Hello! I'm trying my best at designing CSS for my forum in #ModernBB style. I'd like to know what code should I use for colouring bold text in posts by groups.

For example:
Group A have colour green so bold text in Group A post is green
Group B have colour blue - bold text in Group B post is blue

Code:

.GroupAGroup .postbody strong {color: #colorcode;}

Doesn't work or am I missing something?

hello

did you see this feature to another forumotion forum ?

Hi! I know that the code above was used in other forums and it worked but it was on phpBB2 if I remember well. That's why I'm curious is there another code or way to make it works on ModernBB too.

Hello
Please note that most codes from phpBB2 forums will never work on ModernBB forums as the coding is not the same at all.

 EDIT: You can do the following to find out the code needed to use in the group.

Using your browser hover over the group at the bottom of your forum.

Then right click on one of them go down and click on inspect
it should then open up something like this then look for this part of the code.

if you see the part that has the text

Code: href-''/g4-gurpa1

that will be the part that you would use to pin point each group.

I made an edit in my last post for you to see how the codes are not the same.

Thank you for your answer!
The same part is on the forum (on phpBB2) with groups too. This is why I wonder what code could work for making the bold text in post the same group as the colour of group, in which is the author.

I know it's enough to use code:

Code:

.postbody b strong: {color: #colorcode;}

To have coloured bold text but I'm thinking about colours of groups in which authors are.

If I understand what you want, I believe you will need a JavaScript to get the ID for each group that you want to have this ability.  You want that each group when posting bold text that it would be the color of the group, correct?

Yes, correct. If it is the only way to have a coloured bold text by a colour of the group in ModernBB then I'll need a JS.

i have not seen any scripts about this so i guess you have to wait for a member with javascript skills to answer your request

The best ones to help with this would be @pedxz or @Niko they are great with codes

Coucou,

I saw @Ape tagged me ^^
So if I well understood, you would like that the bold text of an user becomes of the same color of his/her username?

For example Ape's bold text would be red, skouliki's bold text would be green, etc...? Is this what you mean?
Let me know

Hello! Yes, indeed this is what I meant

@the60s Sorry for the question, Maybe I haven't properly read the previous messages... but haven't you already achieved the result?

Cause I see the bold text colored according to the username color, and this script added to your forum:

Code:

$(function(){
    groupMod('#20A896','Grupa1Group');
    function groupMod(color,classname){
        $('.post:has(span[style="color:'+color+'"] strong)').addClass(classname);
    }
});

Am I missing something?
