Hey

I have a couple more questions if you dont mind but figured it would be better sticking them in here rather then cluttering the place with a new thread:

1: how do i chage the button colours, (ie you have the submit reply button red here, on my site its blue, if i want to change that to a different colour which bit am i looking at here :-/

2: Im looking to integrate cubepoints' rank readout into the forum so that it shows under the avatars to save me hunting can you point me to the right php file?

3: is there support for a "preview" button alongside the submit and cancle buttons?

i might have a few more later but theyre the few quick ones i have off the top of my head

Depends what SP theme you are using. Is it a theme with overlay support or a CSS only version?

2: Im looking to integrate cubepoints' rank readout into the forum so that it shows under the avatars to save me hunting can you point me to the right php file?

You will need the templates folder in your SP theme. We are talking here of the topic view - i.e., a single topic displaying the topic posts - so the template in question is spTopicView.php. if you take a look through that you will see the flow of the elements s they display and should easily fund the avatar template function.

3: is there support for a "preview" button alongside the submit and cancle buttons?

Sadly and currently lacking. This is because it is really quite hard to do but - I have made a promise to anyone who will listen that I am going to tackle this once and for all as soon as possible - which basically means when we are through the teething period of V5! So - hopefuly - not too long now.

i might have a few more later but theyre the few quick ones i have off the top of my head

In that case you need to locate the CSS for the

#spMainContainer input.spSubmit

class which is about two-thirds of the way through the (big) file. You can change the background there. But - it might be bleed through from your WP theme. Firebug or most modern browser inspectors can tell you what CSS is being applied to any display element or with a link (and provided I can get to the button in question) I can also take a look.
