Hello 🙂
I have a little issue, see in the screenshot how the icon and the description overlap?

The icon is 40x40 px... is it too big? Or what else can I do to solve this which will not involve to edit the css? Thanks!

It depends what the cause is. If it is because you are displaying the forum in a narrow column then it probably needs the column widths adjusting. This looks to me like the Unified theme is that right? I think (but wont promise) that Reboot might size the columns a little more dynamically than Unified so it might need to be an adjustment. 

Sometimes though, it is an artefact of your WP theme having a strong influence on images. I would need to see your site and a representative page to tell as I would need to look using the web console tools.

If it needs an adjustment  to be made can you confirm what theme this is for sure  and also what ioverlay you are using...?

Hello YS 🙂

I am using Unified both on desktop and mobile (and tablet too). The theme of the blog is Keith from Bluchic and to be honest I was thinking to change it anyway, to use some theme which will have a wider view. I use Keith simply because is fully supported by my host, so if there is any problem they will help right away 😀 And on the mobile I am not using Keith, which is responsive, but a mobile theme developed by my host. I have not checked this overlapping business on the mobile, I just saw it on the desktop and wrote this post. I will analyse better and see what I can do about it.
In any case, as the subject came up, I have already read n other topics here that there isn't a list of the best themes to be used with SP still... would you be so kind to suggest any? So I can start trying... I need something really simple, on the desktop I only really need it for the forum, anything else I will redirect to my blog... Thanks a lot!

The problem is that we so rarely hear about the themes that work really well. Only those that do not!
About all I can tell you is that we use a theme built on the Genesis framework here on SP.

And Genesis is not free, not even to try... I will search a bit then, thanks 🙂

I love the Reboot theme and it shows the forum very nicely, exactly how I like it. Only problem, major for me: not translated in Italian! I will try to translate but I think it will take quite a bit of time as it would be nice to make the translation match the same words used for the translation in Unified. And I am not sure of all the correct jargon, need to print all of Unified out first.  I will look into it, but maybe you know or have already a list in a document which I could have? Thanks!
