marcmarc Posted July 8, 2019 Share Posted July 8, 2019 sorry if it has already been said but, the "MusicPlayerNetwork" logo being in fixed size prevents the correct resizing of the template. you'd have to add #content.fw center img {width: 100%; max-width: 847px;} to make it work properly.

MoodyBluesKeys Posted July 11, 2019 Share Posted July 11, 2019 I've run into a number of threads over the past few years where MalwareBytes Premium would block a site like the first picture, most likely a site hosting someone's avatar picture. Haven't yet run into it on the main forum site. I was using AVG, but now (on Win 10) use Microsoft's AV and MalwareBytes Premium - has worked out well. Usually when I see the avatar site problem, I post in the thread so that whoever is using an avatar hosted at that site can move their avatar elsewhere.

AnotherScott Posted July 11, 2019 Share Posted July 11, 2019 I'm back to UBBT70. I missed the bolding of newly updated topics in ubbthreads and ubbcentral (and ubbcentral also suffered from a hard to read--insufficient line spacing?--typeface for paragraphs and the loss of some helpful visual elements). Your new default is still the most pleasing, but there's just too much white space. I don't mean too white in a sense that could be addressed with a dark theme, I mean just too much screen area with no useful content, so there is an inordinate amount of scrolling on small screens like my Macbook Air or iPad. It would be nice if UBBT70's main thread page could be tightened up some (those other ubb themes show many more threads on the screen at once, at least in part because easy visual topic differentiation is accomplished by underlining rather than somewhat thick dividers), but at least it's still better than the new default. Quote Maybe this is the best place for a shameless plug! Our now not-so-new new video at https://youtu.be/3ZRC3b4p4EI is a 40 minute adaptation of T. S. Eliot's "Prufrock" - check it out! And hopefully I'll have something new here this year. ;-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe Muscara Posted July 11, 2019 Share Posted July 11, 2019 It seems like I'm having posts getting marked as read and I have not seen them. I didn't see J. Dan's thread about his bandmate's death until just now, and I know I've been here in between. I didn't see his reply to my reply on his Stairway thread until I looked for it. It was way down, and marked as read. Quote "I'm so crazy, I don't know this is impossible!

TommyRude Posted July 19, 2019 Share Posted July 19, 2019 Nice job on the conversion / migration! Not a bug, but a ques and a request.. 1. What does the bolding of the first 5-10 messages mean? (you probably explained that somewhere, sorry for the repeat) 2. Would it be blasphemy to suggest change the top of the page - by putting the garage sale and shameless plugs as hyperlinks (next to Search, Forum Help)? That way, the main forum would rise to the top and occupy the prime screen real estate?

marczellm Posted July 21, 2019 Share Posted July 21, 2019 Bug report (this is technical stuff): I subscribed to the Keyboard Corner RSS feed located at https://forums.musicplayer.com/cache/rss18.xml The file is invalid XML though, because of this part in the code: Looks can be deceiving ( a Leslie story ) Math&Music The & character should be encoded as & The file being invalid, my feed reader cannot parse it and displays an error message. This is a bug in the forum software, I don't know if fixable here or should I report to the vendor.

SamuelBLupowitz Posted August 8, 2019 Share Posted August 8, 2019 Is anyone else having issues with embedded video not loading on the forum? I assumed it was user error yesterday, but now I'm seeing a number of embedded YouTube vids absent from some threads, when they'd been active before. Same issue on multiple browsers. Quote Samuel B.

elif Posted August 8, 2019 Share Posted August 8, 2019 The style UBBT70_Dark does not show many images (emojis and the like). Perhaps it is the directory reference "default_dark".

Maybe hide this when replies are disallowed. I'm hip - I found that out a few days ago. The issue is that those are created as just a regular post in a forum (they're all in FORUM NEWS, then you enable it as a Global Announcement.

Dave Bryce Posted August 10, 2019 Author Share Posted August 10, 2019 The https: conversion is what screwed all the videos up. The embeds are all http... There's a way for everyone to adjust their browser, I hear...but that's a pain, especially for newcomers. Also, the security has slowed the site down. I believe we may just turn it off rather than have issues with 20 years worth of embeds, and have to deal with new ones working and old ones not, etc. Jim's looking into it. dB Quote ==> David Bryce Music • Funky Young Monks <== Professional Affiliations: Royer Labs • Music Player Network Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
