Support Forum
Hi, I'm using the default theme.
I need to:
- Widen the left column in the main forum page (ie where you see thegroups and forums), because the custom icon covers the words;
- Widen the column left box that shows the author of the message(otherwise the avatar comes out).
Also, how do I change the font size? This is too small.
I tried looking in the file of the theme but I do not know what to change.
Thanks to all
COLUMN WIDTHS: These are defined in your SP theme /templates. If you take a look at, say, the spGroupView template you can trace down through each display element that you see on the forum and you will find in there the definitions of each of the four columns in that view. You will see that each one has a width defined as a percentage. You can change these until you get the combination needed for the available space you have. The obvious rule is, of course, that when added together they must not exceed 100.
You will probably want to look at the spGroupView, spForumView and spTopicView templates.
FONT SIZE: Depends what SP theme you are using. If the default then the font sizes are defined in the colour overlay you have specified for use. These can be found in the /styles/overlays folder. if you want to make ALL fonts bigger by default then in the top block of that file you will find the '$mainFontSize' setting which will probably say 100%. This means use the size of font defined in your WP theme as the main body font size. Changing it to, say, 110% will make everything a little bigger etc.
If you only want to change the font size in some parts of the forum then further down that overlay file you will find a whole block where you can set font sizes for individual components.
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/)
