autolink color coded

[bigtree]

I would like the option to select a different color for the autolinks.
Why? so we could distinguish between wiki links and out links. Save members whom already know what these terms mean, from mousing over all the autolinks.

good idea?

In the next build, you'll be able to customize the style of wiki links by modifying the CSS class .vw-link

[bigtree]

bonus!

I've upgraded to 3 now.
I want the autolinks to be colored to #6B4113 Could you be so kind to tell me what, where and how I do this?

Thanks!

For now, you can add the following to your additional.css:

.vw-link { color: #6B4113; }

[bigtree]

CP>VaultWiki>Wiki Style Manager

then where? I don't see additional.css:

Thanks!

additional.css is a standard vB 4 template that never gets updated when vBulletin or a mod upgrades.

Sorry to keep asking but I haven't added things like this before, and vb is all new to me. Do I add this via the admincp or a file on what line?

[bigtree]

ah, finally figured it out,

thanks!

+1 This is a good idea.

Is there a different method for vB 3.8.x users?
I tried the second text area in additional CSS located at Styles & Templates > Style Manager > Main CSS but it didn't work.

It's kind of annoying to have both links and autolinks in the same color!
thanks,

Links in vB 3.8 have overqualified CSS. This means you have to make long selectors for it to work correctly. Example:

.vw-content a.vw-link, .alt1 a.vw-link, .alt2 a.vw-link { color: blue; }

[bigtree]

Has this changed for this build now or do I still add this to the vb4 additional.css: ?

[bigtree]

For those wondering how to do this:

admincp> styles & templates>Style Manager>Edit templates>CSS Templates> additional.css

add the code below or your desired #color.

Cheers!


.vw-link { color: #6B4113; }
