I don't know why but "Quote this post" feature doesn't work for me, and i wanted to answer multiple people in one post but that doesn't work without the feature.

I do plan to make a git repo for the theme(s) at some point. That may be a better place to track theme specific issues in the long run.

Once you click on a forum, there are icons next to each thread telling you if there are any unread but that's it. You currently have to open each forum individually to see if there are any unread.
The icons I'm talking about:
Curious I thought those *were* for that, it's likely a theming bug. Will have to look into it in more detail.
EDIT: I took a look and it's doing some major CSS magic, different from the default theme, that just doesn't seem to be working. Might need @thornbill to check.

Seemed to just work for me, even across pages. You can't use Quick Reply though, you have to select the post with "Quote this post" then go to "New Reply".
Also there's two navigation things I plan to fix, namely that "New Reply" is only at the top and the page numbers are only at the bottom. I think both should be in both places.

These ones are now done after a bit of fiddling.

Hey mods! I just completed this guide and it would really benefit from more than the 5-attachment limit. Any chance I can have my attachment limit upped to 10 or 15 so I can add a few more helpful zip files and screenshots? Loving the forum. Thanks!

Sure! I think as far as guides go this might be one of the more extensive - how many exactly do you think you'll need? I can set it to 15 for now and if that's not enough can consider a few more, but want to be sure I don't set it too high and suffer abuse.

15 should be great. I think that gives me enough headroom to add everything I want to get in there. Thank you!
Oh and one other random FYI: The text for the font size and font style in the full editor is white and difficult to see when selected (I know you're still making settings changes since the forum is new!)

I'm not sure if the intention was to keep all such requests in this single thread, but I suspect with a shiny new system and a (hopefully) massive influx of users a single thread will get a little out of hand with multiple issues.
I would recommend a "Meta" forum. When using StackOverflow sites I've really appreciated having somewhere to go to look at those types of things.

Good catch, I'll check into that.

As mentioned above I think that for now this thread is sufficient. A forum for this would gain some traction now but, eventually, just be dead. I'd rather keep it to a thread unless our metadiscussions end up becoming more extensive.
Worth noting too that the forum is still very new, and we're still figuring stuff out and tweaking things. It will stabilize eventually.
