Post size font

**Jella** · June 29, 2009

Where would I go to force the size of the actual wiki post size to a larger font? Not the subject etc... but the content. Thank you.

I looked at the css but its confusing for me.

I want to force post size to what is vbulletin bbcode size 3

Not sure what "size 3" is because it is going to be different on every board. Go to AdminCP -> CES VaultWiki -> Style Manager -> Wiki CSS -> vault_css_boxes:

Code:

.vw-content { font-size: 15px; }

Will this force a rebuild of all posted wiki content? I am hoping before I change it, that it will. Is the font style there too? I want all fonts to be verdana. I'll go poke around.

This is all CSS, so it won't need to be rebuilt. For Verdana, you would want to put

Code:

font-family: Verdana;

inside the brackets.

Thank you peg. Another question, inside a wiki (wiki only) not images, not template, but a wiki post.

The article sites in a blue lined box, what is that box called in the template, I hope I am asking this right. See picture.

See the blue line under

then the blue line... what is that called where it ends and the blue line shows as an outline around the wiki? article container?

If you mean the divider between the article body (.bodyContent) and the created/edited by info, that is in the template called vault_article_postbit:

HTML Code:

&lt;if condition="$show['post_hr']">&lt;hr size="1" style="color:$stylevar[tborder_bgcolor]; clear: both;" />&lt;/if>

If you mean the box around the entire wiki that the tabs stick up out of, you would edit vault_css_boxes. Find:

Code:

.vw-content {
	background-color: #fff;
	color: #000;
	border: 1px solid #0B198C;
}

It's near the top and may be different if you've already made some changes. But you can change the border color by modifying the #value of the border attribute.

Adding to the font size question rather than start a new one...., I cannot find a chart anywhere that that tells me how to compare .bodyContent { font-family: verdana; font-size: 12px; } in relation to the vbulletin editor size of 2 .... 12px seems a tad smaller than vbulletins size 2, and 13px seems a tad bigger.........vbulletins editor font size 2 is what I want...

so instead of using font-size: 12px; what can be used in its place? font-size:=2; ???? so i can equally match the vbeditor size 2

I've tried looking at every kind of css chart in a search.... so I'm asking here since its a wiki issue

This is a common problem, and not a wiki one but a general web design problem, and unfortunately it looks like there is no easy conversion. I'm honestly surprised that reset.css doesn't attempt to fix this problem, since operating system and browser defaults can complicate things even more. Every font has a different scale that must be used, because different fonts are different sizes and have different resolution, as you would notice in a program like MS Word.

I'm not sure what the ppem is for verdana, although knowing you need to find that out may help you. Here's a page which goes in depth about the problem and the solution (and how the solution doesn't work in Internet Explorer for font size 2 without making some custom rules): http://style.cleverchimp.com/font_si...ervals.html#cc (if you scroll up slightly you'll see a "definition" of ppem)

It's possible the changes proposed by that article are already implemented in vBulletin 4. You can test this value to see if it achieves what you're looking for cross-browser:

Code:
