Site Updates

Post by **MSG Commander** » Sat Feb 24, 2018 7:21 am

No not get used to, just give it a day or two. It's probably something on the server, and we need to wait for the server files to refresh. If that is the case then everything should be normal probably within one day.

If the problem persists for you then I just need to modify the code until it works properly, but we won't know until the server refresh.

By the way, right now on my phone your last post didn't show at all until I actually logged in... which is another sign that there's some server issue with updating to a new template.

@msg-commander, I just checked it out on Firefox on different phone and it seems that I'd have to do something to reset it. It's looking exactly like you showed so I'll log out and in to check if that was the case. EDIT: It's still the same.

Yoshouldn't change something that works on most browsers. I don't need any other browser so I can live with the fact that not all browsers make same effects.

@mastertrek Everything on the site is working for me now, exactly the way it looked on my local (development) copy of the site.

So, if you're still having problems with the menus, it *should* clear up soon (fingers crossed).

I like the new design. I didnt like the bars on either side of the screen.

Haha I didn't like the bars either; I just didn't know how to set the max-width on the body, and still have the header and footer stretch all the way across the screen. I like it much better now this way.

Someday when I feel the urge again, I'd like to redesign the forum "index" pages, the pages that just show the list of forums... I like how things are arranged, but I don't really like how it looks. (I just don't know any better way to do it yet.)

Not that it matters, but if someone wants to quote other person text, the text (spoiler hidden content) itself doesn't contain any paragraphs.

Funny thing : The Quote button knows future. [quote=27202]Not that it matters, but if someone wants to quote other person text(spoiler hidden content), the text itself doesn’t contain any paragraphs.

If you change quote number to the one that does not exist, what will happen? Answer: It will remain with no text until the quote number shows up (I changed it to 27202 so whatever person adds a text with this number, it will show up here.

I'd really like to see back the person statistics (topics and number of replies). I miss them..

Topics and replies still show up if you hold your phone in landscape mode. For portrait mode, I wanted to make the author information as compact as possible, and couldn't find a way to display all the information and have it fit neatly. But I may be able to play around with the font size or something, and make it all fit.

Oh that's great

I don't usually browse in landscape mode unless I am doing that on tablet. And I understand that it wouldn't fit on portrait mode now.

And besides that, on landscape mode if I hit on my profile icon I can't check everything because it goes off screen.

It's probably another browser fault but whenever I want to type anything, usually it either copies same thing twice or cuts it in half so I usually have to redo the whole thing.
