HL2.NET forum bugs

[Munro]

Ok chaps the skin is still underway. I've been at this for 7 hours straight now and I'm not having much luck If you can please tell me of any major problems you have with this skin I will look into it and attempt to fix the problem. So far these 'bugs' have been found and are being sorted.

• Line through santa image in top left of site
• Old default skin blue coloured pictures need updating
• Quickreply/Form colour scheme needs changing
• Bottom of avatars cut off
• Post list has larger font then normal

Please include your browser name and version if you can

I can't change my avatar.

i don't see why you need these fixed... but are you doing it HTML-style or is it thru a vBulliten thing that is built in

 

[Shuzer]

Clicking on "reply" or "edit," the layout is totally screwed up in Firebird (for me, anyway). The smilies table "bleeds" out of the main posting table

 

[ray_MAN]

Uh oh the post bug is also back. My post was just above Shuzer's and thehunter's, but they posted first.

 

[Munro]

ray_MAN what are you doing to try and change your avatar? Are you trying to upload a new avatar or link to a new one? You should be able to go through User CP>Edit Avatar>Use Custom Avatar> then either link or upload and save your changes. Does it give you an error when you try this?

Yup, same for me, also using firebird (v0.7). Made a screen of it, although the way it displays differs somewhat every time. Sometimes only part of the table is stretched too far, sometimes all of it. When I made the screen it was only a part of it.

Ok.. well, the best way to fix that is.. get a better browser :|

I can't, for the love of god see why it's doing that.

Get a better browser.. than Firebird?

That's like saying IE is a better browser.. and, oh wait, that's what you were saying :x

Edit: Sorry, I've just grown to hate IE. lol, I'm sure it works fine on some other browsers, but I only tested otherwise on IE, so I drew a conclusion

 

[Munro]

At the moment these forums only seem to work perfect in Mozilla. Which is quite scarey. I tend to use IE most of the time because I find it works with pretty much everything.

 

[thehunter1320]

I can't change my avatar.

why would you want to? :thumbs:

 

[qckbeam]

That's odd. I use firebird too, no problems at all to speak of, everything looks great!

 

[bastard_loud]

The bug where a post shows up before someone else's reply isn't gone yet.
It happened again in the Rockstar/Manhunt thread.

The smilies aren't "bleeding" out of the main reply table when you click on the reply/edit buttons?

nope, everything is as it should be

 

[Maxi]

The ranks are still ****ed up... to check it go to members list and organize it by post count... some people are prowlers when they should be Antlion Guards and such things.

 

[Maxi]

Another thing to add... if you post faster then 30 sec and get the warning, when you press back in IE, the text in the quick reply box is deleted. The previous version diddn't do this.

 

[synth]

bug! bullets from the lists are showing up outside the post area. see attachment.

you could also put more space between the avatar and the information to the right of it (name, rank, etc.)

Oh well, I can live with it

 

[azz0r]

Click the little icon next to 'Quick Reply' heh

 

[Maxi]

Thats not a bug!... its a feature!!!

 

[Sparky the Fox]

Not so much a bug as an annoyance, but why is the name field in search limited? It's one character away from letting me search for my name, and unchecking Exact Name and just typing "Sparky Fox" results in invalid user name stuff.

-_o

 

[azz0r]

postID: No-one cares = pwned

 

[Shuzer]

Noticed another bug
This applies to Firebird only (maybe others, but it doesn't occur in IE)

On the main forums selection (....net/forums/) page where it shows the latest post: if the user that last replied's name is too long, the "Go to latest post" button gets pushed out of view, or cut off. See the attachment

another thing i have noticed is with the smileys..

i remember there being a link to open a window to all the smileys but apparently that link isn't there anymore.. hmm.. maybe its just Firebird? because thats what im using..

anyone else have this problem?

edit: i was just moving the mouse pointer over the smileys window and clicked on the "more smileys link"

for me.. the link is invisible..(same colour as background) so i can't see it.. is this also happening for anyone else? i can high light the link and it becomes visible.. hmm..

perhaps changing the colour of the link can be done? ..
