Fix for Tag Cloud Problem in Firefox 3.5

  • Jul. 7th, 2009 at 9:20 AM
UPDATE: This issue was fixed in Release 54.

As a few people have noticed, tags set to display as "cloud" rather than "list"
are not displaying properly to users who have upgraded to Firefox 3.5. It took a while to put all the pieces together, but I think I have come up with an explanation and a (cross-browser) solution. 👁 Image

pointed out this entry listing CSS changes to Firefox, which mentions the :after pseudo-class now supporting the display: property. Some CSS at the bottom of the default Expressive stylesheet that uses the :after pseudo-class to "clear" floating element also is applied to list items in the sidebar. Since Firefox 3.5 now implements this pseudo-class properly, the list elements (i.e. the tag elements in clouds) now have display: block.

So, to fix it, add this line to your Custom CSS:
.widget-list li.item:after { display: inline; }

(If you don't understand or need more information, just ask in the comments.)
In Firefox, screened comments in threads are not indenting. They therefore appear to be starting new threads, when they should be indented below their parent comments.

I've noticed this bug on my journal for a while now. I think it started when the dashed border was added around screened comments. However, I always assumed it was just a flaw in my own custom CSS, which I'd try to get around to fixing some day. Just now, though, I changed my Theme to various other Expressive Themes, and the same bug is happening on all of them.

Then, since I use Firefox, I checked in Internet Explorer, and everything is showing up correctly there. The bug seems to be Firefox-specific. (I am not sure about other browsers or previous versions.)

Here are some screen shots of the problem and more detailsCollapse )
I'm using a modifant of the Poe theme, though I'm sure this question may apply to many individuals.

I'm looking for a way to have an entry indicate exactly what level of "friends locked" it is. Basically, if I have it filtered to, for example, my Gardening filter- I'd like for somewhere on the entry to say this, so that later on if I wish to change the filter status of an entry, or whatever, I know what it is without opening every single entry one at a time into the edit page.

Is there a way to do this?

Formatting problem when there is no user pic.

  • Apr. 19th, 2007 at 12:42 PM
I've noticed a problem on the friends page that occurs when a poster has no user icon. Any formatting and positioning contained within the .user-icon div is lost. So, if you have your icons floated to the right, you'll see the user name and sometime community name stuck at the left without any padding. This would also be a problem for a community's recent entries page.

Completely Blank - SOLVED

  • Mar. 21st, 2007 at 3:09 PM
Has anyone else had this problem...?

S2Expressive, paid account.

Enough of my friends have raised this issue when it comes to my journal, and the problem is, is that they can't see my journal at at all. It's a blank window with only the background showing.

I wasn't aware of this issue because both my Firefox and IE are up to date, but it seems anyone who is using an older version of IE (as for an older version of Firefox, I'm not sure. No one using Firefox has complained yet) cannot see my entries.

Any suggestions on how to fix it? If I remember correctly, the code I used had something like escape code (?) for older browsers, but it was suggested to me by another user to remove it since it moved both my sidebars and appended it to the bottom of my journal.

Any suggestions and pointers would be great and thanks.
Hi. I have a few multi-tagged entries where the tag list is longer than the entry itself. This causes a scroll bar at the bottom of the entries. How can I get the tags to wrap within the parameters of the entry, instead of causing the entry to scroll across?

Help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

EDIT:"Show Scrollbars on Entries" is already set to "No".

EDIT #2: Using ".asset-body" instead of using ".asset-inner" has allowed me to keep the scroll on the right for entry size and has removed the scroll on the bottom. HOWEVER, the tags still bleed over the side of the entry. So, I'm wondering if there is a way to force them to wrap instead; Like 👁 Image

did in the sidebar.

EDIT #3: Take a lesson from me...watch your braces...LOL.

metadata: bold label & spacing between tags

  • Sep. 17th, 2006 at 7:34 PM
1. I'm looking for a way of fixing up the entry metadata so that the "tags" label is bold like "mood" and "music". SOLVED

2. I'd like to fix it so that if you use multiple tags there is a space after the comma between them, because currently there is only a comma.

I use Firefox, if that matters.
For some reason the developers have seen fit to yank the previous and next links out of the linkbar for individual entries. This is extremely annoying.

Does anybody know how to either turn them back on or hard code them into the linkbar?

Change to ljextras.css?

  • Sep. 7th, 2006 at 9:00 PM
Hi all..

It looks like earlier today there was a change to voxhtml's ljextras.css stylesheet which, in combination with a bit of custom CSS I've been using, rendered my journal horribly broken on IE. Now, I've figured out how to work around this, but what I'd like to know is if anybody can tell me why the change was implemented, and what the ramifications are if I override some of it myself.

Specifically, the bit that was interacting poorly with my own code is:

* html .asset-inner, .widget-inner {
 overflow-x: auto !important;
 overflow-y: hidden !important;
 width: 100% !important;
 padding-bottom: 10px;
}

Can anybody tell me what this added bit of CSS is intended to do? I'm assuming it's supposed to fix some problem of some sort, but what is the problem it's addressing?

Thanks for any assistance..

Okay, I got home tonight and my beautiful Vegas layout suddenly has horrible vertical and horizontal scroll bars on it. A short time later, my roommate's Wine layout had the same thing happen. Is there any way I can get this to go away? It looks HIDEOUS, and I'm not going to be able to handle keeping the layout (which I loved prior to this) if the scroll bars are a part of it.

Any thoughts or ideas on how to get rid of them? Something with the layers or stylesheet, perhaps?

Bug Fix: Customising Text

  • Sep. 3rd, 2006 at 12:54 AM
To the writers of the original layout code...

Almost all the text for the layout is customisable through the generic Edit Journal Style GUI interface (such as text for comments, etc.) except the text for the Permalink at the bottom of entries and the Reply, Parent and Thread text on comments. These can be made to appear along with the other customisations by putting:

into .
I'm feeling quite pleased with myself.

I've been delving into the mysteries of S2 and have been working out how to add custom HTML to a layout sidebar. The first fruits of my endeavours are now online, and I've add one of Flagrant Disregard's Flickr badges.

Here's how I put it all together...Collapse )

And here's one I made earlier.

Wow, First Post!

  • Aug. 30th, 2006 at 1:15 PM
I'm currently using the Weston Blue theme on a paid account. I tried to tweak the graphics and such by copying the theme specific stylesheet and hosting it on my server but it didn't seem to work. Is there a different way I'm supposed to go about this with the Expressive layouts?

Other things I'd like to do:

1.) Remove the tags and calendar from the sidebar.
2.) Add an additional place on the sidebar where I can include my own information
3.) Decrease the font size on the title.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!
