There is a problem with a girl posting on the board I admin with her font absolutely huge (between 4 and 7 usually) and even though we have repeatedly warned
her to stop, she still does it with a lot of her posts. Is there a way to remove the privilege of changing her font size or to remove it completely from the
board?

There is no way to control what font someone uses. You can hide her posts, but that's probably not what you want to do. Maybe you could ask her why she is
using this font size. If it is because she had bad eyesight, you could ask what browser she uses and give her instructions on how to adjust the fonts in that
particular browser, that way she wouldn't have to use such large font.

Unfortunately she seems to just like using it .. and very randomly. Not all of her posts have the large size, so I don't think it's a problem with her
own eyesight. Thank you for the reply, though.

Hi there,
Can you give me a link to one of her over sized posts? I had another person with an issue like this and I was able to create some CSS which forcefully set the font size. But it depends on how they are posting and what html code is being used within the post as to wether you could do something similiar. Zoe |

Zoe, it'll be interesting to see what you can come up with. The only solutions I can think of would be at the browser level (Stylish or something similar).
That's fine if you want to prevent something from annoying only yourself, but it's certainly not the way to go for a crowd.
I wonder why the post editor was designed with the deprecated font element and size attribute to begin with. Given that just about everything else uses modern code, this just seems so un-Yukulike.
My suggestion for the long term would be for the developers to deploy classes in lieu of the antiquated font element. <span class="fontone">, <span class="fonttwo">, etc., could be controlled by some simple lines in Yuku's default CSS and overridden by board owners if desired.

Casey,
Basically my plan is to use user classes to target specific users and reset the font by adding this to the advanced css for example: .zoetko .scrolling font {font-size:14px} Zoe |
