In the previous version of DT Register the "Register", "Attendees" and "Closed" buttons were images and I had uploaded different image colours so that the Register button was green, the Attendees button was blue, and the Closed button was red.

With the update to 3.7.0 and going from images to css is it possible to change the colours for each "button"? I've played with the css file a bit but it doesn't appear that we can have independent colours for each button?

Thanks for the insight/help,

S

The buttons all share a global color, just like they always have. However, I just modified the package as we had to update for a couple quick fixes to 3.2.0a (which you can now download) and you can customize each button via CSS separately now.

The main.css file has elements like this:

span.event_button.red {
    background: #ff0000;
    color: #fff;
}

Now each button has an additional class name that corresponds to its function. You have these class names: register, full, closed, details, attendees. So you could customize all Attendees buttons despite your color config selection like:

span.event_button.attendees {
    background: yellow;
    color: #000;
}

Hope this helps!

Being able to customize the colour and hover colour of all the buttons is a great improvement. Thanks for adding it so quickly to 3.2.0a Check this box to be notified of replies to this topic.

You're welcome.

Yes, the main.css file has always been and will always be open for editing. This is noted in the readme file that the file is overwritten in updates and to back up your file if you have edited it.

Something you can consider is taking the items you modify and copy / pasting them into your template's CSS file. That may help you not have to re-apply those updates. If the template CSS doesn't override the main.css file, then you could always add "!important" to those items. Just something to consider.
