I would like to change the style format of how the blog category listings. Specifically, I want to change the look of the link, visible, hover, and active. I tired adding a new class to the sidebar class, but that didn't seem to do anything.

I'm guessing I have to modify the bocat.php file, but it seems to be encoded. How do I modify it?

Thanks.

to modify anything on the blog appearance, you need to edit the blog template, you dont need to touch any files, because they contain just php code and read everything from the templates.

Just see what you need to style from the html source of the blog output and in the css styling of the template write your own styling..

Perhaps I'm doing something wrong. I tried updating the sidebar class, but that didn't work. I also created a new class (sidebarlinks)

.sidebarlink {
link { color: #000000;}
visited { color: #000000;}
hover { color: #000000; }
active { color: #000000; }
}

and implemented it as a span:

<span class="sidebarlink">%%CATEGORIES%%</span>

However, that did not change anything.

I also tried a div tag, but also nothing.

<div class="sidebarlink">%%CATEGORIES%%</div>

well, the things you did are wrong.

When you take a look at the blog output source code, you will see that the links for the categories have class="bocat"

so you need to style that class. put like
.bocat {
YOUR STYLING HERE
}

in your css stylesheet and it should work..

Thanks!

For some reason just specifying .bocat didn't work. I eventually got it to work via:

a.bocat:link { color: #F60;}
a.bocat:visited { color: #900;}
a.bocat:hover { color: #F33; }
a.bocat:active { color: #B2F511; }

I only mention it as an FYI in case someone else has a similar problem.

Thanks again for your help.
