Gibsonm Posted December 24, 2017 Share Posted December 24, 2017 Looks like a new version of SB Pro PE and the forum in the one week? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Ssnake Posted December 24, 2017 Members Share Posted December 24, 2017 Sean mentioned that he wanted to so "some server maintenance". That may have been part of it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Splash Posted December 24, 2017 Share Posted December 24, 2017 Is anyone else having an issue where the "Awards" tag certain posters use overlaps the content of their posts in Chrome? I checked with IE and don't have the issue there. (Windows 7). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gibsonm Posted December 24, 2017 Author Share Posted December 24, 2017 Some of the Profile Images / Avatars seem to have changed too - at least in Firefox 57.0.2 (64 bit). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Sean Posted December 24, 2017 Administrators Share Posted December 24, 2017 I upgraded all the forum software yesterday/today. The awards can overlap with a signature but should not show up over the top of a post. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gibsonm Posted December 24, 2017 Author Share Posted December 24, 2017 They seem to be right aligned now. They used to be centred. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Splash Posted December 24, 2017 Share Posted December 24, 2017 When viewing the forums as a guest -- without logging in -- the box containing the awards overlaps the text. Moving them to right-align has lessened the problem. When logged in, they just overlap the sigs (which aren't there when viewing as a guest).  0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gibsonm Posted December 24, 2017 Author Share Posted December 24, 2017 I see this when logged in as me (not guest): Â Â 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Splash Posted December 24, 2017 Share Posted December 24, 2017 (edited) I see the same when logging in with Internet Explorer (which I don't typically use). Must be a Chrome thing. In Chrome the Awards box overlaps the last element in the post. When logged in, that's the sig (if the user has one). If logged out, or the user has no sig, the Awards box overlaps the post text. Edited December 24, 2017 by Splash 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Homer Posted December 25, 2017 Share Posted December 25, 2017 Profile photo generation from first letter of the member's name has to go. Too Googlely.  Splash, I made a change sigs which hopefully will help. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The issue remains unchanged for me in Chrome. Since there are no other complaints about this, maybe it's a personal settings issue I need to investigate. I'm not seeing it on other sites, though.  For me, whether logged-in or viewing as a guest, the Awards box (with icons flush-right) overlaps the last element in each post. Aside from being kind of fugly, it does create a problem with attached files.  If the last element is a sig, it's usually no big deal as the sigs are on the left and the awards icons on the right. A thin, white border overlaps the sig image, though.  If the poster has no sig, and the only element is his post text, the icon box overlaps that text. This is not usually a big deal, but the left white border of the box bisects the first letter in each line, and when the poster writes enough to fill one or two lines at my resolution, the end of the line of text is behind the icons.  If the poster adds an attachment, the icon box overlaps that attachment. This is a big deal in the case below, for example, where I cannot click through the Awards icon box to reach the attached test-1.sce file.  I agree players should be proud of having CO'ed multiplayer events, yes. But why not make those awards icons like the sigs: unviewable when not logged in and hideable when logged in?  0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gibsonm Posted December 30, 2017 Author Share Posted December 30, 2017 Soory for another challenge, but ....  I'm trying to create a "poll" but despite:  1. Giving the post a title  2. Providing content  3. Giving the poll a question  4. Adding possible responses  It wont create the post.  I don't want to risk creating multiple duplicates so I'll stop now and just create a post without the question, but it would be nice to know what I'm doing wrong. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gibsonm Posted December 30, 2017 Author Share Posted December 30, 2017 I removed the Poll questions and can't create a post at all now - thought the maintenance period was in a couple of days time? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Sean Posted December 30, 2017 Administrators Share Posted December 30, 2017 Give it half an hour, then try the poll again. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrators Sean Posted January 1, 2018 Administrators Share Posted January 1, 2018 OK - I'll work on this tuesday night, hopefully I'll be able to get it all worked out then. Until then, please be patient. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gibsonm Posted January 1, 2018 Author Share Posted January 1, 2018 Thanks, I know its on your "To Do" list. Â Happy to wait for the advice that the maintenance is complete. I hope you can remove the broken ones (lots of people seem to have tried to look at them and hopefully they aren't too frustrated). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
