Vertex 4 does not seem too bitter to bootstrap the Crypsis template Kunena 5.
It plans an updated version?
Thank you

Hello,

We do not stylize third party components. Our templates include a basic bootstrap that is meant to stylize the core Joomla components. A component is responsible for styling itself, and should not be relying on the template. If there is an issue with the component's theme, then there is either missing or incomplete css for that theme. I have looked at several Kunena themes and that has been the case.

Hello,

We do not stylize third party components. Our templates include a basic bootstrap that is meant to stylize the core Joomla components. A component is responsible for styling itself, and should not be relying on the template. If there is an issue with the component's theme, then there is either missing or incomplete css for that theme. I have looked at several Kunena themes and that has been the case.

I have an issue with this response. After spending hours trying to troubleshoot issues with Kunena log-in form not working (you can't type in the fields), I have discovered that the Kunena login form works fine with the Protostar template, along with a Rockettheme template that I use on another site. There is some sort of conflict between Kunena and the Shape 5 templates (I have actually tried two different Shape 5 templates with the same result.) You can see what I mean by going to http://crazysuzy.co/forum/index and trying to use the log in forms (either one). I have also tried enabling and disabling your register and log in modules, but that has not made a difference. Here is how Kunena 5 looks on a site that does work: https://cal4wheel.com/forum/index (running Rockettheme).

Also, the Kunena 5 themes come with their own bootstrap support that can be disabled. I have tried enabling and disabling bootstrap on the Kunena template and it has made no difference.

Hello,

Items like not not being able to type are because the theme is relying on the template for it's css, as I stated above. They don't provide enough css to stylize their themes properly and rely to heavily on the themes. If they want their product to look a specific way they need to provide css that specifically stylizes it for all areas.

You can't type in the inputboxes because their inputboxes don't accept proper em font-size calls for some reason. You can change the font-size call, but their component should work with the font-size that comes with the template.

You can add the following to custom.css:

.inputbox, .registration input, .login input, .contact-form input, #jform_contact_message, input, textarea, .validate, select, textarea, input[type="text"], input[type="password"], input[type="datetime"], input[type="datetime-local"], input[type="date"], input[type="month"], input[type="time"], input[type="week"], input[type="number"], input[type="email"], input[type="url"], input[type="search"], input[type="tel"], input[type="color"], .uneditable-input {
font-size:12px !important;
}

Thank you Mike! That took care of the input field problem on all of the forms on the site. I had tested the regular Joomla log in form on an inside page and it wasn't working either. Your custom.css fixed it.

It would still be the case to upgrade Vertex (I consider the best framework), to support also bootstrap 3.
Thank you

Hello,

Regarding bootstrap, the only reason why we include bootstrap css files at all is because the core Joomla pages use the bootstrap layout. Our templates and other products do not use it. Joomla is still built on bootstrap 2, so that is the css files that must come with in order to stylize the core pages.
