I'm finding that the top center blocks in the Serenity Orange and xBootstrap 1.03 themes only display at the bottom. For example, if I want a block to display above a module in the top center, it won't. It displays at the bottom. How can I get it to display at the top center like in the default theme?

Thanks,
Hope

Yes, xBootstrap and Serenity Orange
Edited to add -
I just checked and the block displays at the top when I'm not at a module page. But if I'm at the Forum index page (Newbb), the block displays at the bottom. Not what I wanted. I want it to display before the index page info begins. Sometimes I need a block at the top of the page above the module index page.

Thanks,
Hope

try to display the block in the left column when you are on forums.
left column is always displaying before the content.

I guess there is no top center block in xBootstrap? I see this in the code:
<{includeq file="$theme_name/tpl/leftBlock.html"}> <{includeq file="$theme_name/tpl/content-zone.html"}> <{includeq file="$theme_name/tpl/rightBlock.html"}>     <{if $xoBlocks.page_bottomcenter || $xoBlocks.page_bottomright || $xoBlocks.page_bottomleft}> <{includeq file="$theme_name/tpl/leftBottom.html"}> <{includeq file="$theme_name/tpl/centerBottom.html"}> <{includeq file="$theme_name/tpl/rightBottom.html"}>


But the top center block appears to be missing. There is a centerBlock.html in the tpl folder but when I try to add the centerblock before content-zone.html it doesn't display properly.

Sometimes I am required to have a center block display at the top but I guess it's not possible in this theme? Only right or left or bottom, correct?

Yes but can you put a center block above the forum module? I just checked and the block displays at the top when I'm not at a module page. When on a module page, it displays at the bottom.

I just checked the code on github and you are right.
The top blocks are always displaying below the content

content-zone.html
<{if $xoBlocks.canvas_left && $xoBlocks.canvas_right}>
    <
div class="col-sm-6 col-md-6">
        <{elseif 
$xoBlocks.canvas_left}>
            <
div class="col-sm-9 col-md-9">
                <{elseif 
$xoBlocks.canvas_right}>
                    <
div class="col-sm-9 col-md-9">
                        <{else}>
                            <
div class="col-sm-12 col-md-12">
<{/if}>
    <{
includeq file="$theme_name/tpl/contents.html"}>
    
    <
div class="row">
        <{
includeq file="$theme_name/tpl/centerBlock.html"}>
        <{
includeq file="$theme_name/tpl/centerLeft.html"}>
        <{
includeq file="$theme_name/tpl/centerRight.html"}>
    </
div>
</
div>


try to put the blocks above the content like this
<{if $xoBlocks.canvas_left && $xoBlocks.canvas_right}>
    <
div class="col-sm-6 col-md-6">
        <{elseif 
$xoBlocks.canvas_left}>
            <
div class="col-sm-9 col-md-9">
                <{elseif 
$xoBlocks.canvas_right}>
                    <
div class="col-sm-9 col-md-9">
                        <{else}>
                            <
div class="col-sm-12 col-md-12">
<{/if}>
    <
div class="row">
        <{
includeq file="$theme_name/tpl/centerBlock.html"}>
        <{
includeq file="$theme_name/tpl/centerLeft.html"}>
        <{
includeq file="$theme_name/tpl/centerRight.html"}>
    </
div>

    <{
includeq file="$theme_name/tpl/contents.html"}>
</
div>
