Jason Carr Posted February 18, 2021 Share Posted February 18, 2021 Hey all, I just upgraded the forums to the latest version of the forums software. It was a major undertaking, so let me know if anyone notices any issues with the new version or the updated themes. It is worth noting that if you were using a theme other than the default (LaunchBox Invaders), you'll most likely need to select it again via the Theme drop down at the very bottom of the page. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DOS76 Posted February 18, 2021 Share Posted February 18, 2021 not optimal but if you highlight the text like you were going to copy it it is legible Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr. RetroLust Posted February 18, 2021 Share Posted February 18, 2021 I think i've found an issue, when in unread posts page on a tablet I can't find the link/button to set option mark all as read. It does work on pc though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scotsman Posted February 18, 2021 Share Posted February 18, 2021 I'm having a problem with the themes. It doesn't matter which one I select, I just get the dark grey theme. Other than that, everything's looking good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DOS76 Posted February 18, 2021 Share Posted February 18, 2021 yeah I set the Zelda theme and its working here too. May be browser specific what browser are you using? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jason Carr Posted February 18, 2021 Author Share Posted February 18, 2021 Just fixed the code issue. 1 hour ago, Mr. RetroLust said: I think i've found an issue, when in unread posts page on a tablet I can't find the link/button to set option mark all as read. It does work on pc though. When on smaller screens, the Mark All as Read feature is moved to the hamburger menu (just how they build the new version of the forums). 11 minutes ago, IainSA said: I'm having a problem with the themes.

Maybe try pressing Ctrl+F5 to force a refresh of everything? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just tried that and still no go unfortunately The only other thing I can suggest is to clear your cookies for the site (which will make you have to log back in). Other than that, I'm out of ideas. I've tested that in Chrome without issues, so it seems like it must somehow be a system-specific issue. On second thought, I might know what's going on. Just had a thought. What is your resolution? If it's too low (lower than 1600 pixels across), then it won't show the background for readability reasons. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scotsman Posted February 18, 2021 Share Posted February 18, 2021 Tried clearing the cookies for the site and it's still the same. One thing I've noticed is when I select the Launchbox Dark theme I get the opaque banner at the top, and when I select any of the other 3, I get the transparent banner so there is some sort of change happening, it looks like it's just the background image that fails to load. My resolution is 1920x1080 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although my resolution seems to be high enough, after reading this I messed about with the zoom on chrome and found that I need to go to 75% or lower for the background to show, anything higher and it's just a grey background Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
