I just updated a test board from 4.0.5 (I think; something old, anyway) to 4.1.11. My old custom mobile style is now showing up as a regular style rather than a mobile style. How can I get it into the...

Thanks. If I understand correctly, a newly registered user would have to log out to view messages as a guest until I validated his account. I imagine that would work.

Do you know where I...

I added it to the additional.css, and it's almost perfect. Thanks.

The only drawback is that it stretches every thread vertically, ultimately adding a lot of extra, empty space. Is there...

When the title/thread starter column wraps text or has page numbers or otherwise gets a little taller, the background of the replies/views column gets a gap at the bottom, as in the attached image....

I'm getting there, slowly!

Could someone tell me how I can center adverts in these two locations? Is there something needed in additional.css (as I did to center my header logo)?

What controls the colors in the Search Thread and Search Forum pull downs/popups?

The server got way overloaded, and my registered users couldn't get pages just as a story was breaking. I'm having a conf call with my hosting provider this week to try to figure what happened on his...
