Portal Questions Empty Portal Questions

Post by Professor Clayton June 27th 2014, 1:09 am

Hello Hi, my forum is here: http://8bitforward.forumotion.com/ and that is the built in portal.

I have a few basic questions, which can probably be solved by adding a few lines to my CSS but I am not sure.

1. Enlarge title of each post on the portal. This would help a lot as then it would be more visible to the reader.

2. Make the title of each post a link to the actual post. This may be tricky to do, but essentially have the title of each post be a direct link to the Full Reading of the post, like the Full Reading button at the end of each post does.

3. Finally, I was wondering how I can enlarge the Full Reading and Comments buttons? It is very small and may be hard for some readers to see at first.

Thanks for any help anybody can give me!

Hi Very Happy

#1 Answer
Code:
table.forumline.mod_news .genmed {
font-size: 30px;
}

#2 IDK

#3 I haven't tried this yet but try editing your portal via template (Not even sure it exists) and look for classes row 3, gensmall, and a. There should be "Full Reading" and "Comment" there and declare an individual name soooo you can edit them via CSS. (I have no time to try so I can suggest right now)

Thanks!


1. This worked perfectly in my CSS, thank you!

2. I figured this would be tricky. Razz

3. I can actually do this, Display > Templates > Portal. Then there is one called NEWS which I can get in to edit, fairly easily. Then there is about 3/4 way down the section you mentioned, though I am unsure of where to place the resizing code. Changing gensmall to genmed makes it a little too large...

Hi Very Happy

gensmall/genmed is a class, so add in an ID next to it like this:

Code:
<span class="genmed" id="trololol">[insert long code here]</span>

Btw, [insert long code here] is just a troll phrase, don't actually insert it ._. It's not funny when it happened to some forum .-.

But yeah, after that, insert in CSS something like:

Code:
#trololol {
  font-size: #px !important;
}

Hi,

That worked well for the comments... which you can see here: http://8bitforward.forumotion.com/
Although I still cannot chage the size of the text in the css...unless I removed genmed form the code. Now it works fine on comments.

But the Full Reading is more difficult to change... I messed around a bit but to no avail.

Hi Very Happy

Go to mod_news template and then find this:

Code:
<div class="clear"></div>
            {post_row.OPEN}<a href="{post_row.U_READ_FULL}">{post_row.L_READ_FULL}</a>{post_row.CLOSE}
         </div>
         <p class="comments"><a href="{post_row.U_VIEW_COMMENTS}">{L_COMMENTS}</a>: {post_row.REPLIES}</p>
      </div>

Replace by:

Code:
<div class="clear"></div>
            {post_row.OPEN}<a id="clearpost" href="{post_row.U_READ_FULL}">{post_row.L_READ_FULL}</a>{post_row.CLOSE}
         </div>
         <p class="comments" id="derp2222"><a href="{post_row.U_VIEW_COMMENTS}">{L_COMMENTS}</a>: {post_row.REPLIES}</p>
      </div>

Then add in your CSS:

Code:
#derp2222 { font-size: #px; }
#clearpost { font-size: #px; }
