Unable to see Product Options

[1996 328ti]

I've selected text and has been working up until now.
Recently updated vB to 4.1.8 and notice that the text is white so it blends with the background.

Where would I fix that?


Added:
I added to the additional.css template

Content visible to verified customers only.

Seems to work now. Will something break elsewhere?

I beleive I discussed this elsewhere but its actually what I would consider a vb 4.18 css bug. They set the background to white and then also set the text to white.

You need to edit the popupmenu.css in vbulletin and change the white color to the black color in that css.

I read something about the the addtional.css template and the styles directory.
I didn't really understand though. Firebug pointed out the css code to me.

I'll take a look at the popupmenu.css code also.

Thanks.

Added: I guess by adding the code to additional.css, it overwrites the popmenu.css template.
One less thing I need to revert when updating.

All I can tell you is that editing the popmenu css template and changing the code to #000000 worked for me.

The problem as I see it is the background for the popup menu is white set in vb and then they set in the popupmenu css the actual text to white. This simply is wrong if you ask me.

We are saying the same thing.

Agreed.

Thanks.

LOL well you said adding it to additional.css worked. Either one works I guess it is all about correcting the color mismatch.

Please, wich line have you reverted to I' ve changed

.blockhead .popupbody li > a {
color:{vb:stylevar blockhead_link_color};

to

.blockhead .popupbody li > a {
color:#000000;

In one default popmenu.css without chance

Perhaps there is one other option there?

[Chuck S]

your coding is not exzactly as we posted dont know if leaving a space or not affects it but this in popupmenu.css template

Content visible to verified customers only.

I can not comment further on what your doing without seeing a site link.

I tried to add the code to additional.css but it doesn't work. I looked for the above ".blockhead .popupbody li > a" in popupmenu.css but it isn't there.

There are quite a few settings for PopupMenus in the stylevars for each style. popupmenu_link_color is already set to black but it doesn't make a difference in the Product Options list. All other popup menus on the site appear fine and follow the rules in the stylevars.

Does anyone have this problem in vB version 4.1.10?

[Chuck S]

anything I did suggested here works fine. Like I said the issue is your setting the text color to the white color same as background in the css. I beleive the popupmenu.css is the one you want to edit and change the color to black not white.

[Wulf]

Are you on version 4.1.10?

I don't have that code in my popupmenu.css. I do have this:

As far as I understand, it is referring to "color: {vb:stylevar popupmenu_link_color};" for the text color.

[Chuck S]

You can try setting the color link to #000000

I am indeed using 4.1.10 and my links are black.

All the other popup menus on the forum display fine so it must have something to do with this popup. I have a style (Black Stealth) with white text on a dark background and text in Product Options isn't displayed either.

Never mind, I found some other threads about this setting: Use Icons versus Text Links?

Apparently, you can't have both.

[Chuck S]

No you can not.

so your issue really is you where electing to use icons and expected text to be there
