Support Forum
After a few days of working with SP 5, I am really liking 5.0 The only tweaks I would like to make to the Default theme are:
1. Add some room between the Forum Icon and Title/Description - Image Attached
2. Nuke the bullets to the left of most vertical menus. The are landing on the box border and aren't really needed. - Image Attached.
Note that this behavior is on IE, Firefox, and Chrome (all the browsers I had on my PC)
Thanks in advance for pointing me to the CSS that needs to be tweaked. I am not a great CSS CodeMonkey 🙂
the first one is probably because your width available for the forum is too small... there is padding there, but guessing your column width is too small... look in the spGroupView.php template file in the theme... look for the template tag sp_ForumIndexIcon() and the line above it... you likely need to increase the width in that column start (6% by default)... it assumes a reasonable width... if it gets to narrow on your wp theme, you need to increase...
as to the menu tabs in the profile, we are not putting those there... they must be leaking over from your wp theme... I could tell for sure if I had a link... we do have a reset.css where we try to stop leakage from the wp theme... perhaps we need to tighten that up a bit... but again, need a link (and in this case temp account sent to us via pm to investigate since guests cannot see the profile page)...

Yep when I went full screen the spacing worked out. I was hoping to keep a sidebar for navigation but the forum looking and working well is more inportant.
When I disabled all WP plugins the bullets were still there. When I switched from Studio Press's Genesis framework to the WP 2011 default theme the bullets went away. I will investigate this on the StudoPress side.
