1. I have just realised in that pic, the profile and messages symbols don't show, I want them to show too if that is possible 

#wpforo #wpforo-wrap .wpforo-post .wpforo-memberinfo {
    display: block !important;
}

The one on the left, is how it is displayed now, the one on the right is how i would like it to look.

remove the previous coeds I've provided for this purpose and use this one:

.author-data {
    display: flex;
    flex-direction: column;
}
.wpforo-mycred-rank-wrap{
    order: 1;
}

.author-title {
    order: 2;
}

.author-rating-full {
    order: 3;
}

.wpforo-mycred-badges-wrap {
    order: 4;
}

.wpforo-mycred-points-wrap {
    order: 5;
}

.author-joined {
    order: 6;
}

.author-posts {
    order: 7;
}

.author-title {
    display: flex !important;
    flex-direction: column-reverse;
}

I have also noticed that it doesn't display like this across all forums. I use extend and simplified..... is it possible to make sure all posts in the thread look the same, regardless of type of forum? 

You can set forum layouts in top/parent Category settings. Child forums’ layout depends on the top category (blue panels) layout. They cannot have a different layout. So just edit the Category and change the layouts.
