Andrew, it's simple go back to old auth_navbar.
In views/layout.html comment this jquery code: jQuery('.auth_navbar').each(function(){ jQuery(this) .addClass('btn-group') .children('a').addClass('btn') }); and change the <div id="navbar"> in this way (note separators): <div id="navbar">{{='auth' in globals() and auth.navbar(separators=(' ',' | ',''))}}</div> At least add below 2 rows to bottom of static/css/bootswatch.css: #navbar{ padding-top:9px; } #navbar .auth_navbar, #navbar .auth_navbar a{ color:inherit; //color:expression(this.parentNode.currentStyle['color']); /* ie7 doesn't support inherit */ } Please, let me know if it works.
