Can some ingenious person guide me today? I'm stumped. My summary pages look very uneven due to unnecessary line breaks in the last column. I either need to remove the break or stretch the cell to get the same effect.
I am not displaying the moderator column so I should have room to consistently get the last post title, author, and date & time easily onto 2 lines rather than an occasional 3 lines.
I think I am looking for the code which generates a <br /> before tha author's name, (which appears in parentheses).
Also, where O where is the mechanism which puts the 3 dots after a truncated post title link? (I would like a little more of the full topic title in this cell rather than a shortened topic title.)
I also increased the page width percentage in the cp.cgi to no avail.
This section of code below is from the Template: public_forum_summary.pl. I hope that's the right one...
Much, much thanks for your consideration.
