If you are using Forum module you will most likely have issues with displaying thread columns within latest releases of DotNetNuke.

Even official DotNetNuke forum page has same problem.

Well, you can somehow troubleshoot and solve the issue.

To troubleshoot the problem you need to navigate to DesktopModules\Forum\Themes\Default directory and edit Default.css file with a text/css editor.

Before editing Default.css file make sure that you have a backup of this file (e.g Default.css.bak)

Find following entries:

.Forum_RowHighLight1
.Forum_RowHighLight1_Alt
.Forum_RowHighLight2
.Forum_RowHighLight2_Alt
.Forum_RowHighLight3
.Forum_RowHighLight3_Alt

Modify those entries and replace RowHighLight text with RowHighlight.

Correct entries should be:

.Forum_RowHighlight1
.Forum_RowHighlight1_Alt
.Forum_RowHighlight2
.Forum_RowHighlight2_Alt
.Forum_RowHighlight3
.Forum_RowHighlight3_Alt

After this small modification save and close Default.css file and refresh your page where Forum module is placed.

Now, it should display thread columns properly.
