Reduce Font Size
-
This link shows my issue http://www.rosstheexplorer.com/comparisons-between-australia-and-europe/. I do not want the widget to say ‘Ross The Exp…’ I want it to say ‘Ross The Explorer’. he issue only occurs on large screen devices. I tried solving the issue by altering the height and width of the plugin but that did not solve my issue.
Can I resolve the issue by reducing the font size of the widget? I tried tweaking the plugins CSS and PHP files but had no luck.
Thank you
Ross

Hey ross,
I don’t believe that site is running my plugin, but I’d love to help you out with this. There are a couple things to note before I begin.
1. Facebook controls ALL styling of the widget.
2. The widget’s width will adapt to it’s container unless specified a specific width. If you specify a width greater than it’s container, then it will NOT go outside the container width.
3. Facebook will only draw the widget on the page once. ie: resizing your browser will not stretch or shrink the widget.
Just keep those points in mind. To accomplish your goal of displaying your full page name you will need to modify the CSS of your theme. I will point you in the right direction.
You need to widen your sidebar and shrink your content a bit. Without being able to give you exact numbers, I can tell you these values need to change:
Sidebar: http://i.imgur.com/QBacblh.png
Content: http://i.imgur.com/Hk2Qqpj.png
Let me know if that makes sense.
Kind regards,
Dylan
Thank You
I looked at your screenshots and they prompted me to use the IE developer tools.
I was able to solve my problem by a) increasing the width of my widget to 28% b) replacing my Jetlack FB plugin with your plugin. I didn’t realise I had the Jetpack one set up.
I’m glad I was able to help! 🙂
IE Dev tools & Google Chrome dev tools are super helpful for that kind of thing.
If you like the plugin and have a few seconds do you mind leaving a review?
