Re: Browser testing.

August 16, 2008 by feathermonkey

Well I know I seem to be keeping this one alive on my own but hopefully some of this helping this posting stuff is doing some really strange stuff occasionally.

Thought I had noticed another post around here in regards to something similar with FF and printing the formatting code or not honouring it.

But here is the latest one

Should be this how it ended up after just opening FF and clicking edit and saving. http://suseunbound.lefora.com/2008/08/16/mass-rename-of-files/#post845574

In fact I had to open this post in FF as it cropped it after the first white space it seems to be parsing "<>=" to.

Just a FYI

Perhaps this shows it better
http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3230/2713868983_e5bbdde2ea_o.png here I added the post from konqueror all the formatting has gone.

As soon as opened FF and opened the edit the format was sorted, just save and the post is as it should be.

OK this has done something really strange with the last post it is missing.....

As for changing I agree as I've not really seen the black page so can't really answer(Sort of black on adding widget but I suspect again opacity again). I also don't think changing it will make konqueror honour the opacity, think this maybe one for KDE I'll test with kde4.1 see if this honours the opacity, if not I'll bug report it to them.

Thankyou Cookies for looking into this, if I don't post back KDE4.1's konqueror hasn't fixed the opacity problem and I'll bug report it to them

And is showing this in the edit window, http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3150/2713697198_bc43aa0dee_o.png

Still it is missing bits ..."I'll bug report it to them" http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3044/2712897631_92d99e15d3_o.png I've tried to fix this post several times last attempt.

As soon as opened this with FF to fix it all I needed to do was save it.

I agree Konqueror doesn't honour opacity, noticed this from the new/old posts css. I think some of the other bits maybe related to changing editor I noticed yesterday the editor sometimes takes a while to load and for a second it shows the html formatting(i,e.

). I'm thinking something similar with the avatars though that really is quite random. Something seems to be taking some time, as to what/why it places avatar pics in the wrong place sometimes

A FYI in regards to Konq we have members also relaying that in registering they're getting a black page http://suseunbound.lefora.com/2008/07/17/this-forum-and-konqueror/

I appreciate as you said it is a minor browser but thought you may like to know. I do get konqueror hanging in trying to add the html widget though not sure if its related.

Edit it seems by using a different browser identification it is solving it, still to check properly.

Re: Mod/Admins ONLY?

July 14, 2008 by feathermonkey

iirc this isn't possible you have to create another forum which is invites only at least that's what we've done.

Re: I can't delete posts in my forum

July 8, 2008 by feathermonkey

We have the same problem at http://suseunbound.lefora.com/forum/ if you delete a single post that is not a top post, if tells you if you leave the page it will be deleted, yet it isn't.

If you remove the top post it will delete the whole thread though.

Re: How can i change the color of our ADMIN and MODs?

July 7, 2008 by feathermonkey

Use firebug inspect the element(By hovering over, and clicking) make sure you're viewing css then copy the relevant bit and add the css rule, save done..

With firebug you can edit the value to see an on the fly change, iirc this will be part of a{}
Checking briefly I seem to have this rule.

a {
color:#73BA25;
}

This will change all plain links iirc though to this colour. But many other places can be changed to accommodate it. I suggest you look at some css tuts, I'm far from the best person to be giving advice but by inspecting with firebug it becomes very easy(Thanks for the hint on this Chief).

Using the CSS as replied to modifying username colour ?

Re: Hacking your CSS!

It is possible by using the css. This thread has all the info needed use the firebug extension hunt down the bit you need and add the css rule.

So in the above posts before clicking edit both where showing in thread one url, one as upload, they do things on edit.

Url stops showing in thread.

Upload dissapears.

Re: Browser testing.

July 5, 2008 by feathermonkey

As you can see it has now turned into a url this is FF3

So now lets try upload just a small png green sqr called swab.png

click edit it goes.

Just noticed that pic does contain it, it has swapped bozo's avatar with swerdna.

Re: Browser testing.

Konqeror 3.5.9 I can also test on Kde 4 but not sure that's ready yet or would be worth while.

http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3037/2624756908_eaf8fb6708_o.png

As for url hopefully this may show, this pic shows what I mean that is showing the default pink for gonzo yet there should be an avatar. I accept your point, in regards to konqueror, but this seems strange. I'm afraid it isn't really consistent either whilst typing this I've been trying to replicate it yet can't, it also swaps avatars in thread.

I'll concede it is a minor point but seems a little unexplainable and random.

As for the other hopefully I can show with some posts, as typing this I've told it to show in thread.

Click edit.

Re: Custom HTML

There's a widget called custom html.

I was inspired to try add a custom html widget and post it in works fine(Used chatango).

PM's and multiple delete

July 4, 2008 by feathermonkey

Is it possible in the future to have a multiple delete on PM's i.e a check box in mailbox=> Sent/Inbox view where top checkbox selects all or selecting a few with delete, deletes marked? Also maybe an option not to save to sent.

Also perhaps a report option for users that reports a post to admins? Just a couple of ideas really, and thanks guys for giving us the ability to host forums with out the hassle.

Browser testing.

July 3, 2008 by feathermonkey

I was just tweaking the css, and I noticed a couple of things with konqueror/kde browser the avatars do some strange jumping as in the wrong avatar goes in the wrong box, or there is the default no avatar where there is one. This is the little ones in Recently Online.

Also I just used the embed pic which didn't work, with konqueror either.

Thought you might like to know.

Also after embedding the picture I didn't have a way of removing it. Also when I use a url if editing afterwards it also removes the in line pic leaving just the url. To reshow in post you have to re-add the url for the pic. This happens on FF to.
