MyBB Community Forums

My forum's post text is too wide and flies outside the page's body. Hw can I fix this?

EDIT: Looks like same thing happens here in MyBB forum, albeit with a wide picture. However, my issue is just with text, not pics.

If you want to use a plugin then take a look at the link below:

If you want to use CSS then take a look at the the link below:

Thanks for the replies. I tried the second method but that looks to be a way to force pictures to fit, which actually is awesome, but not what I'm looking for. Its the text that is overflowing past the borders as shown in my pic above. Is there a similar method of fixing this in .css? I've tried a bunch of trial and error in global .css but can't figure it out.

Try this.

Go to ACP>Templates & Styles>Themes>YOUR THEME>Global.css

Look for .post_body in simple mode then set the width to 850px. If you could provide me the URL of your forum then I would be able to provide you the exact pixels you should set in the width field.

Awesome, thanks! Pictures and posts align perfectly now. Slightly related question, do you know how to make it so that only the last post gets quoted if someone tried to quote a post that has a quote in it?

I want to avoid those massively long posts with multiple quotes in them.

NM, figured that last part out.
