,

How do I get the Topic Titles in the 'latest posts' and 'today's topics' lists to show up in their respective colours?

For example, I have set topics within a particular forum to show up with blue titles.  And in that forum they are displayed correctly. (i.e. blue - see below)




But in the latest/today's topics Lists, they just show up the same colour as every other topic. (i.e. purple - see below)



What I want is for certain forums to have their topic titles in specific colours and for these colours to show up in the topic titles in the search lists, so they are not all the same colour.  This will be much more interesting to the eye and will help members.

Is this possible?

Thanks.

Hi @SophieDophs,

Which method are you using the color the topic titles, is it the default color list or JavaScript ? It's most likely possible to change the color of titles on the search page by checking the forum they're in. ( it's right below the topic title )

Go to Modules > JavaScript codes management and create a new script

Placement : In all the pages

Code:

/\/search/.test(window.location.pathname) && $(function() {
  var forums = {
    f43 : '#FF0000',
    f45 : '#00FF00',
    f46 : '#0000FF'
  }, r = $('.dterm'), i = 0, j = r.length, k;
  for (; i<j; i++) for (k in forums) r[i].lastChild.lastChild.href.match(/f\d+/)[0] == k && (r[i].getElementsByTagName('DIV')[0].firstChild.firstChild.style.color = forums[k]);
});

You'll see the following in the script above.

Code:

  var forums = {
    f43 : '#FF0000',
    f45 : '#00FF00',
    f46 : '#0000FF'
  },

f43 is the ID of the forum and '# FF0000' is the color I've associated that forum with. Each forum should be separated by a comma, like in the example above. To find the forum ID, simply go to the forum and copy the ID from your addressbar :


You can replace the example forum IDs and colors with your own, and add to the list as well.
