    • FAQ in tikipedia

    Posted by Jeff Prideaux on Mon 25 of Jun, 2007 20:49 GMT-0000 posts: 10 United States

    I'm back to using tikipedia. Once I used Gary's changes to allow the right-column, that solved my issue with the center column always having a scroll bar and cutting off content for IE.

    Anyway, I noticed that the FAQ answer listing for tikipedia is not visualy very good. It just puts the questions and answers right up next to each other without any visual boxes or separation between the questions (at least for IE). Are there some easy edits to make the question/answer pair stand out better with the tikipedia theme?

    thanks,

    The page source shows the FAQ questions and answers are displayed in divs like this (angle brackets changed here to parentheses so they won't be stripped out):

    Copy to clipboard
    (div class="faqqa")
   (div class="faqquestion")
      Q: How do I change my theme?
   (/div)
   (div class="faqanswer")
      A: Go to tiki-admin.php, click general and you will see
a drop down list of all available themes for your site.(br /)
   (/div)
(/div)

    You can edit tikipedia.css to give new properties to div.faqqa, div.faqquestion and div.faqanswer. Maybe check other parts of the CSS file for properties to use (for color consistency, etc.), or see FAQs in other themes for ideas. Post again if you're not sure about editing CSS.

    Tannks,

    I simply cut and pasted the pertinate lines of the CSS from moreneat to tikipedia and that worked fine. I like the results. Thanks for the help. Another easy fix!!!
