- Fixed visitor bar icons sometimes getting hidden behind page content (Desktop)

Hey there, thanks foir working on the issue, sadly, it happened to me (for the first time) a moment ago, on the recent status updates pages:

It's behind the search bar.

By the way, I have good reasons to believe the new country flags are wrong. Some are broken images, some are totally unrelated to the actual country members used, and some are even unknown flags.

Broken Serbia(?) flag

The reason for new flags being incorrect is that the filename of the flags are now ISO compliant where they weren't previously - so it may lead to the incorrect country showing or a broken link ( though a lot will be correct by chance) until existing users fix it as the filename to the flag is held in the users profile. Also some users used an incorrect country flag to show a plain white flag or IDIOT label which are no longer available and instead will show the proper flag of the country they chose.

Quick Profiles don't display age and gender anymore for some reason.

Oh, I thought that was an intentional theme change, not a bug.
Awesome that its back! ^^

One thing I noticed was that some flags are broken, like antarctica.

Yep on mobile. Sorry I should probably check what the site looks like on desktop before asking for features!

I've added this feature.

 

[Seriel]

At the bottom of "Postings" on profiles, there is the next and previous (As well as numbers) buttons which scroll through profile comments.
I expected them to scroll posts but they just boot you out of the posts menu and go to the next status update page

This does not happen on the old themes.

another suggestion:
how about separating PMs and Alerts on the Notification Badge (if it's possible)?

Current:

New:

how about implementing browser notifications? I know there are plenty of people wanting this, as there are several programmes on several platforms for this, but there's a limitation where the content cannot be displayed or the notification will be marked as read (iirc), but with native support, this may not be a problem, and we'd get our notifications immediately, even if Temp isn't open on a tab, and even on mobile!

On portrait mode on mobile, the "tray" at the top will occasionally extend to the right further than it should, which makes scrolling annoying since the phone will also try to scroll horizontally

It's a minor complaint but a bit of a nuisance

Would you be able to provide a screenshot?

Would you be able to provide a screenshot?

That's the default size the page opens at. I THINK it's caused by the thread name or section name being too long for the screen, but it doesn't happen in every thread

Edit: also, when I scroll down while the page is doing this, the tray scrolls with the page for a bit (instead of staying at the top), which is kind of annoying

Can you be patient?

There is a very weird thing I have noticed.
This happens both with the old and new styles, so I guess it would also be feeback for tempstlye 2.

You see this post here: http://gbatemp.net/threads/is-clannad-a-good-ánime-to-learning-about-the-meaning-of-lífe.471711/#post-7341439

Well, if you observe it starts with a "No." sentence.
If you look it in a PC it reads fine, but for some reason if you look at it using a smartphone the "No" is gone from the post (it starts with the point, looks weird), this kind of changes the meaning of the post or makes it difficult to get the same idea. That alone bothered me a little, and could be fixed easily just by perhaps adding a couple of enters, but then I realized "hey, this is a perfect sample for debugging" and decided to post the feedback here without editing the post.

For what I see the "No" disappears if seen in vertical orientation, but is there in horizontal orientation.

PS:
Tested on PC/Windows 10 using Chrome: it reads alright

Tested on a Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge latest firmware with:
Samsung Internet <vertical>: The "No" is gone.
Samsung Internet <horizontal>: The "No" is still THERE.

Below, pictures showing the problem.

Spoiler: Pictures showing how 'No' disappears based on the orientation

Just a idea, nothing to do with the change of style - can we have a "Cancel" or "X" button on the reply box? Often I start writing a reply and think better of it. If I just leave the page, then it will still be there next time I go to the thread and gets in the way if I want to reply to someone. When I change my mind about replying I usually highlight the whole thing and delete it, then save the draft, but I'm not sure if it even works (haven't tested properly, but sometimes my old replies are still there, not sure if it is because I didn't delete it before or if the delete & save technique doesn't work). Obviously people got along fine without it for many years, so not too important. Just something I would find handy (hopefully others as well).

Edit: Three more things:

• My flag is still wrong (and I assume the other wrong flags are too)
• Can the Message Tools not be hidden behind a drop-down box if there is enough horizontal space to display them each individually?
• Feedback: I like how you can see someones likes & posts directly on their reply without having to go into their profile!

Edit 2: Thanks for adding buttons to go back to the forum from the bottom of a thread page! However on mobile the name of the forum is truncated when there is plenty of room:

To fix your flag, go to settings and re pick your flag.
