Change Column Width

[HotRod Richard]

I am using the "Created By" column for this example, it will work the same for any column you wish to change.

Admin > Themes > Advanced Styles & CSS > then click the Style Sheet tab

Scroll down about half way down the page until you see /* Thread List */ in red, which should be around line 896, 7 lines below that on line 903 you will see the code below, with the exception that the default will be 14%. I added 3% to the created by column to keep the users name on one line, instead of Richard dropping down to the line under HotRod.

Now the whole name of HotRod Richard stays on one line. This would only drop down to the second line while viewing in a narrower browser or screen. This might be useful too if you have users with longer names.

After you've made your change remember to click "Save Theme"

.threads .created-by { width: 17%; text-align: @thread_align_created_by; }

Then scroll down to /* Conversation List */ in red found on line 918, 5 lines lower on line 923 should also be a created by width so you will want to change that to match what you changed your width to under Thread List

.conversations .created-by, .conversations .recipients { width: 17%; text-align: @conversation_align_created_by; }

"Save Theme"

You will find the other column widths in the same areas if you wish to change those sizes too
