Interesting that some of the larger forums like 9rules notes and forum software (e.g., Vanilla) display the profile on top of the post. I'll probably stick with the left side approach. </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/your-opinion-profile-above-or-to-left-of-post#post-13285 Mon, 21 Jan 2008 21:09:09 +0000 finalwebsites 13285@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>yeah the profile belongs to the left like in other forums (it's not MS office 2007) ;) </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/your-opinion-profile-above-or-to-left-of-post#post-13279 Mon, 21 Jan 2008 18:16:06 +0000 fel64 13279@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>I'd certainly not have anything other than the username in the main text column; anything else, be it avatar, signature, status, rep, whatever, just gets in the way. As long as the username is sufficiently noticeable in the sidebar (or alternatively if you're using avatars) posts remain very recognisable without breaking the flow. </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/your-opinion-profile-above-or-to-left-of-post#post-13277 Mon, 21 Jan 2008 15:56:35 +0000 chrishajer 13277@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>Make it wider if you want sidebars on both sides. This layout is pretty narrow and works down below 800x600 resolutions (and on mobile devices I hear) but most web browsers are using 1024x768 and above (use <a href="http://www.google.com/analytics/">Google Analytics</a> to see what <strong>your</strong> users are browsing with). You have room to add sidebars on both sides, if you want.</p> <p>I prefer the profile links on the left, BTW. </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/your-opinion-profile-above-or-to-left-of-post#post-13274 Mon, 21 Jan 2008 14:38:43 +0000 trex33 13274@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>What is your opinion on this layout issue? Do you think member profile should be placed above each post or to left of post?</p> <p>IMO main advantage of placing profile to left of post is readability. This forum is good example of that. The member profile (and avatar) does not break up the flow of the discussion. </p> <p>On the other hand, the "left side" approach seems to limit your layout options. For example, if you want add a right hand column for hot tags, ads, etc., you start running out of width room. </p> <p>What do you think? </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/layout-problem-missing-closing-div-tag#post-3653 Fri, 26 Jan 2007 11:02:34 +0000 travel-junkie 3653@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>alright, thanks to all of you. figuered it out eventually. that extra <code>&lt;/div&gt;</code> on the add new page was the closing div from <code>&lt;div id=&quot;discussions&quot;&gt;</code>, which is only shown on the frontpage. so i wrapped it like this:<br /> <code>&lt;?php if ( $forums ) : ?&gt;<br /> &lt;/div&gt; <br /> &lt;?php endif; ?&gt;</code><br /> and it solved the problem. </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/layout-problem-missing-closing-div-tag#post-3619 Thu, 25 Jan 2007 00:58:40 +0000 chrishajer 3619@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>Could it be related to the extra closing <code>&lt;/li&gt;</code> around line 181 in the rendered source of the front page?

So, what is different between the front page and the "add new" page? That's where you'll find your problem I think. Look at the modifications you made and find out what is different between the two pages (front page and add new page.)</p> <p>It definitely does not belong there and is not needed on the "add new" page and it fixes the layout issue there. I did not try removing it from the front page.</p> <p>Also, you can validate the xhtml which will point to some problems too.
