Hi

I ran the upgrade script from my EasyPHP test forum (which was running 2.6.2 I think), and it completely changed the look of the front page:

before

index.php?t=getfile&id=1122&private=0

after

index.php?t=getfile&id=1123&private=0

(don't pay attention to the data displayed as I didn't have both forum synchronized, and I removed the names from the people appearing there). Loging into the forum does not help either, everything remains shrunk (variable-width in fact):

index.php?t=getfile&id=1121&private=0

If I import my 2.6.0 stable data from the forum running on our server, then it works back again. This seems to be a problem about templates (I did customize the index template to add the red messages but nothing more I think)... Am I doing something wrong ?

Thanks !

If you do not see a "shrunk" layout on this forum it is likely to be a problem with your customizations. If you do see a shrunk version, please tell me what browser are you using.

I do not see this shrink with this support forum (and I'm using mozilla 1.6 under WinXP).

The only customization I can remember is this one, in forum_with_no_view_perms under index.tmpl:

<tr>
	<td class="RowStyleA" width=1>{TEMPLATE-DATA: forum_icon}</td>
	<td class="RowStyleB" width=1></td>
	<td class="RowStyleA" colspan=4>{VAR-HTML: r[13]} (<span style="color: red;">Vous devez &ecirc;tre connect&eacute; pour
lire ce forum</span>)<br />{VAR: r[14]} </td>
</tr>


This was before the upgrade, I don't know what it became with the upgrade process.

The upgrade process probably just removed the red span, since the index.tmpl was changed since 2.6.2.

Have you tried replicating the problem in other browsers such as IE and/or Opera?

Okay I ran again the update script on my test forum and saw the forum_with_no_view_perms had become back

<tr>
	<td class="RowStyleA" colspan=6>{VAR-HTML: r[13]}<br />{VAR: r[14]}</td>
</tr>


I redid my changes with the red message in the template editor (exactly the same as in my previous message) but it does not fix the problem. Here is what I get when I'm disconnected :


index.php?t=getfile&id=1124&private=0

So that's not the problem I think.

Well that's very strange. I loaded the same page in IE and the forum looked normal. Then I clicked reload (without changing anything else from the time I took the last screengrab) in mozilla and the problem disappeared !?!

Hmm.... could you give me the URL to your forum so I could try and see if I can reproduce the problem with any of the browsers I currently have.

I'm afraid this would not help because the forum on our server still runs version 2.6.0. I'm doing all this in EasyPHP and you wouldn't have access even if I allowed it locally because of the school's firewall.

Now that I think of it, I did not run the consistency checker after the upgrade script, maybe that could explain ? I have serious doubts about this but...

That's highly unlikely since consistency checker does not modify the themes. The reason you initially may have seen a "shurnk" page is because in new forum width is set via a CSS parameter, while older layout used width="100%". Since older CSS file (which you browser probably had in cache) did not have the needed style you ended up with a shrunk layout.
