Changes in the CSS not included in the package:
- Add fixed font family. If you are using other vB5 themes or a third-party theme that is not using Arial as the default font, the "Topic Starter" text may not fit in the ribbon. Thanks NumNum for catching this issue.
In the ribbon CSS insert this under .vmtr-topic-starter #post:before and inside { and }.
Code:font-family: Arial, sans-serif;
- In some themes (default or third-party) where links have underline on hover or by itself, the ribbon may inherit that style.
To remove the text underline from the ribbon, insert this under .vmtr-topic-starter #post and inside { and }.
Code:text-decoration: none;
- Add gradient and shadow to the ribbon (Optional). If you want to add gradient and shadow to add some depth to the ribbon, you can make some adjustments to the CSS.
In the same ribbon CSS mentioned in #1, replace this line:
Code:background-color: #fc7f00;
Code:background: #fc7f00; background: -moz-linear-gradient(top, #ffb76b 0%, #ffa73d 37%, #ff7c00 51%, #ff7f04 100%); /* FF3.6-15 */ background: -webkit-linear-gradient(top, #ffb76b 0%,#ffa73d 37%,#ff7c00 51%,#ff7f04 100%); /* Chrome10-25,Safari5.1-6 */ background: linear-gradient(to bottom, #ffb76b 0%,#ffa73d 37%,#ff7c00 51%,#ff7f04 100%); /* W3C, IE10+, FF16+, Chrome26+, Opera12+, Safari7+ */ filter: progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.gradient( startColorstr='#ffb76b', endColorstr='#ff7f04',GradientType=0 ); /* IE6-9 */ box-shadow: 3px 3px 4px rgba(0,0,0,.3);
