De.scription and Message

I was wondering how to increase the size of the shoutbox.

I found in forum/templates/index_body.tpl

<iframe></iframe>

I understand the height has to be increased, but that increases the frame and not the actual shoutbox.

What file is {U_SHOUTBOX}?

Also how do you increase the refresh rate, or show I?

open fisubice/index_body.tpl

FIND

[code]  <table><BEGIN><tr><td><form><table><tr><td>{L_LOGIN_LOGOUT}</td></tr><tr><td><table><tr> <td>{L_USERNAME}]

REPLACE WITH

[code]  <BEGIN><Start><table> <tr> <td><span><a>{L_SHOUTBOX}</a></span></td> </tr> <tr><td> <iframe></iframe> </td> </tr> </table><table><tr><td></td><td></td><td></td></tr></table><table><tr><td><img></td></tr></table><End><END><table><BEGIN><tr><td><form><table><tr><td>{L_LOGIN_LOGOUT}</td></tr><tr><td><table><tr> <td>{L_USERNAME}]

Not sure what that is supposed to do, but still looks the same.

[Helter]

the same as what? not the same as default. You said you wanted the shoutbox larger... there it is

I changed the file and when I looked , it was still exactly the size.

Looking to make it higher in height. So you can see more comments.

I'll try it again, but I don't see the change.

Do I need to clear the cache?

[.QUACK.Major.Pain]

Ok - I look at the before and after code, and the height is set to 210 in both, so I don't know where the height change is between the two.

Ok if you need to make the height of the shoutbox larger then clearly as you know already just increase the the height of the 210 to whatever you want....

you seem to be answering your own question in your posts...

Wrong.

Increasing the height to more than 120 increases only the iframe height.
The shoutbox inside the iframe still remains the normal size.

That's where i think the {U_SHOUTBOX} size has to be increased too.

That's why i ask exactly what file is this calling to.

[found it]

my bad...

Also increase the size in shoutbox_body.tpl

Code: Select all

     <iframe>         </iframe>

to whatever you need

Perfect. Exactly what I was looking for .

Thanks for the help on that.

Is there any way to set automatic refreshing on just the shoutbox?
Or is it already and can I adjust it?
