Alternating Row Colors Instead of Columns

Rather have your rows alternate colors instead of your columns on your forumhome?

No prob.

If you do not wish to replace the entire template, what you should do conceptually is to change any instance of the class=alt1 or class=alt2 to the conditional:


Block Disabled:      (Update License Status)  
Suspended or Unlicensed Members Cannot View Code.

The KEY to this working right is to make sure your forumdisplay orders are set correctly.

Than you I had help with the mechanics of it from Ed Sullivan last night. Once he told me math was possible in the conditionals, I realized that we are going to be able to have a lot of fun without ever having to install any hacks.

Definently, Template modifying is just as much fun as hacking can be, and easier to save on upgrades. Has all the plus's.

Yes, that does look a whole lot better than the alternating columns, better readibility. Great job Amy, looking forward to seeing more from you.

Indeed, I'm tricking out my forumhome everywhere to make the descriptions half-automated

It would be with regards to the forums on forumdisplay, I don't think you would need to do anything more to get the same effect.

The threads, however, would demand an entirely different approach, and I'm not sure you would be able to do anything like it without hacking. Unfortunately. I would very much like to create such an effect for the threads on my forum display.

Is this hack available for version 2.3.2?

I could not find one. And no one answered my previous request.
