Where is the option that will make the call to action (telling users to register) appear? And that makes the large image come down almost in the shape of a triangle?
Style Properties | [UI.X] Welcome Block
.. Enable Welcome Section
.. Enable Welcome Section On All Pages

and then

User Group Permissions | Can View Welcome Block
.. Allow for Unregistered / Unconfirmed user group
.. Not Set (No) for Registered user group

Thank you! However, It doesn't appear in the shape that the demo does. Is that just an edited graphic or is there another option somewhere?

ETA: Nevermind, I guess it just doesn't appear that way in firefox..

What are some of the issues with this theme on mobile? I bought it without checking.

@Mike Creuzer

I made a notice that shows on the default theme but not on Xenith. You seem to have them on the demo site. Is there a separate setting in UI.X?
 
In mobile view, the xfmg sidebar is not centered like forums sidebar:

... and would be great we could have the blue dash below the block name to have a more consistent design :)

Where do I define a different image logo on the header/welcome block and the sticky navigation?
[UI.X] Logo | Brandmark Image Path .... this logo appears on both.
 
Block Notices ( /admin.php?notices/ ) do not appear to be working correctly.
  1. Notice does not appear at all, if there is only 1 applicable to to display to user (you have to have > 1 applicable to user before any display)
  2. Board inactive ( /admin.php?options/list/boardActive ) automatic notice is not appearing
  3. Only the Title of the notice(s) displays, not the message/content
 
Anyone using Showcase add-on by @Bob ?
I'm seeing a couple of display issues when using it's Forum Home page functionality; i) with slider shown above forum node list, the top of the content area doesn't horizontally align with the top of the sidebar, ii) displaying Showcase node list at the bottom of forum nodes, but no Showcase nodes appear.

What is the ideal dimensions for the main background image?

The demo image is 1820x1022, but I've had good luck testing with 1920x1080 as well.

It doesn't resize responsively, it shows different pieces of the image depending on browser size. That isn't a bad thing, but requires a lot of thought to be put into a background image lol.
 
I purchased the theme the other week and tried it out myself. I ended up uninstalling it though. There were just some things that I didn't like. I think it's getting there but not quite as polished as ui.x. So I think I will be waiting for awhile to try again. Not knocking the theme or anything I think it's just going to take some time to evolve like ui.x did.

Do a force update. This was fixed moments after we released so only affects a handful of people.

A force update may fix this as well. We're trying to be clever about how we figure out what that element is up there. Sometimes its XMG sometimes its featured threads, sometimes its bob's showcase. Everyone is using different classes. Try the update and let meknow if that fixes it.
I think @Mike Creuzer has forgot this in the last update :-(
Its on my list, I know. Im sorry.

Do a force update, this is fixed now.

Will add it to the bug list.

Doesnt really matter, depends on what you are targeting. Larger the dimensions/smaller the file size the better. 1920x1080 is a fine standard. We have backstretch enabled so you can try that.

Where do I define a different image logo on the header/welcome block and the sticky navigation?
[UI.X] Logo | Brandmark Image Path .... this logo appears on both.

You cannot. They are the same image path. We essentially have 6 main types of logos:

  1. Desktop logo large
  2. Desktop logo small
  3. Tablet logo (maybe)
  4. Mobile logo
  5. Sticky nav logo (maybe)
  6. Footer logo
UI.X only takes care of the most common. The first 2. We feel that it suffices and is less confusing than adding all of these in, although quite possible that we may. But at this level it makes more sense to widgetize the logo.

It doesn't resize responsively, it shows different pieces of the image depending on browser size. That isn't a bad thing, but requires a lot of thought to be put into a background image lol.

If you use backstretch, it should. The setting can be setup and enabled under UI.X Global Settings.

What specifically was not good? If its a bug, we will fix it in the next release.
 
Another position on your bug list should be the pageNav. If scrollable is enabled just the first page is underlined, all other are without border-bottom 'cause the line-height.
I changed it at xendach to background-color..

Like I said not really bugs so to say. But for one I couldn't find the option to hide node descriptions. The logo function could use a little going over. It's primarily made for users that want to use a text logo. I was able to get a image one to fit, but had to do alot of tweaking to get it to look correctly. Now I understand that it's not really made for a photo logo. Plus even dropping the avatars from large back to normal left wide gaps of empty space. I really wanted to hide node descriptions without having to modify code. Something like ui.x. A simple check box. Again not all bugs just things that I noticed.
