Im pretty much a newbie at tis but hoping to pick it up pretty quickly. Im just wondering if there is any way to widen my forum so it fills out more of the page. At the moment I appear to be using a single colum theme and not using any widgets.
I just feel I can make the forum more readable by using up more of the space on screen and just wondering if this is possible and if it is then how I go about doing it.
Any help would be great thank you.
most wp themes today come with multiple page templates… it will be the wp theme limiting the space for page content, not the forum…
if you edit the wp page the forum is on, there will be a page template select box… see if you can select a full width page template…
if not, we can point you to wp help for creating a custom page template that would be… or with a link to your site, we might be able to give you css to make it happen too…
Unfortunately it appears the theme I am using does not have a full page version. The site I have made is only set up so I can use the Simple Press plug in for the forum so I guess it does not really matter what theme I use so creating a custom theme from wp should work shouldn’t it?
If you could point me in the right direction I would very much appreciate it or I can just post the link to the site if that would be easier.
no custom page templates? must be old theme…

There is about 10 different templates but not a single one does it in full width, typical my luck.
Thanks for the link will take a look later on.
