Hi there,

I would like to cut the hight of the topic bar by few px.

In the documentation page you gave us a hint about narrowing the sidebar width, that I've implemented and it works.
I'm sure that you have some more tricks in your sleeves about my request.
It is all about real-estate and 'at glance' viewing more topics per page.

Thank you

Hi yossik,

Please try this CSS code (as an exception):

#wpforo #wpforo-wrap .wpfl-1 .wpforo-category {padding:2px 12px;}
#wpforo #wpforo-wrap .wpfl-1 .wpforo-forum-description {padding:0;}

We provide CSS codes if something is wrong with front-end style. I'm sorry but forum style customization is not included in our support. I'd recommend you to learn basic CSS codding using this manual: http://www.w3schools.com/css/default.asp

You just need a few days to learn minimal and very helpful CSS syntaxes.

First, thank you

The code works and I think it should be in the core or user defined. 
Why?
Because it is it is not customization of the theme we are using but the way wpForo presents the info in the browser.
To illustrate the change here are side-by-side screens.
On the left is my test system with with the modified code on on the right is the production that I did not change yet.
You tell me, which looks better - the left screen or the right?
To my opinion, the left is tighter but not cluttered and even with the expanded it shows more info.

Thank you  

Robert

Thank you for this screen.

I don't think the thin categories look good. All depends on WordPress theme and number of forums in each category.

Well, so we agree that we do not agree on the look... it a subjective issue not objective.
In any case, the provided code helped me very much and thank you for that.
[off topic, I think that the statistics at the bottom of the page is also too big]

Thank you
