Topic: How do I change the color of "post new topic"?

My forums are here:
http://www.decuadros.org/forum/

How do I change the "Pages: 1 Index » general. Post new topic" to a color that doesn't hide in the background image?

I'd like to change this text to white, or add a background that allows it to be shown.

Where in the style sheet can I change this?

Thanks,
Cole

Re: How do I change the color of "post new topic"?

Which CSS should I put this code into?

The Lithium.css or the Lithium.cs.css?

Thank you!

It doesn't matter. But Lithium_cs.css would be best.

Re: How do I change the color of "post new topic"?

I added it to the Lithium_cs.css, but it only changed the color for the text at the top in a few spots.

Is there a way to change all of this to white?

Know what I'm saying?

Add .linksb to that too. And you may want to style the links.

I added as suggested, but links have not changed, I added:

.pun .linkst { color: #FFFFFF; }
.pun .linksb { color: #FFFFFF; }

You need to style the links separately. As in, style the a tag in .linkst and .linksb.

Do you mean adding something like this ?

.linkst a:link {COLOR: #FFFFFF}
.linksb a:link {COLOR: #FFFFFF}

I also tried:

.pagelink conl a:link {COLOR: #FFFFFF}
.postlink conr a:link {COLOR: #FFFFFF}

Doesn´t work either - I hope someone can help.

You need to put .pun infront of it:

.pun .linkst a:link {COLOR: #FFFFFF}
.pun .linksb a:link {COLOR: #FFFFFF}

Strange, the above works in Firefox, but not in Internet Explorer.

The links below the topics have not changed though.

You are not going to get very far if you don't set the color for a:visited (unless you have never clicked the link)

Re: How do I change the color of "post new topic"?

Ok, this works, but still some problems:

.pun .linkst a:link, .pun .linkst a:visited {COLOR: #FFFFFF}
.pun .linksb a:link, .pun .linksb a:visited {COLOR: #FFFFFF}
.pun .linkst a:link {text-decoration: none}
.pun .linksb a:link {text-decoration: none}

1. As you can see I added the text-decoration: none, but only Firefox sees this, Opera and IE still shows an underline under the links
2. The links below the topics themselves are not affected by this code - what am I missing here ?

Thanks a lot

.pun .linkst a:link, .pun .linksb a:link, .pun .postlinksb a:link,
.pun .linkst a:visited, .pun .linksb a:visted, .pun .postlinksb a:visited
{
         color: #fff;
         text-decoration: none;
}

Re: How do I change the color of "post new topic"?

A little typo at:

.pun .linksb a:visted

Should be:

.pun .linksb a:visited

But now it works perfectly everywhere - THANKS A LOT !
