[quote who="Sir_Linque" reply="9" id="2599747"]There's some sort of a bug with the timezones / 24h clock. I set my options to 24h clock and GMT +2. It is at the moment 00:50 on April 22nd. On all forums, it displays Apr 21st posts as "Today " and posts made during the last 50 minutes as "Apr 22nd ". In other words, it somehow doesn't understand that the day has already changed for me.[/quote] I'll look into the problem and see what I can fi

[quote who="Wintersong" reply="3" id="2599688"]In the Sins of a Solar Empire the "Options" text appears as white (default font colour?). Not very eye friendly for me but being a simple text... Loving the time zone and 24 hours clock. [/quote] Fixed. Sorry about that, juggling CSS files for multiple sites can be a pain sometimes :) (be sure to press Ctrl + F5 if the text is still white) Bara

Hello everyone, Another update this month, this time to add a few much-requested features. See the change log below for details. Note: If you notice any of the below features are not available or not working properly, please do a hard refresh (hold CTRL and press F5) to retrieve the latest javascript and css files. 1. Timezones! An oft-requested feature is the ability to set a timezone. You can d

[quote who="Moosetek13" reply="16" id="2598382"]Karma is as karma does. Karma is such a fickle thing. Here today, gone tomorrow. And yet, doesn't karma relate to what you do in life - in a very general way? As such, your karma rating on this board would fluctuate with how you conduct your everyday living. Said a bad word to someone lately? Karma goes down. Had a negative thought lately? Karma goes down. Swat a fly lately

I did some research and it seems to be a bug with TinyMCE (the editor we use in the forums). You can view more information here: http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=2988235&group_id=103281&atid=635682 Apparently this bug has been fixed in an upcoming release of TinyMCE. I'll be sure to update when they release the next

This is a test. Seems to be working fine for me. Try doing a hard refresh (Ctrl + F5) and posting again. Maybe your browser is still using an older version of the javascript file. Bara

Bara According to that count it says I now have 27 Karma. I too would have to say it "looks" ok but I know for the last month or more I had 30 Karma. It also says 27 Karma from 23 users. I don't

[quote who="Jafo" reply="15" id="2591354"] However, implementing a timezone selection would take quite a bit more work. Unfortunately, I don't think it would be worth the time to implement such a feature unless it is heavily requested by the users. Bara....it's been requested [by me] for 9 years. I can do it 'heavily' if you wish...but may have to exile myself for spamming....[/quote] Well, you could try carrying a ton of weight and asking then. That w

[quote who="Mumblefratz" reply="95" id="2587155"] 1. "Flattened forums" option now available.This appears to be working for me now with one minor exception. It seems that if a thread is "pinned" then it will not appear in the superior forum list. For example this thread on the GalCiv2 site does not appear in the Off-topic forum but the wincustomize thread does even though both are in the Forum Issues forum which is a subforum of the Off-topic forum on the GalCiv2 site. <b

The problem is that the clock format and timezone are hard-coded pretty much everywhere in the forums. Creating an option would mean changing a lot of code, opening things up for errors and missed sections of the site. I'll implement the option eventually, but it won't be until I have some time available to me (and with Elemental around the corner, I wouldn't expect it too soon). Bara

We are having intermittent issues with Wincustomize. Our server admin are looking into it. Bara

Double post! Ok, forum update has been pushed. Change log is as follows: 1. Fixed CSS issues for the new Wincustomize skin that made some posts hard to read due to "invisible" text. 2. Removed right click menu from the editor, now uses the default right click menu for whichever browser you're using. 3. Possibly fixed the "reply doesn't show" bug. Since I was unable to reproduce the bug I need to know if any of you notice it again. Bara

[quote who="Filthgrinder" reply="5" id="2585064"]Nice with the spell checker, I understand that Firefox will not spell check on these forums...Opera does however.... [/quote] And Chrome does too... sometimes. It's because of the TinyMCE editor, which uses a lot of javascript to get this editor working the way it does, so it confuses the browsers. The update I pushed was supposed to fix it according to the TinyMCE devs, but based on my testing it didn't. I'll do some

Hello everyone, The forums were updated today (April 6, 2010) to fix some long-standing bugs, add a few new features, and make some minor changes.
