Change text size

I was wondering where I could change the text size on the Main forums
see image......I am trying to make it a little bit bigger.

Style Manager -> Pick the style -> StyleVars

The text for forum description is small_fontSize

The text for the last post bit is mid_fontSize

You can change those styleVars, and the new sizes will take effect.

Thanks Sarteck- that worked.
But how does one make the titles a bigger size- its the red text on the right.
See Image...

By the title, you mean the Last Post area, correct?

In your image, for example, "Pub landlady in Decoder Case..."?

If so, that's the StyleVar mid_fontSize I believe.

If you use FireFox and add on FireBug to it, I can show you how to look for the correct StyleVars yourself.

Yes this ! but that didn't do the trick.

Hmmm, I might be wrong, then. let me check again.

Hrm. Odd, that does control the font size on my forum...

Are you using a style that modified the forumbits.css template?

Oooops ! I haven't a clue- sorry !!

Go to your Admin CP.

Styles & Templates ==> Search in Templates


Type in (or copy/pasta):

.forumbit_post .forumrow .forumlastpost {

Double-click on "forumbits.css" if it pops up in the results, and press "Find" to be scrolled to where your search text is.

Right there, there should be a font-size declaration. Change that as necessary.

NOTE: if it's a StyleVar (something like {vb:stylevar mid_fontSize}), then you don't need to edit the template at all--just go change the correct StyleVar for the style.
