Problems with imported theme

[skylarzenar58]

Hello, I am having issues with a theme I imported. I want to size it down, because it's too wide but when I go to size it down in the themes section, it won't. I don't know if this is the theme itself or what. I'm not sure how visible t will be for anyone to see unless you join, but it's currently for only staff to see and it's called 'Pursuit of happiness.'

If anyone has any idea on how to size the forum down or what I should do, let me know. That theme has a lot of space on the left side where the number of threads are, long with recent posts. and the space between that and the actual banners that i have up for threads. And yes, I tested and the banners are not effecting this at all.

The theme author elected to define the width of the forum at the bottom of the CSS file rather than use the existing structure exposed through the Theme tools we provide. You can change the width at the bottom of the Style Sheet tab of the Advanced Styles & CSS section. I'd also recommend suggesting to the author that they change how that part of their theme is handled so that it doesn't trip up other people in the future.

Tim Camara, Thanks for the reply!

I'll let you know if I need any help, but currently I'm looking for the styles sheet to find the place to change the width. Hmmmm..

If you haven't found it yet, it's here: Admin Area > Themes > Advanced Styles & CSS > Style Sheet, and the lines you're looking for should be at the very bottom.

Tim Camara,

Still looking, I'll let you know what I come up with. (I found the sheet, just looking for the part.)

Tim Camara,

So I found the width at the bottom and I set it to 80% but it doesn't change it on the forum... Not sure if it's me or the theme.

Im also having issues with cutting down between the threads and the numbers off to the right with all the latest posts.. A lot of spare room i cant cut down on.

Looks like you had it set to 85%. I set it to 80% for you just now.

Edit: 
For your Threads spacing issue, search your CSS for

.boards .threads { width: 9%; text-align: left; white-space: nowrap; }
and make the 9% smaller. (You'll probably want to adjust one of the other widths higher to match, they should be right around the same place)
