How to change font size of Author ?

Hello Weahason,

I assume you're talking about the author's name as displayed on a published article. The best way to increase the size of the Author's name is to change the templates/article/article.tpl template; there's a line in it as follows:

Code: Select all

<div><i>{$article->getAuthorString()|escape}</i></div>

Use HTML or CSS to increase the size of the Author's name here.

Hello Weahason,

For OJS 1.x, you'll need to change the viewarticle.php file. The line that displays the author's names looks like:

Code: Select all

echo $chFirstName." ".$chMiddleInitial." ".$chSurname;

You can change it to something like:

Code: Select all

echo '<font size="+1">' . $chFirstName." ".$chMiddleInitial." ".$chSurname . '</font>';

Dear asmecher and all

I changed to this code.

Code: Select all

<?php      
// Get the author(s)
$authorquery = $db->query("SELECT chFirstName, chMiddleInitial, chSurname, chAffiliation, chBiography FROM tblmetaauthors WHERE fkArticleID = '$id' ORDER BY nRank") or die($query);
   $authornum = $db->num_rows($authorquery);
   for ($i=0; $i<$authornum; $i++) {
     $row = $db->assoc_array($authorquery, $i);
     extract($row);
     $y = $i + 1;
    echo '<font size="+1">' . $chFirstName." ".$chMiddleInitial." ".$chSurname . '</font>';
     if(!empty($chAffiliation)) { echo ", <i>".$chAffiliation."</i>"; }
     echo "<br />";
   }
?>

Hello Weahason,

What page are you trying to change the font size on? Find out which PHP script you're using (it should be visible in the URL), look for a similar line of code in it to display the author's names, and enclose it in a <font size="...">(name inserted here)</font> tag.
