rev 1764
(4 files, 5kb)

- Removed support for viewResults variable in polls, it was only for old SMF templates anyway. The variable is currently 'viewresults'. (Display.php)

! Fixed (again!) the viewresults button. In rev 1533, I fixed it to be hidden when actually showing results (a SMF bug). This time, I'm also ensuring that it doesn't show up at all if you don't have permission to view results in the first place (i.e. poll option is set to only show the results after voting.) Another SMF bug, if the devs over there want to fix it they can ask me for the modified line of code ;) (Display.php)

! Fixed guest showPosts when viewed by a guest. Because previously, Wedge would try to load the profile user info, fail, then load the current user info instead, then fail, and refuse to show anything. It's best to just skip most of the profile loading (including the menus) and instead focus on showing posts. Also, IIRC 'moderate_forum' as a permission implies access to all boards, so I'll be using that as a shortcut too. Maybe I should be using 'is_admin'..? (Display.php, Profile-View.php, Profile.php)

! Don't bother to show user status icons for guests... (Display.template.php)

rev 1763
(5 files, 3kb)

! Fixed terrible layout in admin's member search form. Also removed empty values, I'm not sure what they were there for. (ManageMembers.template.php, mana.css)

! Fixed homepage thought buttons (Modify/Delete/Reply) not working correctly for non-admins. At the cost of 4 extra gzipped bytes, although the code is a bit shorter... Don't ask too much of that magical tool. (script.js)

* Won't get fooled again... If someone steps up and writes a custom error message when you try to register a new member with the same name as a membergroup (rather than an existing member). Well, I don't have time for that, so here's just the !! reminder comment... (Subs-Members.php)

! Actually, that extra space was simply misplaced, rather than unneeded. (GenericControls.template.php)

But the only people who don't have access to the album are, IIRC, the Beta Testers who aren't in another group as well (i.e. non consultants, non friends.)
So they don't have access to private boards...

But they have access to the doc board, IIRC. Anyway, do as you wish..!

For a private alpha...? Where?
Maybe the documentation board, but...

I'll have a look tomorrow. Unfortunately I won't have any time to look into this tonight.
Don't worry, you'll definitely have access tomorrow. At worst I'll cook up another transmission method. (No, no e-mails!)

Only did one try... Got 86 words done, 5 wrong thanks to Milady yelling at me how "that's a stupid thing to test" and me having to reply. I guess I have similar skills to Dragooon, which is not too shabby considering I'm an old fart and he was born with a keyboard in his hands :P

Yes it's a stupid thing to test, but it's still funny just to know things like why Pete is able to post 60 messages per minute at sm.org...[1]

My bad. Redid the test without pressure and got 89 words done with 4 wrong. And I just realized I could have pressed Backspace to fix them... (Probably at the cost of total WPM, ah ah. But well.)

Oh my, I'll just close this tab and forget about it...

lol, you committed right before I did... I didn't deal with that particular bug though, it's just a commit of the bugs I personally found and fixed today.
Have yet to read the forum, and I doubt I'll be able to do much of that tonight...

rev 1762
(5 files -1, 4kb)

- Opera 12.10' latest RC finally fixed the selectionStart bug (http://my.opera.com/desktopteam/blog/2012/11/01/opera-12-10-rc1) I'd reported to them months ago. So the editor no longer requires my handy little workaround, and I can safely remove it. Although it means older versions will have the problem again, I'd rather not worry about these: most Opera users will usually stick to the latest version anyway. Power users, things like that. (editor.js)

! Fixed regression where member management wasn't correctly triggering moderation actions. (ManageMembers.php)

! ul.buttonlist was still not handled correctly. Needed an extra clearfix... Maybe it's a bit overkill though? (sections.css)

- Removed useless styling. (Wine/extra.css)

* Moved changelog from root/ to root (/) folder. I love it when I don't make sense... Anyway, the root/ folder is only meant for files that shouldn't overwrite root files on upgrade. Removed feature list because it's the SMF 1.1 version... We don't need that. (changelog.txt, features.txt)

I didn't get that in Firefox. I'm using Aurora, ie. v18, btw.

Hmm... If Chrome, Opera and Firefox exhibit the same behavior, it's not a browser bug... Rather a flawed algorithm.
Anyway-- this is easily fixed by setting z-index to 1 on #help_pop, according to my (pretty much random) local tests.
I've uploaded the fix to wedge.org, please test on different browsers and post again if you find any issues!

Ps: I'm only starting to get into the new topics and discussions on the alpha. I've been a bit busy IRL. Or maybe I just wanted to take that dreaded break...

Oh, BTW, I'm aware that this linktree is hardly going to work from the get-go on all browsers. For instance, Firefox tends to offset the rounded borders to the top (extra kudos to anyone who finds a fix to that that doesn't involve browser sniffing, because that's what I'm heading for... And even then, the problem fixes itself when trying to view the page in Firebug, yay........)

Also, Opera had issues with border-radius and the negative margin. Heck, I'm probably going to have to do browser sniffing for every damn browser, but it's still better than these annoying PNG files everyone tends to use... :P

Development blog / It only took two guys two years...

...And 2 months, and 2 days.
Okay, maybe not 2 days, more like 6, but apart from Pete and I, you weren't there to count in the beginning, were you? ;)

Just in case you aren't aware yet, I finally managed to put the finishing touches to a 'usable' version of Wedge, and released it early this morning to early beta testers.

In order to download it, you'll have to request access in the relevant topic, but since this is still a private alpha, we're going to be giving access mostly to those of you who've been following us for some time (and posting along), anyone who seems serious about Wedge and testing it.

Our plans are to release a public alpha before the end of the year (well, just in case the Incas were right). We're going to try and keep Wedge in frozen mode, so we won't be adding any new (major) features, although we do have a few outstanding features (or bug fixes) which we plan to ship before we go public. And who knows, maybe we'll have a good week at some point and will even be able to go gold before the end of the year...? Naah, can't be.

Oh... We have an answer to that dreaded question, now! :eheh:

And the answer is: right now, if you're willing to help with the testing ;)

Plugin folder is out.
Only one plugin to download for now -- the skin selector.

Alright, anyone care to share their feelings about Wedge...? Or are you too busy playing with it? ;)

Farjo have fun and tell us what you think ;)

Antes, there may be a permission problem for those who are exclusively in the tester group.

Right now I'm taking a short break. I finally was able to release a usable copy of Wedge to non-consultants. It's an emotional moment for me ;)
