Not sure really where to ask this, so putting it here:

Is there a countdown widget or code to make one? Such as a countdown to Christmas which actively counts down days, hours, minutes, etc...

Hello all,

I was hoping for somewhere you could point me to, possibly a tutorial or somewhere I can learn how to change staff colours, so for example, in a topic message a staff member is a purple colour in their text. I want to do this with code instead of having to do it from the text editor, so the code would automatically change the staffs colours to purple for example.

I posted about this a while ago, but the member just now got back to me about this problem.
One member, Dark, cannot see my posts that have the decorative borders on them. This is the info she gave me:

Desktop is Lenovo Laptop is HP
I use Chrome Tried waterfox and opal - nada
I have win 10 and it's all up to date
Catch cleared I use CCLeaner
this site is unblocked from my firewall

This is what she sees:





This is what those 2 posts look like:





I did send a guest admin and regular member account info to admin here when I first posted about this problem, but the forum shows fine for them as well as all other members/staff. It is just this one member having trouble.

Any suggestions? Could it have something to do with the java on her pc? Think that's what it is called that makes animations show I think. I know I used to get notices about updating it.
Thanks!

Description of problem

Hello,

I'm trying to use ModernBB and noticed that HTML tables look incredibly weird in posts as it completely ignores everything in the style. I have enabled HTML in both the ACP and my profile. The table codes look perfectly fine on PunBB.

It's really basic:

Code:

<table style="background: #fff; color: #000; border: solid 5px #000; line-height: 250%; padding: 60px;"><tbody><tr><td><strong>Lorem Ipsum:</strong> Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Quisque egestas leo vitae maximus gravida. Nulla condimentum, nunc at maximus ullamcorper, ipsum velit condimentum purus, sit amet ultrices elit est sit amet nisl. Maecenas rutrum porttitor augue, maximus finibus nisi. Fusce consectetur sagittis sapien vel pulvinar. Fusce non mi eget lectus tincidunt facilisis. Vestibulum ante ipsum primis in faucibus orci luctus et ultrices posuere cubilia curae; Proin in nibh neque. Integer a sagittis libero. </td></tr></tbody></table>

Has anyone experienced similar problems on ModernBB and knows how to solve it?

Description of problem

Hey there, old @forumfree member who is coming back home after years.


Well, my forum works fine for me, because I was able to create all categories and all, but I tested it from different devices and is creating problems . I tested other people's forums just to make sure wasn't just mine and was the same. Page loads well and after 1-3 seconds is cover with a dark-gray layer that blocks all activity.

It appears to be from browser's js not being compatible with js code.

My main goal is to make sure no matter how old the device, everyone has access to the forum I'm trying to build.

Is there a way for me to get access or to override or remove myforumname/serviceworker.js and https://illiweb.com/rs3/62/frm/lang/en.js ?

From other browsers (old versions of chrome mostly):






And this is how I see from my browser:

Have you cleared your cache/cookies in Chrome? I just tried and got in fine with it. That usually fixes things like this.
Let me know and if not, I'll see what else I can do. Hugs!

Ok with both Chrome and Opera I can get into the opening page. If I hit the home button …puff gone. But if I hit messages I can get them. I can see my list of favorites, but if I click one……gone again.
Right now I am on my iPad Safari and got in.

Post-head colour based on group colour of user

Hello again!

I would like to know if there's a CSS code and JS script to what I'm looking for.
I'm still customizing appearance of my forum and I want to have a background-color from group colour in the post-details info.
For example:
Group 1 have a teal colour, so the post details info have a background in teal colour. Group 2 have a yellow colour, so the post details info have a background in yellow colour. And so on, so on.

I know already that there is possibility to change strong colour from the colour of the group.

Here's the screenshot of specific area in topic to show you what I want to change.

This is that post (it's long with several images,so only SS part of it):



This is what she says:



She says she is using Chrome, I told her to try in different browsers, she says she did and same thing.
Most of the posts she can't see have decorative borders, a few do not, so maybe that is the problem?
If it is, how would I fix that?
Says she has had this problem since joining in January but just now telling me.

Today she posts this on a regular, daily posts (not a sticky or global):



Here is the post today she is talking about:



I checked her member settings and everything for a regular member is marked "Read - Write

No other member has said anything about having problems like this. Any ideas?

Hi there,

Users (registered and guests) seem to be having an issue on my forum at the moment that is preventing them from opening Spoiler boxes.

Normally, a spoiler box expands when you click on the header. However, we noticed today that nothing happens when you click on spoiler boxes all across the site. I have not made any changes recently to any JavaScript or CSS that could've triggered this issue (I'm the only one with access to the Admin Panel).

You can see this issue for yourself on these pages (among others):
Page 1
Page 2
Page 3

I noticed on a few other Forumotion sites that this does not seem to be an issue there (including the help site here).

Test:

I was able to replicate this issue on the following browsers:
Edge
Chrome
Firefox
Opera

Any thoughts would be much appreciated!

I have set up categories but they are not showing on the forum page.

1 Category entitled Rules for Posting which I want as a stand alone sticky type post.

2, Category entitles Library which I want to add articles to so I chose the option to add forums to that category. Under the Library category title, which isn't displayed, I have added 2 forums which can be seen but the 2 categories (Rules, and Library) just are not visible.

I saw a suggestion that I have to choose Display>> Structure and hierarchy>> Split categories on index>> Check Medium and Save. on a previous help note and so did that but it didn't make any difference.

What am I doing wrong please. Thanks a lot

Colored b/ strong text in postbody

Hello! I'm trying my best at designing CSS for my forum in #ModernBB style. I'd like to know what code should I use for colouring bold text in posts by groups.

For example:
Group A have colour green so bold text in Group A post is green
Group B have colour blue - bold text in Group B post is blue

Code:

.GroupAGroup .postbody strong {color: #colorcode;}

Doesn't work or am I missing something?

Description of problem

Hello, hope it's the proper place for such topic.
I'd like to open a profile field where users can simply just fill it with a link. Then i'd like it to turn into a word in postprofile and when you click it, would lead into that link given in the profile in related field.

Like, let's say the name of the field will be Journal. I want users to fill that area with their own journal page link. Then in their postprofile, it would automatically turn into word "journal" and when I click that word, it would lead me to their own journal page.

I know I can just open a field and everyone can do [url=link]journal[/url] but I'm hoping to find a way to avoid that kind of effort.

How do I change the avatar area from circle to square? I have put a square avatar but it shows in a white circle.

Please don't just put "find this in css..." as I will not know where to go to look for the css, LOL.

I did find an article in the trash here when I did a search about this but did not find anything it said to look for, therefore I could not change any of the coding like it said to do. Not sure if it was even the same version as mine.

I did find a coding area for avatars, but nothing like skouliki posted in that help thread: ".postprofile-avatar img {
border-radius: 120px; }"

I went to: Display_Templates_Profile_profile_avatar_gallery_ but did not find anything like above.

We post 10 tutorials bi-weekly and when it's over we lock the threads, then move the main tut post to the archive board and delete the individual topics where members show their results.

Description of problem

Hello Forum Admin Team,

I am not sure if you are all aware. The servers at Servimg do not seem to be in sync when I upload a photo or pic to use as icons for my "navibar". For example, if I want to upload a pic in the "Display Management" of my Risingstarclub-forum.com/Admin, I choose Upload a picture > a Pop-Up comes up choosing the pic under "Root Folder" > Grab the Servimg URL of that pic/photo > and then I hit "Save". The pic does not come up to represent my "User Group" Icon. The same behavior occurs if I use the same methods for "Publications" or "Search". Another way or method I use is choosing "See Examples" that takes me to my photo or pic library that is connected to "Servimg" viewing the pics I uploaded in a small window in the "Root" folder. If I choose the pic or photo I want to display as the "Usergroup" Icon, it will not "SAVE". I think there is a connection problem between your servers and theirs. Can you please investigate and if there is a sync / connection issue, please let me know how long resolution may take.

Hi,

When uploading images to Servimg.com, the image is succesfully uploaded. Once it is uploaded, and I'm a TECHIE by the way Not an Average User FYI, the URL img.serv it generates to copy/paste into the Admin Panel's Display / Advancement to paste the URL in one of the fields for the menu navigation like, Calendar Image, does NOT Save. I am so frustrated with this platform it is a HUGE TIME SUCK and not very intuitive. I feel like this platform operates like a 1990's type website and NOT current in the 2020's.

What type of web and database servers do you guys invest in? I have seen some not so good reviews before I tried using this forum administrative management platform. Unfortunately, you guys seem to be the only resource out there. If this is a very time-sucking absorbing site that makes it difficult for me, I'm posting a BAD Review and going elsewhere to let or warn others know, "If you do not mind having a time-sucking admin management platform, then this forum platform to set things up would be for you. If you have a busy limited schedule with a full-time job and don't have a whole lot of time, I suggest shopping for another forum platform that runs on BETTER WEB-HOSTED TECHNOLOGY!
