You have a <code>float: left;</code> on #front-page #discussions. This makes hottags float to the right and be invisible (because of the overflow:hidden on container). If you delete that float: left, the hottags will appear on the bottom. This also fixes the little bottom border artifact you see to the right of the only sticky post. </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/working-on-new-theme-please-critique#post-17056 Thu, 03 Jul 2008 20:38:17 +0000 refueled 17056@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>I normally agree. This will probably be my only left-aligned bbPress theme. :)</p> <p>Thanks again for your feedback. </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/working-on-new-theme-please-critique#post-17055 Thu, 03 Jul 2008 16:01:40 +0000 Null 17055@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>There is nothing "wrong"with left aligned, but it reads better/nicer. Especially when having a wide screen monitor. Matter of taste :) </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/working-on-new-theme-please-critique#post-17054 Thu, 03 Jul 2008 15:11:57 +0000 refueled 17054@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>Hey Null,</p> <p>Thanks for your reply.</p> <p>Just curious, what's wrong with it being left aligned? At this point I probably wont change that because it's based on one of my original CSS templates.</p> <p>Thanks for the color suggestion. I will make those adjustments.</p> <p>More reviews are welcome. :) </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/working-on-new-theme-please-critique#post-17052 Thu, 03 Jul 2008 08:30:10 +0000 Null 17052@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>Well I would center the whole forum instead (its now on the left part of the screen) and I would darken up some things (like the zebra stiping and mouse over). Also I would make all hyperlinks that dark green like you have for the forum title (upper left: your ministry.org).</p> <p>Also remember that not all screens are the same. Some people have it too bright, others too dark, so don't use too light colors :)</p> <p>Just my 2 cents, looks great </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/working-on-new-theme-please-critique#post-17050 Thu, 03 Jul 2008 05:44:47 +0000 refueled 17050@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>I am working on a new bbPress theme (dubbed "Ministry") and would like your opinion. Especially on the color side of things: is it too light? etc. Anyway, here is the <a href="http://refueled.biz/ministry/forum/">link</a>.</p> <p>Once done, I will be releasing this theme.

I apologies if there is other discussion about this issue (I did a search and didn't find an answer).</p> <p>I'm integrating my Wordpress blog with BBpress forums and I would like to have the Latest Discussions list in the sidebar for all pages. I already put it in the blog with a WP pluging, now I'm trying to put it in the forum.</p> <p>I tried copy and paste the code from front-page.php to sidebar.php. It works fine when I'm in the front page, but disappears when I enter in a topic or other page. </p> <p>So, could you give me a clue, a code or a pluging I can use to have this done???</p> <p>Any help is appreciate.

Thus, the Forums h2 and the Forums table appear flush with the left border (instead of being pushed to the right by a hottags div, as is the first h2 and table).</p> <p>You could wrap the two tables (and their h2s) in the main area inside a parent div to prevent this. </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/simple-ie-and-firefox-problem#post-16837 Fri, 20 Jun 2008 17:19:07 +0000 sherrynes 16837@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>Hi, thanks for your reply.</p> <p>I want the log-in form to be up in the header area where it was originally.
