Hi guys,
I want to make the whole size of WP look bigger.
Right now I have Gallery2 installed and when I choose a picture it fals out of the WordPress size.
So I want to adjust the size of WordPress but couldn't find any option ?
Does someone know where I can do this ?

What do you mean by adjusting the size of WordPress?
Are you referring to text size or is there some problem with the layout you're using right now?

It depends on what you resize, but I know that in 1.5.x the way to resize text was to increase the percentage that I think was located in the CSS, but don't quote me on that. As for resizing everything all at once, I should think that the CSS file would also be the place to do that, but I imagine each portion of the template must be addressed separately. Your sidebar, header, body, etc. must be individually resized.

No I'm not want to change the text size but the size of WordPress Layout. Right now when I'm viewing my album the picture is bigger than my WordPress size.
I just need to find where I can edit the width of WordPress to make it larger.
Here is an example :

You'll have to edit the style.css file in the theme you're using.
It's either going to be the #page or #content, or a mixture of stuff, I haven't played with the default theme much.
Probably the #content
--
Edit: Nope, not the content, just looked at the file, you'll have to change various things to get a larger post area since the layout consists of pictures.

Damn, I really don't know how to fix this.
And I really want to get this fixed :(
Does somebody knows which file to edit ?
I won't be the first one with this problem right ?
Thanks so far 21stproject

Okeey I just found out it doesn't matter which size WP is because the gallery width size is to large. So I don't have to edit the WordPress but the Gallery2 size.
But the question remains :D
How do I edit the Gallery 2 width size ?

Unfortunately, I don't use Gallery so I don't know.
But you are right, now that I looked at your link again, the image fits, the whole gallery doesn't.
I'd try hunting for the css file that styles the gallery.
Locate the tags that wrap around the gallery code and resize that...
It's going to be something to that effect unless gallery has its own admin page and allows you to edit the theme without messing around with the files.

This is the css file of Gallery2
I can't find anything that would change the layout.
Maybe you can take a look ?

I'd still need to know the html code for the gallery to know what tags are where but...
As far as I can tell, the css is fluid, no fix-widths aside from this;
#gsSidebar {
border-right-width: 1px;
width: 175px;
overflow: hidden;
}
What you can try doing is to decrease that width and see if it works.
You can also wrap the entire gallery code with a div tag and style it so the width is...whatever width you'd like.

Well the width change didn't worked.
I think that is for a sidebar which I already disabled.
The second option I don't understand ?!
This is the link to the gallery ( Not intergrated ) :

I looked over the html code and here's what we're going to do, see how the body is a class called "gallery"?
This tag wraps around the entire gallery, of course you can't have the body tag in your blog because you can only have one body tag for a page, so I'm guessing when integrated, the whole gallery is wrapped around a div tag of class gallery. If that's true then you should add this at the end of your css file;
.gallery {
width: 600px;
}
or however wide you want your gallery to be.
Maybe that would work.

I added the code to my css file but it didn't worked.
Too bad, it was a nice thought.
Any options left ? :)
Posted 6 years ago #
eh, well, that should have worked.
My last ditch effort would be to encase the entire gallery code with a div tag, give it a unique id, like, I don't know; #MyGallery?
<div id="MyGallery">
<!--Gallery Code-->
</div>
#MyGallery{
width: 600px;
}

How about setting
#gallery {
width: 100%;
}

Didn't worked either. Anyway I justed found out that some other theme's that come allong with Gallery2 don't have that problem. I think I will use one of the theme's to fix this problem.
Tnx anyway for you support
Really appriciated !
