as far as i remember i havent done any file changes, was just tweaking around the banner, nothing to do with editing any files, i might have mistakenly done so. is there a way to restore the style back to the way it was?

Open theme/content.css
FIND

Code: Select all

/* Post author */
p.author {
	margin: 0 15em 0.6em 0;
	padding: 0 0 5px 0;
	font-family: Verdana, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;
	font-size: 10em;
	line-height: 1.2em;
and change font-size: 10em; to font-size: 1em; ;)

now your content.css is correct :

Code: Select all

/* Post author */
p.author {
	margin: 0 1em 0.6em 0;
	padding: 0 0 5px 0;
	font-family: Verdana, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;
	font-size: 1em;
	line-height: 1.2em;
}
that was all you needed to do was download content.css, change and upload.

your forum now looks correct from here. Editing in the ACP are you?
