How do I Modify the Message Body Width?

[gbarton]

V 2.2.9

When posting a New public event on the Calendar, the "Event Information" body is about 1/3 the normal size when compared to the message body of a "New Thread". In other words, the message body box of a new thread is the default normal width, while the "Event Information" message body is much smaller even though I have never modified it.

How do I adjust the width of this?

In the admin CP, I went to Templates --> Modify --> Calendar --> calendar_enterevent and looked for the width. First off, the text was still green indicating the default settings were still in place. However, I could not figure out how to adjust the width. Anyway, I found the width was equal to "contenttablewidth", but I could not find this reference anywhere.

TIA for any help.

you could try changing that to 100% or any pixel value, it doesnt have to be a variable :)

I tried that, but I still have this strange message body screen.

I just noticed that it has affected the edit post message body screen too.

New Thread and Reply Thread seem okay.

Here is how it looks...

From the screenshot it would seem that you modified the textarea columns and rows.

In the templates find the code
<textarea

Within that tag you should find attributes for cols and rows. Modify those to get that area to expand to what you're looking to do.
