    Solved Cannot access some forum boards

    Post by Elisabeth McNight November 1st 2015, 4:11 am

    Technical Details


    Forum version : #phpBB3
    Position : Founder
    Concerned browser(s) : Mozilla Firefox
    Who the problem concerns : Yourself
    When the problem appeared : I added a couple of threads, then went back to the homepage. Tried refreshing a few times.
    Forum link : http://hogwartsswwroleplay.forumotion.com/

    Description of problem

    I added a couple of threads to my forum, then went back to the homepage. I scrolled down to get to the staff board section, and the links are unclickable. I checked to make sure I was logged in, and I am. So then I attempted to refresh the page. I did it several times but to no avail. I rechecked the admin panel and I'm still supposedly able to access and mod these boards.

    Hi @Elisabeth McNight,

    After checking over the forum I noticed that the who is online image is the problem. Find this rule in your stylesheet ( or one similar to it ) :
    Code:
    .img-whois {
      border-radius: 200px 0 0 200px;
      border-right: 0 solid #000;
      float: none;
      margin-left: -130px;
      margin-right: 5px;
      margin-top: -900px;
      width: 1000px;
    }

    It's making the who is online image 1000x1000px and the negative margin is causing the image to block the categories.

    Find this CSS in your stylesheet and remove it :
    Code:
    #i_whosonline + p {
      font-family: calibri;
      margin-left: -130px;
      margin-top: -100px;
      position: relative;
      text-align: center;
      width: 1000px;
    }

    That should fix the overlapping on the who is online section. Just have to say though, whoever made the base theme did some wonky things. Huh
