Show recent posts on front page – Options > Forum Settings. No scrolling I am afraid

yes it’s look ok,

but I would like to know where to change the code to compact each recent post line.

the height of each recent post line seems to me soo big compared to the forum list.

do you see what I mean?

thanks

thats because your theme is mucking with tables in its css…  in this case adding extra margin at line 406…

you need to override that for the forum… we try to do this auto in 4.2, but you are running a much older (has security hole too, btw) version 4.1.0

you can add something like this to the sf-framework.css file

#sforum table, #sforum tr, #sforum td{
    border: 0;
    margin: 0;
    padding: 0;
}

but I would consider upgrading if for no other reason than getting the security fix…

Hello Mister Papa,

I know I need to upgrade. but I’m waiting for 4.2 release (Do you have an idea of the release date?), because I already modified some part of the code to change the display, but I dont remmember where…

 

Mr Papa I dont have sf-framework.css file.

Ow!! o/ I didn’t see that the 4.2.0 was release ! I will make some backup and update everything.

I will keep you tuned.

yes released and you have to have a sf-framework.css file… its in simple-forum/styles/skins

but you could just put it in your theme style.css file too…

Hi,

 

About scrolling, I found a way but still struggling to get it to work with simplepress topics RSS.

With WordPress Feed it is working perfect, have no idea why it is not working with Simplepress Feed RSS

Can you please check it out, if you have time off course?

 

The WP Plugin is called:

Flash Feed Scroll Reader

 

best regrads,

I don’t understand what it is you are trying to accomplish…?

I am trying to show the RSS Feed of the forum in other parts of WordPress at the top of the page, looks very nice and gives attention to the forum.
