Hi all,
I'm trying to change the width of the new thread form. I've changed several settings in the theme editor but the box in which user writes a new thread is too wide! Can ayone help?
Admin CP > Templates > Modify/Delete > YOUR THEME > Expand > New Thread Templates > Expand > newthread > Expand... then search for:
$codebuttons
<tr>
<td colspan="2">
<textarea name="message" rows="20" cols="100" tabindex="3">$message</textarea>
change the rows and cols to whatever u want
Ah, thanks Mario I'll give that a try!

Ok, tried that and I think I may have mislead folk here! When I add a post (post a new thread) the width of the whole forum at this point is too wide! When I'm looking at the 'home' page of the forum it's fine! Any ideas?
Umm 100 is best max, 100 cols will fit exactly to the total width of that table. so dont use more than 100.
Also dont forget that you will need to edit the newreply template with the same thing menitoned above.
regards
*pls merge you posts, no need to double post.
You should add an width attribute.
like this:
change:
tabindex="3">
to
tabindex="3" style="width:100%">
so it won't go over the maximum length of the table.
