How do we change the category (blue panels) so the color matches each forum colors. Do you have a css code we can use? Seems there should be some flexibility - maybe there is we just can find it. Thanks !!

Hi,

Please check the Color #9 option in the "Forum Styles" section. For more information, please visit: https://wpforo.com/docs/wpforo-v2/settings/colors-styles/

My apologies for not being clear and specific. The category (blue panels)  are the colors I want to change - as they all sit under one forum. Currently each category is = blue (color) however say we pick green as the category color. When a user views the forum the categories are "all blue" and are not distinct in color. The response you initially provided spoke specifically to "forums" not "categories within a forum" remember we are asking to change the category (blue panels) and not the main forum colors.

Please provide us with the URL of your forum so we can offer a suitable CSS solution. We'll need to see the layout you're using. It would also be helpful if you could include a screenshot showing exactly what you’d like to change. This will ensure we fully understand your request.

Please note the attached image with the arrows pointing to the category (blue panels) colors I want to change. I am not sure what is so confusing as the request has been straightforward. You cannot access the forum as it is for members only. I await your prompt response.

Use the CSS code below: 

#wpforo #wpforo-wrap .wpforo-category {
    background-color: #660000  !important;
    border-bottom: 3px solid #660000  !important;;
}

Insert the CSS Code in the "Custom CSS Code" textarea in the wpForo > Settings > Colors & Styles admin page.

The red-marked values should be changed as you like.

Thank you for the css - however, your css changes "every" category to the same color which has not resolved your coding issue - in essence, they are all still the same color just different than the default. Please note the attached pic with another explanation. The category panels would most likely be controlled at the "Categories and Forums" screen. Please advise a solution. Thank you.
