Align Forum Left or Right?

[DeltaDart]

Is there a way to align the forum to either the left or right side of the screen?

Hi DeltaDart,

This is indeed possible. To do this, visit your admin panel then navigate to Themes > Colors & Styles. On the next page, click the Style Sheet tab. Around line 126, find the line for #wrapper, which by default would read as:
#wrapper { width: @wrapper_width; margin: 0 auto; overflow-x: hidden; }

If you want to make the forum align to the left, add in the position and left attributes like so:
#wrapper { width: @wrapper_width; position: absolute; left: 0; margin: 0 auto; overflow-x: hidden; }

To make the forum align to the right, add in the position and right attributes like so:
#wrapper { width: @wrapper_width; position: absolute; right: 0; margin: 0 auto; overflow-x: hidden; }

Hope this helps

Hi Ricky. Thanks for the above, however it says Syntax Error when I attempt it

#wrapper { background-color: #1a1918; box-shadow: 0px 0px 30px rgba(0,0,0,0.5); width: @wrapper_width; absolute; right: 0; margin: 0 auto; overflow-x: hidden; }
.wrapper2 { margin: 0 auto; width: 94%; }

I did also try add it to .wrapper, but that made no difference. Any suggestions?

It worked for me.  I went with align right and am asking my members now what they think.

I guess it could be because I have two forum wrappers so I need to edit both?
But then it only gives me the error for line 128 - which is where the above wrapper is, that I added it to.


Edit:
Never mind, it works now. I missed out the word "position:" lol
