How to Make Forum Replies Indent

posts: 175 Canada

I have a forum and the replies (and replies to replies) to posts don't indent, they just remain the full width, same as the first post.

Is there a switch for this?

Thankx!

If you view the forum as threaded replies will appear indented

Where's this setting? I have the Forum General Settings

Default style: Threaded.
Manage thread defaults per-forum is OFF

That's the correct setting... Maybe something in your theme is overriding it? Notice how the replies are indented here.

Thank you.

It was my brain that was indented.

The first reply doesn't indent of course. Only replies to replies. smile

While we're in on Replies, I notice the reply editor has no tool in the toolbar for uploading or choosing a file. It has simple formatting tools, that's it.

I'd like them to have the same full course that the Topic post toolbar does, or at least that Choose-Or-Upload-File button.

I have tried clicking the little wrench to go to the toolbar editor, but the choose-or-upload button does not appear in the plugin list. There's a file one, an image one and lots of other things, but not that.

In my admin toolbars, it shows that forums have the full default set, and new topic post does, just the replies do not have it.

Cheers,

-Kent

Try updating the toolbar for comments. I think forum replies are treated as comments.
