Vbulletin upgrade

[Ironside]

Am I the only one that currently have a large empty space before a starting quote, that also messes up smilies and spoilers? Been having these for a few days now.

[TosaInu]

Hello Ironside,

I guess so. Do you have a picture and info on your browser?

[Ironside]

I'm using Internet Explorer 8.

This extra space is on all posts that start with a qoute. All other quotes are normal. The weird stuff on the side=sloppy paint use.

I thought it have to do with quotes at first but it seens that the occational smilies not moving with spoiler is unrelated.

I'm using Firefox and I'm getting the same problem, so it's not a browser issue.

Quickquote.

Quickquote.

Adv quote.

Hello,

I use IE, FireFox and Chrome. I haven't seen it yet, neither on Default nor the Guild skin. I'll try another account.

[TosaInu]

The LDM is working again. It is used to create links to files and is also used to store files for PBM. There are some categories already, you can PM me when you feel something is missing. https://forums.totalwar.org/vb/local_links.php

[Ironside]

Looks fixed now. Whatever you did worked.

That includes the non moving smilies as well.

Edit: And now both bugs are back, wierd. I guess they're related then.

[TosaInu]

Hello Ironside,

Such bug/no bug thing can drive us crazy. :( Have you tried clearing your cache?

Actually, I noticed the same yesterday using IE on my home computer. Firefox did not have this problem, nor does my laptop with either browser.

[Ibn-Khaldun]

I would like to mention that when using TheGuild skin I don't see the time when someone made a post in Social Group discussions.
Background and text have the same color.

[Ironside]

I think I got it, it get messed up by the compatible(? directly translated) view function for viewing old pages. It should be off to view the org properly.

[TosaInu]

Hello Ironside, that's a function of your browser?

True Ibn-Khaldun. The ones in the PM box aren't right either. Many icons are in PNG format now, so old icons will have to be converted to work too.

I've had this screen pop up twice today while viewing the forums:



I'm using IE 8. It is a sad day when the Org is labeled "unsafe".

Also, since the forum upgrade, my antivirus (Avira Antivir) pops up with warnings of security threats 3-4 times a day. Just thought I'd mention this.

[Ironside]

Yes. Evilly placed next to the update button, so you have a tendency to accidently activate the function. Did it again on another page when it occured to me.

Bad commercials I think, had a period of a few days after the update were AVG started to warn occationally at the org.

Edit: Since I got a warning just now, it warns about a rogue scanner.

I've get these when I'm using IE at college. I've had them for ages, and I've raised the issue before. The problem is a particularly ugly advert which pops up on the screen pretending to be Windows Explorer that spontaneously does a "VIRUS SCAN" and finds a horror story of "viruses", "Trojans"etc. Naturally, it's all bunk, similar to the likes of Malware Defender. I've never had them appear with Firefox or Chrome, so that's probably your best bet.

[Gregoshi]

I figured it was an advert with the antivirus warnings, but the red screen was something very new (yesterday was the first). The red screen has come up once again today, but seeing it is sporatic, it too is probably advert related. I didn't want to make any assumptions though. The rash of security alerts I've been getting seems to have jumped significantly after the upgrade. Therefore, I report it here and let Tosa determine if it is upgrade related.

[TosaInu]

This website has been reported to Microsoft?

There are ads here and there have been less nice ones, a company starts fine, and then throws in annoying banners. But I'm having doubts about IE. It's doing this for sites I know to be 100% secure.

[Joooray]

I don't know if it just me, but recently (today) the threads have a tendency to not fit onto screen, just a little as if there was too big a picture posted somewhere.

[TosaInu]

Well spotted Joooray. We got a new template glitch with todays upgrade.

[Sasaki Kojiro]

The "breeze" skin doesn't seem to work anymore either, maybe it's related.

[pevergreen]

Yeah, on the Guild skin, theres a bit of a white gap to the left of everything.

[Husar]

Hah, and i thought it was because I'm on Loonix (Linux, for those not familiar with my silly jokes).

[Beskar]

I get it, because the thing you associate with Linux, you also associate with the Loo?

[Husar]

More like loons, but now I guess I'm one myself, installed it(Ubuntu) on the laptop after MS told me my free MSDNAA copy of Windows 7 only works on one PC, and it will stay on the gaming PC.
It's quite nice so far I must say, installation is almost easier than in Windows now, quite different from what I've seen years ago.

Sorry to nag Tosa, but the page being too wide for the screen is getting on my nerves. No matter how big I make the screen resolution, or how big or small I make the window, the page insists on being just too wide.

He's working on it; that was a "surprise(!)" -and unintended - upgrade 'feature'.

[Tellos Athenaios]

In my experience that typically occurs because the CSS width property is set in percent and it gets rounded. You can (usually) work around it with min-width and max-width. Alternatively of course, you can check that padding and margins do add up to 100%.
