Having style issues after the last upgrade?

[Amorous Eyes]

This seems to primarily affect the black styles but after the upgrade to v4.0.4 a few issues cropped up. I fixed a few of the obvious ones but upon closer inspections it seems there's a bigger problem.

The merger of one of the files didn't take, or at least not completely. Now it seems to be only this one file but of course it had to be a core file that'll affect the way things are displayed on the forums; posts mostly.

I dreaded this day but I know what I have to do. Which is to completely revert that file to it's original state and re-add my code afterwards. This means that in the mean-time things may look a little funky but I promise to make this as quick and painless as possible.

If any issues arise during, please post in this thread so I can try and fix it asap!



PS
Some of the addons stopped working after this upgrade but we are confident we can get them working again either via an update on their end or a fix on ours.

Addons affected: Auto Image Resize, Quote Selected Text, and others.

working on a test style to fix everything

testing large images now

It doesn't quite seem to have worked.

Also (and I realize this is a very minor nitpick) the HAL favicon is gone again. Just thought I'd mention it.

[Amorous Eyes]

Users cannot see any of the changes I'm making as I'm doing them on a test style that is only available for admins

favicon gets overwritten each update, I'll put it back

[Baerdog]

Ah, fair enough then.

[Patrick]

wuts a favcon???

[Baerdog]

OK, when you look at the address bar in your browser do you see the little icon to the left of the URL? That's a favicon. We normally have one that looks like the eye of the HAL 9000.

[Amorous Eyes]

VB 4.0.4. added its own image resizer but even disabling that doesn't make the addons work.

VB's code is messed up so I changed it so it'll resize images in posts and signatures BUT there's no built in "click to view full size" feature. So we'll have to rightclick/open image in new tab to view it full size until that gets fixed. Once people get off their ass and update their plugins we should have that again. I'm hoping soon.

Well we all appreciate the work you and Dave have been putting into the place


so thanks

[Dave]

Me? She's the main person on this one. I made a backup and she's done everything else.

[Hylian]

Yeah but you front the bill month after month and deal with us when we are at our bests and worsts so I have to include you

[Amorous Eyes]

You're welcome.

Fixed most of the glaring issues. Some addons will need updating on their part and I'll be reverting & editing more files later on.

I must say I love the favicon. Much better suited than HAL was I think.

[Dave]

The Hal thing was cute but a copyright risk.

[Covar]

is much better anyway since is us, and we are

pimp the brand.

The site looks great, but I have been compelled to wear navy blue with black recently. Should I be concerned?

[Amorous Eyes]

blip

[Covar]

Posting here rather than start a new thread. the favicon seems to have vanished and I have a blue quick reply box on the base Hal White theme.



[edit] I fail at noticing Chrome behavior.

[Amorous Eyes]

So it is.. Hang on, let me fix that

Oh, I see now in Hal Black, too. Must be because of reinstallation of the Advanced QuickReply box.

[Amorous Eyes]

Fixed.

Also affected were the toplevel menus and a few others things, should be good now.

• Diabled call to credits_legacy.css - It uses hard coded variables which override everything in the custom styles.
• Disabled Sevenfold Image resizer and put my own code back in place. - Because that one works even if it's not pretty.

HalBlack Red looks good now. Any word on when we'll be getting HalBlack Blue back?

I deleted it. People were using it? :/

[Baerdog]

Yes.

[Amorous Eyes]

Yes.

Well, shoot. VB4 fails in not letting me know how many people are using which style.
I thought it looked to dark, bordering on unreadable, so I removed it.
I can re-add it, though.

[Baerdog]

That would be excellent, thanks.

[Amorous Eyes]

That would be excellent, thanks.

Added Hal Black (Blue) style.

I changed the colors around a bit which I think improves readability.
I have one (minor) issue left with it but I doubt you'll notice it. :) Nevermind; fixed.

[Baerdog]

Weee! Thank you very much.

[Amorous Eyes]

Weee! Thank you very much.

Anytime. Now rep me, bitch!
