Hello!
Am new to this board, but have searched quite extensively and have found lots of great stuff, thanks so far! Here's the scoop:

UBB Classic Version 6.7.0
http://www.technicalblog.com
Login: test
Password: tester

I am looking for the place to modify the links on the Forum Summary Page. I'd like to remove the underlining and bold.
I have modified public_common and public_forum summary somewhat and guessing that there is some HTML to add there, but not sure where, or if they are the right files. I am not a CGI guy, but can hack away.

I did see the Colorforums hack (looks awesome), but that seems to be a lot of work, also noticed that UBB is going PHP soon, so I would rather not put in the time for colorforums and modifying CSS.

Anyways, thanks smile for all the great info. so far, and if anyone can help I am all ears! laugh

You can add something like this to your headerinsert styles section:

Code:
<style type="text/css">
a:link {
	text-decoration: none;
}
</style>
That will remove the underlines, to edit the bolding out you'd need to edit the public_forum_summary.pl template smile

Thanks!
I had something like that but included Visited links as well. Took it out though, so it wouldn't interfere with code changing, which has been unsuccessful.

I guessed public_fourm_summary.pl as I mentioned before but have no idea where to edit in that file. please help!

Another kewl thing I saw on a few UBB's was a sort of link that gradually changed from one color to another when you hovered on it. Slick stuff, is that only available in Colorforums?

Any more guidance?
And thanks again! smile

The a: link would cover all links - active, visited, hovered, etc.

If you want the hover effect you'll want to include a different color for a: hover {

To remove the boldings on the summary page you'd look for the <b> and </b> in that file.

At approximately line 120 of public_forum_summary.pl, you'll see the following...
Code:
<font size="$vars_style{TextSize}" face="$vars_style{FontFace}"><b>
<a href="$ULTIMATEBB{"ubb=forum;f=$x"}">$ForumName</a>
</b>
remove the <b> and </b> and reupload the file
