Hey guys,

I’m having an issue with the forums that I need to resolve as soon as possible.

Take a look at – http://codelessme.com/weightlossrebels/forum/
I have created this page using two columns as this is how I want everything to lay out and be styled. HOWEVER, because I have chosen to use the shortcode for bbpress, once a user clicks a topic, they are taken to the forum created pages, which have a sidebar and white background. The reason for the white background instead of the background image applied universally is because when I apply the background universally, no color sections apply a new color or background image. So if I create a color section with a background color of orange for example, the orange is still not applied, it simply shows the default main color image pattern.

I need to format the forums inner pages to look just like what I have linked above.

Can you take a look at things and tell me why a background pattern applied to the “Main” section of styles is overwritting any page specific color sections created? This is the first step to figuring this out.

Thanks.

It looks like I am having the same problem with blog posts:

http://codelessme.com/weightlossrebels/2014/01/30/wealth-accumulation-material-posessions-wtf/

The post is not filling the entire content area.

How did kriesi set his forum width?
If you take a look at mine – http://codelessme.com/weightlossrebels/forums/ it is more narrow. I need it to be the width that Kriesi has his.

Additionally, on kriesi’s forum, it appears the avia user widget in the sidebar is something that should be part of enfold, but it isn’t. How do we add that functionality?

Hey!

1) I think it’s easier to solve the issue by setting a background for the entire page.

The reason for the white background instead of the background image applied universally is because when I apply the background universally, no color sections apply a new color or background image.

Please apply the background universally and post a link to a color section which doesn’t work. I’ll investigate the css code and check why the color section doesn’t work.

2) Kriesi uses the “large responsive” layout (with 1210px width). You can configure it on the theme option page ( Enfold > General Settings). If you want to stretch the forum content area to 100% insert this code into the quick css field:

#top .forum-archive .entry-content {
width: 100%;
margin-left: 0;
}

3) I’m not sure if Kriesi uses a custom widget or a standard bbpress widget for the login area. I’ll tag this thread for him and ask him to comment on it.

Cheers!

Hey!
That widget is part of the verification plugin I am using for themeforest purchase codes, so nothing that would really make sense within the enfold core files :)

The BBpress login widget should work just as fine ;)
Best regards,
Kriesi

Kriesi,

What I like about it is the ability to edit profile/logout, etc. Do you know any other plugins that have been used and work well with enfold for this purpose?

Cheers,
David

[Kriesi]

No unfortunately not, sorry. Can’t really say which of the dozens of login widgets out there does the best job :/

Hey Dude –

Still having an issue with the width of the forum/blog post content. It isn’t displaying full width, even after applying the code above.

Also – posted the image url to view the color section screenshot settings in another thread specifically for this issue. https://kriesi.at/support/topic/enfold-background-color-gone/

[zerozendesign]

Also Dude, it isn’t just for the forum, the blog posts are not full width either.

Thanks!

[zerozendesign]

Dude:

Just got this worked out. For full width blog post and forum content:

#top .entry-content {
    margin-left: 0px!important;
    width: 100%!important;
}
