Hey Ivan,

Are you talking about displaying recent posts in a widget similar to how we have them in our footer here?

If you answer yes to Ike’s question, you will need out template tags plugin (https://simple-press.com/downloads/template-tags-and-widgets-plugin/)

Yes,

I would like you to view the latest posts in a widget in the sidebar on the my home-page of wordpress.
Before installing simple-press I had tried bbPress and the theme Enfold there was a widget that displayed the latest forum posts

Thanks for your support

No problem, you can achieve this using the Template Tags and Widgets plugin. The included widget you are looking to use is the ‘Recent Posts’ widget which is fully customisable and as with all plugins all the information you will need is provided in the Codex, but of course feel free to ask if you need any help setting it up.

Hope that helps!

I ask another aid
when I write in a forum post, there is an option to increase the font size?
I can color, underline, highlight, could not find the size

there is the option paragraph,
Is this?
or is there something else

last question then I will write in the correct topic when I have to customize

No problem happy to help!

Depending on what editor you’re using. If you have our TinyMCE plugin installed, it works the same as the WordPress editor so you can click the ‘Paragraph’ dropdown and select a different heading size.

And yes, we use a custom child theme of Reboot here. Reboot does come with an orange overlay but it is slightly different to this one.
