Can anyone tell me what template this PM alert banner is located in? I want to change the color of the fonts but can't find the template it's located in. I'm using the 2.0 Inspired theme.

Thanks for any help you could give me.

Thank you very much. That is where I changed the background to red and the message font to white. I wasn't very clear in my first post but what I want to do is change the from name and title shown in what looks like a blue font to white also. So I'm looking for the template to modify the blue font to white.

Thanks again!

The template is:
Global Templates > global_pm_alert

Thank you. I'm sorry for my ignorance but I don't see where you would change the font color for the "from" name and the "title". Here's the code in that template.

<div class="pm_alert" id="pm_notice">
	<div class="float_right"><a href="private.php?action=dismiss_notice&amp;my_post_key={$mybb->post_code}" title="{$lang->dismiss_notice}" onclick="return MyBB.dismissPMNotice()"><img src="{$theme['imgdir']}/dismiss_notice.gif" 
alt="{$lang->dismiss_notice}" title="[x]" /></a></div>
	<div>{$privatemessage_text}</div>
</div>
<br />

I made this change in the global.language.php file and I got the "title" font to be white but I don't know if that's a good way to do it or not. I haven't figured out how to get the "from" name in white by modifying that file though.

Modified:

<strong>You have one unread private message</strong> from {1} titled <a href="private.php?action=read&amp;pmid={2}" 
style="font-weight: bold; color: #ffffff";>{3}</a>

Original:

<strong>You have one unread private message</strong> from {1} titled <a href="private.php?action=read&amp;pmid={2}" 
style="font-weight: bold;">{3}</a>

Thanks for all of the help.

^ though adding style in a language file doesn't affect much, I feel its better to use required style in global.css
like .pm_alert a {color: #ffffff; font-weight: bold;}

You have to change the from name's and title's font color this way in global.css:

.pm_alert a:link, .pm_alert a:visited {
color: #ff0000;
}

more?

.pm_alert a:hover, .pm_alert a:active {
color: #00ff00;
}

Thanks guys.

Like this?

.pm_alert {
	background: #B22222;
	color: #FFFFFF;
	border: 1px solid #FFD324;
	text-align: center;
	padding: 5px 20px;
	margin-bottom: 15px;
	-webkit-border-radius: 3px;
	-moz-border-radius: 3px;
	border-radius: 3px;
	font-size: 12px;
        a:link, a:visited {color: #ffffff;}
}

I'm new to PHP, obvious I know, so please bare with me.

No, if you want to change the link text color you must use css anchor pseudo classes.

This is CSS, not PHP.
