Template woes...

Postby gecko on Sat Jun 09, 2007 12:29 am

First off...sorry if the Installation area is not the area for this but here goes...

New site located at http://northwind.plurhost.com.&nbsp; I have installed a site template that I found at joomla24.com.  I have installed the FireBoard forum component.  My problem is that when posting a note in FireBoard the text area (like where I am typing this message right here and now) is RATHER small.  I don't know enough about CSS and the like to just zoom to the right area and fix it.  Can anybody give me a general idea of where this setting might be?  I am assuming it is prolly a problem with the site template I am using but that is about as far as my template knowledge runs...

Thanks much!  ;)

Note...I'm attaching the zip file for the template I am currently using if that helps.  The only thing I removed from the zip file is the thumbnail so the zip file would fit under the 100KB allowance. ;)

Look for something in the fireboard css:

fb_txtarea

That is the small text box.  Using css I think you can make it bigger.  I can't live edit your css to test because you have frames.

Hi everybody,

I encountered the same difficulty. I found a very helpful thread in another forum to solve it.

http://www.bestofjoomla.com/component/option,com_fireboard/Itemid,38/func,view/catid,66/id,12964/#13138

edit:
It says "just paste this: [...] in your joomla css file". This file's pathway is:
.../components/com_fireboard/template/default/joomla.css

Greetings,

Niibla
