AH! Works great. Perfect. Thanks.

stagger-lee – thank you very much for the warning/advice. Actually, that makes perfect sense. I went back to the previous topic view (with no large icons). For other sites it might make more sense, so hopefully the topic created here might help someone.

I am going to stick with using forum icons in our main forum view. It adds a great look.

I got some great help from Robkk creating these earlier, but I’m having the same issue. The long forum descriptions are wrapping under the forum icon, as can be seen in the example below with the lock icon.

Any suggestion on how to style the forum description so it doesn’t wrap, but stays to the right of the forum icon?

Here’s a link to our test site:

Thanks for any suggestions.

Stagger Lee – thanks for that, although it’s way over me head.

When I got it in to functions.php, it does work partially (at certain screen widths). But at other screen widths, the text starts wrapping under the icon again.

I’ll keep messing with it, but I’m open to suggestions.

Integration is working great – whew!

Thank you robkk and lanhuong11022. I’m new to bbPress and appreciate the help getting started. The theme files are completely new to me, so it’s been fun trying to figure out everything.

I was able to get the avatar larger. I’m still hungup on getting the overflow figured out.

http://camaushop.net/ is a great start. It appears they have the avatar somehow wrapped in a span, and the span has the overflow assigned to it.

I’m not asking anyone to hold my hand, but if I was to attempt to add a span around those forum icons, any suggestions on what theme file I might start experimenting with?

Thanks for any suggestions.

Great – thank you very much. Works fine and looks great.

A couple quick questions:

1. Any suggestions on how to get the “Started by” text and username to display right under the topic title, to the right of the avatar, just like the topic title? Right now it is under the avatar.

2. Long topic tiles are now wrapping under the avatar. Any suggestion on how to style the second line of title so it doesn’t wrap, but stays indented as the first line of the topic?

I’m looking at the code and css and can’t figure it out. Thanks!

I realize there is already a smaller avatar showing for each topic, but I’m talking about a larger avatar icon to the left of each topic. Is there a setting or maybe a plugin to enable this feature?

[@andrew55 Participant 9 years, 9 months ago]

Robkk – thank you very much. Works perfect now.

[@andrew55 Participant 9 years, 9 months ago]

Thanks for the suggestion. I decided to install a separate version of WP and install forums in there – my original WordPress database got huge with bbPress.

I then imported phhBB into this site. Next I will connect this site to aMember, although I’m not sure how that will go. Wish me luck!

[@andrew55 Participant 9 years, 9 months ago]

Robin W – thank you. Now it makes sense why there is no styling only on that link.

I found the setting in your plugin to disable it. BTW, you plugin is awesome. bbpress wouldn’t work for us without it.

I have it on my list of plugins to donate to.

Thanks again.

I’m only talking about the link that scrolls the user down to the the “create topic” form, not the “create topic” form itself.

[@andrew55 Participant 9 years, 9 months ago]

Thanks for the suggestion.
