Template Question - Setting Margins Can't Post
Hi All,

I wish to change the default left and right margin settings of Article Manager. In other words, I don’t want the left and right tables to be flush with the edge of the screen. Instead, I would like them to be indented by 50 pixels or so.

Any help would be appreciated.

Hi there!

Thanks for your post. :)

To modify the overall layout of the pages, you'll want to modify the templates -- the two main ones in particular will be the index/default.html and article/default.html templates.

Here's a tutorial detailing how to work with the templates:

I hope this helps! Let me know if you have any other questions or concerns. :)

Should anyone else want to do this, the change you make is:

/templates/index/default

Replace <table border=0 cellspacing=0 cellpadding=0 width=100% height=100%>

with

<table border=0 cellspacing=0 cellpadding=0 width=95% height=100%>

That is assuming you wish to have a 5% border on your page.

Hi Steve,

Make sure you make the same change to the article/default.html template so that your articles match the index pages!
