me and my friend have a forum and wonder how we can get a color selection box like this:
font color selection box Fontcolorselectionbox
we now have a droplist that gives a small amount of colors. i thought the forum runs on phpbb2.

i don't think you can add that. forumotions colors are set by there default for the subject box so forth.

if you have html enabled then you can always add you own color number code. i am sure you can do it bbcode to. or if you have a script that will allow you to do this then it can always be added to your template in the posting section/subject box.

but without a code/script to add to your forum i do not know any way of doing it.well i guess there would not be any other way.

do you have the template or script code to the color box above. if you are able to get the code form the other forum. then it can be worth a try to see if it will work. but i am not sure unless it was tested.. i have used features from other forum before on forumotion. but that was just because it was html code format.. you can try googling it.

if you can find a html code or script i can pretty much show you where to place it in your template.

Yes i think you can only use what ForuMotion gives you, which is almost every color, that one above is very limited.

well if there is a script/code out there the you can just take out forumotions and add that one. of course it would have to be tested,but should work.

i tried to incorporate one from my paid phpbb3 board and all bbcode boxes worked even my custom tags came up but that color pad did not so unless there is a code out there for it i don't see it happening.

i have been looking around lately and found for other places where they had these kind of boxes. and it seemed that it isn't really one box. instead, just all different buttons that bring the color code into the text box.

that would mean having to make all the colored blocks and put them next to the text box, and all the blocks have to be scripted or something like it to put the color code in the text box. making the blocks wouldn't be a problem but the rest... that may be a very big problem for me.
a friend of mine who started the forum (we both keer it as 'our forum') was also searching around but gave up.
at the moment i use macro's to quickly get my desired colors into the text.
