Seems in "Nual" the text in the posts is the same color as the background! Sneaky hidden posts.
Looks like Rebel Alliance has the same issue. May be a problem with a few of them. :)
Yeah, and finding the correct font color thing to change is a bitch.
There was a similar problem with the post/cancel/etc buttons on Coruscant Night yesterday, but it seems like some eagle-eyed admin has already spotted that and fixed it. Thanks, whoever that was!
Use Chrome/Firefox and inspect the item, Holly. It will tell you what part of the styleset it's in.
The post text color is postbit_color
Thank you :)
edit: adjusted the font color on the obiwan style so it's at least readable
I adjusted the text colors on most of the styles. They should be legible now. If I missed something, please highlight the thing and take a screenshot.
I'm using the Obiwan style, and when I go to Community > Groups, and then pick a group, the various posts there are white-on-white, making them completely unreadable without highlighting the body of text.
I'll crack open the laptop and fix that today.
I am also working on the status icons for obi wan, so that will be finished.
edit: obiwan style is pretty much done. I'll probably make the banner fancier but for now it'll do.
I had a browser crash, then it came back and when I change accounts, the style set that's saved for each account doesn't register. Rather, whatever style sheet I was on is applied to any account that I switch to.
Clear your cookies, and don't use the drop down list at the bottom to switch style sheets as that overrides your settings choice and in my experience affects the browser so it doesn't matter what name you sign in as, you'll be stuck on that style.
got it, thanks!
I don't know if this is a style thing or not, but when I'm trying to add people as friends and the auto-complete drop down appears when using the Coruscant Night theme, there's a "sweet spot" you have to click in order for it to fill the name in for you. Click to far to the right, and nothing happens; click to far to the left and it activates the hyperlink over the person's name... which for some reason takes you back to the front page.
Maybe the "click here" box is a fixed width, and on other styles the font is wider or something? Not a game-breaking thing by any means, but it's more than a smidge frustrating.
Which browser are you using?
Firefox mostly, though I'm 90% sure I've had the issue in Chrome as well using a different machine.
I wasn't able to replicate the issue in chrome. Can you send me a screenshot so I can better test it?
...you want screenshots of me clicking different parts of a drop-down box?
Edit:
Sorry, it just strikes me as a logistically difficult request to satisfy. I'm gonna be sat there clicking at the thing, and when I stumble across the sweet spot that makes it go all wonky, it'll have loaded the front page and will thus be too late to take a screenshot. :uhoh
Take a screenshot. Make a box where it says "good" and another one where it says "wonky" so I can see the good box from the wonky one.
Enclave Style:
In Settings in the sidebar if you are a group mod there is a Moderation section with some drop down lists. These are unreadable, just light cream text on white background.
The background of the Enclave style for announcements makes them similarly unreadable.
I'm quite certain that I fixed the announcements issue, but not so sure on the dropdown.
So far I've tweaked a few things for the Alliance and Jedi sets, including:
- Fixed the post background for group posts
- Updated the quick reply box for the Alliance set.
- Added new/old post icons for the main forum page in the Sith set
To do:
- Fill in the rest of the buttons and icons for the Sith set
-Fix the group setups for the Imperial set
-Fix the quick reply for the Imperial set
-Fix the activity stream for the Imperial set
If anyone sees anything else, let me know.
Looked over the styles, most of them look good. :D Just a few are ...lacking.
Endor, Black Sun - very similar and no unique features to them.
Deathstar - no Deathstar banner anymore, it's just a slight variation on the basic dark.
WoD - never got finished with unique header or footer
The Circle - supposed to have rotating banner of members, now doesn't really matter as the Circle effectively doesn't exist anymore. I could repurpose this for Eleutheria, maybe.
Yeah, I stopped doing work on stylesets when things began to solidify about the move to vB5. I really don't want to go through the process twice, so I've stopped working on the Sith set and the others that I'd been fixing.
Makes sense :)
The Sith style broke:

I'll look into these tomorrow.
The dropdown menu is fixed.
:eee thanks!!! :D

I've closed the Sith style for now until I can make image files for the buttons/etc.
Sith style is active again. Hopefully all of the buttons are fixed.
I dont' know if it's a style thing, but the Skype icon seems to be gone. Instead of a little image it's a big long string of text, and it's a little annoying. :p
Yeah I've noticed that as well. I'll check on it and a few other things when i get home.
I don't think it's anything that I can fix. It says that the service is unavailable, so I'm not sure if it's on our end or on Skype's end *shrug* Either way, I'm gonna go ahead and nix it from my profile, since I never use Skype anymore as it is, heh.
Not necessarily something that's 'broken', however I've noticed on a couple of styles the 'Locked Thread' icon is set to the vBulletin default instead of matching all the other icons that have been tailored for their respective theme. I've noticed this in the 'Basic - Dark' theme (pic attached), several others also have the same problem.
Attachment 2875
EDIT: just noticed the 'Black Sun' theme has several icons that are just set to vBulletin default clashing with the theme-specific icons.
Yeah, I'm piece-meal converting icons to their style specific looks, so there's gonna be a few clashes for a little bit :) The one that you're talking about isn't necessarily the locked-thread icon, but the locked-thread-that-you've-posted-in icon. I'm gradually getting them all done, and should have the basic dark finished by tomorrow evening, and the Sith style done by Monday evening. Hopefully.
I have also started tooling about with fixed width, so the Sith and Jedi styles are now as such. In the case of the Jedi style, I need to fix the background so that it doesn't tile.
I'm of the mind I'd like to be able to control text width via window width myself. I tend to run some sites narrower than others to speed up reading.
Most of it is me experimenting with new things that I'm figuring out. It's not permanent :)
Plans for tomorrow:
- make F/W Enclave style
- finish buttons and icons for Basic Light
- finish buttons and icons for Basic Dark
- start on new Default style
- overhaul Black Sun and make it more unique
- touch up Endor to make it feel more like the forest moon
- build buttons and icons for the Coruscant Night style
Things to Consider!
There are a few styles that I'm not sure we need so much anymore, so I want to propose either deleting them or switching their motif.
Nual - Delete or???
Cloud City - revamp into the Cizerack style?
Empire - roll into the Death Star style so that it is our official Imperial style?
Myth - Delete or???
Myth
I loved old nual. If we can bring that back to it's scummy glory I'd use it more.
Totally cool with a cizerack style as well, and merging death star into a single imperial style is nice.
Myth I don't think we need anymore.
Myth is a cool styleset, even if what it was inspired by is defunct (for now...???). If it's not hurting anyone I'd just keep it. I use it for a character or two.
I've no problems keeping styles for touching up, but those will probably be towards the end of the line in terms of the list, hehe.
As far as Nual, I can have a try at recreated something as close as possible to what it used to be, but no promises :)
The new Black Sun is essentially done. If anyone comes across anything broken with it, send a note my way so I can fix it.
So bold and vibrant. Captures the grungy Space Vegas vibe beautifully. :D
I absolutely love the new black sun style, oh man.
Looks nice - however on the 'Profile' page the info on the lower left hand side when you scroll down is unreadable (white text on white background).
Looks good otherwise. :)
A good chunk of what you're talking about can be done by individual users by hitting the 'customize my profile' button on the right. And thanks :)
Ignore me. This is a test
I'll try again on the white on white issue tomorrow. I've gone through the list too many times to count and still can't find it, which tells me that I need to step away from it for a little bit after spending all day doing this, heh.
Yeah, it's taken care of on the user end. After you hit the 'customize my profile' button, hit the 'default' option, then save.
Have started preliminary work on a possible new default style. If you wish to see it, it is Def1 in the styleset dropdown. It is far from finished, but I'll happily take thoughts that others may have such as icon image ideas, etc.
Love the banner. :)
Personally I'd be happy just choosing one of the current schemes (like 'Blues') and just making that the default one - we already have 15 or so to choose from. Saves you the trouble of making up yet another theme which needs to be maintained (for me, the 'Blues' theme with the new banner would look great). :)
Thanks :)
And I'd thought about using the Blues as the default (and it's certainly doable if folks want), but I also had wanted to try my hand at the classic blue/gold/black Star Wars theme. I plan on rolling the Imperial style into the much more stark Deathstar style, and axing the old leftover Imp style. There were a few other things I was going to do with some of the other styles, like turning the Cloud City one into a Cizerack one, and I know folks like Nual, but it'd be tedious trying to recreate that old awesome grunge look. I'm game to try, but it would take a bit.
Put in a starfield background and evened out the blue/gold ratio.
Ok, most if not all of the major stuff should be done for the def1 style. Please let me know if you find anything off with it. I'm sure I missed something somewhere, so more eyes looking the better :)
Looks finished to me :)
It looks great, Christin. Nice work!
Looking nice. :)
Found one thing - the 'Must Read' text on stickied threads is invisible against the grey background.
Good catch. I'm having a hell of a time trying to find the right style variable, so it might take a day or so.
edit - found it! All fixed :)
Found another thing - when clicking someone's username, the drop down list that appears is transparent so you can't read the links on top of what's behind it (sorry if that sounds confusing - just click my username on the left and you'll see what I mean).
EDIT: Also, if you're not logged in, the 'Welcome New User' message at the top of the board/forum page is unreadable (light text on light background). :)
Both should be resolved now :)
Working on site icons atm, and will be doing buttons after.
I'm loving the new graphics - excellent work. :) Great blend of the classic SW look plus with overtones of our old original blue 'ezboard look' (star background, blue font for links etc) we had years ago.
I've made this new 'default' theme my main theme now. :crack
Holly moving the Captain's thread here made me realise there's no 'moved thread that you've posted in' icon for our new swanky 'Default' theme. :x
Oops ^_^; I'll try to gather up the stragglers tonight.
I am horrible I know. I wasn't able to get around to this tonight due to folding laundry and being tired, so I'll make double efforts to tackle the icons tomorrow. I did dabble in a cleanup for the Rebels style (WoD for the moment) though, so I wasn't completely useless!
You're never useless! :hug
edit: fixed some lingering issues from the Purple style and the background of [code] for Enclave
Headings in the new sidebar are invisible in the Black Sun theme.
Thread text is almost unreadable in the Cloud City theme (dark grey text on blue background)
:cyduck
I've noticed that in some themes (empire and alliance at least) the Activity Stream box at the top of the sidebar disappears and I don't know why. :( hopefully it's just me?
Ok, moved thread icons should be fixed, and I also took care of the sidebar text visibility. I'll work on CC in a bit; I need to look back at my notes and see if it was a style that had been slated for conversion to a different look.
Have you changed icons in the Darth Purple style? They're showing up weird for me, but it could just be a problem with Safari and my iPhone...or who knows.
I haven't touched DP. Oh, I did check the sidebar in the Alliance style though, and everything looked fine for me. So maybe it's your phone?
Couldn't help but notice the 'Locked thread you have posted in' icon is wrong/broken in a few styles:
- Basic - Dark
- Sith
- Blues
- Rebel Alliance
Yeah that's my bad. I kind of reshuffled buttons/icons further down the list so I could work on other things. Hopefully I can get some of those taken care of tomorrow morning ^_^;
Took care of a large chunk of the Basic Dark ones.
Because I am a fickle beast, I'm working on the new Myth (Skyrim) styleset's icons.
So effing pretty. :swoon:
Oh yeah, Skyrim style is very nice :D
Could we get the reply text box in a different color than white? Maybe one of the greys (like the one where people's avatar info and such shows up or the color of the actual post background) - kinda like how the Blues style has a darker box.
Not a huge thing, just a suggestion to remove the sudden stark whiteness. lol
Fixed that, and a few other things :)
Just making a note that on phones/mobile/safari browser the Mutants and Deathstar styles (both set at 80% width) with the addition of the 'chatbox full' link in the nav bar it makes the "quick account switch" button slide behind the Advanced Search button.
Not sure how to remove the chatbox full link from just those styles though. :shrug:
I suspect all that can be done to remedy this simply, is to adjust the width percentage until it fits, as there is no way to individually affect the Chatbox link per specific styles or remove the link in the NavBar from all styles in the product options.. Though the individual thing may be possible with conditional formatting in the chatbox product template injection code...much easier to adjust width or remove completely. :)
I prefer to not adjust the width as the width of those styles was chosen specifically for them. I don't know that we neeeeeeeed the link up there, but I do like being able to just jump to the cbox from the top of the page. If we could put it into Quick Links somehow....but it would probably be pretty difficult. :/
Really?! Awesome! :D
Edit: I also think we need to either completely revamp the "Cloud City" style or delete it. It's been broken for a long time and no one uses it as there are other, better blue styles. An orangey-pink cloud city style maybe? But we don't really need another, so...
I have plans for cloud city >D
:D
I suppose I should channel some of this style creativity I'm feeling into making buttons. :shepface:
Just a note:
I have been sprucing up the Imperial styleset. A new title, and some of the buttons are finished, but not nearly all.
The Cizerack Pride styleset is mostly done, if anyone wishes to check it out. Only thing left are the button/icon sets, which I'm working on right now.
Did a tiny bit of updating to the Nual style. Updated background and title image. No icon set done yet, will get to those later.
Nual is now looking more like Nual.
Started working on a Fallout styleset because, well, Fallout.
Fixed some of the buttons paths for the Basic Dark and Blues stylesets, and started working on status icons for the Rebels styleset.
Checking over all the stuff I still haven't quite finished. Updated a tiny portion of the Nual icons, so the front page with the Nual set looks much better. Will be doing more tonight.
Just a heads up: the Chatbox in the Coruscant Night style is white, but the text uses the yellows and greys - makes it a smidge tricky to read.
