    hi @phenomlab

    I use .category-item:first-of-type css properties for add a border-top on my principal pages like recent, unread etc…

    But this properties add a border too on topic header categories name.

    It’s possible to disable it just on topic (topic.header) ?

    @phenomlab

    I think I understand but I don’t find the good CSS class

    here the code for recent page for example :

    .category-item:first-of-type {
    	border-top: 1px solid #0a769978 !important;
        border-top-left-radius: 4px !important;
        border-top-right-radius: 4px !important;
    }
    

    and I will test this for disable border-top on topic page but don’t work:

    .category-item:first-of-type:not(.category-item .inline-block){
    	border-top: 0px solid #0a769978 !important;
    }
    

    here the html code :

    @DownPW sorry for late reply. Can you provide me with a url where this issue exists ? PM is fine of course if you don’t want to publish directly here.

    @DownPW A couple of things here. You are using the !important argument twice - one will override the other, meaning they can’t both be set like that - typically, the last marked so will be preferred. Would this not work better ?

    .category-item.inline-block {
        border-top: none !important;
    }
    
    .category-item:first-of-type {
        border-top: 1px solid #0a769978;
        border-top-left-radius: 4px;
        border-top-right-radius: 4px;
    }

    @DownPW Try this

    .tag-list {
        display: inline-block;
        margin-top: 5px;
        line-height: 1.7;
    }
    

    Because you are using inline-block to float the elements on the same line, you cannot use margins to control the space. In this case, line-height will provide what you are looking for.

    @phenomlab

    great

    line-height: 1.7;

    is very good 😉

    @DownPW is there a URL where I can check this ? Might not be this evening, but definitely tomorrow am.

    @DownPW Try this

    @media (max-width: 768px) {
    .slideout-panel {
        margin-right: 1px;
    }
    }
    

    The issue here is how other mobile browsers interpret the padding on the slideout panel, so we need to “patch” it so that those browsers can use the forced margin instead.

    @Panda category is for a category in its own, so for example, “fruit” whereas categories is the page that contains all categories as a list.

    The real issue here is that most people consider forums to be “dead” in the sense that nobody uses them anymore, and social media groups have taken their place. Their once dominant stance in the 90’s and early 00’s will never be experienced again, but having said that, there are a number of forums that did in fact survive the social media onslaught, and still enjoy a large user base. Forums tend to be niche. One that immediately sticks out is Reddit - despite looking like it was designed in the 80s, it still has an enormous user base. Another is Stack Overflow, which needs no introduction. The key to any forum is the content it offers, and the more people whom contribute in terms of posting , the more popular and widely respected it becomes as a reliable source of information. Forums are still intensely popular with gamers, alongside those that offer tips on hacking etc.

    @cagatay you’ll need to define this in the body tag (or another element if you want greater or more granular targets) - for example body { font-family: "Poppins"; font-size: 16px; } Essentially, you use the font-size CSS directive.
