Forum Description Color


If you want to add some text underneath your new thread and want to use a certain color for it then this is what to look for....

1. Control Panel
2. Manage
3. Edit layout / colors of your board
4. Scroll down to Forum list layout options section

Enter your color HEX code

This will change the color of the text shown in pic below

Re: Forum Description Color


I found this link which gives me way more color codes than is offered by Runboard. There is about three pages of color codes so don't stop at the first page.

Re: Forum Description Color


I have gone in and found the proper place to change the color of the forum description, but for some reason the color doesn't change? Any idea what I might be doing wrong?

Re: Forum Description Color


Hi 1lost1,

You have your color set to two different colors so the last declared value is what the board is showing:

In your custom CSS you have this line:

/* FORUM LIST PAGE */

and at the bottom of that section you show:

span.forumlistdescription {color:#FFE5FF}

That color is like a really light and bright pink.

But you also have the color declared in your html as #FF9966 which is a bright orange like you would see on a peach.

The custom CSS takes priority over the html so you have two ways to handle this. The first way is just to go to your boards management, click on the edit colors button, then click on the custom CSS button. Now go down to the section I showed you and change the hex color from #FFE5FF to #FF9966 which will (once you hit the submit button) change the color to agree with your html.

The second way might cause problems so I'll not detail it here unless you want me to...
