Andy,
When using the Select Forum dropdown menu, the forum groups listed have a very light grey color. I would like to darken slightly to be a bit more readable. Can you tell me what css style element controls that attribute?
Thanks!

Try adding this to your skin CSS file and the adjusting as you wish:
#sforum .sfmessagestrip optgroup.sflist {
color: black;
font-style: normal;
font-weight: bold;
}
#sforum .sfmessagestrip select.sfquicklinks {
float: right;
font-size: 110%;
font-weight: normal;
color: #000000;
}
#sforum .sfmessagestrip select.sfquicklinks option {
padding-bottom: 2px;
color: #000000;
}
Should do it…

Sorry, no go Andy. No change. To test I added the following:
#sforum .sfmessagestrip optgroup.sflist {
color: green;
font-style: normal;
font-weight: bold;
}
#sforum .sfmessagestrip select.sfquicklinks {
float: right;
font-size: 110%;
font-weight: normal;
color: #89ae8b;
}
#sforum .sfmessagestrip select.sfquicklinks option {
padding-bottom: 2px;
color: #cc0000;
}

No sorry - I got it wrong. I see now that 2.1 didn’t have the class defined in the dropdown. I was working from V3 code and hadn’t remembered that I added the class. Take those new lines out and see if you can do anything with the sfquicklinks css that is already in the CSS file.
V3 - coming fairly shortly, will allow for much more styling.

Thanks Andy. When do you expect to release V3? If I am in the process of setting up my forum now, would you recommend waiting for the new release? Thinking about how much work I may save myself if I wait…. or perhaps you expect the upgrade process to be painless?

I’m hoping by the end of this month although I won’t promise yet! The code is virtually function complete but there is a lot of testing to be done before it’s ready.
It should prove to be a painless upgrade. The main problems will be (a) a LOT of CSS changes so people who have crafted their own skin are going to hate me (but it’s not that hard to update a custom skin) and (b) the language files are going to take quite a while to come through.

Patrick,
I would go ahead and set up your forum now… Unless you are extensively customizing your own theme (I do see the original post), the upgrade process will be very seamless and easy…

Thanks Mr. Papa,
How do you handle this common dilemma?
When you enable Registration on your Wordpress site, you will typically see the "Register" and "My Profile" tabs appear at the top of your page. (I have already had to use a plugin that suppresses the dashboard for registered viewers.) If a user clicks on either of these, it takes them into the default blue’ish world of WordPress. Not good. What I do like is Simple-Forum’s ability to "keep" this process within its own style shell. This makes WP upgrades much easier. Perhaps the only option is to find out how to suppress the Register and My Profile tabs, but this issue still confounds me. All I want is an easy to use, consistent and easy to maintain login/registration process. Got any advice??
Appreciate it!

This is buried somewhere in your theme code. Maybe i the sidebar file, the header file… but somewhere. Most usually it is a tag called ‘wp_loginout’ or ‘the_meta’. Yoiu simply need to find the tags and remove them

or if you are using wp widgets, just remove the meta widget from your sidebar or other location on the admin widgets page…
