Welcome Message and IE9 Compatabilty

[ixl]

Hi All.

I've just upgraded a test forum from 3.0.10, Board3 1.0.6 to 2.0.0b1 and it went perfectly. It works like a dream and looks great. Thank you for your portal upgrade is does the job very well. I have two small problems though.

1, The Welcome Message is great, as are all the other included add ons. However in 1.0.6 we were able to change the code ( or had the option ) to only show the welcome message for users that had not registered. The problem is now if its enabled, everyone see's it all the time. How can we make this only viewable to non registered users? In my opinion, its not needed for people who have registered.

2, Also, I think either the 2.0.0b1 portal for the released theme CA_Black, is not quite fully compatible with IE9. It looks fine in IE8 or Firefox, but in IE9 this is what you get : ( note the gaps are different in places and the Vote doesnt show the vote bars, but the same vote shows fine in IE8, as do the gaps.
THIS IS IE9


THIS IS IE8 ( which is ok )




Many thanks for your time.

1.)

Unlimited custom blocks - you can add as many custom blocks in the ACP as you want

You can for each module (block) given a separate group rights.

2.)Show them the code in the _block_config.html use it for the styles.

Hi Archivar, Thanks for the reply.

1.)

OK, I'll look into that.

2.)Show them the code in the _block_config.html use it for the styles.

Not sure what you mean. Show who? The code in that file is as per your thread, ( viewtopic.php?f=57&t=5399 ) which I followed the instructions from. Is that what you mean? If so, I dont know why your code works ok in other web browsers, but not in IE9. Im not sure what to add to make it compatible? ( Dont forget the Poll Issue ).

Code: Select all

<!-- Config for the left and right blocks //-->
<!-- DEFINE $LR_BLOCK_H_L = '<div class="block-header"><span><span></span></span></div><div class="block-content"><div class="block-inner"><ul class="topiclist"><li class="header"><dl class="icon"><dt style="margin-left: 2px; margin-top: 0px; width: 140px;">' -->
<!-- DEFINE $LR_BLOCK_H_R = '</dt></dl></li></ul><div style="padding:4px;">' -->
<!-- DEFINE $LR_BLOCK_F_L = '</div>' -->
<!-- DEFINE $LR_BLOCK_F_R = '<div class="block-clear"></div></div></div><div class="block-footer"><span><span></span></span></div>' -->

<!-- Config for the center blocks //-->
<!-- DEFINE $C_BLOCK_H_L = '<div class="block-header"><span><span></span></span></div><div class="block-content"><div class="block-inner"><ul class="topiclist"><li class="header"><dl class="icon"><dt style="margin-left: 2px; margin-top: 7px;">' -->
<!-- DEFINE $C_BLOCK_H_R = '</dt></dl></li></ul><div style="padding:4px;">' -->
<!-- DEFINE $C_BLOCK_F_L = '</div>' -->
<!-- DEFINE $C_BLOCK_F_R = '<div class="block-clear"></div></div></div><div class="block-footer"><span><span></span></span></div>' -->

<!-- Config for compact blocks //-->
<!-- DEFINE $CC_BLOCK_H_L = '<div class="block-header"><span><span></span></span></div><div class="block-content"><div class="block-inner"><ul class="topiclist"><li class="header"><dl class="icon">' -->
<!-- DEFINE $CC_BLOCK_H_R = '</dl></li></ul><div style="padding:0px;">' -->

<!-- Images-URL //-->
<!-- DEFINE $NO_AVATAR_IMG = '/images/no_avatar.gif' -->

<!-- Vertical distance between left/right and center Blocks -->
<!-- DEFINE $BLOCK_DISTANCE = '10px' -->

<!-- show Icons in left/right Blocks? 0=no 1=yes -->
<!-- DEFINE $S_BLOCK_ICON = 1 -->

<!-- postbody top (default 1 by prosilver) 0=no 1=yes -->
<!-- DEFINE $S_POSTBODY_TOP = 1 -->

<!-- override the column width settings of the ACP for this style? 0=no 1=yes -->
<!-- DEFINE $S_COLUMNS_WIDTH_OVERRIDE = 0 -->

<!-- override the column width settings of the ACP - set the width if enabled -->
<!-- DEFINE $PORTAL_LEFT_COLUMN_OVERRIDE = '200' -->
<!-- DEFINE $PORTAL_RIGHT_COLUMN_OVERRIDE = '200' -->

Hi there.

I really would apprecaite if anyone can let me know if you know how to solve this issue with CA Black, Portal 2.0.0b1 and IE9.

Perhaps some of you have used the same Portal Version and Them and are using it, but havent checked it on IE9? If you do have it working in IE9, can you let me have a look at your _block_config.html file please?

Ive used the code provided by Archivar, which works in IE8 adn other browers but not for me in IE9.

Cheers

Hope Mr Bug Tracker is able to fix it. lol

How will I know when the issue is resolved Marc?

I think the problem is not just with CA_Black.

Since you have changed your board home page to prosilver, using 2.0.0, I can see the same problem in IE9, but its not quite as bad with this theme, as much as it is with ca_black.

I just wanted to help and show you what im seeing, incase others cant.

In the meantime whilst this issue with IE9 remains, is it worth me upgrading from 2.0.0b to 2.0.0 ? Is there an upgrade set of instructions to do that from the beta?

Thanks.

//EDIT Yes, there is, but its wasnt stated it was, in the post, its only detailed in the download zip.

The problem with 2.0.0b1 is also IE9.
If no value 2.0.0, we had waited new version.

Hi Archivar... Thank you for your reply. Hope you are ok.

I dont understand what you mean. ( sorry ).

Do you mean that 2.0.0 has the same problem with IE 9 as well ? ( Same problem as 2.0.0b ? )

I am happy to use 2.0.0 with the gaps problem in the portal, but I cannot understand why the Vote Block does not show properly using CA Black. Its very odd. Did you see my images? If I could get that part fixed I would be almost happy. For some reason the Vote Block does not show the vote bars in the portal.

My images above show this, but your forum cuts the right side off... lol

THIS BELOW IS PORTAL 2.0.0b and your CA BLACK in IE 9



THIS BELOW IS PORTAL 2.0.0b and your CA BLACK IN IE8

it is a prosilver-based problem. In subsilver2-based styles all is fine, I've noticed.

[ixl]

Are you sure?

Ive added images to my above post...

[MyLady]

poll block is for center blocks only, may be that is the problem with it
