Tiny font in Blog Author field 

I'm not sure what the field is called, the topmost where is reads: Author: XXXX, which is changed under blog settings.

The font is so small it is unreadable.

Re: Tiny font in Blog Author field 

Hi Asaph,

The size of this text is configured in the CSS file associated with the blog module (/DesktopModules/Blog/module.css).  The section you're looking for is the blog_description class.  By default, the font-size is set to .7em, which when combined with other styles that use percentage based sizing can cause the font to become too small.  I just changed the CSS for my blog to this:

.blog_Description
{
 font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
 font-size: .9em;
}

HTH,

Don

Re: Tiny font in Blog Author field 

Currently the font-sizes in the CSS of the blog are controlled via the EM sizing method instead of FIXED pixel (i.e. 11px).

This has caused some issues with font sizing because different skins set default font size of the body, and when that is set to small size to begin with, the EM sizing will reduce it further.

I will change the CSS of the module in the next version (03.05.00), but for now, you can simply change the font-size attributes in the CSS file to fixed pixel (i.e. 11px).

This will solve your issue for now.

Re: Tiny font in Blog Author field 

Thank you. This fixed it.

I apprecitate the work you have done to provide this module for DNN. A embedded flash video component would be great. Whenever we have touched our flash elements with the right-cllick/properties applet, things break. So we just tweak the code. Something more plug and play would be cool.

Thanks again.
