Changing Message URL Colors
Ever wondered how to make your post message URLs stand out a little more than usual then this simple template modification is for you.

This modification is for the Element skin by www.vbstyles.com
Purchase here: * Michaelmbers/signup.php" target="_blank">http://www.vbstyles.com/members/signup.php

If there are those out there whom are like me and want to be able to change the style of URLs in post messages but now elsewhere outside then this is the modification for you. All i am doing is adding in a couple of CSS styles and making a simplistic template modification.

Firstly pop over to Styles Manager > {Your Specified Style} > Main CSS. Now find Additional CSS Definitions which is featured as a table directly at the bottom of the page; in either text add in the following code at the bottom:

HTML Code (How To?)

.post_message
{
background: #E4E6F5;
color: #4D528C;
border-left: 1px solid #FFFFFF;
border-top: 1px solid #FFFFFF;
}
.post_message a:link
{
color: #6F76BD;
text-decoration: none;
}
.post_message a:visited
{
color: #6F76BD;
text-decoration: none;
}
.post_message a:hover, .post_message a:active
{
color: #555BA1;
text-decoration: underline;
}

Once that has been done, move over to Edit Templates > Postbit and find the following code:

Code (How To?)

<td class="alt1" id="collapseobj_postbit_$post[postid]" style="{$GLOBALS['vbcollapse']['collapseobj_postbit_' . $post[postid]]};"><!-- message, attachments, sig -->

And replace this with:

Code (How To?)

<td class="post_message" id="collapseobj_postbit_$post[postid]" style="{$GLOBALS['vbcollapse']['collapseobj_postbit_' . $post[postid]]};"><!-- message, attachments, sig -->

For those running the new Postbit Legacy version, courtesy of Tomek then find the following:

Code (How To?)

<td class="alt1" width="100%" valign="top">
<table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" border="0" width="100%">

And replace this with:

Code (How To?)

<td class="post_message" width="100%" valign="top">
<table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" border="0" width="100%">
