I would like my forum to look exactly like this one with the same icons, etc.

Can you tell me if it's available, what it is and where to get it

Thanks,

Alec

have you checked the forum – options – styles panel??? All of the provided skins and icons are selectable there. The skin is smoke and the icon set is ash.

If you downloaded a minimal install and did not get the rest of the skins/icons, you can download them from our downloads page.

[Image Can Not Be Found] Home [Image Can Not Be Found] Forums [Image Can Not Be Found] Skins and Theme Problems [Image Can Not Be Found] This Theme

you know the bar beneath the search bar ie: with the navigation links:

does that come with the theme/icon sets or do I need to install something else.

Thanks for your advice

its the breadcrumb settings in the options… you really should take a look at all the options and components… lots of good stuff in there…

Thanks again Mr Papa, if I could trouble you for one final question:

I turned the breadcrumbs feature on and it works – great, but it shows the links going down rather than across (as on this site), how do you change that?

argh, a more problematic issue… Its even worse on other pages, you probably just havent noticed yet…

you have a plugin that is screwing things up… are you running an old version of contact form 7?

some plugin is converting \\n characters into <br /> characters… usually through some interaction with wpautop…

I would suggest disabling all plugins and seeing if it corrects itself, then enabling one by one until it breaks… then we can deal with the conflict…

also, a side note, since you are running ash icon set, you should turn off the text links next to labels that are text to prevent the odd looking duplication. you can do that on forum – options – styles…

ahh, that is an issue. The only plugins I think it could be is Wordpress Petition or MM Forms. The problem is that I am using both of these to store supporter information for a campaign we are running and to submit information to a local government agency. If I disable these plugins, I know they are not yours, but would you think it will clear all the signatures and stuff in the database behind or any of the configuration?

Not sure if you will be able to spot the culprit from a page the plugin is operational on, but here goes:

MM Forms: http://cpwf.co.uk/home/?page_id=3

Wordpress Petition: http://cpwf.co.uk/home/?page_id=29 (support us bit at the top)

Any advice would be much appreciated, sorry to take up so much of your time.
