I am neither a master of HTML or CSS...I have looked at the code generated by Artisteer, and it is very heavy in CSS and div commands.

I'm glad they have a slick GUI for making themes, but they are almost impossible to modify without the GUI.

Thanks for your efforts...you could have just said "it's your theme, deal with it...", but you didn't.

Steve: don't know the answer to that.

cntrlwiz: would you be willing and able to make a small edit to an SP code file? Would be experimental and as yet untested so I am unsure whether it would break anything else... but would help in trying to resolve the widget issue.

Yes, I can do that.  Send me a PM with the details, and I'll get it done ASAP.

Easier for me to do it here...

Find the file /sp-startup/sp-load-forum.php

Move past all of the 'include_once' statement until you get to the comment line that reads:

# Set up Forum support WP Hooks

Immediately after that comment line add:

global $ISFORUM;
if($ISFORUM) {

And then at the bottom, after the add_action line add a closing brace.

As I said - you may have to undo this but I would appreciate knowing if this resolves the issue with the widget. What I do NOT know yet for sure, is if it has an adverse effect anywhere else. I hope to be looking into this deeper tonight.

I did the mod....and it appears to have fixed the issue!  I am leaving the fix in place for any further testing you need to do.
