Issues with the forum

@paulakreuzer first noticed this a year ago and I reported this to Forum Admin Support back then. I’ll add your information to that request (which remains open because so far it was assumed then to be a discourse bug). Do you happen to know which version of Discourse your other forum is on?

It’s obviously related to the custom css of this forum. When using safe-mode it looks as expected:

Another issue with the CSS, the solved icon is not placed correctly. On a default Discourse instance this is positioned correctly.

There were so many issues for me with the “Fairphone-new-2017” theme of the forum that I’ve anyway changed on my FP2 browser to “Fairphone original” long ago. Using this theme it looks as expected:

IT now confirmed Volker’s conclusion :+1: They will discuss internally how to move forward, the (various issues with the) 2017 CSS will not be fixed though. I for my part will give “Fairphone original” a try when I feel like it. BTW, anyone know which is the default for new forum signups?

I got the 2017 theme after signing up, which doesn’t look compatible with Discourse at the moment.

When I try to pin a topic globally, I can set a date, but don’t get access to the time (I’m shown the grey “no drivethrough” road sign where the cursor is supposed to be). Is that for others, too?

Yes.
EDIT: But it doesn’t happen in “safe-mode” (https://forum.fairphone.com/safe-mode) . So it seems to be related to our forum environment…

Thank you for confirming. :+1: Frankly, I find this such a minor “issue” I won’t open a forum admin support ticket, not seeing much need to bother the guys with this.

And if you need to pin a topic until a defined hour you still can temporarily change to safe-mode and do it there. :wink:

Since the update I have a problem with quoting (lightning browser on a FP2).
When I select a text the quoting option appears but the text is only marked very short time. On the second attempt the text can be marked but only one word appears in the quote!
Can anyone confirm this?

Confirmed when using Firefox 93.1.0 on Lineage OS 18.1 (Android 11), not confirmed in Firefox Desktop 93.0 (Windows 8.1)…

Yes, same here. On my desktop (Linux Mint with Firefox 93) there’s no problem. It seems to affect mobile devices only.

Confirmed on latest Fennec, latest Bromite, with 2017 theme and original theme, and in safe mode.

Didn’t find any similar topic on meta, should I report and open a topic down there?

Yes, same here on 3 browsers.

Did anyone try it out on a FP3?
 

 

Yes, I had also search without success…

Yes, please!

Shall I open a ticket with FP forum admins?

That’s what I get on the FP3 (/e/OS default browser). Read: confirmed.
