It is defined in the stylesheet.css. The following classes are relevant to the categories box:

 

1. infoBoxHeading;

2. infoBox;

3. infoBoxContents;

4. boxText.

 

Not all of them have fonts defined, though.

CHANGE CATEGORY FONT COLOR

 

Look for this code in catalog/includes/boxes/categories.php

 

$categories_string .= '<a href="';

 

if ($tree[$counter]['parent'] == 0) {

$cPath_new = 'cPath=' . $counter;

} else {

$cPath_new = 'cPath=' . $tree[$counter]['path'];

}

 

$categories_string .= tep_href_link(FILENAME_DEFAULT, $cPath_new) . '">';

 

if (isset($cPath_array) && in_array($counter, $cPath_array)) {

$categories_string .= '<b>';

}

 

// display category name

$categories_string .= $tree[$counter]['name'];

 

if (isset($cPath_array) && in_array($counter, $cPath_array)) {

$categories_string .= '</b>';

 

}

 

if (tep_has_category_subcategories($counter)) {

$categories_string .= '->';

}

 

$categories_string .= '</a>';

 

---------------------------------------------

 

Change to:

 

$categories_string .= '<a href="';

 

if ($tree[$counter]['parent'] == 0) {

$cPath_new = 'cPath=' . $counter;

} else {

$cPath_new = 'cPath=' . $tree[$counter]['path'];

}

 

$categories_string .= tep_href_link(FILENAME_DEFAULT, $cPath_new) . '"><font color="#000000">';

 

if (isset($cPath_array) && in_array($counter, $cPath_array)) {

$categories_string .= '<b>';

}

 

// display category name

$categories_string .= $tree[$counter]['name'];

 

if (isset($cPath_array) && in_array($counter, $cPath_array)) {

$categories_string .= '</b>';

 

}

 

if (tep_has_category_subcategories($counter)) {

$categories_string .= '->';

}

 

$categories_string .= '</font></a>';

 

*note: #000000 is balck

 

This will change the color of the text in the Cataegories box. If you want to change the color of the number beside the category "(3)" also do this:

 

In the on the same page look for this code:

//------------------------

if (tep_not_null($cPath)) {

$new_path = '';

reset($cPath_array);

while (list($key, $value) = each($cPath_array)) {

unset($parent_id);

unset($first_id);

$categories_query = tep_db_query("select c.categories_id, cd.categories_name, c.parent_id from " . TABLE_CATEGORIES . " c, " . TABLE_CATEGORIES_DESCRIPTION . " cd where c.parent_id = '" . (int)$value . "' and c.categories_id = cd.categories_id and cd.language_id='" . (int)$languages_id ."' order by sort_order, cd.categories_name");

if (tep_db_num_rows($categories_query)) {

$new_path .= $value;

while ($row = tep_db_fetch_array($categories_query)) {

$tree[$row['categories_id']] = array('name' => $row['categories_name'],

'parent' => $row['parent_id'],

'level' => $key+1,

'path' => $new_path . '_' . $row['categories_id'],

'next_id' => false);

 

if (isset($parent_id)) {

$tree[$parent_id]['next_id'] = $row['categories_id'];

}

 

$parent_id = $row['categories_id'];

 

if (!isset($first_id)) {

$first_id = $row['categories_id'];

}

 

$last_id = $row['categories_id'];

}

$tree[$last_id]['next_id'] = $tree[$value]['next_id'];

$tree[$value]['next_id'] = $first_id;

$new_path .= '_';

} else {

break;

}

}

}

tep_show_category($first_element);

 

$info_box_contents = array();

$info_box_contents[] = array('text' => $categories_string);

 

new infoBox($info_box_contents);

?>

</td>

</tr>

<!-- categories_eof //-->

 

 

 

Change to:

 

$categories_string .= '<font color="#000000">';

//------------------------

if (tep_not_null($cPath)) {

$new_path = '';

reset($cPath_array);

while (list($key, $value) = each($cPath_array)) {

unset($parent_id);

unset($first_id);

$categories_query = tep_db_query("select c.categories_id, cd.categories_name, c.parent_id from " . TABLE_CATEGORIES . " c, " . TABLE_CATEGORIES_DESCRIPTION . " cd where c.parent_id = '" . (int)$value . "' and c.categories_id = cd.categories_id and cd.language_id='" . (int)$languages_id ."' order by sort_order, cd.categories_name");

if (tep_db_num_rows($categories_query)) {

$new_path .= $value;

while ($row = tep_db_fetch_array($categories_query)) {

$tree[$row['categories_id']] = array('name' => $row['categories_name'],

'parent' => $row['parent_id'],

'level' => $key+1,

'path' => $new_path . '_' . $row['categories_id'],

'next_id' => false);

 

if (isset($parent_id)) {

$tree[$parent_id]['next_id'] = $row['categories_id'];

}

 

$parent_id = $row['categories_id'];

 

if (!isset($first_id)) {

$first_id = $row['categories_id'];

}

 

$last_id = $row['categories_id'];

}

$tree[$last_id]['next_id'] = $tree[$value]['next_id'];

$tree[$value]['next_id'] = $first_id;

$new_path .= '_';

} else {

break;

}

}

}

tep_show_category($first_element);

 

$info_box_contents = array();

$info_box_contents[] = array('text' => $categories_string);

 

new infoBox($info_box_contents);

$categories_string .= '</font>';

?>

</td>

</tr>

<!-- categories_eof //-->

Thank you very much for the fast reply :)

 

 

I don't seem to find the relevance between your code and my code. Maybe beacuse I am a beginner. I tried different times but It gave me white page.

The problem with editing stylesheet.css to change the Category fonts ONLY is that the CSS classes used to define those fonts are shared by all the other boxes you see on the page, e.g. Manufacturers, What's New, etc. A change to the font in any of the .infobox classes changes the font in all boxes using the class.

 

Adding style attributes inside the categories.php file seems like a troublesome fix; wouldn't it be better to create a new CSS div or class just for categories and somehow call that class the same way infobox is currently called? That way all the styling is still inside the CSS file. I'm not a PHP expert, so I don't know how to code that.
