    Solved Blogs Problems

    Post by Rupture Sat Jan 17, 2015 5:54 pm

    Hello, 

    I recently added a new Blog to my forum, because we are starting to do tutorials. The problem is that there are a few bugs and things I'd like to fix. First of all, here is the link to one of our blogs: http://raptorgaming.forumotion.com/t554-tutorial-blog

    Here are some problems I want to fix:
    1.) I have images on my widgets and whenever someone replies, you can see the left picture is lower than it should be and touching one of the buttons on top (for me it's the View IP button, for some the Delete button). Is there a way to make all the replies not be recognized as a module by the forum so there are no pictures displayed on each reply?

    2.)How can I customize the "Share this post on: etc. " because there are literally way too many places people can share the post on, I mean Digg, Reddit, etc I just want maybe FB and Twitter and that's it lol. 

    3.) On the main Category, how can I change how each Blog is displayed? I don't like that they are so big, some have images and it just takes way too long to scroll from one to the next. Can't they display like regular topics or can I make the images not display and have less characters displayed as well? 

    Thank you!

    Hi @Rupture,

    For 1 an 2, add these codes to your stylesheet :
    Code:
    .module .postbody .h3:after, .module.row1:before, .module.row2:before { display:none }

    #bookmarks img { display:none }
    #bookmarks img.twitter, #bookmarks img.facebook { display:inline }

    For 3 you could probably edit the template. Do you just want it to show the titles ?

    Hi Ange, 

    If it could just display like 1 line of content (letters only no pics if possible) that would be perfect! Like just a little bit of a preview of what the post is about. But if it's not possible then just the titles is just fine as well. I just like it the way it looks now because it take up a lot of space, especially when the first thing on there is a picture it displays the picture and it's very disproportionate. 

    Thank you for the first code it works Very Happy

    I noticed you could select the message content. See how the scroll bar works for it. Smile
    Code:
    dl.blog.icon .blog_message {
      max-height:100px;
      overflow:auto;
      overflow-x:hidden;
      word-break:break-all;
    }

    That is much better. Only thing is, can I edit the scroll bar colors?
    And, what do you mean I can select the message content?

    Oh I meant dl.blog.icon .blog_message selects the blog message content in the topics list. Mr. Green

    As for styling the scrollbar, I think most of that support was dropped a long time ago.. The only way now on modern browsers that I know of would be to create your own custom scrollers with javascript.
