    Nope, that looks pretty screwed in IE 6.0

    SeaMonkey doesn't like it much either. It seems that this only works properly in Firefox and Opera. Hmmmmmm. I'll attach an image in a minute when I have a computer that has a mouse because the "attachments" link isn't hypertext so i can't select it with TAB. Yes. This university computer has no mouse. For no apparent reason. But I can manage. Hehehe.

    I'm waiting to see if anyone responds on the Lussumo forum before I start fiddling. But I know for a fact, it's to do with the way lists are rendered - so it shouldn't be too hard to hunt down.

    BTW, I am fiddling with the overall design at the moment, making it fixed width.

    Apart from the post text, that is being screwed up by AutoP, everything looks good in IE 6.0 and Firefox.

    I've got some slight rendering issues with Ie 7.0 too. I'll work on that tomorrow.

    Right,

    E-mail notification is now working. You can subscribe to any discussion, or any entire category. On top of that, in your account preferences, you can also just select to be told whenever a discussion you're in gets a comment, you get told.

    I've also added a "Packer". Which combines all the Js and CSS files of all the add-ons (33 and counting) into a singular file. This should minimize the number of HTTP connections and should speed things up. The downside is it might break things, so I need to test things like the attachments etc.

    Turns out the "Packer" wasn't installed, and in fact involves editing source code - which I set out not to do.

    For the moment, the only outstanding bugs are:

    - Rendering in IE 6.0

    - Uploading images as an account picture don't scale particularly well, I'm going to modify it later.

    I've just modified the account pictures page. Now when you upload an image it's no longer cropped to fit 280x200. It can be any height you like, just proportionally resized to a 280 width.

    It should work - the whispered posts just stay inline to the topic. Anyone else viewing it won't see what's above. Try logging out and you'll see what I mean :)

    I've got it, I thought my whisper would be in pink, but it's the reply that's pink. Yours says whisper back.

    I've just added "friendly urls". Which helps with SEO etc. However, this is known to break a few add-ons. Not sure which. So If you notice anything going wrong, let me know!

    Hello,

    New forum looks nice and clean! 8)

    I don't seem to be able to upload a user icon - get a couple of errors. Edit: oh, it worked; but errors appeared straight after uploading.

    And I couldn't see how to start a new topic.

    Thanks.

    Hi Eyes Open :)

    I'm seeing a user icon here, but if you're getting errors - I'd like to know what they are, so perhaps just copy and paste them in here.

    To start a new topic, just click the "start a new discussion" on the left hand side. In Vanilla, Topics are Discussions and Posts are Comments.

    Still can't see link.
    Thinks there must be an issue with his new accounts permissions or something.
    Does a search for the word 'start' just to be sure...

    Oh, you mean that big red link! :D

    Thanks.

    I had a look through the coding and I think I found a bug in the code I modified this morning. It would only bring up an error if you didn't have a picture prior to uploading.

    Edit:

    Seeing your error message, yes 100% I fixed the bug :) Thanks for spotting it!

    It just did it to me again, even though I'd uploaded a picture.

    Hmm. Maybe I hadn't uploaded the changes when I put that. It can't see how it could not be working now.

    I've turned off admin approval - it's just e-mail authentication for the moment.

    I'm trying to remember what privileges you have - you can edit and delete posts and that's about it I think. Until we eventually start getting a spam problem, I can't think of anything! Just enjoy yourself :)
