I'm not sure which column or forum page you are talking about for sure but most have column width percentages set in their file for that page.

For example in group view the column for the icon on the left is set at 6%, in the default theme.

# Column 1 of the forum row
# ----------------------------------------------------------------------
sp_ColumnStart('tagClass=spColumnSection spLeft&width=6%&height=55px');
sp_ForumIndexIcon('tagClass=spRowIcon spLeft');
sp_ColumnEnd();

 

If you wanted to change the width for the icon column you would edit the 6% to what you needed. If lowering it you could add more more % to another column or if raising it then remove some % from the others.
if you can clarify, which SP theme, mabe a screen shot too, along which page and which column, we can narrow it down to exactly where you need the change.

Did you see the height argument in the code that Brandon posted above. Have you tried changing that?

As always we recommend that you create your own SP theme so that any customisation is not lost during a future update. (http://codex.simple-press.com/.....g-a-theme/)

Dave, as shown above the height of the row is set a a minimum or 55px. You can reduce that in all the columns but that is a minimum setting. That means anything in any of the columns that require more than the minimum will automatically make the row height increase. The 55px is really already set close to as low as you can go. That means you would need to look at each column remove or edit things that may make the column less tall.

Also something to think about is that when there are new posts or other icons displayed in some rows but not in others you could start having rows where some are short and some are tall if you lower the minimum row height.

Just bringing it up in case you have not considered the different info each row can display.
