Also removed a bunch of thread management links that were there for everyone, not just GMs. Didn't work if you clicked on them, but shouldn't have been there to begin with. | |||||||||
ETA: Also on iOS, the post button says "Post Mesage" :) ETA2: On the Private Messages screen under Thread Details, entires are listed as "private thread by with X replies." Again, on iOS. This message was last edited by the user at 22:42, Thu 04 July. | |||||||||
Is it for a game you're a GM? Player? Lurker? Have a RTJ submitted or just a plain old visitor? | |||||||||
On games I'm a player or GM of, it shows up on all screens. On games I'm not a member of, it vanishes. On the old site, it also vanishes in those games but sticks around on the bottom bar. It doesn't seem to matter whether I've got an active RTJ or not, but the one I am RTJ'd to still shows "Request Access" on the Map, Cast, and Intro pages instead of changing to "Contact the GM." Only just noticed that part. :) I'm not a lurker in any games, and there is no difference between desktop and mobile, nor is there a difference between desktop Chrome and Safari. I know I'm not the most articulate of persons, so if screenshots would help let me know. | |||||||||
They all should now be higher up on the list, think they were a bit low before. | |||||||||
Edit: Also fixed the autosuggest list for the game systems when searching for game (on the main menu), creating a game, searching Wanted - Players and editing your game details. Moved from a javascript system to HTML5. This message was last edited by the user at 13:54, Tue 09 July. | |||||||||
Currently however the site doesn't recognize the r.rpol.net domain when it comes to auto generating links in messages from URLs. | |||||||||
Search results on the main menu should also be a lot better now. Removed the old tables and created the same format as the normal game listing (with additional details as it's a search). | |||||||||
- On small screens (phones & tablets), the background / page isn't enlarged when the text doesn't fit - The display of lists (maybe only consecutive or nested lists?) is seriously messed up: https://i.imgur.com/jD8bM9y.png Regarding the list, the problem seems to be in the generated html (too many ul tags opened, not enough closed).

RPoL faqs (rubbcode) <-rpol.net https://r.rpol.net/help/?t=faqs&page=rubbcode <-r.rpol.net Is it the "www"? https://www.imgur.com https://imgur.com/ nope! | |||||||||

HTML-based or HTML-wrapped tables seem to render okay, but bare Easy Tables and Grids do not render their line that I can see. This message was last edited by the user at 00:47, Sun 14 July. | |||||||||
See if character sheets are better now. It was applying the wrong overall style (there and probably a few other places). The whole flow on that page for small devices isn't right, will have to tweak that. Also note that when getting really narrow that character sheets might force a sideways scroll on the entire page. I'll get a fix for that in too. r.rpol.net isn't linking because of the short "r.". Will see if I can tweak that but want to get a much better link detection in place so will take a while to fiddle. Easy tables/grids I haven't paid any attention to yet so will have to give some love to them. | |||||||||
While looking around I found another character's sheet (in one of my games) which is very wide which is overlapping with the the right hand sidebar menu, but I'm not sure what can be done about that as I don't think we can call that a coding problem - either live with it or set a maximum character sheet width ? | |||||||||
I think that's what I did anyway. (c; I'm current changing a bit with the flow, getting rid of left floats and replacing them with inline blocks (for those in the know) which improves some of the layout and the logic behind it. I would use "flexbox" but 95% browser support is too low and I can do it with inline blocks and some floats fine, it's just easier with flexbox. That's a long winded way of saying I'm adjusting a bit of stuff so have taken a small step backward, once I get that sorted then I can proceed with other fixes. | |||||||||
Please let us know when to check again... I checked just now and bare Easy Tables and Grids are still not rendering lines. I figure you may not have gotten to this yet, or my browser (a Chrome derivative) is to blame. Thanks, D | |||||||||

Not here to argue, but: They may be "just borders", but those borders are part and parcel of how Easy Tables and (especially) Easy Grids are supposed to work. I know of no way to turn off the borders except using the responsive site, and I'm pretty sure that's not by design, hence my interest, and my reports. There are numerous character sheets and other documents in Heaven - Gaming Resources that depend on this functionality. | |||||||||
It's the same for a table: by default, it should only put stuff in cells. Everything at the top of the cell, with the text left aligned, the cells just as big as their content, etc. But if you want, you can center things, resize the cells, have some span multiple columns or rows...or have borders. Which is exactly the case for the tables on wikis for examples. The fact that on the main site you have borders by default is the problem, not the other way around. It may come from the fact that it's not easy to define what the border is supposed to be, so a choice had to be made between border or no border. And maybe it's a choice that will have to be made again. And there are arguments to go both ways. | |||||||||
HTML-based tables should work the way they always have. Easy Tables and Grids are a technology unique to RPoL. Two different things.
Not really. The whole point of Easy Tables was to make it easier to make tables without having to learn HTML. As I said before, anything you can do in HTML elsewhere you should still be able to do here. The standard in use, by the way, is XHTML 1.0.
I would respectfully submit the above assertion to jase for evaluation. We disagree. | |||||||||
Character sheets should now scroll rather than force the content wide. Individual elements within the sheet or the entire sheet might have a scrollbar left/right depending on the element. Easy tables and grids should also now side-scroll in messages and grids shouldn't reduce their width to try and fit in with the content Speaking of, I appreciate the enthusiasm around easy tables and grids. The simple fact of the situation is that the main website currently renders borders and I'm not about to change how they work. I can't make such a wide retroactive change and exclaim "surprise, all your old tables no longer have borders!". With that in mind you should now find your easy things now have borders. | |||||||||

Thank you, jase. Is there a trick to getting a new color scheme to render in the responsive site? I've changed mine a number of times (I prefer a dark red scheme for use at night), but I seem to be stuck with the same old default pale blue set. (Flashpeak Slimjet Version 23.0.9.0 (based on Chromium 74.0.3729.108) (Official Build) (64-bit) under PCLinuxOS 2019.02...) | |||||||||
I think we've previously discussed schemes in this thread, they aren't working as I don't want to constantly update 16 themes. It's all fluid at the moment so I'm just sticking with the one theme. You can however create your own custom theme, just be aware that it might quickly get outdated (but I'm ok with that as now you have to edit it rather than me! :) | |||||||||
Thanks. Just to be clear, <table border="0"><tr><td>blah</td></tr></table> means to wrap the Easy Table/Grid content with the table border tags to control display width of border lines, as in: <table border="3"> <tr> <td> | Some quick Easy Table Content here | | </td> </tr> </table> would yield: and replacing the "3" in the above with "0" would not draw border lines at all. Neat! I'll add this to my articles. |
