I have just installed YAF. What it seems to me is that using theme, one can hardly change the color, font etc. But not the layout. I tried editing the ascx files in the pages folder. But could not see any improvement. Can somebody help me understand how these works? Some of the things that I wanted to do are: 1. Putting some text in the header (top of the page, by the side of the logo) 2. Probably having a column in the left side of the page. 3. Editing something in the footer where the credit line comes. I can add or edit the credit line, but not the rest. Please help. Kangkan http://www.geekays.net/

Hi, I'm very new at this but I see no one has answered your question and I have made some alternations to my forum. (http://www.seniorcareofbrevard.com/forum/Default.aspx?g=forum) 1. I placed my header logo on the top of the aspx page - just click on the spot and inserted the pic. 2. Inside the Pages folder, find forum.ascx. Here you can add columns, rows, etc. I moved the active discussions box to fit under the forum. 3. Can't help with the footer question, sorry.
