Hi,

I'm looking for a way to visually indicate pinned/locked topics by changing the background color of the table row

Alternatively, a new type of post "Forum Note" could be added, with a different background color, so I can put them at the top of a forum and draw proper attention to these special posts

thanks

'Pinned' topics will persist at the very top of the index list and the table row is given a class of:

sfpinnedtopic

is that enough?

and new forum topics are generally (can change it up via options) listed in order of "newness" after the pinned topics and do have a different icon displayed next to them...

I'm not a css expert or anything - how could I take advantage of the sfpinnedtopic tag to change the background color ?

you need to add the styling to your wp theme (or spf skin) to tell it what you want to do...

for example:

.sfpinnedtopic {background-color: #ffffff;}

would give them white background...

ok, so suppose I'm using the detroit skin

when I edit detroit.css, where do I put this line exactly ?

(I've tried just adding the line into this .css file and it did not seem to do anything)

perhaps bad example... isnt the background for detroit skin already white? did you change the color to non white?

sorry, at work and cant really dig into a test case, but can tonight...

a link to your site would be helpful too...

What I'm looking for is changing the background of the row (in the table)

Example :

http://www.corelan.be:8800/ind.....llector-1/

The first 2 topics in the table are pinned/locked... I would like to change the background of these 2 rows into something else, so they would stand out more than they do today

add in this code

#sforum .sfforumtable tr.sfpinnedtopic td {
background-color: #000000 !important;
}

and of course pick the color that you want...
