Change amount of featured resources?

[Xyphien]

When I feature content on my resources section it only displays 2. Is there any way to increase the amount to three?

 

[Paul B]

The limit is 6 but if only 2 can fit on a single row, that's all that will show - the rest will be hidden.

Is there a way to change the size slightly, as there is enough space for a third one, but it only displays 2.

 

[Paul B]

Changing the width for the featured resource to 298 px seems to work.

You can use .featuredResourceList .featuredResource in EXTRA.css for that.

@Brogan

.featuredResourceList
{
width: 298px;
}

Has actually made it worse:



Also,the .featuredResource didn't do anything.

 

[Paul B]

Search for it in the original CSS template and change it there.

He gave an entire selector to use -- what you applied was different (only partial), which is why it didn't work as expected.

so, what do I have to enter to get it to work?

 

[Paul B]

The entire selector as I posted, or edit the original CSS template directly.

This should help: https://xenforo.com/community/resources/how-to.4390/

To do the entire sector do I do this:
.featuredResourceList
{
width: 298px;
}
.featuredResource
{
width: 298px;
}


or this?
.featuredResource
.featuredResourceList
{
width: 298px;
}


I'm a noob when it comes to stuff like this... so, I'm really unsure what I'm doing.

 

[Paul B]

The selector is exactly as a I posted it - .featuredResourceList .featuredResource

So I simply put that exact thing in Extra.css and it magically works? Like I said, I have little to no idea what I'm doing.

 

[Paul B]

I recommend editing the original CSS template instead then.

idk where the original css is... and that link you sent me just made me even more confused...

I also tried:
.featuredResourceList .featuredResource
{
width: 298;
}
and it still doesn't work, so doing the original css I guess is the only way to do it, but Idk where that is.

Use the template search function.

The guide I linked you to is extremely detailed.
I would be surprised if you can't find it following that.

I see no width section to edit?

I don't think you've actually search the templates, like this:

 

[Xyphien]

Alright... I finally fixed it XD Thanks! This can be locked now.

The limit is 6 but if only 2 can fit on a single row, that's all that will show - the rest will be hidden.

If the number of featured resources is at 6, does it mean need to unfeature some files before new ones can be featured?

 

[Paul B]

There is no limit for featured resources: https://xenforo.com/community/resources/featured

The limit of 6 is for the blocks which are displayed on the resource index: https://xenforo.com/community/resources/
