Upgrade to new vBulletin v3.0.3
 
Hello everyone, dstruct2k and myself have recently upgraded the forum to vBulletin v3.0.3. Please report ANY probems to one of the Council members, so that we can fix it.

Also, image authentication at registration has been turned of due to problems with our GD library, therefor thumbnail images for attachments wont work either.

Onno & Myself are working on a fix at the moment.

Regards,
Sebastian M Juerges

Nova, I just noticed it too... It's showing up as a javascript error in Internet Explorer. Now to track it down.

Re: Upgrade to new vBulletin v3.0.3
 
Well, I've started squishing bugs... This is on the list.

sfx1999 18-08-2004 05:12

Re: Upgrade to new vBulletin v3.0.3
 
What about that dumb bug where you read a topic and return to the main forums right after, and it still says the post is new until you go back to the section? Can you fix that? It's really annoying.

dstruct2k 18-08-2004 05:17

Re: Upgrade to new vBulletin v3.0.3
 
That's not a bug from the upgrade... That's because you're not reloading a page, you're hitting back.

Solution: Don't use "Back". :D

sfx1999 18-08-2004 05:18

Re: Upgrade to new vBulletin v3.0.3
 
I'm not using back. I clicked on the main forums button aboove the posts.

Also, why does it keep saying that my posts are new posts if I make them?

Oh sh!t. I just left the forums and returned and it forgot all of the topics I read and marked them as still unread.

Re: Upgrade to new vBulletin v3.0.3
 
You need some bug report? I couldn't be my-self if I can't find one.:D

Try to send to somebody some PM and look at Your button to send this PM You just edited (this button near button "Preview Message"). For me that button doesn't look good...;)

Hi,
first big thanks for updating the board :)

second f*** GN (don't dare to ask), anyways, i also finished my work:
the files login.php and includes/functions_login.php are now modified, please download them, to keep your local copy in sync, just in case...

i added some code into them to set and delete a cookie used by the filebase to have single sign login :)

as soon as have set up eclipse again, i will work on the wiki, i will abuse the ldap code in there....

b.t.w. wiki, somehow my redirects for the wiki are gone, anyone remembers doing so ;)

cheers Onno

/update
- the php files are backed up, just look and see.
- http://wiki.bots-united.com was the redirect.

Me too. Its VERY annoying as I have to close off two prompt boxes everytime those errors happen (which is every page here, except the main page).

Some further info:

The first error is in this file:

Code:

http://forums.bots-united.com/clientscript/vbulletin_quickreply.js
on line 17, which looks like this:

Code:

var active = true;
//#############################################################################
// disable quote reply checkbox until a click is made if we are not using true
// threaded mode, REGARDLESS of require_click setting!
if (threadedmode != 1)
{
fetch_object("qr_quickreply").disabled = true;
}

seems threadedmode is never defined in the code, which causes the error.

For the second one, its in this file:

Code:

http://forums.bots-united.com/clientscript/vbulletin_wysiwyg.js
on line 316, in this block of code:

Code:

window.onresize = close_popups;
if (typeof(preview_focus) == "undefined" && typeof(require_click) == "undefined")
{
htmlwindow.focus(); // not doing this for now as it moves the page down on preview and the QR area might be closed
}
var endtime = new Date();
window.status = construct_phrase(vbphrase["wysiwyg_initialized"], (is_ie ? "Internet Explorer" : "Mozilla"), (endtime - starttime) / 1000);
}
// #############################################################################
// function to initialize the smiliebox
function wysiwyg_smiliebox_init()

it seems the line that has vbphrase is causing problems.

Hope that helps some.

One thing I'm noticing, is that the formatting seems a bit screwy on some pages: some of the posts are running off the post area, and not wrapping around. It only seems to happen on posts that have quotes in them, and it doesn't always happen. Its worse in some threads it seems like, and not so bad in others.

Heres a pic of this thread showing an example of the bug, tho this isn't the worst I've seen it.

dstruct2k 20-08-2004 08:21

Re: Upgrade to new vBulletin v3.0.3
 
That should only happen in [code] tags, or
  • If you're running at an insanely low resolution (which that image looks like, actually...)
  • If you're using a buggy browser
  • If your window isn't big enough for the minimum size for one of the "nowrap" tables somewhere.

Maleficus 20-08-2004 17:16

Re: Upgrade to new vBulletin v3.0.3
 
Thats 800x600

Browser is the same I used before, and it never happened here before the switch. (IE).

And its happening in quote tags, NOT code tags.

Hope that helps.

Re: Upgrade to new vBulletin v3.0.3

dstruct2k 21-08-2004 06:51

Re: Upgrade to new vBulletin v3.0.3
 
IE... What version? 6.1, that doesn't happen for me. Go find a code tag... Or better yet, here.
Code:

Long piece of code that really doesn't make any sense but it's code and it's all on one line so it should cause the post to scroll off the page

dstruct2k 21-08-2004 06:52

Re: Upgrade to new vBulletin v3.0.3
 
Now, quote test...

Well, we have to replace a fair few of the new images with old one, coz the old one's were better. Anyone up for making a new "No unread posts" and "New unread posts" icon ? Pierre, feel like coying the old smilies over into the new forum folder ?

I just had a look at the pic and compared it with what I saw using Opera 7.11 - pretty much the same: Code boxes scroll off the page, quotation boxes don't.
The only difference is that IE centers all posts, whereas Opera keeps the left margin fixed.

Re: Upgrade to new vBulletin v3.0.3
 
Yeah peraonaly i like the original bots united logo! but thats me and i think the new threads or post in a forum are little less noticable which i don't like and there are some other page alignment problems but other than i really like it !

>BKA< T Wrecks 22-08-2004 22:52

Re: Upgrade to new vBulletin v3.0.3
 
The new icons are nice (maybe a tad too small for my taste, but np) - however, open the PB 2.6mm forum. You will see that they look a bit bad in front of all the sub-forums, because they are on a darker BG there - you can see a light grey box around them.
Moreover, on the main index, at the bottom of the page, there's one icon left to adapt to the new look: "Forum is closed for posting". Not that we need it much, but it can't hurt.
So if and when you have time to fire up Photoshop for another demonstration of your 1337 skills, you might have a look at that... /me stops nagging already :D

Well, in general, I like the new and simple icons - all that XP-ish look and those disgusting colours...*yuck*
Good thing that the old smilies are back, too! :)
