I should have just said something like 'it would be awesome if we could set the max width for forum posts in our control panel' because the thrust of my request was on forum width, not on the sidebar (regardless of how I never once complained about the sidebar, ahem!). I should have posted this in the other thread, sure, but I thought prophet's idea here about a user cp option was excellent and I wanted to echo it. And the only reason I repeated it was because I already had another issue to point out, not to be annoying.

So: sidebar option would be cool. Max width function would be awesome.

Hey, is there a chance you can consider moving around the "forums" submenu to display the forum subsections before the Chat and Social Networking/RSS?

When I mouse over forums, I want to go to forums, and it takes more time to mouse down to where the forum subsections are listed at the moment because they're at the bottom of the list.

Regards,

Well, personally, I don't think it's that big a time loss.

But I would like to make it so that the menu doesn't drop down just by moving the mouse over it. I just click on it to go straight to the forums. Having it drop down is kind of pointless, and sometimes, it causes Firefox to hang.

Maybe make it so that you have to click open the menu instead?

The forums text right under the logo is actually a link, you can click that and get straight to the forums, then nav on from there.

Has anyone mentioned that on Internet Explorer (How I loathe thee), the menus that pop up appear OVER the section links, but on Mozilla Firefox, they don't? this makes it hard to click the section links, although I have found a way to click them even with the menu blocking the links.

Can we please, for the love of God, get a home page button? I know I brought this up before, but it seems rather silly to allow people to enter their home page URL, but not provide a link so other people can actually visit it. We all know how lazy web surfers are, and the chances of anyone digging through a member's OCR account pages to find out if they even have a home page, are pretty damn slim.

We used to have one before the vbulletin changeover. Please bring it back.

Edit: Fixed my botched English.

Agreed on bringin' it back. Never liked it disappearing in the first place.

Did you like how I slaughtered the English language we've all come to know and love? That's what happens when you type while still waking up. It was so bad, I had to go back and fix it just now :lol:

On the chat applet page in the navigation links that appear in under the page title, the link back to the chat info page is broken. It instead links to http://ocremix.org/community/chat/, which 404s.

The dropdown navigation tabs on the top of the page hide behind the Java applet as well. I've tested it on Chrome 3.0 and Firefox 3.5.4.

The chat applet also refused to connect, but that's probably because I'm at work right now. :-P

The links to the info pages in languages other than English are garbled, and the ones for Spanish and French don't work (the one for Japanese does, and all the characters show up correctly on the Japanese pages).

Firefox 3.5.4, btw.

It's a character encoding issue. The page's character set is Western (ISO-8859-1), but the non-english text uses Unicode characters.

Here are the corrected phrases in Western encoding. (I'm not sure if this'll display properly, so here goes nothing)

Ditto for IE 8. I see jmr's text fine, though.

{edit} - The text is also mostly fine on the front page. Only the Japanese is a little weird. The two hirogana symbols show up fine, but the kanji symbols show up as boxes. I wonder if this is related to the other problem I mentioned.

Made some changes; still trying to fix the links themselves, but the text was reduced down to language codes, and I added a meta tag that I *think* has fixed the issue with the dropdowns hiding the links - can you confirm, Mr. Keyn?

Seems to be. I'm not on my own computer for a time, though, as my video card (or slot) died.

{Edit} - Tried it on my work computer and it's not fixed. Actually, the problem has migrated to the front page now.

{Edit 2} - Scratch that. My work computer is IE 7. The problem still exists, but it's on an earlier version.

Why don't you do what you did for the Japanese page, i.e. not use any non-english letters in the url? Instead of "http://ocremix.org/info/Category:Información_en_Español", you could use "http://ocremix.org/info/Category:christwheredidthesepeoplelearntodrive" or something.
