Hi Mr Papa,

was that simple :) I beated my head in all corners around...

I found it and not increased but decreased the percentage of "sp_ColumnStart('tagClass=spPostSection spRight&width=80%');" from 84% to 80% and all fits perfectly now.

Thanks a lot, now I can safety wait a new responsive theme, take your time ;)

I did tried all themes available, the problem was the same but stacked doesn't fits my users needs.

Have a good sunday and thanks again for answered so quickly, you rock!

Marco

I was just reading Marco's post - and I have a twenty twelve theme from WordPress. 

I know your Mobile SP theme will be fantastic when it comes out - but in the mean time what do you suggest an interim strategy? My site will have about 30% of the user accessing it from the road and it needs to look good on Smarphones (iphone / android Smartphones mainly).

I am not clever with the CSS as Marco - what do you suggest?

In my humble opinion I rather Simple Press work on making the SP forum work with standard based responsive themes (e.g. WP Twenty Twelve) rather than introduce yet another theme. [Or a few lines of documentation on how to do it would be really nice too).

set your mobile theme to be stacked...  that way it needs a bit less width...

but really, they will just have to move the screen around to see different parts of the forum until that truly mobile theme is ready...  and when done, the mobile theme will work with any wp theme - just may need to adjust colors...

Thanks................... It kind of works (until the user logs in). When the user is logged in the top ugly Wordpress Admin toolbar (full width) comes on top of the stacked site - making it look disproportional.

I found a toolbar hiding plugin that I am going to try.

 

P.S. Stacked mobile theme is OK - but it is long way from the look I want. I will be happy to be your Beta tester for your new mobile theme (when it is ready)!

weird... is the wp admin bar supposed to be responsive???

first thing I do on my sites is turn off that wp admin bar... ;)

let us know how you make out... great progress is being made on the mobile theme, but still a few months away, I think... will take some good testing...
