Question

• Can I create a common header that changes the color depending on a form that belongs to the page?
• I have created a form in order to mark the quality level of a page ("Under construction", "Maintained", ...). Afterwards I insert a small table containing a color code. Now I want to prevent this table from being deleted. Therefore I want to "hide" it from the user in the common header. I have created the form (it works) and I have installed the plugin (it works, too). But the color does not change. Maybe the header is not able to retrieve the information from the form because the form belongs to the topic?
• If it is not possible, do you know another way to support the status for a topic? I have seen there is a SupportStatus for this topic. How does it work? It is a form, is it not? Can I create such a method for my topics that changes the color of my common header? Does such a plugin exist?
• Thanks for your help!

Answer

If you answer a question - or someone answered one of your questions - please remember to edit the page and set the status to answered. The status selector is below the edit box.

I think that my idea does not work because the header takes the status of its own file. So I have to look for another possibilty to show the status of a page.
