css for the attachment display for chat window | Forum

dave Leader

Hi i have attacked this for some time now and cant seem to find the css to either 

drop this down or display none on the chat.  As you can see its getting in the way of

 the textarea and i need to get rid of or move the attachment div down. 


I tried attacking from css, no good all i was able to do was to make the 

textarea bigger which helped some. 


Then i tried to attack this from the html side but still nothing, even commenting 

out some code did nothing. 


Does anyone know the css or html file where this is at.   It points to conversation 

html but thats not it. 


thanks see image

yeah same dave i spent days try css and in the html to drop the smileys and attach buttons down a line as they get in the road of the text as you type the words go under them

Ok my dear


in your theme css file search for codes below and replace it with new codes below too, if  you don't found the main codes insert them 


1- found this code ' .ow_chat_message_block .ow_chat_message textarea {

    height: 42px;

    line-height: 17px;

    font-size: 12px;

    position:relative;

    overflow:auto;

    border: none;

    border-radius: 0;

    margin: 0;

    min-height: 17px;

    padding: 12px 36px 4px 6px;

    resize: none;

    width: 100%;

} '

and replace it with '.ow_chat_message_block .ow_chat_message textarea {

    height: 42px;

    line-height: 17px;

    font-size: 12px;

    position:relative;

    overflow:auto;

    border: none;

    border-radius: 0;

    margin: 0;

margin-bottom:30px;

    min-height: 17px;

    padding: 12px 36px 4px 6px;

    resize: none;

    width: 100%;

} '


2- find this code ' .ow_chat_message .ow_attachment_icons {

    float: right;

    position: absolute;

    top: 10px;

    right: 8px;

    z-index: 2;

}'


and replace it with ' .ow_chat_message .ow_attachment_icons {

    float: right;

    position: absolute;

    top: 45px;

    right: 8px;

    z-index: 2;

what do you said? that is just css code, not cause any error, may be did something wrong

and also to see changes you should enable dev mode, you did that ?
