Hi.
I'm having trouble trying to figure out how to change the cellspacing within a category for this page: Geneology Geek}
(I haven't removed the .html page yet)

I found the cellspacing and cellpadding in the main.tpl template.
But, that only changed the cellspacing around the different categories.
I want to make space beteween the lines of the subcategories.

For example, I have all the US states listed as a a subcategories under the United States category. I want them all to show on the homepage.
But, they are soo scrunched up. I want more space between the lines so people can read it better and not click on the wrong link due to no space.

Is this possible?

I also changed the font size but that didn't help much.

I've been working for many hours on this and having been able to figure it out. So, any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Open the main.css and look for Content visible to registered users only.

I have changed this to Content visible to registered users only.

and it makes a difference in the way I think your after.

mmm, just tested this out and it doesn't add space between the lines of the subcats.

In that section of the main.css you can add the line Content visible to registered users only.

This will create spaces between the lines of youe subcats as well as around them.

HI.
I added that line and it hasn't changed the main page (index.php).

Thanks for trying.

Strange it works fine here. Do you have MSN or Yahoo?

Since that didn't work.
I tried adding it to the BODY section of the style.css instead of the subcategory you suggested on main.css

And, that worked.

Thank you so much for your help.

:) it would have worked if I'd looked earlier and saw you were using style.css instead of main.css. But same results and looks good ;)
