Are you talking about the category links that show up on the Forum Summary (main) page?

Open the public_forum_summary.pl template. Then search for:

and replace that with:

Thanks for that Skorpion, I've been looking for that too!
Can you also tell me how to change the font of the actual text displayed in posts (not from the cp as that will change everything)
Also, is there a way to change the font face whixh is used when we attempt to post a message in the text box (not the final outcome but the text we type in the white text box..)

Thanks

First question... Open public_topic_page.pl, and search for:
Quote
quote:
Replace $vars_style{FontFace} with your own font settings.

Second question...
Open the Style Templates control panel, and add this into the Header Insert field:
Quote
quote:
Use those, or you can specify whatever other fonts you want. Just be sure to keep the semicolon after each line, otherwise it won't work. Also note that when you specify "10pt" as the size, it appears significantly different in Netscape and most other browsers than it does in Internet Explorer, and it's even different between Netscape 4.X and Netscape 6. I would suggest using several different browsers to test various settings for the size. Or you can just remove that altogether to use the default size specified by the browser.

Thanks for the quick reply Skorpion,
I cut the exact code above (secind one) & pasted it into the header insert section but it didn't work! I tried a different font and size & it still didn't seem to work.
FYI: I'm using IE5.5
Thanks

One more thing, would you have a solution to this problem too:

Thank You for your valuable assistance.

Try using "text/css" with a forward slash instead of a backslash. I messed that up last night when I typed it.

And make sure it's in the Header Insert field of the style template settings, not just the Header field. They're different things, and I think style tags will only work in the Header Insert.

That should work in all IE's past 5.0.

On the other problem, I'm not really a good knowledge source as far as installation and script problems go. Sorry.
