Change Post/Reply Box font size

[GK061490]

Hello there. I'm having trouble changing the font size used in my forum's reply box. I just can't seem to pinpoint which code in the CSS controls it.

I've included my CSS with this post. I hope someone can help me out with this. X'D

Advanced Thanks!

Hi GK061490, open editor.css in your theme and a font-size to the .editor class. But note, this does not work with the rich text editor as it displays actual font sizes to be used in the post.

The theme I got doesn't have an editor.css

It only has index.css and rtl.css

[Killer Possum]

If that index.css is all your theme calls, you can still add my suggestion. Just instead of editor.css put it in the index.css.

[GK061490]

unfortunately, it doesn't seem to work. T_T

Have you taken a look at the entire index.css file? It could be setting the size elsewhere. Also are you sure you're not looking at the rich text editor?

[GK061490]

Yes I have.

I believe this line is what's controlling the input size:

input, button, select, textarea
{
   font: 95%/115% verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif;
   color: #000000;
   background: #FFFFFF;
   border: 1px solid #4D423C;
   padding: 2px;
}

I'm thinking it's the textarea but whenever I try to change it, I don't see any difference.

Code Select Expand

.editor
{
font-size: 20pt;
}

That worked for me. But as KP noted, if a user switches to WYSIWYG, this change will have no effect whatsoever.

You'll have to turn off the WYSIWYG if you want to always have the increased font size. The WYSIWYG is just that, it shows the font size your post will be in.
