Hello all, I’m new here, and wasn’t sure where to post this since this questions about CSS/HTML were outside the scope on the support category. Anyway I digress. I came across Discourse through another platform I frequently use, and moved my Forum over to Discourse. The layout that is used on the platform looks really nice and I’m trying to do something similar. Anyone an idea how to do this kind of thing?
just a basic HTML/CSS edit or do I need to use a plugin?
you mean layout like this?
for the green banner it can be done by editing css or take a look at existed banner component
And also hide the avatar from topic list through css

This layout uses custom handlebars templates and css, you can find more info in this topic:
Though you might get there without adding new templates. You’d have to use fixed category positions in admin settings and then just add spaces and banner styles with CSS. I posted the approach here:

Thank you. I will try this out. the layout for example CFX.RE banner are these categories with subcategories? So the CFX.Re is the main category and Announcements, Cookbook and FxDK are subcategories, or are all of these just a single category?
In your screenshot ‘Announcements’, ‘Cookbook’ and ‘FxDK’ are the categories.
‘Design Documents’ and ‘Commit Annotations’ are for example sub-categories of Cookbook.
And the CFx.re banner is a custom layout element.
Alright thanks. I think I have enough to go by and start designing
