Question Introduce yourself Forum?
What I want seems fairly easy, but I have little understanding on how to do it.
I just want to make the first post of every new thread in an "Introduce yourself" forum have a background(Planning on making a low opacity background with globes, etc). Can this be done with xThreads?

Thanks in advanced Yipi

RE: Introduce yourself Forum?
Generally, you can do that like this:
  1. Edit your Introduction Forum, you'll find Template Prefix setting there. Set the Template Prefix to intro_
  2. Create new thread in your Global Templates, name it as intro_postbit_first template for horizontal postbit, and intro_postbit_first_classic template for classic postbit layout.
  3. Copy paste your postbit codes to the intro_postbit_first template, and your postbit_classic codes to the intro_postbit_first_classic template.
  4. Now, you can modify the intro_postbit_first and intro_postbit_first_classic templates as you want (background, new class css, layout and etc).

You can view this example application as your reference:

I'm gonna try it right now. Rate-U you are an awesome person, all the shares you've done for xThreads are really freaking amazing, I'm really grateful. I'm currently using the Suggestion and Trader modules. I hope you are planning on release more of these. Really amazed by your tutorials. You are the man. Ok i'm gonna shut up now Yes

Got it working man! Thanks, but I have a question, why does the background get implemented just for the first post (That's want I want it's fine) but I added height: 290px; (so that the background showed clompletly) and it's affecting all the posts? here is what I'm talking about: http://bobbaxtrade.com/Thread-Helow-3-Soy-nuevo-O
