Sméagol Posted December 23, 2021 Posted December 23, 2021 I think the box is slightly affecting the layout (and/or something else is). The top banner background is also gone.
Ashley Posted December 23, 2021 Author Posted December 23, 2021 Could you supply screenshots please? I'm not seeing these problems so it's kind of a stab in the dark trying to figure out how to resolve them.
Shorty Posted December 23, 2021 Posted December 23, 2021 I wouldn't worry too much about the "profile progress box", it's not really a mistake per se, and it's literally just one click for a user to dismiss it forever I did see the banner image disappear briefly but that seemed to fix itself, maybe try a hard refresh? (ctrl+f5 / cmd+shift+r)
Sméagol Posted December 23, 2021 Posted December 23, 2021 (edited) A hard refresh was exactly what I did to make it disappear. Edit: Added a screencap. Edited December 23, 2021 by Sméagol
Ashley Posted December 23, 2021 Author Posted December 23, 2021 Is that not the out of the box theme? If you go to the bottom of any page you'll see a themes drop-down. We're you maybe using the N-Europe Default one before?
Sméagol Posted December 23, 2021 Posted December 23, 2021 I've always used the default, that's not the problem. I was simply pointing out there's no banner image right now, is that correct? And I feel like the layout's slightly off, in chrome it jumps a bit, as if compensating for the profile box, but maybe I'm imagining that. But it feels there's a bit too much white space between the menu and the content. That's where the profile box was.
bob Posted December 25, 2021 Posted December 25, 2021 I don't know if these issues are connected, but Tapatalk broke around the same time... Might try a reinstall, but I wouldn't be surprised if it was just Tapatalk being crap. 1

I don't think it is, from what I understand (and after contacting Tapatalk support) it's to do with the forum Tapatalk plugin. Think we just need to wait for the N-E admin to fix/update it so Tapatalk will work with N-E again. Edited December 25, 2021 by Sheikah 1

I'm getting this as well after a hard refresh. The Home / Unread Content / Mark Unread links look lighter as well. Edit: banner seems to have fixed itself.

I think it might have been because of a change I was trying to make to fix the Tapatalk thing so in a way its Tapatalk's fault... Althought for what it's worth I only changed the N-E default theme, not the (Invision) default one so I think whatever was happening there might have just been some weird blip. Anyway I will try and look at this soonish. Been ill the last week and today is the first day in a few where I've done anything. 1
Jonnas Posted September 29, 2023 Posted September 29, 2023 Not sure if this is the spot to ask this... but I accidentally posted in the Gaming Diary thread just as I started to write a post. I tried to delete it immediately, and all I found was the "Hide" button. So, did that button hide the post from everybody, or just from myself? And if it was just from me, how do I "unhide" it? So I can delete it properly?

If not I can delete it for you. I did all of this on my laptop. Can't see any posts here, nor any unhide option. But you did give me the idea to check the thread from my phone, where I'm not logged in. Sure enough, as a guest, I can't see the accidental post, so it's safe to assume it's effectively deleted. Thank you, in any case
Ashley Posted September 30, 2023 Author Posted September 30, 2023 FWIW staff can see it so if you want it actually removed I can do that for you.
Happenstance Posted January 23 Posted January 23 I feel like this may have been asked before but not sure so I'll ask now. Is there any chance of updating our emoticons? Just feels like our style is very old at this point and most places will have the standard these days that will match whatever you type from your phone or keyboard.

But you can also just use your phones keyboard which I think is why we've not bothered 🤷♂️

Dcubed Posted January 23 Posted January 23 (edited) The N-E smileys are really quite iconic at this point though, I'd be mortified to see them go. They're my favourite smileys on the interwebs Likewise, I'll always choose to give a "Thanks" rather than a Like because it's the classic N-E response Edited January 23 by Dcubed 1
Glen-i Posted January 23 Posted January 23 Speaking as someone who never uses emoticons. Don't get rid of the N-E ones. The standard ones are boring.

Reactions are responses to posts and are custom to N-E designed by @RedShell hence why there's a specific one in there... Wouldn't get rid of either, but could potentially add some more modern emoticons alongside the old ones. 1 2
Jonnas Posted January 23 Posted January 23 I love our emojis They're expressive, charming, cute, and characteristic. Somehow, we went from having a surprising variety of smileys throughout the internet, to gradually having every single platform share the exact same set of emojis. Except for N-E It's the best corner of the internet 1 3
drahkon Posted January 24 Posted January 24 Just add a PS5 Platinum trophy to the mix and I'll be happy 2
bob Posted January 25 Posted January 25 Those emojis don't show up in Tapatalk, so I just see people writing the word 'hug' and 'bowdown' instead.It's weird, but in my head I just imagine them saying them out loud while talking. yay, bouncy, bowdown. 3
