Forum name formatting (26th May 11 at 1:17pm UTC) Resolved
Hello. Am fairly new to all this but..... How can I change the look of the forum name at the top of the forum. Normal sort of stuff - font,size,colour, italics or not etc. I can't find it on the customise skin features. Have searched these boards but can't find anything. I'm hoping it's quite simple. Thank you

Hi, Do you remember what skin you chose when you signed up for the forum? If not, if you could go into the "Customize Skin Colours & Settings" page and check the name of it there. Unless you're using a custom/plain one? I ask as some of the default skins we offer have image headers which don't have much support for you to change how they look. - Ross

I think it was the plain blue one . The first one in the range.

OK, go your admin panel and then into "Customize Skin Colours & Settings". At the bottom of this page there is a textbox for "Additional CSS Code". Enter this there. Remove any lines you don't want / edit any of the parts in red. You can also add any other CSS effects here that you want or just ask if there is something specific you want to change/achieve here. #welcome_table h1 { font-size: 35px; /* Font Size / color: #f1f1f1; / Text Colour / font-style: italic; / Italics / font-weight: normal; / Remove Bold / text-decoration: underline; / Underline / font-family: 'Courier New'; / Font Name / text-align: right; / Alignment */ }
