Event Booking 1.6.5 Increase Field Size was created by Madonna Witte
In Event Booking 1.6.5, how do I increase the size of the fields on the registration form? My field size is tiny and I cannot find where to make this adjustment.. Thank you for your assistance.

That's strange. I guess it is affected by css of your site template. Could you please send me the link to the page so that I can have a look ?

Hi
I looked at your site and the fields are not tiny, the width of it is set to 100% and it is very long. Maybe you were able to change it ?

No, that is the problem...too long and not tall enough for a font size easy for clients to read.
If you could send me a link with directions on how to adjust the length of the field so it will be shorter and to adjust the height of the field to accommodate a larger font . I have searched the help documentation and the forums for an answer. If I cannot make this work, I will have to search for another event booking product that will fit the needs of the organization. Thank you for your time.

Hi Madonna
It is defined in some places, some from your site template css and some from twitter bootstrap css comes in the extension. You can follow my instructions below to change the settings:
1. Look at the css code in line 926 in the file templates/cstc/css/template.css, you will see the css code below :
In the css code above, you will see width: 100%;, remove it and it will look OK (or you can change 100% to 80% for example if you want).
Look at the file components/com_eventbooking/assets/bootstrap/css/bootstrap.css, line 626, you will see the css code below :
In the above code, you will see that it set it set height to 20px. You can change it to the higher number.
Regard,s
Tuan
PS : You should learn how to use Firebug add on for firefox, it is very easy to find and chance css code with that add on

Karma to you!
