TLA skin - updated

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.
Wijitmaker
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:

Mark all posts as read

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.
Lorian
You mean the favicon has changed to a standard page tab? I still have the WFG logo...
Wijitmaker
Deacon you need to go to: Tools => Options => Privacy => Cache => Clear

That should get you the favicon back where it should be thumbsup.gif

I use Mozilla, but the problem seems to be fixed.

"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. umm.gif
Wijitmaker
could you post a link to that page, I can't figure out how you get to it to trouble shoot it tongue.gif

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.
Wijitmaker
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 thumbsup.gif

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).
prefect
*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.
Wijitmaker
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?
prefect
I've just checked, and it works in the TLA skin. The only one that's broken is the 0 A.D. skin.
Wijitmaker
Ok, thanks - looks like I'll have to start from scratch on that bad boy. Any requests for a 0 A.D. theme rework while I'm at it?
Lorian
Noticed a small problem with the online list, if there is a search engine indexing the site (just Google?) then it adds a space after the name between that and the colon:

Quacker: Google.com : Dnas

The polls are on the left only, atleast for the 0AD skin.

It keeps showing all forums as unread, and will only go away when I go through every forum and hit mark all as read, when it used to be that if I just left the site and checked back later it would be marked as read.
Lorian
I think the new way is much better, before, when I had to go and hadn't finished reading all the posts I had to open all the forums in new tabs then leave it until I cam back, now I can just quit the browser.

Please, do not change it
