Subtle changes, bugs and feedback

They should be identical, something has cached a file, CTRL+F5 across the board will put them in sync.

indeed, looks like Chrome had cached https with the larger font.

Seeing who posted the the most recent comment on stickied threads is much nicer, thanks :)

Indeed - Many thanks for that @Velocio - so much better.

and seeing what subforum threads are in!

Yeah, you would not believe what I had to do to achieve these seemingly simple things.

Basically: rewrite most of the CSS that deals with this.

CSS: https://github.com/microcosm-cc/microweb-bootstrap/commit/523dbac2cf87066e804ac05a6589452934886dc4#diff-d41d8cd98f00b204e9800998ecf8427e

HTML: https://github.com/microcosm-cc/microweb/commit/eea81e2ed4b75f5d83f7e9afec276643553da053

That was a lot of code for "show forum + show recent author".

(although I think the subforum info line can be the same size as all the other info rather than big like the thread title)

CTRL+F5

I've purged the cache... hell I even added timestamps to file names to help encourage cache flushes when we push changes.

Are you able to make the subfourm on following smaller font, like it used to be. So you can fit more on a page, plus neater?

Good work!

ah. cool :)

CTRL+F5, clear your cache, whatever works for you.

I've shipped files that don't have large size words, but browsers are caching very aggressively.

I've also shipped code that should stop this... every style sheet is given a timestamp now, it should mean that changes are instant even though caches are long.

Sweet. Top job. CMD 5 worked.

just noticed the forum name added to the thread title on the Following page. helpful, but takes space!

I'm happy :)

The forum typeface seems to have a problem with U+2074 superscript 4 when it follows a letter
⁰¹²³⁴⁵⁶⁷⁸⁹
0⁰1¹2²3³4⁴5⁵6⁶7⁷8⁸9⁹
a⁰b¹c²d³e⁴f⁵g⁶h⁷i⁸j⁹

Anybody else seeing a place-holder not a superscript 4 after the letter 'e' in that third line?

Just checked, it's OK in FF31, so it seems to be a bug in Opera 12.17. Odd.

strange that it created superscript 7s after the 8 and the i, where 8s should have been

That was just a typo on my part, fixed now.

I meant to ask is there anyway ALT+S could be returned?

How dare you make me use my mouse to send my tripe!

@velocio thanks for reply. those changes make sense. cheers again for all your hard work - I wasn't having a pop. it's not like I'm going to be spending any less time on here anyway haha

What did it do?

And does "tab" and "enter" not do it? (I suspect it submitted the form... we spent time working on the tab order to a similar effect)

@Velocio

It pressed send in vbulletin but I'll use that

Yeah, I wanted to do away with some of the keyboard controls as they conflicted with expectations from other web apps with keyboard controls.

vBulletin had numbered shortcuts, send shortcuts, and multiple other shortcuts.

But... few of those cared about any language other than English, and most of them were a wild contrast to email web apps which tend to use a consistent set of keys.

Instead we went back to default browser behaviour... just relying on tab order.

You'll notice we set the tab order correctly for the majority of scenarios. i.e. that the tab doesn't jump to "upload file" (as it does on Github) or "Cancel" as it does in non-ordered web apps... but it jumps directly to your next most likely action: "Post reply".

The most complex place you can see this is on the Create/Edit Event page. The tab order follows the quickest path to submit an event, not the one to modify it to the greatest complexity.

In old posts where attached files are embedded inline with [img] tags, seemingly random images are being served. I realise that I should have pointed to an example before editing the posts where I found them, so now I'll have to go and find another example. Back in a bit :-)

That's the same bike ennit?
