    Hi Marcel,

    Thanks again for creating such a wonderful guestbook plugin.

    I am playing around with all the functionalities and found that the entry edit area size can only be stretched vertically, but not horizontally.

    Is there any possibility in the future version to make this possible? This will make the writing/editing much easier for the moderators.

    Cheers.

    Hi Acon,
    The forms.css in wp-admin sets the resize: vertical; CSS rule. If I disable that, it can be resized smaller, but not bigger than the postbox.

    You could add custom CSS to wp-admin for textarea { resize: both; }. But I assume you would want the postbox to be bigger as well, right? I am not sure how the CSS for those postboxes is set up, it seems a bit fiddly. It seems to be only possible by having both columns below each other and setting the width to max width. Is that really what you want? If so, I could provide some custom CSS.

    Hi @mpol

    Thanks for your reply. I tried to understand what you said here. What do you make by “having both columns below each other”?

    It also looks like I need to change the WordPress default CSS file which is not what I prefer. I use Oxygen so there is no theme on my site whatsoever. I use a plugin called Advanced Scripts (similar to Code Snippet) to do what people usually do in the function.php and if a custom CSS code can be applied this way, it’ll be a better solution for me.

    Thanks again.

    Regards,
    acon
