Font sizes, colors, and fonts

[Holly]

I see i can add a color to the change color drop down, but when adding the color thename doesnt appear on the list.  How Do I add its name?

Also, can I add more font sizes as well as different font faces?

thanks for your help!

You'll need to add an extra line in Post.english.php, referring to the textstring you used to add the color, something like:

Post.template.php

Code Select Expand


<option value="color">', $txt['customcolor'], '</option>


Post.english.php

Code Select Expand


$txt['customcolor'] = 'color';

OK That I understand.. But what is the number for? The first time I tried to do it.. I used the number 276 I think.. But we can just say that number as example..

When I looked at the color in the drop down it was called *disable smilies* Which I knew it was refered to by the number.. How do I know what number to call it?

It doesn't need a number. Using something like 'customcolor' or 'pink' is just fine. So, let's say pink is the color you want to add and this is what you added in Post.template.php:

Code Select Expand


<option value="#FF3399">', $txt['pink'], '</option>


Then this is what you should add in Post.english.php, or maybe even better, in Modifications.english.php:

Code Select Expand


$txt['pink'] = 'Pink';


If you look in Post.index.php you'll see that 276 refers to: disable smileys

Code Select Expand


$txt[276] = 'Disable Smileys';

This may be a silly question... but I dont see a post_english.php in my files

It's in /Themes/default/languages

Ofcourse, if you use another language you should change it there as well.
