Upgrade to 1.21

Okay, here's the deal:
The hovering wouldnt work in IE6 without using javascript.

Right now, it should display in the side in IE, and in Firefox, hovering over "hover here" will display that info instead (saving room).

Ah, so it's not broken in Internet Explorer, it just works better in Firefox. That's all good.

Though presumably we'll lose the 'test' part once you're done with it.

if people want the space-saving feature they'll switch to firefox.

Yeah, I get the 'Online' text, stars, 'Group' and 'Joined' at the bottom, although I think I see tiny text which looks something like morse code or two dashes.  Hmm... now I want to switch to Firefox...

The tiny text should be not visible now if you ctrl-refresh or shift-refresh or whatever-refresh I dont know. It's the "Hover Here" text.

Everyone should switch to Firefox, unless it's not your PC (ie it's a work/school/i-cafe computer).

Edit: Also, my CMC Name has reverted to Fave Card again.

Even if it's not your PC, you should use Portable Firefox.

Also, it's odd that the links are no longer italic. This looks like this.

um i whent on my profile and it says my birthday is 4/7/1992
when its 7/4/1992 i checked in CP and its right so theve got mixed up

AHHH no,

Code point 160 is encoded in two bytes in utf-8, so E-mouse's sig that I'm getting is not valid utf-8 as MyBB claims and Firefox is well within its rights to bring out the good old question marks.
*Nightwind* this also explains why MyBB was whinging about your signature length before you switched back to the dot dot dot version.
The question still remains as to why it's sending bogus data out. Hopefully it's just an artifact of the upgrade and there's still some old non-utf-8 encoded text around, and MyBB isn't just accepting whatever data the user sends and going "looks like utf-8 to me!" (though I could forgive this transgression since locales in this day and age are more retarded than MyBB could ever hope to be).

mycode/bbcode no longer counts towards signature max size.

Just to let everyone know.

Go here and set "date format" to something other than that stupid Amercican thing. (Well, I think that may be the source of your problem, anyway.)

I still say the posting box needs to word wrap. It's a minor issue with posts this short, but imagine typing an entire RP paragraph with this!

Smilie table also could do with better spacing, and there's that clicking-back thing I mentioned (I have no idea what code would lead to such a difference and it's probably browser-dependant, but the old boards were more friendly). Well, and then there's this:

Nice. Would it be possible to get that hover on the username instead of dedicating a line[1] to it?

[1] Not to mention silly phrase, at least call it "More Details" or somesuch ^_^

Mostly just nitpicks, but for a place I waste so much time at, I like some polish.

Word wrapping problem? What browser are you using?

Edit: I can't make it hover over for the username and still show up for Internet Explorer users below.

Hey, the link thing is fixed.

Also, how are related threads chosen?

Mozilla version something... probably an old one... umm, let's see... yeah, 1.0.1.

Basically, long lines don't wrap in the post writing box and instead require horizontal scrolling. Thread READING works fine.

I added an attachment of a screenshot from an earlier version of this post to demonstrate the point.

Maybe you should update it. It works fine in Firefox

I'm not sure. I guess by title?

Also: Quick Edit and Multiquote for the win.

Probably by looking for common words.

In the duel forums, I notice threads using common words like "open challenge" tend to get linked to other duels which have nothing in common besides being open challenges. It also seems to completely fail at linking together RP threads and their associated OOC threads.

I think it may be due to only looking for threads within the same subforum.

Most things that work in firefox work in Opera, Opera has better security, Opera has a crapload of other nifty things. Pretty much Opera=own.

E-mouse's sig looks fine to me today so thankfully the encoding issues seem to be only a transitional problem.

Having tested the sidepanel in both Internet Explorer and Firefox now, I must say that I am happy with the results. Now, if only we could stop people from using so much space in their sigs, with about 5 random quotes and 3 banners all on separate lines...
