1. Forum doesn't like animated gifs as avatar

2. When i try to post something and forget to check the "i'm not a robot"-captcha (do i really have to check it every time i like to post something?) i'm getting an error that something doesn't match with something. When i then hit the "back"-button in my browser (Firefox 38.0.1) to check the captcha and press the "post"-button i get this error-message:

(http://abload.de/img/bildschirmfoto2015-067xuuo.png)

3. Is it possible to open a ?new layer? / ?seperate window? (i have no idea how to call it) when trying to add a picture and then post the link to it instead of just writing the "" into the post? Like in the old forum => (http://abload.de/img/bildschirmfoto2015-069gzl1.png)

edit:
4. uh, pictures are huge! Does the new forum resize them to use the whole screensize?

1. Might be the way you uploaded it? Will check.

2. Need to set captcha to only trigger on registration and not when posting. (maybe just for first posts). The message error is a problem in the source code, basically it counts a post before it checks for captcha, then yells at you when you resubmit with captcha.

3. Probably not without serious modding. I can't do it from phone.

4. Looks good on mobile but screen is small... will see what I can do. @krisper a few lines of css might fix this! maybe/probably change a width 100% to max-width 100%

http://www.simplemachines.org/community/index.php?topic=532277.0
http://www.simplemachines.org/community/index.php?topic=529560.0

As for links and images, could we use a link pop-up window like this mod (like we used to do on the old forum)?
http://custom.simplemachines.org/mods/index.php?mod=3832
I think Pumisher asked for it first and I, too, think it might be much handier to just insert a link and SMF does the rest.

I have posted on the forum where that first link takes you Csar, thanks. It's something to do with the language set but I am waiting for a fix. I'll check out that other mod when I get a chance.

I have installed this mod, it didn't do anything to adding images, just to the links.

Well, I have no clue but could this Link-mod's html or css code be adapted for images?7
I've only found 2 image popup mods in the library
Test popup with IMG Link (http://custom.simplemachines.org/mods/index.php?action=search;basic_search=image+popup)

But I guess you've already tried both of them, right?

Yeah, I tried them, they are both too old for this version I think. The link mod could probably be modded, but I don't have time at the moment. Will look into it later.

I see the twitter link worked for Pum, but not me?

Weird. I also can't get that specific link to work. Maybe there's something fishy about it...

Besides that, do you guys  know whether the time counter works correctly too? It feels like it's counting double minutes or something because I already have 7 hours+ and I don't believe I've spent that many an hour on here yet.

Yeah, that's odd. But as long as it's working for other links then I guess the mod is working OK.

I know that it is always unreliable in code to know exactly when someone leaves a website. It depends on how you leave, it may not detect the browser being closed for example, so the counter may continue for a while after you have left.

Hello there
Title: Re: Now Testing
Post by: inchemwetrust on Jun 29, 2015, 17:42
Found one:

For some reason,i click the the logos to the far left but don't work.  I assume the 'C' logo would direct me to 'the social' and 'sunglasses man' to 'Live' etc!

Not sure if the logos were intended for this or not. Maybe they shouldn't be clickable at all.

one more thing...You kinda of chose green as your 3rd color. It's not bad, its just...wait a minute! I remember WN saying something that this forum will have some artwork and direction from chem HQ. I assume the green color might be found in the album booklet. Hmm!

Otherwise Grade A for all of you!

The images appear to link to the most recent unread posts in that board.

The layout is a little odd though, kind of how I imagine the search would display results (haven't tried that out yet) which could make sense if the buttons are in fact searching the board for posts that have been unread and are within the last 24 hours.

I like the idea, but I can't think of a time I'd ever just want to see the most recent posts instead of all of them. Especially when they are always most recent at the top.

I'd agree with ICWT and say either don't have the images as buttons, or link to the same place as the text. i.e the full boards.
Title: Re: Now Testing
Post by: Csar on Jun 29, 2015, 19:03
You're right. Clicking on the images does link to all the unread posts of that specific sub-forum.  I suspect it is a default feature of this SMF forum software. We have a little list of open things that are still pending and I believe this was one of those minor things. But as soon as our IT-wizards will have the time they'll see about it, I'm sure.
