Subject: Forum Page Really Wide, What Did I Do? LOL
I might figure this out as I go over what settings I changed but just thought I would ask if anyone here has an idea what would do this.
The problem I am having is that every page other than forum.php is fluid and will shrink with screen size, however the forum page is locked at like 1000px wide. :?

If I can figure this out myself I will let you all know what I think it may be, I am running the beta-2 however I think this may apply to all. Site I am having problems with is the one linked in my profile. (or the WWW button below)

No big deal though, just curious what you think.

look´s like a navigator thingy

in FF i see forum.php fixed to nav window

ff

in chrome its stretched about double wide

chrome_png

probably an CSS thing

I think you should just change global-wrapper and wrapper to get full width.

Funny sidenote is that only Safari and Chroome are affected and neither of these show the right border of the page! no matter if you scroll ...that could be a clue :wink:

Subject: Re: Forum Page Really Wide, What Did I Do? LOL
hm.

set wrapper to 100% or less

if i´m not wrong

global_wrapper and wrapper are set to 980px by default and it say´s !important afterwards

try to change that to 100% or less

:mryellow: Thank you guys!


I figured it out!

If you enable "Quick Settings > Full Features" in ACP it will happen, then if you disable "Main Settings > SQL Optimization > Shoutbox :: Who Is Online" it goes away.

Maybe a silly remark but "it goes away" is not it's fixed :oops:

I know I know I'm picky :mrblue: it just may be a good idea to look why IMHO

Subject: Re: Forum Page Really Wide, What Did I Do? LOL
I agree with Joshua - The topic should be BUG - (Not Solved) until it actually is solved?

And it looks a lot like either fixed width is being used where it shouldn't be, or white-space: nowrap is ??

Code: [Download] [Hide] [Select]
/* main selectors */
body {
background: #ffffff;
/*background: #ffffff url('images/ice/bg_body.gif') top left repeat-x;*/
margin: 0px 0px 0px 0;
padding: 0px 10px 0px;
}

#global-wrapper {
/*
width: 980px !important;
clear: both;
margin: 0 auto;
*/
}


thats what style_ice.css says

as you´ll notice

width is commented

Subject: Re: Forum Page Really Wide, What Did I Do? LOL
What Hans could do is in the "Default" overall_header.tpl or whatever it's called these days?

Find: (Just for a quick test to see if the problem still exists).

<div id="global-wrapper">

Replace with:

<div align="center">
<div id="global-wrapper" style="width: 80%;">

In overall_footer.tpl

Find: </body>

Before Add: </div>


If the 80% centre's and it's fine - Then expand it to 100% and see what happens next?

I don't use Safari or Chrome, and I'm not about to install them just to test this. ;)

It would also be a whole lot easier if Hans would put it back up with the faults and all that it was before - because "HIDING" the faults with a beta release makes it a damn site harder to determine what is actually happening.

You guys are correct, I just flipped the [solved] on because I already felt like a pain in the rear.

I don't have permission to re-edit it though to change to [bug] though. And seeing as it would now be classified as a bug I will do more testing to be sure that is exactly what is causing that. I can say that I have made no modifications to the base code since the upgrade, so this is a "standard" install.

Thanks again, and feel free to edit my title if you can.

Ok, you win - - :mryellow:

I'll install beta 2 and chrome and see what happens when I do the above?

Edit:

Done and tested.

Just do this for now as I explained before, and worry about the "Official CSS" later.

Header blah!

<body>
<div align="center">
<div id="global-wrapper" style="width: 96%; text-align: left;">

Footer: Blah!

</div>
</body>
</html>

I've reset the topic for now, calling it a bug could be a little too soon but I'm glad you guys agree :wink:

Subject: Re: Forum Page Really Wide, What Did I Do? LOL
Strange thing is I am having a hard time replicating the problem with consistent results. I was able to make it happen again, but not exactly after enabling "Full Features" I will test other configurations and see if I can come up with anything more specific.

I should also test this with other "styles" too right?

Subject: Re: Forum Page Really Wide, What Did I Do? LOL
I found the problem with Chrome was when one clicked the full screen/reduce button in the top left-hand corner - A lot of the template just disappeared from the right-hand side of the screen, and one had to then use the bottom scroll bar to read it.

With the "Fix" I did - the whole screen reduced to fit the now reduced viewing area. ;)
