Rheddy Posted September 8, 2017 Posted September 8, 2017 Some forum skin developers include such a setting in their forum skin. The previous version of IPS, 4.1.x, had a plugin for such a setting. The plugin may still work with IPS 4.2.x. The plugin has yet to be updated for 4.2.x, though. It's called EZ Full Width, and you can find it here: On 8/23/2017 at 9:59 PM, crabpaws said: There are no settings for it in ACP > Community, search for Fluid View gets zip in ACP or in Help Guides, couldn't find any topics discussing this.
crabpaws Posted September 11, 2017 Author Posted September 11, 2017 Is Fluid View a must-have plug-in?

Rheddy Posted September 11, 2017 Posted September 11, 2017 it sure is. Before, you had to edit the setting in your CSS template bits but now you just have to edit the skin settings. No more editing files for that.
Simon Woods Posted September 11, 2017 Posted September 11, 2017 @crabpaws When you say "fluid view" do you mean the new feature from 4.2 where you can change the forum listing on the board index to a topic listing with forum filters in the sidebar OR do you mean the setting for the width of your site?
Rheddy Posted September 11, 2017 Posted September 11, 2017 @Simon Woods, Fluid View only increases or decreases the overall width of your IPS installation. It can be modified up to 100%. It doesn't affect the sidebar. Only the overall width of your forums.

The first part is referencing this: ... since it's not clear what the OP was talking about and Adriano had already referenced the other option (fluid forum view). As such I am asking for the OP to clarify what exact thing they are asking for help with.
Rheddy Posted September 11, 2017 Posted September 11, 2017 I've been familiar with "fluid view" vs 'fixed width" on IPS forum skins ever since 2.x. It's just that there are quite a few of us who prefer "fluid width" forum skins. Simply because they readjust for the user depending on their monitor size.
crabpaws Posted September 13, 2017 Author Posted September 13, 2017 I don't know what Fluid View is. Somebody told me to activate it. What exactly does it do, and where is it in the ACP?
