After upgrade User menu aligns vertically to the left of screen (see image), this has happened on 3 out of 3 forums I have upgraded, the first two were corrected after rebuilding the themes and refreshing but not piasa.info.

I presume this has something to do with the custom theme and header, which seems to be a consistent issue for me during upgrades. I tend to remove the large bar in the header as well as the cherub leaving just the text.

Any ideas on what causes this?

You are using a custom theme with a non-default forum.css.tmpl file. So, you need to update your CSS template with the style elements you need from the default CSS template. In particular, look for the section "/* User Control Panel / Top Level Menu. */".

Well Alrighty then that's better! I knew the CSS controlled the menu alignment (L.R.C.) but was unaware there had been that much change.


I copied this code from the Default CSS and inserted it into piasa's CSS to get the menu back:
/* User Control Panel / Top Level Menu. */
#UserControlPanel {
	float: right;
	width: 100%;
	margin: 5px 0 10px 10px;
}	
#UserControlPanel ul {
	list-style: none;
	float: right;
	padding: 0;
	margin: 0;
	text-align:right;
}
#UserControlPanel li {
	margin: 0 7px 0 0;
	position:relative;
	display: inline;
	white-space: nowrap;
}
#UserControlPanel li a {
	color: #069;
	text-decoration: none;
}


Apparently I need to get the CSS up to snuff with the defaults

You can use the above code from the default CSS template, or experiment with some of the styles at

I appreciate the link though it's over my head, I consider myself lucky if I understand 15% of what the CSS applies to (Though the comment codes do help some).

Aside from the menu having been set vertically to the right; the lower "login" field was also moved to the right and the footer ling to FUDforum.org is gone entirely from 2 of 4 installations after the upgrade, but I don't see those in the CSS.

But I'm not seeing either of those listed in the CSS, were those somehow changed as well?

To fix the alignment you need to copy the following from the default CSS template:
.fl { float: left; }
.fr { float: right; }

See footer.tmpl for changes you need to apply to your own footer template (powered-by was split into powered-by and copyright messages).

Ok Managed to get those fixed looks like I will need to do lots of work of those custom themes though.

Although the log in field is now positioned properly, the Log in splash screen still comes up aligned to the left and the top of the image meshes with the Menu though (both instances if this are with custom themes so I imagine it's a similar problem, i believe the Post screen is doing the same thing).
