Hi,

I would like to propose that we change the default colors for tables from grey and darker grey to something more attractive. golden hour uses great colors and this would really enhance the look and feel. perhaps a light blue and, for the sort-by column, a brighter blue? i'm not a color expert but i think anything would be an improvement.

thanks for listening!

I accept your proposal.
Let me know when you're finished with the changes and I'll take a look at what you came up with.

Sure. I'd be glad to. Only thing is that I'm a little confused as to how to impact these.

What I was talking about were the tables that i have inserted into pages using the insert view module. I went to the golden hour style sheet and played around with the colors there but they did not impact the view tables. i changed all the colors in the tables section of the sheet to black (#fff) yet the tables remained grey.

Can you guide me as to where these view colors are determined? Perhaps they have nothing to do with the main theme?

I would also like to make the same changes to the table colors used for the forums module as well.

thanks for you guidance.

The forum module (part of core) includes its own style sheet => forum.css

As for styling your views, the views module includes Views Theme Wizard (views_theme_wizard.module).

See also:

style.css (line 392)

tr.even {
background-color:#FFFFFF;
}

and style.css (line 387)

tr.even, tr.odd, tbody th {
border-color:#D5D6D7;
border-style:solid;
border-width:1px 0pt;
}

almost forgot...

system.css (line 9)

tr.even, tr.odd {
background-color:#EEEEEE;
border-bottom:1px solid #CCCCCC;
padding:0.1em 0.6em;
}

You can take the above from system.css and put it into the theme's style sheet (make your changes to the colors) and it will override the system's styles for the tables.
