Frequently Asked Questions.
Q. Why are all the groups / users are the same color?
A. For those of you not familiar with, or have issue with html markup, here is a quick guide.
Username HTML Markup. ACP --> Usergroups --> Usergroup Manager edit each usergroup, you will need to add the html to the two input fields found in the setting, Username HTML Markup.
NOTE: Your field boxes won't be as wide as the ones in the image, I over-sized them for illustration purposes.
The first field is the opening tag. The second field is the closing tag. These tags will be inserted around the user's username like this:
Some HTML tags you might want to use here include:
Example 1
First field
Second field
Example 2
First field
Second field
You can also do combinations by using more than one attribute in the style property.
Q. Wait, I have different colored styles, it is very difficult to choose a color to work on them all, what can I do?
A. Well then you should use this solution. It will take time to set up for each usergroup, but it's worth it.
First off add this code to your additional.css templates for all your styles.
In each style you can define a different color for each group.
You can add more groups or change the names as you wish.
Example 1
First field
Second field
Example 2
First field
Second field
Remember to change the class to the usergroup you are working with.
