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.

Basically, I want the left sidebar currently on the default bbPress on the right, with the content on the left. Also, currently on the default bbPress theme, the sidebar disappears when you click a topic or forum. I want the sidebar to always be present.
