nav bar questions

[Armorgod]

Is there a way to put a border around the navbar area?
Can you set a bg image to the navbar area?
What controls the font color in the navbar area? Will it effect the font color anywhere else?

In common.css, you'll find:

Code: Select all

.navbar {
        background-color: #ebebeb;
        padding: 0 10px;
}

you can add any attributes you want to this one.

in colours.css, you'll find:

Code: Select all

.navbar {
	background-color: #cadceb;
}

this is its background color.

I added ...

border: 1;
border-color: #000000;

to the common.css but no change.

[TheIlluminative]

You didn't specify the border type, make it something like:

Code: Select all

border: 1px solid #000000;

Thanks a ton for the proper code.
Is there a way to remove the white rounded corners for the navbar but keep them in the forumbar?

[TheIlluminative]

Open file: styles/your_style/template/overall_header.html, find:

Code: Select all

		<div class="navbar">
			<div class="inner"><span class="corners-top"><span></span></span>

			<ul class="linklist navlinks">
				<li class="icon-home"><a href="{U_INDEX}" accesskey="h">{L_INDEX}</a> <!-- BEGIN navlinks --> <strong>&#8249;</strong> <a href="{navlinks.U_VIEW_FORUM}">{navlinks.FORUM_NAME}</a><!-- END navlinks --></li>

				<li class="rightside"><a href="#" onclick="fontsizeup(); return false;" onkeypress="fontsizeup(); return false;" class="fontsize" title="{L_CHANGE_FONT_SIZE}">{L_CHANGE_FONT_SIZE}</a></li>

then refresh your templates.

[Armorgod]

Thx again, you rock!

[juniorcleff]

Where would you go to change the navicon in a user's address bar?

[Raimon]

I assume you mean favicon

Upload your favicon.ico to the forum root directory.
After that open overall_header.html
place under the <head>

the code ;

Code: Select all

<link rel="shortcut icon" href="./favicon.ico" />

after that refresh your template ( acp -> styles -> templates -> refresh ).

[TheIlluminative]

Which one do you mean ? The navicon that appears in the browser's address bar ? Or a something within the style ? An image would explain more.
