I’m sure I’m missing something obvious but I can’t seem to find the CSS that relates to the following problem – all my forum pages, and topic discussions appear to be shorter than the width of the table.

I’m using a theme called Oxygen and the normal theme for bbpress.

Here are some screenshots to help explain more clearly (if I’m allowed to post links).

I realise it might be the theme and not bbpress but was hoping someone had an idea of whether this was handled in bbpress’ css.

Without the URL I can’t really say. I can’t inspect the CSS from a screenshot.

Hi Jaredatch,

Sorry, i was hoping to do it without removing maintenance mode but I guess it’s not practical.

I have removed it and the url is http://www.actionvolunteer.com/forums/.

Any help is much appreciated!

You need to use Firebug or Chrome inspector to check out the CSS.

I’ve looked at things and it’s all simple conflicts that are happening due to the CSS that’s in place with you theme.

For example .hentry is being floated left which is screwing up the forum index.

You will want to put some tweaks in place (in your theme’s style.css). For example:

.bbp-forums .hentry {

float:none;

}

Thanks jaredatch.

I think I’ll create a child theme and work out the conflicts from there.

Thanks for pointing me in the right direction.

I am having the same issue with Oxygen. You can see it here:

Tried the ‘.bbp-forums .hentry . . . ‘ as suggested above, tried playing with a variety of table settings, with no result. I’ve looked in Safari Web Inspector which suggests it could be in bbpress.css, tried playing around with bbpress.css as a result, also with no joy. Any help would be appreciated.
