"Sticky" topic color

Post by wolverine » Thu Apr 07, 2011 1:44 am

In some of the forums there are so many "stickys" before the new topics that it slows down the forum browsing. Is there any way to make the "Stickys" topic lines a different color than the new topic postings?

What preferred theme are you using in the forum settings? I'm using clean slate and it is easy to tell the difference in the posts.

Marc,

I'm just using the standard black on white.

Try using "Clean Slate" If you are using what I think you are, it is harder to see the differences between the posts.

Is this what your screen looks like?

This is "Clean Slate" and is what i am using. It seems to be easier to tell the difference between what is a sticky and an active post.

I've got the "clean slate" model. I guess that I'm just trying to find a faster way to pass by all the stickys to where the new posts start.

When I come on to the forum, I scroll down to the Active Discussions and check those first. If I don't see the topic I'm looking for, I then search through the main discussion topics, Off Topic, Bass Fishing, etc.

If I don't see the topic I'm looking for or forget where it was on the forum, I do a search. It usually pops up then.
