Maintenance 18-02-2015 Beta Live than Dead

Fengol

With the stunning efforts of @Nitrogen, the unique MGSA theme is now available!

It's still in Beta but good enough to go live with and let members go wild.

Note a special feature is the ability to personally switch between the Light (default) theme and a Dark version through editing your profile (see pic).

There are still some bugs to sort out but please report anything unexpected on this thread.

Thank you for your patience while we finalise the new theme.

Dunno if maybe some of my files just haven't refreshed yet (I did hard-refresh the page), but...

Second Elyaradine on the image not shrinking issue. Did a hard refresh and opened it in another browser.

And it would appear that there is an issue when you type type posts that are of a longer nature and take up multiple lines as it gets this really odd cursor which takes up an extra line of space like you pressed enter to leave a line of space before you started typing again.


Also the insert image code for attachments is HTML instead of BBCode.

I believe it's still there, in the drop menu when you click on your avatar in the top right.

That's correct! It's just hidden under your name :P
Also, yes the image resizing is not working for some strange reason, will take a look at it.
@Karuji, you are correct, the line-heights in the text box are waaay off, will add it to the list!

This is a little off topic, and kind of a necro, but we don't have a way to raise things like this and I thought this was better than starting a new topic.

I followed a link to an mgsa post that didn't have'd a 'www' attached and landed on a parallel version that didn't recognize my login, could we maybe have one cookie for both, or redirectiness/ url cleaning? I'm actually wondering now if the feeling of being logged out unexpectedly or "latest" being reset actually has to do with this now.

I raised something similar in the past, but it seems like it was missed.

I suspect it might not be trivial to make the login extend to www and non-www versions, but it is very easy to add a non-destructive (doesn't break old URLs) redirect that goes from one version to the other. We just need to choose which one is the "correct" version, and then redirect the other one.

The MGSA business cards have the non-www version, so I suggest we use that. In that case, just add the following lines to the ".htaccess" file in the root of the web hosting (probably a "public_html" folder), and everything should be dandy:

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www\.makegamessa\.com [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://makegamessa.com/$1 [L,R=301]
</IfModule>

dammit

Any chance we'll see the new website get finished? I mean there's been issues with not having a home page that actually describes what we do etc and I think there were other important pages built into the new site that we'd benefit from having :)

Added and fixed.
