problem with "last post" header in forum - where's the code?
 

I've implemented a custom style that I really like but it's a bit incomplete and has a few quirks to work out. Apparently something was modified with the way the last post header (for lack of a better term) is rendered. It's fine in the default template. This is on the forum home where it displays both the last post done overall and the last post for the individual forums. The default template has a background that spans the entire width of the forums shown in blue as the background for the last post. The new style has black for the background but it's twice as tall as it should be, has words wrapping and it very short. I need to know where the functionality that renders the background is stored so I can compare the default and customized styles to fix it. Any help finding this portion of the code would be greatly appreciated!

The "last post header" should be in the "forumhome_forumbit_level1_nopost" template. It looks like there's a problem with the classes "forumtitle" and "forumlastpost" or possibly with the css for <h2>

Thanks for the quick reply. All of the forumhome_forumbit templates under the forum home templates are the same code as stock as is the forumhome_lastpostby. I'm using a freeware program called File Compare Tool from "S&G soft." Works great to find differences but there aren't any in those templates at least :( I'll keep trudging through it.

We can wrap up this thread. The style I was using is for an older version and others see the same issues with newer releases of vB. Since I'm just getting my site off the ground I've decided to abandon fixing the corrupted style. I just went through the stylevars of that style and edited my default style to match and I'm 80% of the way home already.
