Posting Problems

Hi

Okay so I have a lot of problems with the theme (Which I'm 90% sure caused this). So:

#1 The Topic Color Title Change isn't appearing:



It was set properly as so...



That is what the posting body looks like as of now. I also have the problem that Topic Title and Topic Description are so far to the right, please align it properly and I managed to find <dd> problem with Reason for editing so it was in the templates. Unfortunately, I cannot find the one for Topic Title and Topic Description.

P.S. Post Title is too off to the right as well, please help with that. 

2. My bullets are messed up:



They're gone  . Please help in fix.

Pizza Boi

Try resyning your forum.

The option is at the bottom of the page.

Hi

It does not work.

Hello,
Do you have any css installed on your forum that affects the editor? If so may you post it here?

Hey @Pizza Boi,

For the topic title colors, the necessary markup was missing. Replace your posting_body template with the one below.
Display > Templates > Post and Private Messages

Code:

As for the bullets not appearing, find and remove the following rule from the stylesheet.
Display > Colors > CSS stylesheet

Code:

ol, ul {
list-style: none;
}

Hi

They worked but is there any other error I should be informed from the imported template I have?

Regards,
Pizza Boi

There's only one way to find out, by using it.

If you do notice anything else that's not working, or is messed up, feel free to let us know.

Hi

I managed to fix the problems on my forum regarding posting. You can close this now and thanks for the help ^_^ ~


New problem, the buttons aren't aligned like so:



Please help

Hi

It's fixed. I just edited with a bit of CSS and changed "display" settings.
