D7.0.5 - Increasing the News & Articles Forms Size

I am using D7.0.5. The Form content for the News & Articles are very small. It is very hard to edit the content by scrolling up and down the Form.  Is there a way to make the News content & Articles bigger - maybe by adding 40 Rows on these Forms. Could someone point me where in the code that can be changed please..

Here is a screentshot of what I am talking about:   http://www.moroccoit.com/dev/ContentForm.jpg


Also, I need to give access to my editor for him to be able Add News, but I couldn't see how to that without giving him my Admin access. I'd rather have him add news using his ID instead. Any idea?

I'd appreciate any input you can provide. Thank you.

If you use Firebug (or whatever developer tools are built into your browser of choice), you should be able to figure out where to edit the content box to increase it's height/width. You need to have administrator privileges to access any part of the administration panel. You can't make a compromise; it's either you give the user complete access, or none at all.

Hello open the  templates/base/css/forms_adv.css

find these style lines:

.form_advanced_table textarea {
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
}

 

and replace with :

.form_advanced_table textarea {
margin: 0;
height:200px;
padding: 0;
}
PS: If possible do not write me personally, please try to ask on the forum first

Do you guys have an idea on how to add an image to a news post?

Sometimes communicating your problem and putting it out there is enough to solve it
