Hi!

once again, great theme! ... but :

  • even if unselected, the navigation bar stay fixed and on place during page scrolling.
  • even if unselected, shadows are still present on the "new discussion" button", the tag button on the right-bottom corner of the posts list (main page or forum's pages) and behind the dark/light theme selection button (in the navbar)
