[SOLVED] Alternating color for post on homepage
 

I know there is an option for making every other comment different colors.

I couldn't find a similar option for posts. Does it exist and I missed it?

If not is there a way to impliment that?

Thanks!

Sorry to bump this, but would anyone know how to do this?
Should I make this a feature request?

You can edit index.php

<?php // Post Container starts here
if ( function_exists('post_class') ) { ?>
<div <?php if ( is_page() ) { post_class('post'); } else { post_class(); } ?> id="post-<?php the_ID(); ?>">
<?php } else { ?>
<div class="<?php echo ( is_page() ? 'page ' : '' ) . 'post" id="post-'; the_ID(); ?>">
<?php } ?>


Change to


<?php // Odd or even
$odd_or_even = (($postcount % 2) ? 'odd-post' : 'even-post' ); ?>

<?php // Post Container starts here
if ( function_exists('post_class') ) { ?>
<div <?php if ( is_page() ) { post_class('post'); } else { post_class("$odd_or_even"); } ?> id="post-<?php the_ID(); ?>">
<?php } else { ?>
<div class="<?php echo ( is_page() ? 'page ' : '' ) . 'post" id="post-'; the_ID(); ?>">
<?php } ?>


I included the code above in 3.3.4


Add a CSS Insert:

div.odd-post {
background: ...
border: ...
}

div.even-post {
background: ...
border: ...
}

Thank you Flynn!

I appreciate your responsiveness!
