Change Stickied Threads Background Color in Discussion List

[Rocket]

So this is obviously pretty simple, but I did it and figured some others might want to do it.

Its as simple as adding a line of CSS to your themes 'discussion_list.css' template

li.sticky .main { background: #D7EDFC; }

Replace the Hex Code with any color you'd like, you can also use the calls to put in a part of your themes color scheme

That's much easier to do than using a mod in VB.
I have this in my vb 3.8 and I believe it looks better if you make changes to the last 2 columns as well.

I have an example of this (in VB) on my site at http://www.quantnet.com/forum/forumdisplay.php?f=25

That is easy as well.

Just change it to this:

li.sticky .main,
li.sticky .posterAvatar,
li.sticky .stats,
li.sticky .lastPost { background: #D7EDFC; }

OMG Rocket, you're a champion. I've been looking at how to do this for a few days now

Nice little tweak, when doing this on a test installation I went with putting the css in custom css page that was used in another tutorial (the snow at the top of the nav) called EXTRA.css. Might make sense for others to go this route will make it easier to update your template if you have your tweaks in a separate file.

Thanks for sharing!
