Make thread and topic size bigger

[Kindred]

ApplianceJunk...  to find out where it trickles down from, roll down the css list on the right in firebug...   eventually, you'll find a font or font-size declaration which is not crossed out.

sarhad12, please learn to use the code tags?


the nice thing about firebug is that you can "pre-test" any changes by applying them in firebug. It will show you what the changes will look like on the screen, but will be gone when you refresh the page.

ye this does raise it but the subject not the body text area

[sarhad12]

this changes the font but only on subject area not body text and above this i did also and it makes even the usernames big so i guess its not going to work

[Kindred]

you need to find the appropriate CSS. The one that ApplianceJunk pointed out does indeed control the entire "post area" there are other, sub set divs which control the content section.

I don't have FF on my office computer, so I can't spoon feed you...

[sarhad12]

spoonfeed lol nice words well thanks for helping but if u feel your spoon feeding me then thanks but dont bother helping a newbie doesnt mean spoonfeeding.

[Kindred]

sarhad12,

I can walk you through it (which I have been doing)
However, since I don't (and can't) have FF at work, I can not look at the code myself and TELL you what to change...   and that would be spoonfeeding.   I can, and have, told you how to find what you need though...

please, i'm not derailing here, but why didn't anyone help with my own theme fix here?

You can reply there and move on with this topic.

OP, please sorry for bumping in

[sarhad12]

just one last  question, what font is been used on smf support? text area this seems the best size any idea?

[Arantor]

It's the same font as the default SMF theme which is Verdana, declared as '78% size'.

The full definition in the body is:

Code Select Expand

font: 78%/130% "Verdana", "Arial", "Helvetica", sans-serif;

[sarhad12]

i just noticed mine looked so bad because it was 8 i think i raised it to 12 didnt look that good then 11 also not that good then when i chose 10 loved it. 10 seems the font I want perfect thanks again for all the help this means a lot to me.

[Kindred]

dda... probably because your request was very different, not a simple matter of adjsting CSS.

[DAVID. D.A]

wouldn't it be to create something like a table code in the display.template, then add the specific  codes for profile view, posts, topic heading,  in the table part/region you wish???
Didn't think it was something complex
   more like changing the posts view/replies to how threaded the default theme is
