    How about a link to your forum so we can see why that might be happening? Looks like a list tag did not get closed, so the next list starts indented maybe.

    okay, here it is

    Check your markup here:
    http://validator.w3.org/check?verbose=1&uri=http%3A%2F%2Fmonstrs.de%2Fstufo%2F

    You have some invalidly nested tags, for starters.

    okay, tried to remove the errors but this didn't change anything

    even when i use the standard theme, the list is screwed up

    E: Okay, even with a completely new and fresh instalation it doesn't work. Seems like a bug >.<

    I can only see an install with a bunch of markup errors there now. Did you install it fresh in another location?

    Also, what is the expected layout of the forums? I can't see what the hierarchy should be and can't read German.

    Should some of these be nested?

    What version bbPress are you using?

    • Posted 4 years ago #

    I found one problem in the CSS. On line 339 of style.css change this:

    padding-left: 2.5ex;

    to this:

    padding-left: 2.5em;

    That will take care of indenting the nested lists. Not sure if that is your problem or not, but it's something.

    Also, for creating your own theme, you might want the copy the files over to a theme folder under "my-templates". Then you can switch back to stock if there is a problem, and your theme files will not be overwritten by any upgrades.

    I filed this bug: http://trac.bbpress.org/ticket/740

    I guess ex is a valid CSS unit of measure, but I think it's for height and was not intended here. Maybe a typo combination of em and px. Maybe...

    Hej guys
    I removed the parent category, that's why you dont see anything. using the newest version (0.8.2.1 ). you can try it yourself, just rebuild the structure in the images above and you will see it doesn't work...

    I noticed that the category in the admin menu jumps back when i refresh the page.

    thats what it should look like:
    http://img406.imageshack.us/img406/4117/richtigrv0.jpg
    and that is what it looks like after refreshing:
    http://www.monstrs.de/wp-content/uploads/2007/09/falsch.jpg

    changing ex to em didn't change anything :/

    thanks for your help so far, all!

    e: here is a link to a completely new installation. same problem.
