1. you have two css declarations that are affecting
#main-col .elements-box ul li, #main-col .post ul li {
list-style: inside none square;
padding-left: 0;
}
and
#main-col .elements-box ul ul li, #main-col .post ul ul li {
list-style: inside none circle;
}
if you are not interested in having circles or squares anywhere on your site out this in your css.
#main-col .elements-box ul li, #main-col .post ul li {
list-style: none !important ;
}
#main-col .elements-box ul ul li, #main-col .post ul ul li {
list-style: none !important ;
}
2. whilst some styling can be done, it would take an change to a template to achieve what you want for search. If you are familiar with moving files using FTP and editing files on your PC, come back and I’ll help further
3. Can’t see that as it only shows to those logged in.
@Robin W — Thank you for sending me the CCS code. It worked. Yes, I know how to move files by FTP to edit on a PC. You’re help would be greatly appreciated.
ok, untested but try
wp-content/plugins/bbpress\templates\default\bbpress\form-search.php
copy to your PC and
line 17
<input tabindex="<?php bbp_tab_index(); ?>" class="button" type="submit" id="bbp_search_submit" value="<?php esc_attr_e( 'Search', 'bbpress' ); ?>" />
change to
<input tabindex="<?php bbp_tab_index(); ?>" class="button" type="submit" id="search_submit" value" />
save this file to
ie wp-content/themes/%your-theme-name%/bbpress/form-search.php
where %your-theme-name% is the name of your theme
