Feature request: Different text for topic & reply posting rules

    You have added the option to include text for posting rules/advice. This could be really useful. At present one enables it separately for topics and replies bu it is the same text.

    Could we please have separate text for the two cases.

    Rational: I would like to include advice to those making replies like “Before posting a reply, consider x, y and z”. This would be inappropriate to display on the new topic form.

    Thanks.

    Minor observations:
    The posting rules for a new topic appears after the “Your account has the ability to post unrestricted HTML content” message.
    The posting rules for a new reply appears before the “Your account has the ability to post unrestricted HTML content” message.

    I think I am supposed to be able to style/colour these texts with the controls in section 11. I cannot make these work, even with a default theme. Am I missing something?

    ok, I’ve changed them to be consistent – will be in next release.

    The styling works fine on my test site.

    as a test, can you try adding this to custom css and let me know the result, it should give a yellow background

    #bbpress-forums .bsp-topic-rules {
	background-color: #eeee22;
}

    if that doesn’t work then try

    #bbpress-forums .bsp-topic-rules {
	background-color: #eeee22 !important;
}

    Styling now working for me. It was a caching issue.
    Sorry about that!
