EDIT: Some of the news are out dated (I think) such as
about GAE...  ::)

If there was some sort of submission system where Omega didn't have to do it manually, it might work better.

Even still, it's better than the 'ol "SMF, just installed" which became less and less true over time...

There! Complete success! Links in preview now work, as well as links in sigs!

You're welcome. :P
Now the looks are fixed could I get a reply on this:
On a different subject / request:

Could you have an option to NOT see topics you posted to before in the "Show new replies to your posts" just like you can turn off E-mail notifications on the thread?

Rather make optional and separate from the e-mail notifications though, I think. If it's at all possible.  :|

BTW thanks for the link colors!  :thumbup:

yes, the links work now in previews, even better than in real view :)

things like these:
Quote from: Omega on April 27, 2010, 07:22:03 PM

which are usually links are marked as those in previews, but not in the real view look at jda's post two before mine. The links are white :

But in a preview they are golden.

Do you mean how the quote header is yellow in preview?

Just noticed that. :o

Guess I'm not done yet.  ::)

Checked it out, that's not what we're looking for. That just makes it easier to see all the different news headers. And it's not even for our SMF version, but for the RC2. I won't update till version 2 becomes official.

Not in the previews though. It's because of conflicting CSS statements and I'll fix it soon. Low priority though...

But I'll get it done. ;)

Maybe when you start a topic there would be an option to have a certain length of text (sort of like what appears under an avatar) which can have links in it.  Then you could submit it to a moderator to be added to the master database of "news'".  The moderator would approve it and change it for grammar, and only mods (engine releases like new versions of Megaglest included) would be allowed.  You could also edit it in the same way you edit a poll; by editing the first post of the topic.

Sounds impressive, but there's no such mod unless you want to create it yourself... :(

So the quote color "works" when previewing, but not when on the actual topic...  ::) hmm...
I mean it is like that for me...
Preview:
Code: [Select]
[URL=http://img188.imageshack.us/i/ss5j.jpg/][IMG]http://img188.imageshack.us/img188/5351/ss5j.jpg[/img][/URL]
On the actual topic:
Code: [Select]
[URL=http://img690.imageshack.us/i/ss6n.jpg/][IMG]http://img690.imageshack.us/img690/6866/ss6n.jpg[/img][/URL]

Good idea, too bad there isn't a mod that exists that does that...  :|

Ultifd, the links for the quote headers are supposed to be WHITE. However, the previews are wrong because of a screw up in the priority of the link colors in the previews, it is wrong there.

Did a little mini edit before going to bed, rather than sinking the buttons I remembered that I can do better transparency now so the buttons have a very different effect to them. Here is the options menu, the camera rotates left a lot from the main menu possition revealing a desert in the distance:
(click to show/hide)
I can't see that new pic, nothing shows up when I click the "Spoiler" button. And actually, the pic I could see before, on your other spoiler/pic, doesn't show up anymore.
I thought this might be a problem with the forum's theme that omega was tweaking a while ago (I don't know if he's done with it now though) but I tried the old SMF default theme and I still can't see the pics...
So... I copied the link from your post and put it in my browser's addressbar and it worked.
So ok... this thread is on Anouncements, not General discussion but... that doesn't matter. :P

Anyone in the know why there is this problem? Is it just me? Can others see those pics on the thread?

EDIT: Now this is WEIRD! Clicking on the Spoiler button in this thread works just fine!!! Hum... I'll try clearing up my browser cache and look at the original one again... :look:
EDIT #2: Erm... nevermind... Clearing up cache, cookies etc did fix this...  ::) :-[ ;D

Well it isn't working again, like on and off...
but I have noticed these problems before, so I don't think it is associated with the actual theme...  ::)
Then when I quote the "bugged" post, it shows the pics...  ::)
I'll try to clear up my cache  ::)

Browser, OS, and computer stats please! Also, if firefox or chrome, please list the addons/extensions installed. Also, when's the last time you restarted the computer?

Any news about the sticky posts? Maybe its possible to show them a bit separated from the others if the font ideas cause too much trouble?
Or change the background color or something else.
