Topic Thread Screen is EXTREMELY WIDE All Of A Sudden
DIR By: rollerpigeon

Hello, for no apparent reason, when a typical thread is opened
to read the posts, the page is VERY WIDE! Help!
Here is a link:

I did not do anything that I know of to make this happen.
Thanks
Tony

It does it via the main board index too. Its something with the
modifications you've made to the style. How it views
depends on your personal screen resolution. If using a
wide-screen monitor and a high resolution setting it all fits in
nicely. Im at 1400x900 and it fits perfectly if I keep my
browser window full screen on the monitor. If I DONT (and I
normally do not) it doesnt fit well at all. Its not
resizing the information and should be so somethings amiss in
your css or the settings for the theme. Check your settings for
Forum width in Admin > Layout settings > Theme settings. If you
have it set at pixels for width try changing it to a percentage.
Give 98% a shot.
The #wrapper { width:95% !important;} you stuck at the top of
the css won't work. You need to edit div#wrapper
In the css change
--- Code ---
div#wrapper
{
margin: 0 auto;
min-width: 764px;
max-width: 2300px;
}
--- End Code ---
to
--- Code ---
div#wrapper
{
margin: 0 auto;
width: 98%;
}
--- End Code ---

Thanks for that info. Did what you suggested. I also deleted a
"page" that had the bad css. So here is what happened. I noticed
when I am not logged in but use the site, all is well. Things
display properly. However, once I logged in, the same problem is
repeated. I then log out and browse, all is well until I log in
again. :o
I tried another computer using a different login and it worked
just fine under that user name. I don't know what to think or
do? Help!! ???
Thanks
Tony

Looks normal to me to read on your site with firefox.
Sorry of topic.
rollerpigeon how did you make all those changes to your site
looks? I really like it. Mine just looks basic like this support
forum here.

Hello, thanks for checking.
I am glad you like my site. Yes, my contract staff made the site
changes to best represent our brand. It took a few days to get
it right but it was worth it.
Thanks

Hello, I have been contacted by my registered site users and
they are saying that the screen is too big for them also. They
have noticed that when they are logged in is when the problem
arises. When they are logged out, the threads appear normal.
Any thoughts on what might be causing this?
Thanks
Tony

Have you tried setting the forum to the Default Style so you can
see if it does it with that? If it doesnt then you KNOW its
something with the css with the custom style you are using
and/or the settings for it under Theme Settings for forum width.

Hello, I tried as you suggested and set it back to the default.
That worked to bring everything back under correct alignment but
I have lost the stylized look we had. I will contact my
programming team on the next workday and see what they can do.
Thanks!
Tony
