Board Width?

[bluebayou]

When I visited the ProBoards Support v5 Beta board for the first time, the very first thing I noticed is how 'narrow" the new board is in comparison to this one. The new board has a very wide blank area to the left and right of the actual board layout. Is there a reason for this? When we admins get our own new board can this be changed to make the V5 board look more like this one, margin-wise?

Does this question even make sense? LOL.

You fully control the width of the board as the admin. The beta board is at a fixed width of 940px instead of the 100% that this v4 support forum is. It completely changeable.

Thank-you, Ryan.

I apologize if some of my questions are a little rudimentary, but I figure that I can't possibly be the only one that's this clueless!

Just to confirm this for you: If you have changed your forum to a custom width using a code, that will not convert over. However, it is extremely easy to change your forum width. There's a box in the theme area where you can either enter pixels or percent width.

Thanks, Patrick. My forums still have the default width settings, so they look just like this one does.

Maybe after the changeover to V5, I'll get a bit more creative.

Thanks, again!
