Forum Embed Design and Layout

markjoey

Hi, my client wants me to design his embedded forum on wordpress site like this

question: Is that possible to implement a layout and design like that? If yes, how?

These are things you can customize via the dashboard (specifically /vanilla/settings/advanced).

I suggest you read through the official documentation and search for issues you are having on the forums.

What version of Vanilla are you running?

What exactly do you need help with?

markjoey

Version 2.0.18.8

Im just asking if its possible to have that same layout, with that buttons above and pagination below. I'm just a newbie in vanilla forums, I also don't know what the other buttons above are for. Maybe my client saw a vanilla forum embedded in that way, that's he's asking for something like that.

Yes, you can do this.

This is almost purely style, as the default layout contains all the same data. See below for sample content.

The only thing you will have to do is override the filter tabs (or remove them completely). The easiest way would be to apply a CSS rule like .Tabs.DiscussionsTabs { display:none; }.

What about the pagination? how can I achieve that? I mean I want to limit the number of discussion displayed to 10 then a pagination.
