Postbit GAP Problem

[brandonroy]

In vbulletin 4, the postbit user info is gapped. How can I get it back to how to was on vbulletin 3?

I'm using the horizontal postbit layout. Here's what the gaps look like:

And here is what I WANT it to look like:

Go into your postbit.css and find

.postbit .userinfo .userinfo_extra, .postbit .userinfo_noavatar .userinfo_extra {
text-align: {vb:stylevar right};
width: 300px;
float: {vb:stylevar right};
font-size: {vb:stylevar small_fontSize};
}

Change the red 'right' for the word 'left'

Gosh thank you. So simple! :)

Sorry to bother again, but one last thing, how do i make it so that "longer" locaitions names for example do not do a line break?

Underneath that block of css I asked you too find is another similar block that looks like this:

.postbit .userinfo .userinfo_extra dl, .postbit .userinfo_noavatar .userinfo_extra dl {
margin-{vb:stylevar right}: {vb:stylevar padding};
float: {vb:stylevar right};
width: 150px;

Change the red to 300 or there abouts.

Personally anybody's location that is longer than 25 letters should be blocked or controlled unless you live in that town in Wales @58 letters long :p

Thanks robbie, but that just brought the postbit info over to the left like so:

Any way to keep it to the right and expand to the left with longer locations like on this site? (old vb)

The original 150px setting sets your data, as soon as you enter data that goes beyond that it will drop down a line, the trick is to make sure that the longest location name doesnt create a line break and set your width to that!

I'm racking my brain at the moment, I'm sure there was a way to stop the user entering anything longer than X letters so the line break would never happen and the user would have to stay within the parameters.

[brandonroy]

Well, there's a lot of city names out there that aren't all that long, but will still create a line break. For example, "Santa Barbara, CA" line breaks.

If I somehow limited the location field letters, then the shorter locations will be margined pretty far left from the right of the postbit.

I guess the code is a lot different from vb3

Is there anyway to change this part of the template to the vbulletin 3 coding?
