Reinstalling PM functionality - not working same since upgrade to RC1 2.0

[robg2251]

Our PM functionality isn't working the same as it was in 1.1.7.  It used to have a "find user" functionality as well as auto flow members names into the "to" box as you typed.   

Is there a way we can just reinstall this part?   We have a custom theme, which caused quite a bit of problems..  I'd imagine this is just another one of those..   

Thanks.

Its probably the custom theme.

Do you have the same problems with the smf default core theme?

[robg2251]

Looking at the SMF default and now I'm not seeing it in there either..   Here's the message from the user after we updated to 2.0 - maybe it's a feature that wasn't brought over, but, it seems to make sense having it.. ??

There used to be a feature when sending a Pm that allowed us to look up a members name - it was simply called find member.....

That option is not there anymore - or if it is I can not find it.

Can we have that feature back please?

SMF has an 'auto-suggest' feature now, that when you start typing in a users name and hit 3 characters, a drop down will appear with names that match (similar to Google's front page search).

Excellent - any reason why mine wouldn't be working?

Would need a link to your site and a test account to investigate with.

JS errors on the page?

Need a test account too.  Can you create one please?

and a test account to investigate with.

Actually, I don't need a test account... You're using a 1.1.x theme with 2.0 rc1, I'm amazed it's working properly.

If you try with the default theme, does it work?

[robg2251]

I see what the problem is.   After you type the first three letters.. it calls the usernames but puts them down in the lower left corner of the page..  I wasn't seeing them before.   Probably an issue with the theme I take it.. 
*Edit - if anyone has any idea on how to fix this, I'd appreciate it!   I see the problem, but haven't got a resolution...

It's because of the incompatible style sheets... your stylesheet doesn't have the needed declarations for 2.0RC1 from the default theme.
