Change vBSEO link color in footer...

Sonnie · #1 06-08-2006, 02:32 PM

Hey guys... in the footer where "Search Engine Friendly URLs by vBSEO 2.4.5" is located on our site (Home Theater Shack)... the vBSEO which is linked is the same color as our background. Looks odd. For the life of me I cannot figure out where I can place the <font> tag to change that color. Can you advise?

Thanks!

*gasp*

Don't use the <font> tag to change font colors. Use CSS, like so;
Find in your footer template;

Code:

<!--VBSEO_COPYRIGHT-->

And replace it with;

Code:

<div class="vbseocopyright"><!--VBSEO_COPYRIGHT--></div>

Then add the following into your CSS Additional Definitions, changing the "#000000" to whatever hexadecimal value you want will change the font color this way;

Code:

.vbseocopyright {
color: #000000;
}

Hmmm... that didn't work...

I replaced the code for the copyright in the footer and here's my addtional CSS:

Quote:

.alt3, .alt3Active
{
background: #313969 url(images/gradients/gradient_thead.gif) repeat-x top left;
color: #000000;
}

.alt4, .alt4Active
{
background: #B9A9AC;
color: #000000;
}

.alt5, .alt5Active
{
background: #336699 url(images/gradients/gradient_thead.gif) repeat-x top left;
color: #FFFFFF;
}

.vbseocopyright {
color: #33CCFF;
}

#3322FF is the aqua blue type color used in the other text for that area but it still shows up dark.

change this:

Code:

.vbseocopyright {
color: #33CCFF;
}

to

Code:

.vbseocopyright, .vbseocopyright a {
color: #33CCFF;
}

Hi this is very strange because i cant find this line ] i have search all templates, all i can find in the footer is the vbulletin copyright. im using vb.3.72 and the link is the same colour as the footer- such a simple edit but why can't i find the copyright for vbseo

ok although i did'nt find the original line 
i just added the code to the last line off the footer <div class="vbseocopyright"></div>

the colour changed ok except its aligned left?

i had to move the code up above the script then it was ok. if i found the original line to replace in the begging this would have taken 30 seconds to edit

The copyright is put in by default with php. The HTML comment allows you to place it in a new area if you desire.
