Forum Size

[netsniper]

Hiya folks can anyone tell me how I can re-size my forum? to make it smaller, I have looked at it and it's set at 80% but when I change this it makes no difference at all, I have also looked through the CSS sheet and changed it there but still no luck ? I am using PHPBB

Thank you

Hello

Try this code to change width. I've looked into your CSS that had a big. This code will probably fix it.

Code:

.bodylinewidth {
   width:85%;
        }

Thanks for the reply I tried that and got this message

You must have removed one of curly braces.
Check your code for brace error.

Hi ankillien

This is what I have there
.bodylinewidth {
width:85%
}
And I changed it to this

.bodylinewidth {
width:80%
}

And got this message

You have to put semi-colon ; right after the value 80%.
Put it and then save.
It should be alright.

[netsniper]

I did it like you said and still the same message as before

.bodylinewidth {
width:80%;
}

[ankillien]

You also need to remove this part if it is still there...

Code:

.bodylinewidth {
width:85%
}

[netsniper]

So I replace this

.bodylinewidth {
width:80%;
}

With this

80%;

Can anyone help me with this problem I am trying to re size the width of my forum so that I can have the portal on one side I have tried the above but nothing seems to work

[netsniper]

Anyone please

[netsniper]

Any one help please

[Darren1]

So I replace this

.bodylinewidth {
width:85%;
}

With this

80%;

Correct, so it looks like:

.bodylinewidth {
width:80%;
}

Or the size you desire

I did what you said and this is the message I got same as before

I think your banner is too big and it is causing the problem.I think if you change your banner size from 1039 x 115 you wont be considering a resize

[netsniper]

Removed the banner and still got the same problem, below is what is in my Css

.bodyline{
background-color: #8EC1D8;
border: 1px #b6ddee solid;
.bodylinewidth {
width:80%;
}

I had a similar issue where I entered that code, and it didn't change.

Well I went back through the CSS and found out that code was already in there, so I changed the percentage from 80% to 95% and I got what I wanted.
