Yup, done that.
It still looks the same, and great.
Thanks again.

Thanks for that, I’ll know where to look in future for anything else.
I don’t use blocks but just edit the old way. That is, anywhere on the page.
Screen shot of where I added the code

Finally …

Found a theme (Sydney ) that allowed me to add this code in the backend Theme Editor and actually execute it. and also keep everything as I wanted.

That looks like the last modification that I’ve been seeking, done!

Thanks.

I still have no luck with current theme functions.php Tried everything, nothing I put in there seems to work but after deciding to go find a free theme with at least one sidebar, seems TWENTY TEN does, so after a bit of playing around I now have a side bar with latest posts ascending and an excerpt under each to give the reader an idea what is in each.

Almost there ??

I still have no luck withe themes functions.php file but the backend widgets do work, but the theme only has bottom widget. Since the forum display does not take up the entire screen width a sidebar would be better.
But I would prefer to preserve the clean layout on the home page I have and just change ACTIVITY.

I note that some YT links stay as links, while others display the graphical version.

Any idea why?

Thanks for your reply and although I no longer need it I will test it under the Senses theme.
I looked about for a FREE theme that would work and lucked in with a nice one on my third try.
Should anyone want to try it for any other incompatibility issue with their current theme, look up and do a live review using HESTIA

My Theme is Senses Pro.
You are correct, the color options in it have no effect on the Asgaros problem since Twenty Nineteen does it properly with the same installed text plugins. Classic and Tiny MCE Advanced
However Twenty Nineteen is a bit light on in features so I am looking about for a basic theme that provides the capability of displaying an image in a Banner and doesn’t have the problem this topic is about.

CLOSED..

Ah, knew straight off when i read that.. It had mentioned NEW themes for 22 earlier today so I just went for it, thinking it would be an option.. Clearly it isn’t. So, deactivated just that and it’s all working fine now..

Thanks for the quick and accurate prognosis.. ??

In the Post editor find the “Publish” section.
Next to “Visibility” click on edit and then check the “Stick this post to the front page” option there.
Click save and you’re done.

(saw this elsewhere.. good luck)
