Hi, everyone. I have just installed TubePress and am very happy with it, except for one little problem:

There isn't enough space between the thumbnails to display the text. The bottom half of the title is cut off. I can't find any settings that seem to change this.

here's my page: http://www.capitalre...rg/?page_id=409

Any advice is much appreciated!

Add this CSS to your theme or elsewhere on your site.

.tubepress_thumb {
   height: 220px;
}

You can change the 220 to whatever height looks good to you.

Thanks! Is the text under the video formatted with a CSS class as well?

All the the text info:

dl.tubepress_meta_group {

}

The title:

dd.tubepress_meta_title, dd.tubepress_meta_title a, dd.tubepress_meta_title a:hover {

}

Use Firebug and you can sort this out yourself!

Thanks for the firebug tip. I was able to use it to sort out a few things.

Adding the text you suggested to my style.css file had no effect. I did it both by using the Wordpress editor to make the changes, and by downloading the file and making the changes with a text editor.

However, using Firebug to edit style.css I can see several tubepress items in style.css. So how are they getting there, and where can I edit them?

To override your theme's CSS or TubePress CSS, try using http://wordpress.org...ustom-user-css/

You can just put stuff like:

.tubepress_thumb {
   height: 220px;
}

into Custom User CSS plugin and it will handle the override.

wp-content/plugins/tubepress_pro_2_1_2/ui/themes/default/style.css

or substitute the name of your tubepress theme for the word "default" in the path shown above.
