A few things ...

The weight setting does not appear to work for ordering links in the horizontal primary links menu ... it works ok when primary links are placed in a block. Am I overlooking something?

Update: I guess that it is sorted alphabetically.

Can anyone clue me in on forum styling? When I link to either forum containers or just one forum the output in the content area is extremely small. I read the previous "forum" post but I'm not understanding why the output is so compressed right out of the box.

Also, I created a few pages and the page title hides part of the first line of text in ie7 ... any thoughts?

Fix for the Page title hiding in IE

Hi Tjrac,
Try these changes within the main CSS file for the Efficient theme. IE doesn't play well with negative margins.

/***************************************/
/* 1. Change the line 877 from: */

#primary .node {
margin: 15px 0 15px 0;
}

To

#primary .node {
margin: 0px 0 15px 0;
}

/************************************/
/* 2. Change the line 882 from */

#primary .meta {
margin: -12px 0 12px 0;
padding-top: 0px;
}

To

#primary .meta {
margin: 0px 0 12px 0;
padding-top: 0px;
}
/************************************/
/* 3. Change line 909 from */

.node h1 {
padding-bottom: 14px;
}

To

.node h1 {
line-height:22px;
margin-top:5px;
}

forum styling and font sizes

Hi tjrac,
The font sizes for the forum can be CSS related to the forum itself. Please use Firebug or the Web developer Firefox extension. Either of these files will point you right to what needs changing.

The reason that the Efficient theme admin fonts are smaller is because the admin pages are meant to fit within the viewable content area of the theme. Unfortunately, the forums use the same CSS font sizes.

The better solution is to create a new .tpl file for the forum pages and have the width take up another column or perhaps the whole width of the theme (inside white space). Firebug can also help here to.
