Forum Wide Screen

[foroalfaromeo]

This is my forum

www.foroalfaromeo.com/foro

Can any one tell me how can I make the forum to auto-adapt to the the user's screen wide?

The original Vbulletin Skin does it, but I don't know how.

Any hint?

Thanks!

You want to go from a fixed to a fluid design. From the looks of things it's more than just changing the table width from a # to a %. You should check with Ryan, the theme designer at vbskinworks, I'm sure he would be able to help you.

You can change the forum width to 100% but I don't think you're going to like how it comes out. There will be a lot of dead space between items on any page.

Vbskinworks lack of customer service is the reason why I had created this topic. I payed for this skin and It has bugs. Now I'm trying to correct them myself.

Where is the table width so I can change the # for %?

I'm willing to try it and correct it and see what happens.



Thanks to both of you

ACP> Styles & Templates > Style manager
From there you'll get a list of themes you have. Click "Go" by the one you want to work on.
When it opens scroll down to Forum Width. Right now it should have a number like 500px or just the number. That dictates the width in pixels. Delete that and put 100% in it's place.
Press return and let the CSS page reboot itself. Then at the top click on Forum Home and see how it came out.
Be sure if you're done to log out of the ACP.

Nothing happened
It looks the same

I tried the values 100%, 600px, 800px but there's no change in the forum's width
I also tried the Code Block.. but yet, nothing happended

I'm attaching the prtscn of the original values so you can check everithing it's ok.

really..
I've always had great support from them, don't they even have a live help desk?

I don't see the skin as having bugs, maybe some of your mods are causing the bugs?

[foroalfaromeo]

The skin has no bugs at first sigth because I've corrected most of them.
Mods didn't do anything.

Any hint?

Find this in your css:

div#header, div#content-wrap, div#footer {
margin-left:auto;
margin-right:auto;
width:842px;
}

Change the 842px to 100%

Lynne, It worked fine
Thanks a Lot!

Now to finish it, I need to correct some details, maybe you can help me too.

Please see the attachments

Mod1: Put Last Post Time/Date on the right
Mod2; "Forum Contains" description and Icon brought together
Mod3: Correct some details on the "Who's Online" table.
Mod4: Make "New Post" form autoexpand as in the forum.

Hope it's not too much. I guess it's php's ABC, but for my it still a little bit complicated.

Thanks!!!
