Thinking out aloud, would it not be better installing a new phpBB theme that works with the new version rather than hacking the css/html ??

Just a thought....

phpBB has a couple of base themes, then third parties develop themes - essentially child themes based on one of those. They do not seem to be created to be easy to work with, they do not give you a way to add your logo for example. The theme we have is a third party theme that does work with the new version. The only hacks we have done to it are adding our logo and custom menu, which we would have to do with any theme we selected.

Not sure what happened but the borders on the Index page in Google Chrome are now segmented whereas as thy were continuous before. The logo "fix" was effective although the previous one looked better to me. You cannot please everybody. However it is more in keeping with the original intent as I understand it :happy:
