User/Member Profile Screen w/ Invisible Text - Bug Closed Incorrectly?

[djpretzel]

Doesn't even matter. Fix all the bugs you want, the product is FUNDAMENTALLY FLAWED and worse in almost every measurable way as compared to its predecessor, VB4, which was better than VB3 in some ways...

[djpretzel]

VB3.x was wonderful. VB 4.x was disappointing, but quite solid for forums specifically...

VB5 is a terrible mistake that should be abandoned in favor of a series of iterative enhancements...

[djpretzel]

You mean moving from VB4 to VB5 isn't supported??

Because it is, in almost every way possible other than numerically, a downgrade....

[djpretzel]

That'd be a great answer... if you had waited to go live until it was addressed....

[djpretzel]

What's the issue? First I'm hearing of it... JIRA link?

Sad...

[djpretzel]

I'd like to see the URL as well. I'm curious... if APC made such a difference, is it enabled here on vbulletin.com? Because this site seems rather slow; furthermore, most links can't be clicked when the...

[djpretzel]

I think the problem here is, once you decided to include blogs in the beta, there should have been a corresponding decision to at least do something - anything - to make them visually distinct from forum...

[djpretzel]

If the fix is that easy it should be added to the install/upgrade scripts ASAP; might seem trivial but looks quite embarassing, in my opinion...

[djpretzel]

I don't understand why it's so difficult to get the bug reopened. Multiple confirmations here, multiple confirmations on the JIRA issue, I tweeted about it (not that I expected that would have an impact,...

I just upgraded to VB4.1PL2 in my development environment, and with my custom theme I'm still having a weird problem with invisible text/UI elements on member profiles specifically. I don't have this...

[djpretzel]

Thanks for the quick response & updating the doc! As an FYI, nothing in the upgrade script that I ran explicitly *told* me I was being upgraded to 3.8.5 first - it started off w. 4.0 Alpha - but I'll...

The vbulletin manual (http://www.vbulletin.com/docs/html/upgrade) says:

the vb4_readme.html that comes with vb4 itself says:

I'm referring to the vb4 suite, but either way.......

[djpretzel]

That's an argument against NEVER releasing it as an unsupported mod, though, which I believe is the stated intention. So it's an irrelevant point to make - they've said they'd release it to the community,...

[djpretzel]

Is there even a timeframe on establishing a timeframe to release on vbulletin.org? Just release it already and let the community improve it, this is valuable development time being wasted. In what way...

[djpretzel]

I guess I'm a little confused; I think it's great that vb4 will move towards semantic XHTML, BUT the main forum listing of threads WAS tabular data, and tabular data makes 100% sense - semantically -...
