Changing the size of Author Column
I would like to make the author column smaller, and the subject column wider. Is this possible and if so how would I do this? Thanks.

Hi,

You can edit the column widths in the templates. Look at forum_view.html template.

Cheers,

Alex

I wasn't able to change the widths from here, I acutally do'nt know which numbers to change. However, i have a new question. It seems that every column is resizing to fit longer text, for ex. the author collum and last post colum expand to fit bigger names. What I want is for all the columns to shrink and the SUBJECT column to expand. Any thoughts?

Here' s a link for an example:

THanks.

Has anybody at all tinkered with the colums sizes? I do'nt like how the Author column adjusts for the size of the name, leaving the Topic column condensed.
