Question Topic Icon / Boardcode Not Displaying Properly?

So when you start a new topic the icons you wish to choose to represent your post are bloated!
So your presented with a ugly vertical strip that you have to scroll down until reaching the topic area.
How can I fix this so the topic icon / barcode displays horizontally like it should be?
I have also attached 3 screenshots of what is happening. THANKS!

Here Is My Configuration Report:

Plugins: JomSocial - My Kunena Forum Menu 2.0.3 | JomSocial - Kunena Groups 2.0.3

Modules: Kunena Latest 3.0.1

I am not sure that I completely understand what you mean by icons that appear bloated (like you have shown in your images), but I would like to make two suggestions:

1) I strongly suggest that you change your forum integration plugins as shown in red below:

Kunena - AlphaUserPoints Disabled
Kunena - Community Builder Disabled
Kunena - Gravatar Disabled
Kunena - JomSocial Disabled
Kunena - Joomla Enabled: access=1 login=1
Kunena - Kunena Enabled: avatar=1 profile=1
Kunena - UddeIM Disabled

2) I strongly suggest that you uninstall the add-on plugins JomSocial - My Kunena Forum Menu 2.0.3 and JomSocial - Kunena Groups 2.0.3. These add-ons do not work with K 3.0.

I have a feeling that the problem you are having is caused by your Joomla site template CSS (see My Joomla site template makes a mess of Kunena ... . I think I have seen this problem once or twice before but I cannot remember exactly what was the cause.

First things first: make the changes I recommended and we will see what ideas we can come up with to address your problem.

"1) I strongly suggest that you change your forum integration plugins as shown in red below:"

By change do you mean enable them?

"2) I strongly suggest that you uninstall the add-on plugins JomSocial - My Kunena Forum Menu 2.0.3 and JomSocial - Kunena Groups 2.0.3. These add-ons do not work with K 3.0."

I have never uninstalled plugins before could you walk me through this process please?

Sorry I'm such a noob, I just don't want to mess anything up. :ohmy:

I mean disable those plugins, show in red above

I have never uninstalled plugins before could you walk me through this process please?

1) Go to Extensions » Extension Manager
2) Click Manage on the left side of the screen
3) Find the plugin JomSocial - My Kunena Forum Menu 2.0.3
4) Tick the checkbox next to this item and then click the Uninstall button at the top of the screen
5) Find the plugin JomSocial - Kunena Groups 2.0.3
6) Tick the checkbox next to this item and then click the Uninstall button at the top of the screen.

Ok I have the ones you suggested in red now disabled.

I can just ignore this part right, no changes here?

Kunena - Joomla Enabled: access=1 login=1
Kunena - Kunena Enabled: avatar=1 profile=1

Now for the two you said two uninstall:

JomSocial - My Kunena Forum Menu 2.0.3
JomSocial - Kunena Groups 2.0.3

Im not seeing these or at least the JomSocial part in the title.
I did find these though:
My Forum Menu 2.0.3
Kunena Groups 2.0.3

Both were already disabled, are these the two you mean?
If so, should I still uninstall them, even if they were already disabled?

I am not sure that I completely understand what you mean by icons that appear bloated (like you have shown in your images)

The images are exactly how they are appearing, blown up and oversized instead of being the actual size. So they are in this huge vertical strip. Does that make more sense?

WhenI said uninstall two plugins I meant uninstall the plugins. The two "JomSocial" plugins do not work at all with K 3.0. After you have done as I suggested, please post your configuration report again. Thank you

Unfortunately I cannot see the problem just by looking at pictures. I need to see the actual web page. This means that I would need

a) the URL of your website; and
b) a test account to login.

I was confused because I was not seeing "JomSocial" in the title?
So I wasn't sure if these are the two you were saying to uninstall.
I have uninstalled these...
My Forum Menu 2.0.3
Kunena Groups 2.0.3
