Screenshot 2022-04-12 at 16-55-26 Mike-on-Tour.com - Userreminder for phpBB.png

It appears to be just this code:

Code: Select all

<div class="custombg"><div class="customborder"></div></div>
but I can't find it anywhere in the template files.

First I thought it came from an extension because it is displayed right underneath of something one of my extensions displays via the forumlist_body_last_row_after event but after disabling all extensions one by one it is still there (I made the screenshot while all extensions were disabled).

I am not sure whether it is only in the latest version 1.1.8 for phpBB 3.3.7 (which is running on my board) or whether it was there before and I just didn't notice it.
And it can not have its source within prosilver because after switching to prosilver this element wasn't there.

Would you please look into that issue?
This is because you only have subforums in this forum leaving the block for topics empty.

This might be something I can fix but I will have to try and reproduce it.

Sorry, multitasking now (mostly cooking)

hmm ... Good question
I just removed a node using Inspector (FF) when viewing a category (viewforum.php?f=1).
It doesn't show up on index.php nor when looking at a normal forum.
Spelling is freeware, which means you can use it for free.
On the other hand, it is not open source, which means you cannot change it or publish it in a modified form.

First let me say thank you for this style. A few days ago I converted an old 3.0 to 3.3 and was glad to find the same style again.

I registered today to report exactly this bug (in my opinion) and my solution.

I found a second design difference, not sure if it is a bug or intended.
The forum rules are surrounded by the same border when in the forum view. But not in the topic view. Is that intended?

I added the same borders in the forum view to get a consistent design.

Ah yes I see the problem now on the category page.

Maluki's fix seems to work correctly. Rule borders will also be fixed in next version.

Thanks jrolson for implementing it that fast. I can now remove my update notes as I do no longer need to patch the files when upgrading. :)

I notice that when adding certain extensions that use Aero (such as php Arcade and cBB Reactions), it is default to a white text. It's quite hard to read on the light powder blue background. With Arcade it's not too bad (notice the white font on the four games listed in my example), but with Reactions it's very hard to see that white smiley face.

Is there any way to change it to black? Or possibly change the background color? I tried changing the colors with the color switch, but it didn't effect the white. I included two examples from my board.

You would need to speak with the extension developers about this as those extensions would appear to not be compatible with this style and need some files adding to the extension.

I did, and they told me to talk to you. :) I do find it odd that both defaulted to white though.

Oops, I meant to the Aero's creator, my bad.

Sure, thank you:

php Arcade

cBB Reactions

Edit: Arcade now has a black font, thanks to the owner who let me know that it was a .css file to edit with one line. I haven't yet figured out how to fix cBB Reactions being barely visible, but I strongly suspect that the fix lies in the reactions.css file.
