phpbb3-Style : Vista different Col-weight

[truecolor]

Hello,

sorry for my bad german-english.

I installed a new phpbb-forum with vista-Style

Some forums are still empty (no posts). That´s the reason, why my columns are so awful displaced:



The column Themen and Beiträge (I found in forumlist_body.html) are fixed on several places with 50px.

Code: Select all

	<th colspan="2">&nbsp;{L_FORUM}&nbsp;</th>
	<th width="50">&nbsp;{L_TOPICS}&nbsp;</th>
	<th width="50">&nbsp;{L_POSTS}&nbsp;</th>
	<th>&nbsp;{L_LAST_POST}&nbsp;</th>

If I try to fix the last column (L_LAST_POST) with e.g. 200px ... nothing happen.

What´s wrong?


Yours sincerely

Hey truecolor,

Thanks,

Patrick, please wait a second. I switched to another Style.

Edit: changed to Vista

The difference in the column widths is due to the content in the "Letzter Beitrag" column. If you notice, each of the cases where the "Forum" column is widest, the "Letzter Beitrag" has the narrowest content. In other words, most of the rows, the "Letzter Beitrag" column contains date/author information for the latest post, but the rows showing the problem only say "Keine Beiträge" in "Letzter Beitrag" column.

This is being caused by the

Code: Select all

width="100%"

in the "Forum" column <td>.

In order to avoid this, you will have to specify a width for the "Letzter Beitrag" <td>. The width must be sufficient to accommodate the widest possible date information.

Hello Patrick,

thanks for your answer.

Here You can see the reaction of the cols in dependance of entries / no entries.

It seem, that all cols are dependence to the col "Themen":

No entry (in col "Themen") ... all other cols spread out next to symmetrical. Maybe "Autor"-col is fixed.

Any entry (in col "Themen") ... all other cols adept himself to :

forumlist_body.html

Code: Select all

<th colspan="2">&nbsp;{L_FORUM}&nbsp;</th>
<th width="50">&nbsp;{L_TOPICS}&nbsp;</th>
<th width="50">&nbsp;{L_POSTS}&nbsp;</th>
<th>&nbsp;{L_LAST_POST}&nbsp;</th>

Maybe "Autor"-col is fixed, but I can´t find the responsible entry.

I´m a little bit obstinately (...is this a typical germany mentality??)? In this case exceptionally!!

Hey truecolor,

Our pleasure to try to help. I actually am not getting this at all on my web browser - Firefox. What web browser are you using? For example, Firefox, Internet Explorer, Safari, etc.?

Did you try what John suggested above? To do that, open forumlist_body.html and find:

Code: Select all

<td class="row2" align="center" nowrap="nowrap">

And then add a width to it, like:

Code: Select all

<td class="row2" align="center" nowrap="nowrap" width="200">

Or:

Code: Select all

<td class="row2" style="width:200px;" align="center" nowrap="nowrap">

After you upload, please be sure to clear your cache. Please let us know what happens.

Thanks,

Patrick
