Make Admin Posts have a different BG color than other people - JakeA - 2012-07-10

Such as the support team here, how would I make it so admin posts stick out with a bg color without using a plugin for it?

Thanks Smile

That didn't work, unfortunately. Sad

It makes no sense as to why this doesn't work, it's so simple!

Couple of things;

- Make sure you're editing the right template set.
- Make sure you're adding the proper class, with proper class name in global.css

Can you please post your website's URL?

Sorry for the trouble. I figured it out. You might want to edit your tutorial as this is what fixed it:

Change:

{$post['gid']}

To:

{$post['usergroup']}

Not exactly sure why this worked, but it did.

In case you still want it,
