How to make members profile field broader?

[bharat_forum]

I would like to know if there is a way to make members profile field broader?

[Kindred]

be more specific please...   WHAT member profiles field?

[bharat_forum]

I mean the member profile field on the main page, where you have avatar and some info, is there a way to make it broader?

bharat_forum,

you need to seriously think about what you write -- and learn how to ask for help and include details.

If you mean on the thread-display pages, then that is **NOT** the same as the "main page"

If you mean the profile stuff in the HEADER, then you need to say that.

Until you can CLEARLY indicate what you are asking for, we can't ehelp you much.

However, the probably answer is going to be --- that is related to your theme - so you should ask in the theme support thread.

Exactly, that's what I mean. Can you suggest something?

Thanks for the link, can you please tell me what exactly do I need to change?

Thanks for the link, can you please tell me what exactly do I need to change?

Seriously?

Should be in the index.css around line 1922 for curve theme.

Look for
.poster {
   float: left;
   width: 15em;
}

Just change the width to your liking.

It depends on your theme...

Thank you Storman™ ... I learned something new today!

[bharat_forum]

Well, I am using the Default theme.

[bharat_forum]

I changed the width as you suggested but now I need to move signatures of members as well, how can I change it?

[kat]

Might help, if you tell us where you want to move them to, don't you think?

[bharat_forum]

I mean when I made profile broader the signatures look not at the same level as profile so they width should also change.

[kat]

Heck... What you really need is a completely new theme, by the way things are going.

You can limit the size of sigs, in Features and options>Signatures, if that helps, at all.

I think the problem bharat_forum is having is that once the mini-profile is widened, everything to the right of it (textbox, signatures, quote button, etc.) is also shifted to the right. So widening the profile means he or she is going to have to change the width of just about everything else in the row. I found this out when I widened mine too far and the quote button was off the page.

Oh come on guys, this sort of thing has been asked and answered umpteen times.

The user area is floated left with a set width. The other stuff (post, sig, etc) is not floated, and has a left margin to match the width of the user area. If you make the user area wider, you need to increase the left margin on the post and sig and attachments. It's not difficult to do. You only need to edit a few values.

Look for .signature in index.css and change the left margin there. IIRC it's grouped with attachments too. If posts aren't grouped with that lot, just search the file for the same left margin value and you should find it pretty quick. Edit to suit.
