Oh, isn't she pretty!

Post by Vanny » 05 Oct 2011

Well folks, after much pratting around and fiddling, we have a new forum style!

It's actually not too much different to look at from the old one, with some tweaks to make it flow a little better.

Underneath, its very very different.

The old theme was not compatible with PHPbb3.09 so i've had to update the theme in order to update the forum (TBA)

Your more likely to notice things that are MISSING rather than new, but as usual let me know where you find faults.

Oh, additionally, this style change means i'm now officially supporting FireFox, Chrome and IE9, if you see bugs or glitches in these browsers, i'll do my best to fix them. Support for IE will be dropped in 2013.

My works browser is IE6 - virtually NOTHING works well with it.
The NHS - utter cock at anything interweb.

Still, it'll be fine at home as im pretty much full time Chrome now.

Safari working OK now, am now on 5.1. All seems well on here. Still have the windows problem. Did you get my PM? I sent it when I was working through IE, which usually lets me down on here. :x

Thats a good thing and saves much scrolling through stuff you have already read a thousand times before :like:

It jumps to the last unread post, its designed like that. Like the Ted, i prefer it this way as it saves scrolling.

I've tried to turn off the submit time out, hopefully this will allow the old and infirm to write war a peace without getting binned.

Seems good in general but still faulty in UCP when trying to look at members in the group. I had hoped this was a fix for this as facility is a 'nice to have'. A reminder of the error it returns:
General Error
SQL ERROR [ mysql4 ]

Unknown column 'ug.user_id' in 'where clause' [1054]

An SQL error occurred while fetching this page. Please contact the Board Administrator if this problem persists.
It's strange because this worked OK in the earlier days of the forum?

Go have a look and see if it works now please.

There is a fault in the garage database, the members list tries to look at some data that doesn't exist, then falls over. All this data would do is tell you what people have as there No1. listed car, ie it doesn't do much, so i've chopped it out for now.
