All fixed now, thanks!! Yes, I think I had a custom avatar before but dumped it, as you say.

Like the new look.
I use the keyboard to scroll down, usually the space bar (page down).
Unfortunately a 'page' seems to include the section covered by the floating title bar?

New look is very slick. Unfortunately the new menu system at the top doesn't work with touch.

I'm using the old skin but now when I go to "advanced search" it jumps to the new skin & it doesn't seem to work properly..

I can't seem to do a "vanity search" which is a great way of finding if someone's quoted you, so you can reply to them.

I guarantee that if this post is responded to tomorrow, I'll have trouble finding it without that function, because I never venture to this neck of the woods.

The Adverts.ie link on the menu bar stopped working some time yesterday late afternoon/evening...

Mouseover for subcategories:

New skin (beta) / Not Working, does nothing, not click-able (missing a class I think?)

Old White default style / Still Working fine

Using: Firefox 13.0.1

Thanks OneIdea,

We'll have this looked at.

Like it on the laptop but consistently crashed dolphin hd on my android.. Stopped loading page at 75% and then the entire browser would crash so I changed back to the old one.

This is for the desktop version.

Screenshot attached.

As my UID is 275317 I assume https://avatar.b-static.net/X.gif gives the avatar of the user with UID X. For Denerick, who also doesn't have an avatar, an image does come up:



So perhaps there's a small bug in the .gif generation code. I won't change any of my avatar settings in the near future, if you want to play around with it!

I'm getting the same as Eliot above whenever I do a search (although currently on the Grey skin). I also had a custom avatar months ago.

Here's the XML file if that helps:

You should be fixed now, I'm on my way to look at the underlying issue at the moment.

Thanks

Issue: How about a feature / option to allow sub-categories to open when you hover the mouse pointer over them?

for example, if I move the pointer to 'Rec' all the categories drop down, but I have to click the arrow to expand the motoring category.
I would like an option for the sub category to drop down when I hover over.

Other than that I like the new look

Begrudgingly switched to the new one, and it's starting to grow on me (though I do still prefer the old forum name drop-downs).

Anyway, I haven't read the whole thread so unsure if this is covered already or not, but...


Type: Bug
Issue: Header menu bar scrolls down with the page
Browser & OS: Firefox (whatever the latest version is)
Screen Resolution: Not 100% sure, but don't think it's relevant.


Pretty much, the menu bar scrolling down with you as you scroll the page takes up a lot of space and I hate it, so I turned it off on my profile and all was good in the world.

However, every time I return to boards (after logging out and back in again), despite the scrolling option still being turned off in my profile, the menu bar reverts to scrolling down with me. To put it back to normal (non-scrolling), I have to change the setting back to allowing it to scroll, save the setting, and then go back and turn it off again.


Then it's fine, until I log back out and log in again (in which case it goes back to scrolling down with me, and I've to repeat the above).

Morning,

Type: Other
Issue: When trying to open a private forum (OTG) from a bookmark, being logged out, I'm getting the following error message


Browser & OS: IE8 running on XP service pack 3
Screen Resolution: unknown

I can log in fine by going to the home page or clicking the log in (top right), but then I've got to navigate through the menus to find the forum.

Not a major issue, but I thought I'd bring it to your attention.

Cheers.

Well I don't really know what version I have (it usually just automatically updates itself). Not sure if it's been fixed or if I'm just lucky, but it's not scrolling down with me since logging in this morning...
