    Login box gone

    The box in the upper right corner where you input your name and password has dissapeared... right now the only way to log in is to try to make a new post... Plus the whole site is racked with massive glitches... some update..

    Re: Login box gone

    I believe your problems are because you're set to a non-existing theme.  If you can get to your profile, change your profile to default.  meanwhile, I'll see if I can force a mass update to set everyone to default.

    Forum Upgrades was Re: Login box gone

    Ok, just did another process that is going through the huge member database as I type this and cleaning up profiles.  About 15 minutes or so after the time of this message, everyone should try refreshing one time and see if there are any problems left.

     

    In addition to changing the CPU of the server from running at near 90% constantly to below 20%, There are also new features that have long been requested, such as PM notification.  Another new feature are tags, which personally I think are cool.  I recommend everyone to try and play with them a bit.

    I've also upgraded the play-by-forum features of webcomic.net to match the other WCN sites like dnodrks.com, so now everyone here has the same features that dndorks has had for a while now in terms of the pbf popup, etc.

    A lot of those things are requested by users on dndorks.com and are in beta, if you have need for other unique features, everyone can feel free to pm me and I'll usually try to work them in somehow.

    Re: Login box gone

    Now there are black bars on either side of the screen that cut off part of the site... I can't get to my inbox anymore..

    Re: Login box gone

    IE, dont know what version, cause I'm at the library.. (I ususaly go to this site there because it runs so slow on dialup)

    I'll try it out on firefox when I get home..

    What it looks like to me is that the site is trying to display for a higher resolution then what I'm in now..

    Edit: yes, I tried refreshing.

    Re: Login box gone

    I thought the speed should be fairly decent here on dialup.  Maybe we could get rid of some of the unused forums on the forums page?  

    As to the appearance, I'm including a screenshot with the forums 800 wide.  Looks fine to me, for being 800.  The two bars on the sides give depth to the site without being overly large. 

     

    For more comparisons, I also put up screenshots at 1280 and 1024
    1024

    http://webcomic.net/photos/richardm/picture787883.aspx
    800
    http://webcomic.net/photos/richardm/picture787884.aspx

    Using my screenshots as an example of what its "supposed" to look like, how is yours messed up?

    Re: Login box gone

    On the upper bar, the whole right half is cut off.

    This is all I can see:

    Signed in as Prince Karo | Sign out | H

    ..and the reason for the slowdown is all the javascript on the site.. I have the same problem with DeviantArt.

    ..also, when I edit another user's profile though the admin control panel, the 'update' button has gone missing... which means I can't ban anyone or anything..

    Re: Login box gone

    Hmm, and you can't scroll right, it just clips off?  Hey, can you check the forums over at dndorks.com and see if the same thing happens to you?
    http://dndorks.com/forums/
    Its a WCN site, so same username/password as here.  If it works for you, I'll copy the forum theme over here, if it doesn't, I'll have to keep looking for possible issues.

    Re: Login box gone

    Hey, I realized that the name at the top, webcomic.net was shoving over the content "underneath" the black.   So I changed it from webcomic.net to WCN. let me know if that helps!

    Re: Login box gone

    Yeah, that worked, thanks. :)

    Now could you fix that other issue? there's tihs guy who keeps spamming the forums with advertising, and I can't ban him or anything if there's no update button..

    Re: Login box gone

    I think to ban him you have to go to the Administration area -> membership, not the member lookup.  The memberlook up is the public lookup, where as the membership lookup inside the admin lets you manage the user.

    Re: Login box gone

    I AM in the Admin area! I click on 'moderate - edit user'

    There is no 'update' button like there was before you updated the forums...

    Re: Login box gone

    Just to check, I went in to edit yours, There isn't an update button, but now it has a "Save Changes" button.  I've attached a screenshot of what it looks like for me, can you confirm that the button is gone for you?
