Font Size

[wendallb]

I have a forum for senior citizens and would like to increase the size of the font on the forum just a little to make it easier to read for us folks that are older 4 eyes...

I am using 2.0 beta 4 and the default theme...

I don't know which CSS file to edit...

Thanks,

OK I am lost,  version 2.0 beta 4 default theme

I am looking at style.css and trying to figure out how to increase the size of the font on the menu buttons so help please..

Thanks,

Look in the css sub directory in the default theme. There you will find the index.css. In this file look for the following:

Line#108

Find:

Code Select Expand

#main_menu li a
{
float: left;
display: block;
color: white;
font-size: 0.8em;
font-family: tahoma, sans-serif;
text-transform: uppercase;
}

Replace with:

Code Select Expand

#main_menu li a
{
float: left;
display: block;
color: white;
font-size: 1em;
font-weight: bold;
font-family: tahoma, sans-serif;
text-transform: uppercase;
}

Note: This will also bold the text. If you do not want the text bold then remove this:

font-weight: bold;

This should do the trick

Thank you that got it...

Happy New Year

I found this post, really useful for me too.

I have a question too, Do we ( admin ) have provision to set one particular font to each user either user could select there default font.

[Tyrsson]

That would take changes to the script to allow.

The font style is set in either the css or sometimes within the hard code (depending on the version and theme). You can select the font that is used but once selected it will apply throughout the forum.

Hi Trysson,

You are right, but i need to have a font mod which each user could select there font throughout the forum.

Well users, as defined by their browser, can set the height of their display text.

But if you want this as a modification to SMF you'll have to try the Mod request section.
