Shades of Grey v2.2.10

[Jon12345]

Oh, I didn't know they just released an upgrade. Never done one before. Hope its easy!

Backing up cpanel now, then will upgrade and try the style.

It's working and looking good!

Nice to hear, Jon.

I absoluately love this theme! What is particularly great about it is that I enable it in the evening, so I don't get so much glare. I'm hoping it will help me sleep better!

One question I have is that everything is nice and dark except for my sticky posts. They have the same colours as those in the light theme. I am using a sticky thread add-on if that makes a difference. (which it probably does). The add-on is called [SC] Separate Sticky Threads 2.0.0.

Any ideas on a solution?

Hi @Jon12345

In the Admin CP, go to Appearance > Style Properties > [SC] Separate Sticky Threads and make your desired changes. Look at the images @SyTry provided for you in his add-on description.

If I edit there, does it mean then that the colours will be different on the default Xenforo theme too? I mean I need one colour for stickies on the default theme and another for the Shades of Grey theme.

@Jon12345 No, as you are only changing the colors of that style "only".

 

[Jon12345]

Oh brilliant, just what I need!

I find dark Style where black predominates, sad and depressing.

I like Style Shades of Blue better. I wish @Gator would pay the same attention to the shades of blue.

hi,

you're trying to install it as an addon. Go to styles and install it there.

Thank you for the great theme and I updated to 2.1.8 and it looks like there is a slight problem. New posts don't show the indicator to the left of the thread in the creme text theme but do in the other themes.

Change theme on the bottom to shades of grey creme text to see.

Gator updated Shades of Grey with a new update entry:

Shades of Grey 2.1.8.1

There was a major issue concerning Shades of Grey 2.1.8 (both cream and blue accents), so I fixed the issue. Apparently, the "new Post" bubble shares the same border color as the "active" page numbers, so I returned the border color to it's original state for "new posts" and forced the "active" page number to omit the border for aesthetic reasons.

@NealC Thanks for identifying the issue. It is now fixed. If you are using both blue and cream accents, I would encourage you to download both styles.
