Software Updates

[Marty]

I'm planning a software update over the next few days. IF there are problems we may be down for a bit, but hopefully it will go smoothly. We should gain some cool new functionalities in the process!

:cheer:

What kind of new things are you talkin about?

 

[Marty]

nothing too drastic. The latest version of the forum software has few enhancements.. interactive profiles is pretty cool...sort of like facebook... there is some anti spam functionality too which will come in very handy. Wait & see

Fatal error: Call to undefined function: fetch_avatar_from_userinfo() in /home/gecko/public_html/community/includes/class_userprofile.php on line 197

Marty, I have problems with PM, it's for updating?

 

[Marty]

Something got screwed up with the update...hopefully we will solve this

 

[Marty]

OK, should work now

 

[Marty]

Cool thing is that now you can search and sort your private messages...go to the bottom of your PMs.

Has anyone else found that the forums don't "fit to the screen" way they used to? In the last few days, I find myself having to scroll over to the right slightly to read the cut off parts of posts. They always used to size to whatever screen size I was using. I think I've noticed it both on a smaller laptop (for sure) and a larger desktop (I'm pretty sure). Did something change during the update? Just a minor inconvenience.

Hm... I'm using a 24" screen fits here . Is it a particular page or all the pages? Go to the bottom and check if switching style helps. Try gecko fixed.

Sorry, for the delay. "Gecko fixed" is what I'm set at, and I do still have to scroll across slightly to see all the content on my small laptop. Seems to be all forums. At home on the larger screen there's no problem. It's not a big deal. It just always fit without scrolling until recently.

There's one element that breaks the layout. I'll work on it when I have a few minutes

Marty, I am having the same problem on my home PC, having to scroll to the right to read all pages and it is on "gecko fixed".

Yeah I know. Not critical, but will try to get to it soon.
