Hi,
I’m trying to remove posts authors avatars from the main blog. Good thing is that I found necessary php line in index.php, bad thing – after complete remove main column of the blog remains on the same place.

How can I change width of the main column after remove of the authors avatars?

Probably it shoul be these lines in style.css, but they do nothing (even remove doesn’t help):

div#content .left-menu {
float: left;
width: 170px;
}
div#content .main-column {
margin-left: 190px;
}

thank you.

Can you be specific?

Are you talking about the blog author on the left hand side of the blog entry?

If so, copy over /bp-themes/bp-default/single.php to your child theme and remove the “author-box” div.

Then in your CSS to remove the left margin, do this:

div.post div.post-content {margin-left:0 !important;}

Does this solution still work? I am using Current WP and BP version. I removed the author box div in single.php but I still I can’t find where to modify the CSS. Any help would be appreciated ,thanks!

Referring to the earlier post, This was the only div.post div.post-content I could find in the css and when changed to 0 it didn’t do anything

div.post div.post-content, div.comment-content {
margin-right: 105px;
margin-left: 0;
}

Anyone? Thanks a bunch!

hi,
this solution works for child theme.
you add code of r-a-y to your style.css and all works like a charm.
(check topics on how to create child theme).
