Board Upgrade

So how do I remove the 171 reported content notifications that it shows on the top of the page? Is it just as easy as deleting them all?

 
I think that's one of the things that will go away once the background processes finish running over the next several days.

Crud - I know how to do this because I removed them, but I forgot.

think I went into my notification settings and changed something to 'only receive one email update per day...' or something along those lines.

Edit - yes, try going to Notification Settings and check marking the following option: One email per day with all new content from that day.'

That removed it for me.

Awesome! That did it, thanks!

 
Ok, so i've been a bit awol, but holy sh#t this looks awesome. I'm gonna be sketchy still the next couple of weeks, but I just gotta say that ya'll have done a great job so far!

 
Sig sizes: there are caps on image size per member group in the ACP.

We used to limit this by manually editing the CSS for each skin. This is a better way. Feel free to play around with these settings as appropriate.

 
Yeah, I was going to bring that up.  But I'm not sure it will work without some other intervention.  I tried to change the number of characters in the Interest field after knapp brought up how long Hooked on Huskers list was.  But it didn't change anything.  I assume it wouldn't have let him make any changes to it without making it shorter and wouldn't let any new ones get longer than that but it didn't seem to affect anything already there.  I would guess this would do the same but we can try.

 
It depends on how it's implemented. I can see how a character limit would be hard to enforce retroactively (but probably not impossible?). While the straightforward way to limit image size is via CSS max-width: or max-height: attributes. You can apply just a max height, for example, and that will scale images appropriately. 

 
I tried to set the max size for Members and Members2 to 500x200 (width x height in pixels) but it didn't resize a couple of the sigs I checked.

 
You're right. Ugh.

So I've added a CSS rule to both Husker 4.2 and Husker 4.2 NR. There's thankfully a custom.css file that isn't modified during upgrades. It sounds like it may be possible to make a CSS file theme-independent, too, and I think that could be explored in the future. It's probably not practical to avoid custom.css forever, which is how I rationalized this edit.

Anyway:

Code:
/** signature stuff */
[data-role="memberSignature"] img {
  max-height: 200px;
}



That's capped the signature image sizes for everybody.

 
Nice.  Much better.

Same issue with YouTube videos.  I posted several and they expand to the whole screen.  I changed the setting to a max of 500 pixels wide and any new post is limited but it doesn't go back and fix previous posts.

I don't know if 500 is the right number - somewhere between there and 750 seems to be about right - so if people have thoughts on that let me know.

 
It would be nice to see the full status update without having to open it in a separate window. Also, we may want to limit the visibility of status updates on the main page to one per member (as before).
