Hi SimplePress team

Could you please give me a hand with these problem?

 

1. The Actions menu on the mobile phone isn't opening in view and when opened it is really small displaying at the bottom of viewport. I am trying to show the usual desktop version of Actions menu instead of the mobile Acions menu. Is this possible? I do not have much clutter on the top banner of the forum, but only the 'Login' and 'Register' buttons. I would like to show these buttons for desktop and mobile viewers. Could you please point me in the right direction?

2. I have made some change to some css classes and now while I am happy with how desktop is looking, mobile styling has been thrown off. Could you please help me with how I could target mobile phone styling for the following changes which are made in css

#spMainContainer .spTopicPostSection .spPostSection {
   background: lavender none repeat scroll 0 0;
   width: 84%;
   
}

#spMainContainer .spTopicPostSection {
  border: 2px solid grey;
    
}

#spMainContainer .spFirstPost.spTopicPostSection .spPostUserName {
    color: white;
    position: relative;
    top: 30px;
}

#spMainContainer .spTopicPostSection .spPostUserName {
    position: relative;
    top: 30px;
}

 

Thank you for your help

The mobile 'Actions' menu should be quite easy to see and read from so if it is not then I would surmise that perhaps your WordPress theme is having a larger then usual influence on the display. It is also not so easy to abandon the slide-up panel. The main problem with reverting to popups is that some of the items - like the forum tools menus, can not happily fit onto many mobile displays so this panel was the best alternative we could design - having tried a variety of alternatives.

If there is a display problem with it then perhaps we should really start by trying to resolve that... If you can give me a link to your forum page I am happy to load it up and see what it looks like.

That is really the same approach needed for the CSS changes you are making. It makes no sense for me to duplicate your CSS changes locally to try and see what is wrong as your WordPress theme can have such an influence on the display. Much easier to see it and then use the browser console tools to adjust and see the effects.
