Hi everybody,
My question is not very difficult, and already indicated in the title : what should I do to add more space between different lines in PMs ?
(I find the formatting too “compressed” for the moment).
I'm using the “Detroit” skin.
Thanks in advance,
Augustin

please provide a link to your site or an image with the areas you are referring to highlighted because I am not sure I understand exactly where you are referring to…
oh wait… in PMs?? when viewing one sent to you do you mean?

If I understand, there are two ways to accomplish this…
in the skin css file, on line 320, you can change the top and bottom padding (the two zeroes)… this will likely affect other places in the forum display that use the <p> tag so be cautious…
or you can add a new directive in the skin file
.sfpmcontent p {padding-bottom:15px !important;}
of course change the 15 until you are happy… In 3.2, I will fix up that 0 padding for <p> tags…
if you modify your skin, you may want to make a copy to keep it from getting overwrriten in upgrades… just copy the current directory, rename it and then rename the .css file to match the new directory name exactly…

Thanks a lot ! You've exactly got it and found a nice solution.
I had found this “sfpmcontent” line, but was unsure of what to add.
Thanks again,
Augustin

that is a new line that needs to be added… the one you found doesnt have the 'p' part…
so add the new line, but be careful if you cut and paste from above as you may get unwanted formatting… just ype it in as shown…

my actual change for 3.2 will be
.sfpmcontent p {padding:5px 0 10px 0 !important;}

I have of course added a new line (so I have now one line with “sfpmcontent”, one with “sfpmcontent p”).
Thanks for the precisions in your latest message. What are the 4 values for ?

first is top padding, second is right padding, third is bottom padding and fourth is left padding…
the !important says this style should be adhered to even if a later style (like our td p class) tries to override it…
