Firefox don't like teh boards
« on: June 15, 2011, 01:20:45 PM »
For some strange reason the forums don't load correctly for Firefox. I noticed it started doing this after I uprade to version 4.0.1. Is therte some kind of compatibility issue with the new version?

The forums display fine in Opera and Internet Explorer.

Here's a screen shot.

If it's working for you in 4.0.1, there's something wrong on my end. I didn't add or delete any type of Firefox extensions or changed anything in the options area.

Anyone have any ideas how to fix this?

It works for me on Firefox Mac and PC.  It looks like it's not reading the style.css file.

View > Page Style > Basic Page Style

The page looks better using that method. I hope they put out an update soon, so it can read the style.css file Arbie was talking about.

So you're not having this problem on any other websites?  I don't think I've done anything here recently that could have caused this to happen.  Maybe clearing your cache might fix things.  You could also try switching to a different theme to see if you're still having the same problem.

What does it look like now?

When I changed it to basic style, it looked like what was in the picture up top but with a white background. So I went into the forum layout option in my profile and changed it to the default layout. It looks better than it did before. I do not think it has anything to do with any changes RBCP made to the forums. Other websites display normal after I upgraded my browser.

I'll stick with the default layout until Firefox makes v4.0.1 compatible with the boards. If it's my settings, I'll play around with this weekend.

Speaking of layouts, whatever happened to the orange color layout that was around in 2006 or 2007. Can't which year it disappeared?

Try logging in with this account:

name: testuser
password: testuser

Does that account still give you display problems?

I don't remember an orange layout.  Are you thinking of Cal's forums?  I remember my ugly maroon layout and my ugly brown layout before I switched to this Black Rain theme.

It still gives me display problems. It has to be my settings. I probably changed something on my browser. Sometimes I change something on a piece of software and don't know who to fix it. I usual don't reading the manual first.

I'll stick with the default layout until I play around with my settings.

As for the old layout I think it was the brown one I was thinking about. I never posted to Cal's. I remember lurker once in a blue moon. I register on these forums after you created them.

Update: The board is displaying correctly. For some reason the Ad Block Plus extension, when turned on create on conflict to make the board display like it did.

I turned off AD Block Plus for this site and all is clearly well.
