BOARD MIGRATED : LIST OF KNOWN PROBLEMS

Re: BOARD MIGRATED : LIST OF KNOWN PROBLEMS

@larry, see if you like it
@andy, probably, but ads and the logon-change must be added to aeroblue first
I expect that change requests will die down after a while, then I'll switch.
It also depends on how many people select it themselves, i.e. how popular it becomes
@Jeff, that's one for another day, but I'll check it out

Re: BOARD MIGRATED : LIST OF KNOWN PROBLEMS

Aeroblue seems to be the way to go. Easy to look at and the giant signature problem seems to be gone.

I still want the "Print topic" feature that seems to be available - according to the Php forums anyway.

Sorry = I said "topic", I meant "print whole thread."

Re: BOARD MIGRATED : LIST OF KNOWN PROBLEMS

When initially coming to the board, and under the default style, I cannot log in using the boxes at the top of the pages using Firefox, only the boxes at the bottom of the page will work. This is not a problem in internet explorer for some reason.

Re: BOARD MIGRATED : LIST OF KNOWN PROBLEMS

Thanks, I had some trouble too. try the "delete all cookies" button at the bottom of the page from the offending browser, then close all browsers.
then start browser again and login.
if that still does not work, mail me forum at subcommittee. dot com

Re: BOARD MIGRATED : LIST OF KNOWN PROBLEMS

Tim, I believe we have something that comes close.
go to your thread of choice, then look around on the screen for the "print view" button (in aeroblue)
or a small printer icon in the top right corner (in the default prosilver style).
let me know if this is what you wanted.

Clearing the cookies worked. Ta!

Re: BOARD MIGRATED : LIST OF KNOWN PROBLEMS

Hi Jeff,

about "time last visited"

a quick test i did indicates the "last date visited" seems to be the time you logged out previously.
if you are on automatic login, then you vbasically never log out I think, so maybe that gives strange
effects.

it is governed by the timezone stated in your user profile, check if that one is correct.

Regards,
Ronald

Re: BOARD MIGRATED : LIST OF KNOWN PROBLEMS

The board is supposed to log you out automatically after 60 minutes....but it seems to take (much?) longer than that......

-Jeff

p.s. timezone is correct, but shouldn't make a difference?

Re: BOARD MIGRATED : LIST OF KNOWN PROBLEMS

Could those blank fields be at the top of the page instead? (My Question)

good one.
yes, that should be possible. I'll check it out.

Thanks Ronald. That works great and even in Firefox. Much quicker to login.

Re: BOARD MIGRATED : LIST OF KNOWN PROBLEMS

I don't see some of the problems others are talking about, ex. signature files super-sized.

This only occurred in the optional 'Aero blue' style, but I'm glad to say has now been fixed. I recommend the 'aero blue' style, I find it much more legible and clear than the default board style. I hope the administrators will eventually make it the default style.

Actually it is not fixed. I just switched to Aero Blue (much like the old board style) and if you preview a post the sig file is huge, but only in preview. I can live with that if necessary.

Re: BOARD MIGRATED : LIST OF KNOWN PROBLEMS

Thanks,

the general layout is hard to understand as a lot of variables govern it.
I'll fix the "preview" mode in a while. I would not be surpriseed if the drafts also
still show the problem. But testing is even more work than fixing...

Please continue posting anomalies !

Re: BOARD MIGRATED : LIST OF KNOWN PROBLEMS

when posting (in Prosilver, not Aeroblue yet) there are now two small buttons under the posting, called postimage and photobucket.
both cause a small popup window and when you have selected/uploaded your image
both now paste the image URL directly into your post.

the imageshack button still wipes out your posting text, so beware.
