Hi all,
I am using 1.1.13
barkingdogproblem.org/forum
Core Default (I have copied this --so I can edit---but I have no idea how to edit).
I am in need of larger buttons for :
HOME, HELP, SEARCH, PROFILE, LOGOUT, etc which is located towards to the top left of the screen..
These letters are too small for some of my readers or posters.
Also--- can we make the letters larger for:
MARK READ, NOTIFY, NEW TOPIC
Is there a mod for this?
Thank you for any help!
In the style.css file of your theme you can change the fontsize for the menu on about line #329
Change this to the font size you need:
font-size: 9px;
You'll also want to make the same change on about line #387. Both of these changes will also reflect in the "MARK READ" buttons.
Oh brother! :) I have to edit now--- never done that before, but I am going to try right now and see if it works..
There are no line numbers under the CSS.
Here is my ccs:

If you use Firefox, add Firebug and try editing. However it is temporary, but you will get the idea.
I tried to install Firebug-- but it wouldn't install.. And yes, I restarted.
You need to edit it with a file editor. Use something like Notepad++. When you open the file you'll see line numbers in the editor. Change the stuff you need to, then re-upload the file back to your site.
Thank you sooooooooo much! I got it!
I downloaded Notepad++ and followed your directions as to the line numbers!
I am getting so smart in here! :)
Thanks again and again!
sorry ...
i know it has been marked solved...just want to ask the font size i would now replace the 9px with to make it bolder...
staind please open your own topic for your issue, this way it will not get lost or ignored by being in a thread that is solved.
Thanks Sataind for this topic
Usefull to me
