    Hi

    I am really srtuggling with styling the buttons for “Create new Topic”, “Subscribe/Unsubscribe” and “Mark all topics as read”

    I seem to have three different styles for the three buttons and I can’t get the buttons to align horizontally either. (see link)

    Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

    Thank you. I have created your account and you should have the login details.

    @ibnat – quick update on this. I have received your emails. I just have very limited free time for coding these days. To address some of your questtions and to fill you in on the overall time-frame:

    Donations can go straight to @robin-w. Robin has been working on this plugin for like a decade and deserves every bit of donations. Thank you for the offer though!

    This particular request to add ALL buttons in 2 rows, styled the same is going to be quite involved.

    1.) Favorites/Subscribe buttons are currently using the default bbPress location – to the right of the breadcrumbs.

    2.) ALL other buttons are using the 1 or 2 row format. Making any changes to that (like including Favorites/Subscribe buttons) would require a complete code write for how buttons, button rows, and button order are currently handled.

    It is do-able, and I can see others utilizing it to customize the button layout….but it will be very time consuming to accomplish, and will have to wait until after my move. Unless @robin-w wants to pick this one up (also limited time these days), it will probably have to wait until October or November.

    With that said, is there something quick/simple that could help hold you over until then?

    Simple CSS code snippets could be done for simple styling changes, but completely re-writing the code for layout restructuring is a bit much for the time being.

    Hi and thanks!

    For now I have got over this by removing the button for “favourites” in the bbpress forum settings and removing the “add link for new topic” in the bbp stylepack forum display tab,

    Then, in the bbp stylepack forum buttons tab I have added a “new post” button and styled the color of the button.

    This makes the new topic and subscribe/unsubscribe buttons look the same (as the button stlye colour I set as above also styled the subscribe/unsubscribe button) .

    On a desktop they are side by side and on a mobile one underneath each other on the left which looks fine but leaves a bit of wasted white space at the right hand side of the mobile.

    Once again thanks for your help with this!
