Forum:How do I change the color of usernames?

I wanted to know, if there was a way to change the color of usernames, and how? Like when your name shows on recent activity it shows in black, or red, or any color you want. Thanks. ~ilovepeeta~  "Because she came here with me. . ." 02:21, June 28, 2012 (UTC)


 * Go to MediaWiki:Wikia.css of your wiki and paste this there:

a[href="/wiki/User:~ilovepeeta~"] { color:Red !important; }


 * If you want to change the color link, simply replace the color typed above with another color, like "pink" if you want a pink color link, or "DarkBlue", if you want a dark blue color link. And if you intend on changing the color link of different user, type their username in place of yours, and the link to their user page will receive similar changes.


 * Um, its not working...I think its cause of the special characters in my username. When I try it for other people it works, but when its for mine it doesnt. Help? ~ilovepeeta~   "Because she came here with me. . ."  18:00, June 28, 2012 (UTC)
 * I think I know why it's not working. Just give me a few seconds. Have to get the code for the special character. Jazzi  18:13, June 28, 2012 (UTC)

Add the following into MediaWiki:Common.css on your wiki  and then add the following to MediaWiki:Wikia.css to your wiki    Jazzi  18:20, June 28, 2012 (UTC)


 * Ok I did it, and it still doesnt work. Am I doing something wrong? | This is the wiki. ~ilovepeeta~   "Because she came here with me. . ."  18:29, June 28, 2012 (UTC)

In w:c:pieclub:MediaWiki:Wikia.css...
 * 1) You need to replace the word WIKINAME with pieclub
 * 2) The import statement is at the bottom. That won't work. It must be at the top.


 * Ok thanks so much to all of you! It worked :) ~ilovepeeta~   "Because she came here with me. . ."  18:41, June 28, 2012 (UTC)
 * Glad it worked! If you ever need any help just open another forum or message me. Jazzi  18:45, June 28, 2012 (UTC)
