.calendar_today Issues

[Skhilled]

I'm pretty sure I've done something wrong somewhere but I can't change the background for the current date in the calendar:

The number is bolder. Maybe investigating that will help you solve this.

I just did it in the inspect web developer thing in FF.

You might have to do it inline though I'm not sure. You could add maybe:

days calendar_today
background-color: red;

to the css and see what happens.

[Skhilled]

For which element?

[Bigguy]

Make your own:

.days calendar_today

or:

#days calendar_today

Then add that line I said. All I did was go to inspect...after that in the second window at the bottom under "This element". I typed in:

background color: red;

It changed it. I also noticed in the first window it had added to the:

Td class= "days windowsbg"

now one of them says Td class= "days calendar_today" style= "background-color: red;" I will upload a screenshot of what I see.

Hope this helps a bit.

Ok, I'm not sure what is wrong but it does work with the "element" but not with either of the codes you've given me. The funny thing is that it used to work before but now I have no idea what's going on.

To make matters works, this kooky keyboard keeps acting up on me.   Me thinks that's part of the problem if not the whole problem.

[Bigguy]

Try putting it inline.

[Skhilled]

Ok, I sort of found out what's going on. LOL I had changed all of the days' background color so they would all be the same and that's what is preventing it from showing. Now, I have to narrow it down to getting all of the backgrounds the same color except for the current day.

[Bigguy]

Glad ya got it figured.

[Skhilled]

Almost... LOL I did forget to mention this should be the code for it:

Code Select Expand

#main_grid .calendar_today {
  background: red;
}
But it only works for the main grid. I'm having the same issue with the month grid now and it won't change. I may have to start over so I can figure out what's wrong. The good thing about starting over only for the calendar.css file is that it's a small file. LOL

[Skhilled]

I didn't have to start over and think I fixed it all!

How does it look now?

It looks good, but when you hover over today's date the number is hard to see cause it turns white. Also, the 31st of July looks highlighted a bit, along with the first second and third of September for some reason. They don't look like today's date but they are white.

Ah! I didn't notice that...thanks!

EDIT: Fixed.

That's because they are "disabled" for the current month. The one at the top is from the previous month and the ones at the bottom are for next month. That is how SMF and a lot of themes do it but I was debating on making them the same color as the days of the current month.
