Forum Width/Padding -

[Khephra]

Our community's forum isn't sized properly, and I'm having difficulties locating a fix.

I've already toggled the forum's width down to 88%, but members are still complaining because they have to laterally scroll to see the entire page. Is it possible to set the configuration so that the entire page opens w/o lateral scrolling? Is it an issue of the width of the widgets? They're both currently set to 180 pixels...

For whatever reason, I don't have any problems when I open the page... I may have a larger than typical monitor and be on a Mac, but why is it that the page would load evenly for me but not others?

Cheers!

yes, i think there could be a problem with the empty widget.
If you have nothing on the right side then change its pixels to 0, to save space.

Also noticed two additional points that might be the reason. The first one being your banner - it's an image with a width of 1024 Pixels. That means any user with a lower resolution than 1024 x ... px will see a scroll bar in their browser window.

Second problem seems to be located in your CSS - your current settings would show a scrollbar for all members with less than ~1150px resolution. Add this code below into "Display / Colors / CSS Stylesheet", click submit and ask your members if they still see the scrollbar.

Code:

#wrap{min-width:765px;}
