Ok.

This is more than just a 10 second fix, me thinks.

Somehow there is a include which deploys the iframe. As stated above this is at DEV level you require assistance, so put in a support ticket

Caio

I can't as mine is not hosted with vanilla.

You might try changing this in the vanillaforums.css file to a smaller height maybe 40 px. but that is just a guess.

textarea,
textarea:focus {
    font-family: monospace;
    color: #000;
    height: 50px;

Caio

I found the fix, just can't find the files. lol

Caio

the height in the iframe should be 300 and there should be no predetermined css height; that is what cultofmac is doing.

The issue is if you set a HEIGHT to a sibling element, then the parent element needs to expand.

Perhaps have a play with this .. http://www.mattcutts.com/blog/iframe-height-scrollbar-example/

This will automatically adjust parent div height , when iframe height increases and decreases

where is the "two-like button" for times like these. and the "patience exhausted badge". If there were a badge it would be awarded countless times I'm sure.
A special badge "didn't work" that deducts points for a user would also be in order, when they neglect to tell you what they did and what didn't work and what the results were.

Haha, that kinda did grate on my otherwise placid nature

embed is loaded dynamically. As you already noted it auto expands. What you want is it to auto contract. This is a pro job, PM me if you are interested.

Haha, sorry I can't read minds and thought you could understand that didn't work meant it provided no changes.

read this links and the comments below it.

(firebug vs. code change modification)

Just as you can't read minds, nor can the person trying to help you, that is why "didn't work" provides no information on how you implemented the change and what happened.

Caio

Sorry, lost my temper. Anyways, I give up. Just going to wait until they update and fix this issue.

peregrine

out of curiousity - did you try changing the css for the textarea.

Caio

Well yes, but it failed. It didn't change the text box at all. And i changed rows from 6 to 4. But since it didn't work, i reset it.

Caio

Ok, now kind of off topic, but what is the best wysiwyg editor for vanilla?

peregrine

C'mon are you working with me I suggested changing the css in the file itself. If you mention firebug one more time or attempt to change firebug I am totally through.
