Something for you guys to consider to match all of the forum boards height in a grid layout. Just figured I'd leave it here it case it has some use.

​or use flex

Please make these boxes uniform.  Uniform = even - in this mention anyhow. For me it's much too distracting due to the un-even uniformity. Lot of mentions for this.

The concept is fine, and I never complain about options (though it should definitely not be default). However, portions of it are honestly pretty poorly done right now. The sub-forum formatting needs work; comma spacing is blatantly wrong (how did this ever get past the first preview...?). Line breaks after every iteration would probably look better at most widths as well.

Looks bad on mobile.

​I've been trying to tell them but I don't think they have much love for those of us who now use mobile primarily :D

Before anyone has a complete meltdown: it's optional and a setting.

​Can this be change by user setting and not board settings? I'm all for it but I don't want to be focus in to it. I like the forums the other way. 

For now, you can toggle between "Default" and "Grid" using the theme selector at the bottom of the page.

​Oooo I see! Thanks Lindy!

Alright, I've created a paid modification request for this layout however IPS feel free to take the idea and run with it 

I feel there could be much better use made from this Grid Layout, instead of just trying to use the same information that exists on the default layout instead optimising the design to make use of this unique layout.  I really like the grid layout, as currently we run a two column forum home on one of our communities and have something similar setup to the image i've included below.
