Comment Box too small

[nymyth]

The comment box when posting a new entry and when posting a comment is too small (the quick comment is fine)....where would i go to make this bigger?

[raiderlax]

Yes I do agree with this as well, how to adjust it maybe?

As well I am using a FLUID width style, so...

[nymyth]

Yep I was using an extreme pixels design and then made A LOT of modifications myself, the reply box for a regular thread looks great, however for the blog its tiny......any ideas?

[PitchouneN64ngc]

The size of the blog reply box is defined by a new stylevar called 'Blog Form Width (pixels)'.

Edit this value for this stylevar :)

[nymyth]

changed this value...but nothing changed for my comment box for new entry

[nymyth]

anyone have a solution for this?

I changed the User Control Panel Message Area Width to 500px and nothing happened. It seems to not change the width. Is there anything else we can do?

[nymyth]

I made the suggested modification in blog_init... and works


// overwrite the messagearea stylevar with the smaller messagearea_usercp stylevar
$stylevar['messagewidth'] = (intval($stylevar['messagewidth_usercp']) > 480 ? '480px' : $stylevar['messagewidth_usercp']);

I use hack of princeton - gtsmilies below editor - and now works fine
all the best
and thanks
