Solved Simple way to change font size in posts?

Post by el.jeffe58 March 16th 2011, 7:30 am

I know I did it before, but cannot find it now. How do I change the font size of the way posts appear? Or is there a font size for the forum in general setting? I would rather not code anything. Just a simple drop down menu or box to put a number in would be heaven for me at this juncture. Thank you very much!

In the advanced mode while replying, there is a option to change the size of posts. From tiny, small, normal, large & huge options.

Are you speaking of in the text editor or in the admin control panel? Thank you.

I am referring to a global forum font change not text editor specific. I want to make sure I am happy with the size everything is displaying in. Thanks again.

There is an option in the administration panel by going to:

1. Administration Panel (advanced mode)
2. Display Tab
3. Colors (on the left, under Pictures and Colors)
4. Change the value of "Main Font Size"

Or, if you prefer, you can also add this to your CSS (phpBB 3):
Code:
.postbody .content {
    font-size: 1.5em;
}

Change the font-size: 1.5em to a different value if you wish, but I think that 1.5 will be big enough. The bigger the number, the bigger the font size. You can find your CSS code by going to:

1. Administration Panel (advanced mode)
2. Display Tab
3. Colors (on the left, under Pictures and Colors)
4. CSS Stylesheet and paste the code there
