Replying messes up on forums

[sinatik45]

The first reply to a new topic messes up everytime :S

You can see what I mean in the screenshot:

The user EndlessExertion made the topic and Scott replies to it and his post is half way across the forum area

Anyone know what the problem is or how to fix it?

[sinatik45]

Anyone?

[sAce]

this is a theme issue, kindly post in the respective theme support topic

[kat]

Please be patient. We're all volunteers and we could be in different timezones to you.


OK... Give us some clues, here.


What theme are you using?


What version of SMF?


What mods do you have installed?


Anything else that could be relevant?

It's a bug in the RC2 Display.template.php.

Find:

Code Select Expand

                     <div class="custom_fields_above_signature">
                        <ul class="reset nolist>';

Replace:

Code Select Expand

                     <div class="custom_fields_above_signature">
                        <ul class="reset nolist">';

[kat]

* Kat thinks they look the same. 

[Antechinus]

They aren't.

[hadesflames]

ahh, hard to see but the first one is missing a " on

Code Select Expand

<ul class="reset nolist>';

[kat]

Ah, yeah!

* Kat gets his spex fixed.

I'll go change that, on mine.


Thanks, guys!

Thanks, everytime I edit the file on my FTP and click save it changes back to what it was before :S

Is it ok to edit it from the FTP or should I edit then upload it back on?

[Antechinus]

Edit then upload, and make sure the file is writeable before trying to overwrite it.

[sinatik45]

Code Select Expand

// Are there any custom profile fields for above the signature?
if (!empty($message['member']['custom_fields']))
{
$shown = false;
foreach ($message['member']['custom_fields'] as $custom)
{
if ($custom['placement'] != 2 || empty($custom['value']))
continue;
if (empty($shown))
{
$shown = true;
echo '
<div class="custom_fields_above_signature">
<ul class="reset nolist">';
}

That's what I have.. but it still comes out strange. Would it fix previous problems or just stop it from happening again?

[Antechinus]

Should do both.

[sinatik45]

It's still messing up.. =/

Any other ideas?

[adbrad]

would you be able to post a link to the forum.
Do you think it could be a browser issue

[sinatik45]

www.explicitkills.co.uk is the site.

There's an example in this topic:

http://www.explicitkills.co.uk/index.php?topic=11.msg53;topicseen#new


I don't think so, I use Safari and other people on the site use Firefox and IE and they see the problem aswel

But i'll check on Opera and Firefox myself now

[Arantor]

Antechinus, has this been fixed in SVN?

looking at this in ie8 it appears the user info is flowing out of the post forcing the next post to pushed over to the right. could it be to do with the display.template it is the same in firefox and chrome

[sinatik45]

I was told that before, I've edited that file but it still hasn't fixed the problem.

It could be me having too many options on the profile area, i'll take some off and see what happens.

[sinatik45]

Anyone got anymore ideas?

I've worked out if you put a signature up then it doesn't happen. It's the theme.

Could this topic be moved if it's in the wrong place for theme help?

[Antechinus]

Which theme are you using?

Antechinus, has this been fixed in SVN?

Yes.

[sinatik45]

Im using Kani

Im also trying to work out how to remove things from the profile are in the forum:

http://i189.photobucket.com/albums/z21/robwebb90/Picture1.png

The MSN, PM etc. icons under the post count. I know they disappear if you do not enter info on them in your profile.

But can I remove them in the theme code?

The PSN/XLB are custom fields and I want to keep them

[Antechinus]

If you mean this theme: http://custom.simplemachines.org/themes/index.php?lemma=1695 it is not compatible with 2.0.

[sinatik45]

it's this one:

http://www.fussilet.com/index.php?action=tpmod;dl=item78

"Kani is premium theme for SMF 2.0"

[Antechinus]

I'd suggest asking Fussilet about it then. If there's a bug in one of his templates he'll probably want to know so he can fix it.
