Solved Topic Icons overlapping other images.

Post by FunnyBoy195 February 7th 2009, 2:19 am

I have added topic icons to my forum, but the topic icons are overlapping the "new posts, no new posts, old posts, etc" images. Is there a way to fix this?

hey... first of all nice theme... i love your site

next go to admin panel -> display -> colors -> css
and find this :

Code:
ul.topics dt,ul.topics dd.dterm {
   padding-left: 45px;
   display: block;
   float: left;
   width: 60%;
   }

see that padding 45 part... change the padding to about 65px...
also change the width from 50% to about 60%...

I hope this helps... report back... just in case

When I did that, it didnt help.

Here is a picture of what happened when I did that:

https://2img.net/r/ihimizer/img3/3115/topiciconsye7.png

If I change the "padding-left" thing to a higher number, it makes the titles of each thread move further away from the topic icon and the "new post, etc" images. If I move it too far away though, then the height gets bigger. (In the picture above, you can see that the code changed the height).

Oh, and thanks (about the theme). Smile

Hello,

As far as I've ever understood, this is normal and for phpBB3 boards. This is what happens on this support forum and my own. With phpBB2, there are actually 2 separate cells for post icons, 1 for "new topic, popular topic etc", and one for the post icon itself. With phpBB3 there is only 1 cell and so if you choose a topic icon, it overlays over the original icon.


Is this not correct everyone?

Thanks.

Also, what I did was use the code that Jalokim gave me, and then I made the title of each thread go to the right more, and then added 22 pixels on the left side of each tag, so now the tag is in between the title, and hte images. I just dont know if it looks teh same for every computer.
