See any problems with the new forum upgrade? Report them here. ;)

(... aha, that's one: the "thumbs-up" emoticon doesn't work)


Current TODO:
  • Missing emoticons
  • Re-apply colored names mod

After I look at a thread it still says its unread even after I visit the site again, and I dont see the mark topic as read option anywhere.

Hmm, thats very strange it seems to be working fine for me. What browser are you using?

Try hitting this to start fresh, and lemme know if it still gives you problems:

Also, the custom icon symbol for the forums is missing now...the little sign for fire...

Hard to get this across, indeed. I am sitting here looking atmy tabs (firefox), and right in front of the title of the page, is a little standard icon where the Fire symbol was.

Is that good enough? If not, I can take a screenshot and circle it.

You mean the favicon has changed to a standard page tab? I still have the WFG logo...

Deacon you need to go to: Tools => Options => Privacy => Cache => Clear

That should get you the favicon back where it should be ;)

"Last Post by:" link on the "View Last Posts" page is still broken. It takes the user to the last page in the thread, but does not take the user to the last post as it should. ;)

I have the same (or a similar) problem as Michael (with Konqueror, haven't tried with other browsers), maybe this additional info can help track it down:

The listing of threads of a forum has a little icon next to the name of threads with new posts. When you click on this icon, it's supposed to take you to the first unread post of that thread. This works with the WFG style (the blue one), but it doesn't work in the 0 A.D. style. In that style, it does take you to the correct page of the thread, but the browser won't jump to the first unread post. So my guess would be that the anchor tags are wrong somehow.

Ah, ok I see what you guys mean. Hmm, very strange. I hope it isn't something deep within the skin code, and might be something easy to fix (easy!? ha!). I'll look into it ;)

Edit: well, it doesn't look like its anything obvious. So, its probably something different at a deeper level in php variable stuff that I have little to no knowledge in. I'll investigate further when I have some more time - or start the skin from scratch (it has some other wierd bugs that I'm not to fond of - and I am currently just finding it just plain ugly in general at the moment).

*bump*

Indeed, with the blueish WFG style, the thread HTML contains tags like


<a name="entry166687"></a>


And this tag is simply missing from the 0 A.D. skin.

Yeah, I'm not sure why either because the html quick tags are exactly the same in both skins. So it must be something in what those quick tags actually do, but I haven't figured out where that is to look and see... Have you tried it in the TLA skin?
