Lina, or the other admins... do you know how I can change my settings so that I always have my posts in a font of my choosing? Do I have to select my text every time to change the font, color and/or size or is there a setting I can click on somewhere?

Thanks!

Why? You don't want to be the same as the rest of us, Marj???

[Lina]

Okay, I just downloaded and installed a modification that will allow you to do that (just for you, Marj! ). Go into My Settings -> Forums -> iFont settings. I just tried it out... and it works! Sorry, am excited because I had to mess with the php settings... I was afraid I would break the site or something while doing it... so glad that didn't happen!

[Lina]

Only problem is that the font reverts back after editing... I can't do anything about that, though. I'll keep my eye out for other mods as they come up to see if I can replace this one... but for now it at least works when you post the first time.

Lina,

You're way cool!

[Marj R.C.]

Awwww, Lina, you didn't have to do that! You're a doll. Kimberly, I'm a rebel what can I say?!


Hmmm... didn't work this time. will try again.

[Marj R.C.]

Ah yes! It did work! It wasn't showing in my preview post. Now to see if it works a second time!


ETA --------- IT WORKED!!!! AND there are a whole bunch more smileys. Lina, you rock!

Hmmm.... my 2nd post had the correct font settings, but I went and edited to say that and now it's back to the original! Want to bet THIS one will be my settings? LOL Anyway, it's definitely no big deal at all. I was just asking.

I figured out the "Font/Size." This post is Georgia 12 pt.

Help...I lost the color that I was using for my posts! How do I set it up so that it is always dark blue?

Hi Debbie,

We did a update to the forum software this evening, from 3.1.2 to 3.1.4.
Sorry about the issue with your text color. Apparently the upgrade went very well.. I do not see any errors or issues, othen than the text color thing.

Thanks for the heads up!

I too wanted to check how to set default font and size for a long time.

Lina, I don't see the option "iFont" under Forum.

[Marj R.C.]

Hmmm... I dont' see it either, Poornima. Will see what that's about.

[Lina]

iFont is fixed... sorry about the temporary delay everyone! Sadly, all your old posts won't change back and if you had changed your iFont settings before you will have to do it again... just what happened with the update. Let me know if you have any other problems!

[Poornima]

Thanks, Lina! I am hoping this will show up in my selected font and font size.

YAY! It worked!!

Uh oh! When I edited, it sure went back to the default font. Is there way to fix the software so that we can keep the selected font and font size even if we edit the post?

Edited: to check the iFont settings and add comments.
