    How can i change this? the tags are overflowing into the topic title area and it looks pretty awful, is there a stylesheet somewhere that applies to the tags? you can view what i’m talking about at http://www.TheSoldiersNetwork.com ; then click forums at the top. thanks a lot in advance for your help!

  • You appear to be preventing logged out users viwing these pages? at least you have an odd url parameter at work on the index page when selecting bp pages, you might want to check that it’s possible to view these pages before posting the link?

    Yes there will be a stylesheet controlling the tags which one will depend on your theme, with bp-default the styles will be in default.css.

    You can identify where by using a tool such as Firebug for Firefox and use it to highlight the element/s which will show you the applied styles, stylesheet path, and line number to locate the ruleset. in the lower pane on the right hand section.

    i am having trouble finding the correct stylesheet still! even with firebug!

    Yep sorry forums tag is a widget one of a handful provided and hardcoded into the sidebar.php however the shame is that it calls on bp_forums_tag_heat_map() to generate the tags and the tags are sized using inline pixel values which means it’s almost impossible to override them short of hacking the source code, I can’t locate bp_forums_tag_heat_map() which is odd my search across files should have found it but couldn’t.

    Ok managed to track the function down and it looks as though it accepts arguments so you can try:

    (‘smallest=10&largest=42&sizing=px&limit=50’)

    These are the defaults I’ve shown so adjust to requirements also you only need pass the required parameter not all if not desired so ( ‘largest=32’ )
