zicus Report post Posted March 12, 2014 Would it be possible to chance appearence of quotes so they could be easily spotted between or in front of new text. Maybe quotes should be in italic by default or some kind of box around them. It's really frustrating to read the forum since there is no way to tell where quote ends and new text starts (only scrolling back and reading the original posts again).

darrock Report post Posted March 12, 2014 This problem started in the last forum update. And sadly, we haven't as yet found a way to fix it. However, if you go to the lower left, select 'Change Theme', and select 'IP Board', it will make the quoting easier to read. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ladrilho Report post Posted March 12, 2014 I have a Greasemonkey script that fixes it if someone is interested: // ==UserScript== // @name EL Forum Quote Section Fix // @namespace eternal-lands // @description Custom style for Quote sections // @include http://www.eternal-lands.com/forum/* // @version 1 // @grant none // ==/UserScript== function addGlobalStyle(css) { var head, style; head = document.getElementsByTagName('head')[0]; if (!head) { return; } style = document.createElement('style'); style.type = 'text/css'; style.innerHTML = css; head.appendChild(style); } addGlobalStyle('.ipsBlockquote { border-left: 2px solid rgb(122, 101, 80); }'); addGlobalStyle('.ipsBlockquote { border-right: 2px solid rgb(122, 101, 80); }'); addGlobalStyle('.ipsBlockquote { border-bottom: 2px solid rgb(122, 101, 80); }'); addGlobalStyle('.ipsBlockquote { border-top: 1px solid rgb(122, 101, 80); }'); addGlobalStyle('.ipsBlockquote { background-color: rgb(217,198,150); }'); addGlobalStyle('.ipsBlockquote { padding: 5px; }'); addGlobalStyle('.topic_list { background-color: rgb(217, 190, 123); }'); addGlobalStyle('.topic_list { border-left: 1px solid rgb(87, 71, 56); }'); addGlobalStyle('.topic_list { border-right: 1px solid rgb(87, 71, 56); }'); addGlobalStyle('#quickNavLaunch span { background: url("http://www.eternal-lands.com/forum/public/style_images/master/icon_quicknav.png"); }'); addGlobalStyle('#quickNavLaunch:hover span { background: url("http://www.eternal-lands.com/forum/public/style_images/master/icon_quicknav.png"); }'); addGlobalStyle('.post_id a img.small { max-height: 12px; margin-left: 3px; margin-top: -2px; opacity: 0.5; }'); addGlobalStyle('.ipsButton_extra { line-height: 22px; height: 22px; font-size: 11px; margin-left: 5px; color: rgb(122, 101, 80); background-color: rgb(217, 190, 123); border: 1px solid rgb(122, 101, 80) ; border-radius: 4px 4px 4px 4px; padding-left: 1px;padding-right: 1px;}'); addGlobalStyle('.ipsBox { border-left: 1px solid rgb(87, 71, 56); }'); addGlobalStyle('.ipsBox { border-right: 1px solid rgb(87, 71, 56); }'); // Fix share links var images = document.getElementsByTagName('img'); for ( var i = 0; i < images.length; i++ ) { if ( images[i].src == "http://www.eternal-lands.com/forum/public/style_images/Eternal-Lands/icon_share.png" ) { images[i].src = "http://www.eternal-lands.com/forum/public/style_images/master/icon_share.png"; } } Result Before: After: Note: In the Greasemonkey script I changes some other stuff that are not displaying correctly.

Aislinn Report post Posted March 13, 2014 Nice bruno ramos, it works for me in Firefox. Now to see if I can hack it into Seamonkey (no greasemonkey for Seamonkey that I'm aware of). Thank you! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DarElik Report post Posted March 14, 2014 Nobody has access to the style sheets or templates?? Just add: .ipsBlockquote { background-color: #D9C696; border-bottom: 2px solid #7A6550; border-left: 2px solid #7A6550; border-right: 2px solid #7A6550; border-radius: 0 0 5px 5px; padding: 5px; } to [root]/forum/public/style_css/css_13/ipb_styles.css and nobody has to 'monkey' it up.

Thank you. Shift refresh without using grease monkey and it should look better. Based on what I saw in the system default, the more proper place was actually ips_common.css Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Based on what I saw in the system default, the more proper place was actually ips_common.css Yeah, I thought of ips_comman first, actually, but didn't spend a whole lot of time comparing the two to see where the natural fit was. Was kind of leaning more toward 'git-r-dun' mode. Anyway, thanks, Learner, looks great now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
