Adding CSS to side panel

lowbenzo

I'd like to add classes to quick categories, discussion filters, quick login, whos online etc, but currently they all share the same list style is there a way to add a class to the ul atleast for each?

lowbenzo

anyone? vanilla is pretty inflexible to style so far... unless you know php

Have you checked out the themes folder yet? Just work round the php...

Make a new theme, add a panel.php, and change line 25 from:
$sReturn .= '<ul>

to
$sReturn .= '<ul class='.str_replace(array(' ', "'", '"', ':'), "", $Key).'>

wow A++ Bergamot! Thanks lech, I already had a new theme just needed to class each one

How do I add classes like, $key3 $key4 etc, just to get different classes on different stuff like uls lis tables etc using the same method, but ugly but works

I'm not entirely sure what you're trying to do, but I think the easiest way would just be to keep track of a counter variable, increment it every time you go through the loop, and use the . operator to stick it on the back of whatever you want to use as your base class name.

get the web developer toolbar and css viewer extensions for firefox. it will help you identify classes in your live board and thus, help you style more efficiently.
