It's weird, when not signed in and no protection it shows up but distorted. I'm not getting it, i'm about ready to drop rockettheme because of things like this. Simple press is by far the best forum software hands down and i'm upset that the guys at rockettheme have no easy solution for this.

Weird, the page is blank but if you move the mouse over certain areas youll see the pop up menus or 'finger' icon as if it's being covered up

You have to bear in mind that I have no real idea how Gantry works so this is discovery for me as well! So I might be able to tell you where something is happening - but quite probably not why! And I will need to take this one step at a time. So let's start with why I see a completely blank blue page which apparently has SP hidden underneath it!
This is defined in the CSS in the file /rt_modulus_wp/css/template-gecko.css - and the rule is:
#rt-body-bg.rt-hidden, #rt-footer-bg.rt-hidden {
opacity: 0;
}'0' means transparent and as far as I can see that is being applied to the forum area making it, in effect, disappear. I have NO idea why!
I would point out that when I use the script console on your site I am seeing a lot of javascript errors and warnings form what appear to be Gantry specific scripts. The framework has also installed the 'mootools' javascript library and that can be quite difficult to sometimes get working properly with WordPress (not just SP) although it is not impossible

I've tried changing the opacity to different numbers and still a no go. I've posted over on the rocket theme forums about this, but still no reply. I'm going to give it to the end of the day and dump rockettheme theme's from here on out, waste of $50. Simple press is by far the best forum software for wordpress and they being a premium template vendor should recognize this and have provided some type of solid work around or plugin not just that hacked up tutorial from a few weeks ago.

I have to say I sympathise with you. It worked for me by the way by just removing the opacity rule totally.
I am something of a dinosaur. I liked it when a theme was a theme and if you wanted to add bells and whistles you used plugins. Now so many themes are just plain over-complicated and awkward to work with.

Hey Swordfish, did you create the whole custom page template to get it going at first? Can you write out the exact code you used to get it to display. Ugh you are right wish a theme was a theme and that is all.

I didn't change anything. I just used the Firebug console (Firefox extension) to interrogate the page to see what CSS was being applied and Firebug allows you to modify elements and immediately see the effect. Great diagnostic tool.
