Any tips on that one ?
Will keep looking and T&E.

Oops !
Sorry, just realized it is the attachments column... guess will leave that one.

Thanks again for your help !

By default, the 2nd column is for the post icons.
If you remove this column from your forumdisplay_thread template, maybe you need to reduce the colspan value in your forumdisplay_threadlist template.

For the thread rating column, it will be removed automatically if you unthick the Yes, allow threads to be rated setting for that forum.

Thank you for the 2nd column reminder and direction to ACP rating section.

Currently trying to find search button (scrnshot attached) on the Search Topics screen display, to try and make the button display larger.
Any direction on that one ?
Will keep looking, but no luck so far, seems like the 'needle in haystack' on this one.

You can try to use a css class for the input tags, and customize the css class.

Thanks for the reply and suggestion.

Had to add...
.button {font-size:40px;}
...at /cache/themes/theme1&2/global.css

Font size controlled size of ALL (that could find) buttons... but thats fine, they all needed to be larger in this case.

Thanks again for your help !

I recommend not editing any files inside /cache/themes
Use the AdminCP CSS editor instead, because those files get overwritten.

Thank you for the headsup !
So, after editing the /cache/themes files, .button showed up in Home ACP » Themes » Default/Editing: global.css.
Does that indicate all classes edited/added at AdminCSS editor go to .../themes/..., and if it ends up in that editor (even if edited at files) there is less chance of it getting overwritten ?

Also, quick semi-related question... trying to 'edit' error message (scrnshot attached) to change text to match thread fields (subject and message, xthreads fine) for missing text in thread fields (scrnshot attached), and looks like controlled by variable {$errorlist} ?
Are {$variables} found in database ?

If you edit the css style via Admin CP, the cache will be overwritten. That's why you need to use the Admin CP CSS editor if you want to edit your CSS style.

You can try to look at the datahandler_post.lang.php file.

Thank you for the confirmation !
So, just to confirm, the "CSS editor" is... ACP » Themes » Default/Editing: global.css ?

That was it, thank you very much !

And, the {$variables} location/s question, any place to look for a simple description of what they are all about ?
Found some interesting info at http://community.mybb.com/thread-109408....http://community.mybb.com/thread-109408.html?highlight=variable , but still not really sure (think the beginner in that discussion is quite a bit more advanced than I), in general, how variables work, and where (if there actually is a location) they are located.
Will do some more reading of the mybb.com thread, but, if you happen to know of a more simple tutorial, that would be great.

Thanks again for your help !
