I want to chaneg to colors of the buttons only.
Can someone give me some pointers please?
sure i can. here's what you do.
i'll give an example where you change just the 'Forum Options' button.
open up /templates/default/postlist.tpl
find:
<table width="100%" class="t_standard">
<tr>
<td class="tdheader" style="cursor: pointer" id="options_control" onclick="showHideMenu('options_control','options_popup')">
{$lang.FORUM_OPTIONS} <img style="vertical-align: middle" src="{$config.BASE_URL}/images/{$style_array.general}/toggle_open.gif" alt="" />
</td></tr>
</table>
note where it says 'class="tdheader"' .. that's the style that is shared by all. since you want to be specific for just buttons, you can use the 'Cascade' in Css and add another class like so:
<table width="100%" class="t_standard">
<tr>
<td class="tdheader muhaha" style="cursor: pointer" id="options_control" onclick="showHideMenu('options_control','options_popup')">
{$lang.FORUM_OPTIONS} <img style="vertical-align: middle" src="{$config.BASE_URL}/images/{$style_array.general}/toggle_open.gif" alt="" />
</td></tr>
</table>
now all you have to do is go to your styles editor and edit the style in questions.
go down to the Extra CSS section and paste this in it:
.muhaha {
background: hotpink;
color: #000;
}for example. now when the browser renders that button, it cascades to the second class, which overrides the tdheader for background and color.
obviousely you aren't going with hotpink, but i use that as an example. also, you probably aren't going to use 'muhaha' either, but more likely a descriptive name like '.my-buttons'
you can do this for other parts of that template to style the other buttons as well.
now as for the pager stuff, it's a different story and once you get this first part, i can show you how to do your pager
