Site upgrade!

[889]

I just meant that moving back and forth on various pages on both mobile and web versions, it's possible to get confused, particularly when new to the revised mobile version. That should sort itself out over time. I think mobile versions by their nature are more difficult to grasp at first.

[roddy]

Yeah, that makes sense. The mobile version is a bit more complex now, but it's also fully-functional. Should be the case that anything you can do on your desktop, you can do on mobile. 

[roddy]

Another possibility - sidebar. Problem with these is the sidebar's never the same length as the posts, so either it juts down way past it, or you acres of empty sidebar.

 

[Mati1]

Heh I can see what you did there!

The sidebar should be optional and / or be loaded on a big screen (as in 1920+ on a big monitor).

Imron, those links you flagged up now work as they should.

 

I found a bunch of others that don't.  See all the links in this post

[roddy]

Thanks, will get to them Monday.

What's the optimal resolution for a profile's cover photo?

[roddy]

@Shelley, if you're editing a blog entry (which I think you did Saturday), try not to change the publish date - that can make an old post reappear at the top of the Activity Stream. 

 

@imron have filed a bug report for those links, they'll be an easy fix. 

 

@Mati1 I'm not actually sure, but it looks like the container has a maximum width of 1340px so I'd guess 

[Mati1]

I did some measuring and comparing and am now using 1264 x 256 for the profile photo (banner). This should be close enough to the correct size (and is a multiple of eight as should be used for jpegs).

[Shelley]

@roddy sorry didn't realise I had. How do I edit without changing the date?

[roddy]

It might have been something else, but if you're editing a blog post there's a field at the bottom to change the date. But don't, because it confuses things.

[Guest realmayo]

I see the whole-quote function is back.... or did I just imagine it ever went away?

[Shelley]

I see the date field, I understand, I did change it to now, not understanding the date was in the past but that was correct.

[roddy]

@realmayo - yeah, that was me. I'm in the process of figuring out how to do things properly ;-) Should be gone again now.

If anyone feels inclined - select 'experimental' from the theme drop down in the footer. It should make the page loads a bit quicker, but may result in oddities - only thing I've noticed is the editor toolbar looking a bit funny (edit - fixed!). It's just shifting javascript to the footer. 

I've been testing this for the last week or so and haven't noticed any problems, so I've made the change for everyone. 

[Mati1]

I can see that the avatars on the forum overview pages (thread listing pages) are back.

[imron]

Looks like the SSL certificate for the site has expired.

[roddy]

Which explains why SMTP stopped sending out emails! Looks like the auto-renewal of the certificate failed. 

[roddy]

Sorry for any disruption there, folks. The SSL certificate should autorenew but didn't. Fixed now and I've put arrangements in place to ensure I remember to check it's renewed in plenty of time in May. 

 

@imron, remind me about this in May.
