Ah, good to know. Thank you!

Great theme.
When click on quote for entire message, it doesn't insert citation.

I just noticed that also in testing. When you quote someone it just says "Quote but not who/what the quote is from. I'd prefer it cited the quote source too. Guess that's another thing to look into.

Someone know how solve this?

Hi Mick, Feather is a wonderful theme, I must confess. A fantastic job done.

But I noticed newer posts on my forum now shows at the top. i.e a response comes above a topic instead of below and I don't seem to be able to reset it from the Admin center.

Anyone here know a way out of this?

Check your profile > look and layout preferences, there's an option in there for having newest replies at the top.

Done, thank you.

Hi, members stil see it in that view. No means to change it generally from my side?

[Arantor]

Sure there are, Admin > Themes and Layout > Member Options. You can reset individual theme options from there for people using different themes.

It took some time but i finally found out what was causing the problems with the popup window that should show who liked the post. Indeed that it has nothing to do with the team itself, and even none of my mods.

Its the Minimise CSS- and JavaScript-files setting in the main forum settings. When that is turned on it messes it up somehow. Even on a clean install of this theme.

Furthermore i found out that this same setting is also what causes the quick edit button to stop working. So turning the setting off fixed both issues for me.

So hopefully this can help others that use this team also. 

THANK YOU!

You made my day! This trick works. Now my quick edit button works now. Thanks!

I just updated my site from 2.1.3 to 2.1.4. This theme seems to be working fine.

Hello, I'm new to smf, so indulge me when I ask for the obvious.
I'm having a problem with the feather theme that I can't figure out. The dropdown-menu of the notification-button is being misplaced. There is a sizeable gap between the button and the dropdown-menu. In Curve2 it is correctly placed right underneath the button.
Anyone familiar with this bug and, more importantly, anyone knows the fix?

(first picture = Curve2, second = feather)

Has this theme been abandoned?

[Diego Andrés]

Probably, but not definitively.
In any case the topic has some helpful tips and fixes.

I'll see if I can help you with this issue during the weekend.

[peterjk]

That would be great, because I'm really at a loss on this issue

Add this at the end of Themes/feather/css/index.css

Code Select Expand

.pagesection {
overflow: unset;
}
.pagesection:has( + #messageindex) {
min-height: 50px;
}
.pagesection .buttonlist {
position: relative;
}
.buttonlist .top_menu.notify_dropdown {
top: 30px !important;
right: 0;
left: auto !important;
}
.buttonlist .top_menu.notify_dropdown a:hover {
background-color: #f5f5f5;
}

A million thanks, Diego. Problem solved! (I was away for a holiday, so I only now saw your answer.)
I'm curious though, what caused the problem. In the default theme everything is fine, so what is the code in the feather theme, that caused this? I like to understand, so I know what to look for when I make changes to the theme for our clubforum.
Thanks again, much appreciated.

[Diego Andrés]

It has a conflict with the positioning of the elements in the pagesection.
Likely just an issue that went unnoticed. However, the theme was developed around 2.1.1-2.1.2 SMF patches so it's also possible it's missing those changes.

Ok, that's probably a bit too advanced for where I am on the learning curve.
I'm wondering now, if it's feasible for us to use this theme (or any theme that's no longer supported) given that it's support seems to have ended. Will we run into problems with a new release of SMF?
I'm used to run websites with Wordpress and when a theme or plugin is no longer supported it's good practice to change to something else.
