Hey guys, first post by me here.


I am helping to set up the clan site, there are plenty of awesome mods and themes around here so kudos to the developers for this. ( vbulletin looks nicer than phpbb3 or IPB so we are happy we paid for a licence.


The first issue is, we would like to use the BF3 theme for the site. However we would prefer to keep it smaller rather than spanning the pages.

However as you can see the "Last Post" is out of alignment.
I used the document width setting to set the page to 1000px.

I have tried several options but I am unsure of what to use to fix this.




The second issue is that I have also installed the awesome lightweight theme for mobile phones.
The forums is configured to use the lightweight theme for mobiles, and users have told me it works on android and iphones. BUT... it wont work with WP7..

I have no idea how to fix this either.




Any help / tips would be appreciated.


Thanks.

Might be best to Ask the Maker of the theme He should have all the answers for you :)

For the first question, you'll need to find the CSS that controls the column widths and adjust them. I'm not really in to CSS but I looked at it a little and I think it's in the forumbits.css template (under CSS templates in the Style Manager "Edit Templates" page). If you use Firefox with the FireBug addon, you can right-click on the part of the page you're interested in and choose "Inspect Element", and that will help you figure out what CSS is used in styling that part.

Sorry, I don't know anything about mobile styles.

ETA: or do what was suggested above and contact the person who wrote the theme...

First of all your forum is align to the right.
Change the doc margin to: 0px auto 0px auto;

And add this to additonal css.

.forumbit_nopost .forumhead span.forumlastpost, .forumbit_post .forumhead span.forumlastpost {margin-left: -14px;}
