Forum Width

[MLBCenter]

I noticed that the forumhome width hacks made here didn't work on RC and was wondering if someone was working on a new version of some sort...I wanted my forum names to be smaller in width and have the last post bigger in width.

Are you referring to the width's of the tables in forumhome?

Here's the code you'll need to play with:


<tr align="center">
<td class="thead">&nbsp;</td>
<td class="thead" width="100%" align="$stylevar[left]">$vbphrase[forum]</td>
<td class="thead" width="175">$vbphrase[last_post]</td>
<td class="thead">$vbphrase[threads]</td>
<td class="thead">$vbphrase[posts]</td>
<if condition="$vboptions['showmoderatorcolumn']">
<td class="thead">$vbphrase[moderator]</td>
</if>
</tr>


If you have made no modifications to your category setup (so no seperation etc.) this should be in forumhome. If you have installed forum cell under categories/forum spacing, this will be in forumhome_forumbit_level1_nopost.

Look at this:

<td class="thead" width="175">$vbphrase[last_post]</td>

The part in bold is the set width for the last post column. Play around with the number to make it either bigger or smaller. Add width="number here" to each <td> tag there to play around with the widths of those columns.

I played around with it and changed the width to 195 and the % to 85, but I see little change. (Maybe it's an IE problem of refreshing) If you could check forums.mlbcenter.com for me and let me know if it looks like the standard forum width or if I successfully made the last post column larger. Thanks

I can only see one forum on your forumhome, so I can't make any judgements from that on your problem.

Oh yeah you have to register...but like I said I adjusted what you said and nothing appeared to have changed. Would you like to see for yourself in the admincp because changing the numbers hasn't worked for me.

bump.

Can you please provide a screenshot of a registered screen please? I'm not going to register.

[MLBCenter]

There's nothing to take a screenshot of since the forum width is standard/default vbulletin.

[Tony G]

Can you set the changes you made when you posted this post?

Take a screenshot, and then post it here. Only way I can help you.

Not a big deal because I know you're busy Tony but just hope to get a chance to see it...
