Q
How can I change the width of the select boxes on the Add a Transaction page?
Some of the text in the select boxes is too long to display - can I make those boxes larger?

All you need is a little CSS...and an admin-level account. ;)
Change All Select Boxes (Equal Widths):
- Go to Admin Stuff > Look & Feel.
- Scroll down to the Custom JS/CSS Code box.
- Add this CSS to the box, changing 175px to whatever size you want each box to be:
<style>
.seltd { width:175px; }
</style> - Click Save.
Now your select boxes will all be the same size! They'll move on to different rows - however many is necessary to display all of the boxes.
Change One (or more) Select Boxes:
If you'd just like to change the width of one or two of the boxes on the Record a Transaction screen, you can do that, too!
- Figure out which field you want to make larger/smaller.
Each field has a unique ID - metadata1, metadata2, etc. So all you need to know is the field - is it the 5th field? Then the ID you need is metadata5. - Go to Admin Stuff > Look & Feel.
- Scroll down to the Custom JS/CSS Code box.
- Add this CSS to the box, changing the metadata field to the appropriate field number and the width of 175px to whatever size you want that box to be:
<style>
#metadata5 { width:175px; }
</style> - Click Save.
