Format problems on FR
me | 6-1-2011 | newfreep

Posted on 06/01/2011 2:55:05 PM PDT by newfreep

How does one change the formatting to get ONLY the news article TITLE listed?

My page has suddenly changed to include the first one or two paragraphs of the article - a format I prefer to eliminate.

Help...and thanks in advance!

Mine changes to the abbreviated format when I sign in. Don’t know why.

Check for the word “Brevity” near the top of the page.

Click on the link that says "HEADERS". It's near the top right of your page.

Try this. Where is says Brevity: « Headers » | Text

Click the headers selection. Just a thought. Maybe it will help

For the life of me I cannot locate “Brevity” or Headers”

What page are these creatures located?

Yeah but South40 brought a screen grab. That’s points for difficulty.

If you’re using Microsoft Internet Explorer, hit F3 and type the word “Brevity” which should cause it to be highlighted.

Ahhhhh, I found it and fixed it.

I have no idea how it changed by itself. Perhaps Pissant hacked into my account?

At the top of the page. The lavender colored bar. Look to the right. You should see it.

I also gave accurate direction. “Check for the word “Brevity” means nada and will you you nowhere.

Sometimes first-to-market wins even with a less-than-perfect solution.

But, I agree with Cyber Liberty. You win on points.

Must have been the “lavender” color - I always reject anything lavender.

LOL. Understandable. I’m not partial to the color myself.
