The first thing I’d suggest is installing bbPress if you want to continue this discussion here on bbpress.org.
I have been able to link in my past comments but now the box that lists the forums and topics does not fit properly and looks awful and the colors look bad. I went and the bbpress website for a description and how to change this and although I am college educated with a masters degree these explanations are incredibly complicated Is there an easier way to make these changes hopefully without css
I temporary disabled bbpress because it looks so bad.
Thank you for your help
All I can suggest is you look to find someone who can help you out with some custom CSS and the like, we try to make bbPress work ‘out of the box’ with the thousands of themes available and if you need it to look different you need to makes these changes yourself or find someone who can or pay someone.
We can give a few tips when we can see the forums but as we can’t even see them we can’t offer even anything basic for you sorry.
Hello,
I am leaving the forum in for a while even though it looks bad so you can take a look. If you scroll down the page http://tenniselbowracquet.com/tennis-racquets/ you will see the forum area and how the information does not fit. Do you have any suggestions?
Thank you!
A quick look the following tweaks your background colors to match (colors are not exact though) and they should be tweaked to match your themes color scheme etc.
#bbpress-forums div.odd,
#bbpress-forums ul.odd,
#bbpress-forums div.even,
#bbpress-forums ul.even,
#bbpress-forums li.bbp-header {
background-color: #113450;
}
#bbpress-forums div.bbp-forum-header,
#bbpress-forums div.bbp-topic-header,
#bbpress-forums div.bbp-reply-header {
background-color: #112350;
}
Thank you very much I was able to implement that important change. But another problem that is even more important is in the forum box where forum,topic, posts and freshness columns are not fitting properly in the margin.
Do you know how I can go about fixing or improving this?
Thank you!
