Description of problem

I have been try to get the forum titles of the Wulfenfordshire and Fellinshire categories to be the design described in the code below. What keeps happening is eventually the code breaks and I need to change the numbers indication the areas to be selected for the code and it happens rather randomly. I'm wondering if there is an alternate code or if the code I'm using is incorrect. And even though it may display correctly on the index, viewing the category directly doesn't display the right forum title design.

Now, I did use the main forum title code for my Other two categories that use a different forum title design. So if I need to change that, I can.

What it's supposed to look like:

What it's not supposed to look like:

Screenshot 2:

Code:

.forabg:nth-child(8) a.forumtitle,
.forabg:nth-child(9) a.forumtitle {
  display: box;
  background: transparent;
  font-size: 30px;
  font-family: Nothing you could do;
  color: #FAF9F6;
  text-align: left;
  text-decoration: uppercase;
  -webkit-text-stroke: 1px black;
  margin-top: -20px;
}

hello

add this to your css

Code:


a.forumtitle {
    background: transparent !important;
    font-size: 25px;
    text-align: left !important;
}


to add the stroke to the text add to the above code those lines also

Code:


-webkit-text-stroke-width: 2px;
    -webkit-text-stroke-color: black;


you can change the width and the color


result

a.forumtitle is used for the other two categories. I have Wulfenforshire and Fellinshire different on purpose. The issue is that the child code keeps making me change the numbers at random.

i can quite understand what result you want to succeed

can you post a screenshot and circle the category titles you want to change

How can I get the above code to apply to subforums of specified categories? I don't want to change the design for all of the forums, jist the ones for Wulfenfordshire and Fellinshire. Right now, the code only targets the titles for the index and not the subforums so they look like this:

Spoiler:

But I need the code to work for all forums with each category regardless of the page I'm on. Jist like how it show the same way when I view the category specifically. Like this:

Spoiler:

So I need the code to corrspond for those areas and not just the index for those 2 categories only.

And then when I'm not logged in, wulfenfordshire looks like this:

Hello, have you tried to edit and replace these lines to simple one yet?

Code:

.forabg:nth-child(8) a.forumtitle,
.forabg:nth-child(9) a.forumtitle

by this

Code:

.forabg a.forumtitle

How can I adjust that code so it targets certain categories?

Hello @Merciful Flower,

How can I adjust that code so it targets certain categories?

Go to Administration Panel > Display > Templates > General > index_box edit and replace this

Code:

<div class="forabg">

to

Code:

<div class="forabg" data-forabg-id="{catrow.tablehead.ID}">

Now in your stylesheet use this attribute

Code: [data-forabg-id="cYour_Category_ID"]

and where you have

Code: Your_Category_ID

replace with your category ID (/c1- 1 is the ID). And use in your CSS:

Code:

[data-forabg-id="c1"] .forumtitle {

}

Thanks a million @pedxz! That code worked perfectly!

Edit: And lastly, how to get it to work for subforums? Almost forgot

Edit your topics_list_box (Template in General) and replace:

Code:

<div class="forumbg announcement">

to

Code:

<div class="forumbg announcement" data-forabg-id="f{FORUM_ID}">

and

Code:

<div class="forumbg">

to

Code:

<div class="forumbg" data-forabg-id="f{FORUM_ID}">

The way you use it is the same as I explained above:

Code:

[data-forabg-id="f1"] .forumtitle {
 
}

Code: [data-forabg-id="f1"]

= /f1- this is the ID

Perfect, thank you! This is solved now
