Comment box problem
 

Needless to say I am vastly enjoying myself customising my version of classifieds, and getting to grips with the templates, etc., after having just recently purchased my licence.
But I need a little help….
My site is a fixed width (780) and I have opted to have the sidebar show on all the pages. The only problem I have encountered is when the comments box is displayed, it whacks the entire sidebar to a mere strip, and expands the body of the page by several pixels. I have tried to change the columns of the comment box (they originally are set to 50) via the comments template, but for one or other reason any changes I make to reduce the column setting just won’t take.
Any advise?

Many thanks in advance!!

Set your form box width in your stylesheet in vbulletin admin thats where the comments box gets its width from

Thank for the very quick reply Chuck.

I forgot to mention that I have not integrated with VBulletin, but am using the build in Classifieds comment and user system.

well simply edit your quickcom template and make the rows and cols what you want that work with your style for the textarea row

Way to go - problem solved!!

Many thanks Chuck - I actually overlooked that template entirely.

B=0 (never seen this smiley before!) but it is quite applicable - lol

where exactly is this form box, i am in vbulletin admin style manager area , theirs a bunch of things on this page, i know you dont support this program but do you know what it is called this form box area where i can change the width to a set width so that the sidebar left can be set to this width i specify?

thanks
