Default New forum theme - works better on Mobile and small screens [ST Responsive]
I've added some different variations of a new forum style. It should be much nicer to use on phones and tablets (similar to the Tapatalk app).

Click image for larger version Name: Screenshot 2023-09-04 085312.jpg Views: 57 Size: 162.4 KB ID: 5645

There is four different versions:
  • ST Responsive
  • ST Responsive sidebar (shows latest posts on forum pages and index)
  • ST Responsive fixedwidth (doesn't stretch to fit whole screen width on desktop)
  • ST Responsive fixedwidth sidebar
...and 3 colours versions: Blue, Green and Red (so 12 extra themes in total).

I have attached some screenshots.

Use the menu at the bottom-left off the page to change the theme, or go to User CP - Edit Options - Forum skin to change permanently.



This will become the default forum theme soon. (EDIT - It is now the forum default theme.)

Tell me what you think - thoughts, comments, fixes, improvements, complaints etc.

[This will become the default forum theme soon.]

Will it change overnight
or will it take longer?

Not sure, pretty soon.

Depends on the feedback.

It's OK for readability but would love a dark theme version, reading black-on-white on your phone is bad for your eyes .

Okay, I've changed the default style (the one visitors see, or the you see if you have selected the default) to ST Responsive-blue-sidebar-fixedwidth.

Remember to use the menu at the bottom-left off the page to change the theme, or go to User CP - Edit Options - Forum skin to change permanently.

It should display fine on those, like one of the previous styles.

I'm using the Blue coloured version of the new theme. It looks great, although I will have to get used to having the sidebar on the left and not the right.

I have darkened the font, so the text should be clearer.

Just bumping this thread for any returning members.

The ST Responsive themes make using forum on mobile a lot easier, in my opinion. I have hardly used the Tapatalk app recently, although that is available too..

You can even have a different theme selected for desktop and mobile using the menu at the bottom-left of the screen.
