postbit_legacy formatting issues?

[Simtech]

It's been reported on my forum as well. The page looks fine for me in IE8 but when I look at it with Firefox it drops down... though it is only the "report post" icon.

^ the issue with IE6 is a few things. The first is the use of PNGs -vs- GIFs. So make a style and swap out ALL those image files. Yes it's a major PITA, but that's how it has to be I guess (something I don't want to do but know I have to...). There are also issues with formatting with css over tables though that will be tricky to fix. Not sure what to do about them honestly.

I'm using FF on my MAC and every thing looks fine. I was so excited in the begining until I used IE6 & IE7 on Windows. Unfortunately, the forum looks miserable. Nearly nothing is working fine although I'm using the default theme with colors customization only.
To make it clear, this problem happens when the forum runs on RTL format, but when changing to LTR, i.e English, it works a bit better.

The forum members who use IE complains alot and some members decided not to visit the forum again
BTW, RTL (Arabic) is the default language for my forum.

Also the horizontal scroll bar extend to about the double to the right side when using English and to the left when using Arabic. I noticed this also here on vBulletin!

Any solution for these issues?

I looked at my site with Safari and Firefox 3.5 on my Macs at home today, and it all looks good. Hard to explain - sounds like it's a bug in vb related to Firefox for Windows.

[Darth Gill]

Yup this is happening on postbit and also with private messaging....

My forum is doing the same thing... It looks good on Safari in my iPhone but looks bad in Firefox 3.0.xx

I also have a screen cap of mine now:


I submitted a ticket which has since been turned into a bug. It seems the vB guys always say they can't see it until I point them to a specific thread, then it appears....

I am having the same issues. Mine is with the "Add Infractions" and "Report Post" icons.

Here's a peek:

If you have all default files, default style, and no plugins, then I guess you could put in a Support Ticket. (I know that everything is fine on my Gold site with all default files and styles, so I dont' think it's a bug.)

[jacobsen1]

sure do...

[Lynne]

Do you have the problem on a totally default style?
Create a new style with no parent:

• Styles & Templates > Style Manager > Add New Style
• Parent Style: No Parent Style
• Title: Default vBulletin
• Allow User Selection: Yes
• Save

Then browse the site using that totally default vbulletin style - do you still have the same problem?

I only have ONE plugin outside of the blog and CMS which is the google analytics one and this problem existed before I installed it last night...

but with that account go into the PMs folder and read the one PM. It has the same issue with the forward link at the bottom. I'd bet if one gets fixed so will the other?

[Lynne]

Yeah, it must only be an issue with the admin account because it looks fine for me.

Try this:
Disable all your plugins/products except the Blog and CMS. And when I say disable them ALL, I mean all the products on the Manage Products page (except the Blog and CMS products) AND all the plugins in the Plugin Manager (except those associated with the Blog and CMS). You must do BOTH (I can't emphasize that enough). Now see if you still have the same problem.

just checked, the report icon is only an issue with an admin account? The forward issue is there regardless.

Do you have a test account? Guests can't see the report icons.
