TOPIC: Different style for each category

The suffix field is integrated into Forum administration.

The effective CSS-editing is - joomla-style updateable via FTP and a (pre) design issue.

Didn't you find the CSS suffix field?

I didn't find this Suffix either. At least not in Forum Administration (using 1.0.2RC2, btw). Perhaps you could post a screenshot here?

Thx!

This is SVN only.
You need to checkout latest release.

To use these latest features, you need to check you database.

Important: Track DB-Changes and publish needed DB columns by hand! This feature needs a new column to store info. (Displays also when missing, but won't store)

RC3 will contain it.

Leave it empty to disable its application.

As i tried to explain:
This suffix is being applied to the code to change css selectors.

Since my previous post has been a little stripped, i try to explain more clearly.

On many positions the output refers to a class "fb_blocktable".
When setting the suffix to "expert", the resulting class is "fb_blocktableexpert".

When you use this selector in the default installation, nothing will happen - except all selectors related to "fb_blocktable" and its defined look will disappear...
You need to define your own design / special looks using this selector.
This is the same way as one does it with css suffixes for menus in Joomla designs.

If you're looking for a forum using this feature, watch
www.seniorweb.ch/index.php?option=com_fireboard&Itemid=470
The most bottom "Experten-Foren" category uses this feature to show up with different color. Also inside forums:
www.seniorweb.ch/index.php?option=com_fi...showcat&catid=15

Attached the additional lines within our css to get the red "expert" look applied to the selected forums. You need to extend the CSS to get a useful application of that feature!

Hope this unveiling helps your imagination.
