Hi Morun,

I was experiencing the same thing, but tracked it down to a userbar image in one signature (which was causing everyone else's text to overlap their signatures as well). When that was fixed, the problem disappeared.

Your issue may be caused by something else. (But might be linked to formatting BBCodes??)

So the signature of any user can affect the appearance of all signatures if you use this mod? hm, I'll have a look into it and post any results here.. maybe have to forbid images in signatures then - not a big loss in my eyes.

It can affect the appearance of all signatures (or cause text to overlap on all signatures) which appear on the same viewtopic page.

I encountered the problem about a month ago -- and I've forgotten the precise detail of the cause -- but it definitely involved a missing image in one of my member's signatures. When I fixed that, the overlapping went away.

Of course, the cause of your sig/text overlap may be something completely different.

I couldn't track the issue down neither to broken image-paths nor to other bbcodes. Actually I still have no clue what the problem is.

I now added in viewtopic_body.html a

Code: Select all

<br /><br /><br /><br /><br />
in front of

Code: Select all

<div id="sigwrap">
, basically just pushing the signature some lines further down. At least up to 3 lines of signature it looks fine now, I guess larger signatures would still have some overlap, but such long signatures are ridiculous anyways.. so this quick-and-dirty-fix works for me.

Has anyone installed this MOD on a prosilver board with Profiles on Left?

I'm having alignment problems on viewtopic pages (postprofile is appearing below postbody and the signature), and it would help my troubleshooting if I knew whether this MOD should be working out-of-the-box with profiles on the left :)

Yes, just did it. Simple fix for it:

change:
bidi.css From:

Code: Select all

/* MOD: Sig2Bottom */
.rtl #sigwrap { float: right; }
to:

Code: Select all

/* MOD: Sig2Bottom */
.rtl #sigwrap { float: left; }
content.css From:

Code: Select all

/* MOD: Sig2Bottom */
#sigwrap { position: relative; width: 76%; float: left; clear: both;}
.signa { position: absolute; left: 0; bottom: 0; }
to:

Code: Select all

/* MOD: Sig2Bottom */
#sigwrap { position: relative; width: 76%; float: right; clear: both;}
.signa { position: absolute; right: 0; bottom: 0; }

Thanks for the help Opus & hww :)
Sorry I haven't been around that much lately.

What kind of userbar image. A "plain image", or was it some kind of one of those dynamic embedded/script created pictures. Maybe there's a script conflict.

What I know that shouldn't be happening. I had some issues before - with my own signature when using a couple of custom made BBCodes with floats etc... The only time now, when it's not setting the offset-height, is when I've embedded a pdf file (iframe or object). Cause I'm using my Mac's pdf-viewer in my browser. Works fine with Adobe reader. So it's not a bug

If you have a picture of this would be great and perhaps a post I can look at.
If it's caused by a custom BBCode - please PM me that code.
I'll see if I can recheck and verify this on a PC this week. (need to update my own board 1st)

Thanks for reporting.

Great mod! Thank you, thank you, thank you! I was afraid I would have to manually edit a ton of files. I popped this into AutoMOD and 20 seconds later all my forum's signatures were at the bottom where they belong.

No, ma'am. If you look at your post above, the signature line is a few lines up from the bottom of the post panel.

With the mod installed, the sig moves all the way down to the bottom so there's no space below it. Have a look at my Joint to see what I mean.

That works, but as it says in the disclaimer, you'll have to tweak it to fit any customized boards. The beauty of the mod is that you don't have to.
