Forum Width

Forum width problem.

annihillator	#1 29.03.2011 06:23
Members	Hello once again! :) I was just wondering if it was possible to change the width of my forums using any .tpl file and what should I be looking for to do it? If you visit my site http://www.crazygaming.co.tv and click on the forums tab you will see that there is panels going down the left hand side. I would prefer to have full width forums and maybe even relocate those left side panels to a different location. Could anyone offer assistance on how I could do this? I use the GamePortal theme. Thanks in advance.

I cannot find anything in the .tpl files to help me achieve this goal. There is no config.php.

Team Поблагодарили: 9 раз	I know the structure of Gameportal. I've converted from Template to skin for Cotonti. What I ment is that in /datas/config.php you have the URL part set with a ending slash, therefor your site gives some problems. It is possible to do it in one block, but it is a lot of work. And I don't want to do the work for Genoa. In a couple of weeks Siena will be the standard. Added 19 minutes later: To give you a start. You need to change forums. forums.editpost.tpl forums.newtopic.tpl forums.posts.tpl forums.sections.tpl forums.topics.tpl Delete the whole block "<div id="sidebar">" until " <!-- / Sidebar -->" Change <div id="content"> to eg <div id="content2"> Copy all entries starting with content in gameportal.css And change content to content2 Where there is a picture mentioned, change picturename and resize the width to what you want eg. 900 If there is mentioned a width 657px change it to 900px. Upload the changed files and check what is not ok. If problems, let me know. But for the moment I don't have the time to do it. But you will learn a lot if you do it yourself. ... can we help you ...

To give you a start.

You need to change forums.

forums.editpost.tpl
forums.newtopic.tpl
forums.posts.tpl
forums.sections.tpl
forums.topics.tpl

Delete the whole block "<div id="sidebar">" until " "

Change <div id="content"> to eg <div id="content2">

Copy all entries starting with content in gameportal.css And change content to content2
Where there is a picture mentioned, change picturename and resize the width to what you want eg. 900
If there is mentioned a width 657px change it to 900px.

Upload the changed files and check what is not ok.
If problems, let me know.

But for the moment I don't have the time to do it.
