Flexile 1.1.5.1

[James]

Hi Erik, any news on the footer you originally had planned? With the Have You Met {random user}?

For anyone who doesn't remember (or wasn't around), this is Erik's original mockup to which I was referring:

Hi Erik, any news on the footer you originally had planned? With the Have You Met {random user}?

I would really love to have this - if - it is flexible and we can put anything in the footer that we would like.

 

[James]

I'd imagine it'd just be a footer template that you could populate with whatever you want.

That would be so fantastic.

Yeah, I've been planning to get around to it but waiting until this summer so I have time to learn how to write modifications. It will require a modification as I'm pretty sure it's impossible to do with just template syntax. As far as the similar threads section, I was hoping to wait until a "similar threads" feature becomes part of the XF core and then modify that, but I may write my own mod or make use of an existing mod if one exists.

I have just notice that if I follow a google translate link that the breadcrumb gets all messed up and was wondering if anyone else has experienced the same ?



Firstly I thought that it may have been a browser issue but I get the same with several browsers.

I have noticed Google Translate causes multiple style issues. I haven't tried to confirm if the issues exist in the default style.

Erik can disregard my previous post
I just had a look at google translate with the default XF style, Can confirm same result

Google Translate completely rebuilds the page and doesn't always get the the html and css declarations correct.

It's an issue with how Google Translate works.

 

[Ryan Kent]

Brett, I originally used Google Translate, but ran into the issue you mentioned. Also, anytime Google translates a page, the user gets logged out of your site, which is an issue for me.

Try Microsoft Translator http://www.microsofttranslator.com/widget/

Brett, I originally used Google Translate, but ran into the issue you mentioned. Also, anytime Google translates a page, the user gets logged out of your site, which is an issue for me.

This will happen with any translator, though, as Google's servers fetch the page, process it, and then send it back to you. Because obviously Google isn't logged in as you when it fetches the site, it will appear to "log you out." And as mentioned above some HTML might break because of the translation.

I believe the Microsoft Translator widget works by translating the page with JavaScript in realtime, so you don't run into the same problems. However, MS Translator is something that the owner of the site needs to add to their site. It's not something you can use on any site you visit.

 

[Ryan Kent]

Erik, it either doesn't happen with MS Translator, or if it does I haven't noticed it.

Take a look at my site. The Translator is embedded into the navbar after the Forums tab.

EDIT: My apologies, I misread Erik's post

 

[James]

It doesn't happen with the MS translator because of the reasons Erik stated above:

<div id='content' class='hasSidebar'>

did not work.

It should. Can you post or PM a link?

Check the source of that page. The content div doesn't have a class of "hasSidebar":

<div id="content" class="EP_AboutFeatures">

The proper code would be this:

<div id="content" class="EP_AboutFeatures hasSidebar">

In any case, this will soon be irrelevant. If you can wait a few days, the next version of Flexile will be released when XenForo 1.0.2 is released and will fix this problem completely.

If you need it working now, edit the PAGE_CONTAINER template, find the line that starts with <div id="content" and replace it with this:

<div id="content" class="{$contentTemplate} <xen:if is='{$sidebar}'>hasSidebar</xen:if>">

This will fix the problem automatically on any page that has a sidebar.
(Note: this is not the fix I will use in the next style update, so if you choose to apply this you should still upgrade the style when XenForo 1.0.2 is released.)

I really think this is how xF default template should have been.

 

[James]

<div id="content" class="{$contentTemplate} <xen:if is='{$sidebar}'>hasSidebar</xen:if>">

You might want to use your curlies to create valid HTML:

<div id="content" class="{$contentTemplate} {xen:if '{$sidebar}', 'hasSidebar'}">

See here:

None, except that the curly syntax can be used inside tag attributes and maintain valid HTML:

<p class="{xen:if $moo, 'moo', 'notMoo'}"> <!-- valid HTML -->
 
<p class="<xen:if is="$moo">moo<xen:else />notMoo</xen:if>"> <!-- invalid HTML -->

I really think this is how xF default template should have been.

It will be with the release of XenForo 1.0.2, although it will be done in a slightly different manner:

Erik,

XenForo 1.0.2 uses the following <html> tag:

<html id="XenForo" lang="{$visitorLanguage.language_code}" class="Public {xen:if {$visitor.user_id}, 'LoggedIn', 'LoggedOut'} {xen:if {$sidebar}, 'Sidebar', 'NoSidebar'}" xmlns:fb="http://www.facebook.com/2008/fbml">

You should therefore be able to apply specific styling using html.Sidebar ... and html.NoSidebar as the first element in your CSS selector.

You might want to use your curlies to create valid HTML:

<div id="content" class="{$contentTemplate} {xen:if '{$sidebar}', 'hasSidebar'}">

Thanks, didn't know that. Although see above. This was only a temporary solution anyways.
