XTreme Posted September 9, 2020 Share Posted September 9, 2020 Unfortunately the theme I configured for the previous one is no longer compatible......so it means I've got to design a new one! What's new in this version? No idea....I'll let you know when I find out myself! If things don't seem to be lining up right for you.......then navigate away from the site, empty your browser cache, then come back! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

XTreme Posted September 9, 2020 Author Share Posted September 9, 2020 One thing I've found which is interesting. There's an option to create a specific mobile app.......which I've done. It's now waiting to be accepted by Google Play and the App Store! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Until then, I'll probably buy a custom one and then make custom edits Bruce. The thing is, when the software radically changes then all previous designs go out the window. If I buy a commercial one they update them incrementally so you're never caught out. If I continue doing my own I'm going to be redoing the styling every 6 months or so. I just don't have the time. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Except my custom avatar has gone a bit squonk. Is that even a word? But I'm not surprised, you designed it and so it'll be fucked come every upgrade no matter what I do Refresh the page.....now rounded again.

XTreme Posted September 9, 2020 Author Share Posted September 9, 2020 Couple of points on the new version.......if you're using on Mobile there's now a bottom bar with quick links. And for desktop, if a thread becomes popular with a lot of posts then a side bar pops up on the right giving stats and a summary: Example HERE! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XTreme Posted September 9, 2020 Author Share Posted September 9, 2020 That was sprung on me all of a sudden.....I knew a new version (4.5) was going to be released, but there was no prior warning so I could prepare. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just checked.....it's other media......image from URL. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XTreme Posted September 10, 2020 Author Share Posted September 10, 2020 Regarding fonts......I'll need to do some custom.css edits so leave it with me! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XTreme Posted September 10, 2020 Author Share Posted September 10, 2020 For any of you who hadn't seen the customiser option.........just go there and you can change the look of the forum to suit the way that you want it. The quality of the content will still be shit but at least it'll be shit that's clearer to read! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

XTreme Posted September 11, 2020 Author Share Posted September 11, 2020 I've done a custom.css modification as follows..... .ipsComment_content .ipsType_richText, .ipsApp .cke_contents, [data-pageapp="blog"][data-pagecontroller="entry"] .ipsType_richText{ color: #111; font-size: 16px; font-weight: 500; } .....which relates to the individual post views. If you empty your browser cache you'll see that the text is now bigger, darker, and the font weight has increased. Those of you using the Customiser can test by turning it off and checking if the default view has improved enough for you. If it hasn't then turn it back on again. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
