Invision Community 5: A video walkthrough creating a custom theme and homepage By Matt Thursday at 04:02 PM
HoundsTooth Posted May 25, 2021 Posted May 25, 2021 Hi all, New to Invision Community and new to this forum. I have recently installed forum 4.5.2 and migrated from vBulletin 4.0. Everything went fairly smoothly, and after a few PHP tweaks the convertor ran very well and i was impressed with the results. The forum owner has asked me to increase the maximum width, from 1340 to something higher such as 1600. I looked at this guide: But i am still unsure where to increase the width. I was hoping i could edit custom.css. I used the developer tools in Chrome to try and find the setting but i was unsuccessful. Can anyone help here? Thanks in advance.

Yes, custom.css is the place to go: :root{ --container--width:1600px; } I hope you enjoy your new software 🙂 christopher-w, HoundsTooth and Jimi Wikman 2 1

I knew it would be fairly simple - thanks for pointing me in the right direction. I am enjoying using the software - it's different to my normal IT work and has been good fun migrating, re-designing and deploying our forum. Kudos to the converter for doing all the 'heavy lifting' - i was very impressed by the results. Nick Edited May 25, 2021 by HoundsTooth typo Meddysong, Jimi Wikman and Davyc 3
