No forum drop-down menus on top of page?

Esel

These are missing at the moment!

Working for me and i am on IE.

Ruu_Old

Not working for me OP, I'm on Firefox 1.5.0.6 and tried it on IE6 also, no change.

hmm.Odd.I wonder what the cause is.It is definitely working for me on IE6.Maybe its just my 2 gig line in Leitrim!:p

GAAman

Nor for me on ff 1.5.0.6

Esel

I'm also using FF 1.5.0.6, and Cloud.

edit: tried IE - same.

Ruu_Old

Hmm I switched over to pie and the menu is fine, I switch back to the www and it went again, pie.

R0ot

Dave!

there's always something...

it's not working for me either. firefox.

ferdi

Pocari Sweat

Wishbone Ash

They're just after disappearing on me too!!!!

Peace

FF 1.5.0.6 Menus missing!

Same in IE 7.0.5112

Mountjoy Mugger

pie not working either. IE6.02

Zillah

Navigating without those menus is downright upsetting.

Pythia

Gone for me on IE.

Karl Hungus

Not working here either.

My subbed list! My beautiful subbed list! :eek:

Ruu_Old

Still all good on pie, no menu on www, using FF 1.5.0.6.

Funnily, I thought maximising the window would work. Silly silly me.

Anyway, I'm sure it's something to do with Cloud's ongoing reshuffle of the DHTML menu and the Categories. Nothing permanent. Give it until lunchtime and it will all be hunky-dory.

Though for some reason, this thread will be going onto it's 5th page.

Bard

They were gone all day but just reappeared JUST THIS MINUTE for me...

Someone's obviously playing around with their templates/code/dhtml/bits...

Peace

Tis back now... FF 1.5.0.6

There was a small bug in the PHP that output the new 'adverts.ie' category to the javascript navigation. Fixed now.

I really hate that menu - can we trade it in daddy cloud?

Is there a need for the shop category now that the adverts.ie one is there?

Dave!

Drop-down menu at top is back, but the one in the bottom-right is gone now! :mad:

Interaction is still in that list, I guess it could be moved under Biz.

Quite a nice menu when it works though. I've been looking for a menu solution for a site I'm working on atm, and Milonic's the best I've found.

But hey - if anyone knows something better.. give us a shout

So people do actually use it It's quite HTML heavy, let's see who else complains...

tSubh Dearg

I use it too!

It's really handy when you get to the bottom of a page for going back to the forum. It's just a little annoying having to scroll back up to the top to get the link.

Peace

WTF, there wa a menu at the bottom of the page? Jasus.... eyes open in future lad.

morgana

Gone on Opera 9.1 too (regardless of what you set it to identify as) - but I think that's an Opera issue though - come to think of it - now the adverts banner is completely gone as well. If interested I can post error messages ..
Oh and I HATE not having the menu bar on top - my subbed list is so essential ... for that issue alone I am thinking of permanently switching to Firefox

Yeah when you read a thread to the bottom, then you can just click "go", and you're back in the forum, rather than having to scroll all the way back to the top

Exactly! It's just so handy. But if we're the only ones using I suppose I could go back to scrolling up to the top of the page.

Cloud

No it's fine, back again.

hullaballoo

I always use the drop-down at the bottom because private fora appear in it too whereas with the DHTML one, you have to click the category to get them.

Edit: Cheers Cloud!

woohoo, nice to see I'm important! It musta been that 5er subscription I paid 2 months ago... you're living in hope that I'll send some more big bucks your way, isn't that why you're appeasing me Cloud?

Goodshape

Never knew there was a drop down list at the bottom.. that's actually quite handy

Thank you!

Gone again here.

Regenerating. Knocked 10k off the size.

If you're trying to give boards a shave how about removing the inline css styles from each page's html output? Is it possible to have a seperate stylesheet on VB that can be cached by browsers - or are the stylesheets dynamically loaded? Or are you already doing that? I could have sworn I saw inline css ten minutes ago.

Cloud

Yep did that, the problem we were having was that the CSS files have to reside on two servers, so when they are statically saved they have to be copied to the other server. I've added a cronjob in case we forget to copy them, runs every hour.

CuLT

Still gone for me in both IE and firefox, not cached pages.

Cloud

As mentioned in another thread we are still testing turning on and off features on statler. Try using porkpie.

Karl Hungus

Gone again.

Cloud

WHO-wyne-RRRRRR!

CuLT

Sexeh. cheers.

Vexorg

KH, stop trying to increase your post count... its just testing to get a general improvement.

So shush and go back polishing those mod titles.

Could the stars in the subbed menu be part of the problem? I seem to recall this being the problem for one of the times boards was slowed down drastically. That resulted in the stars being removed from all other dropdowns bar the subbed.

Maybe now that there are so many more users, and maybe each person has a large subbed list - the effect is coming about again.

Goodshape

The italicised 'subbed' and 'adverts' looks a bit naff imo...

was 'subbed' always italic? I forget.. looks a bit different anyway.. is that a smaller font size or something? what's going on?

and are they ever going to rerun Brisco County Jr.? ...I'd like that... it was a good show.


are those my feet?

Dave!

Right I don't think we need to be postin sayin "it's on now", "it's off now" all the time -- at least not today, since they said they're testing sh*t! Let's just leave the boyos to work it out

ps. do I get brownie points for calming the rabble?
