- I was labelled as "guest" here although I was logged in.
- The thread view counters don't seem to work.
- The posts per day figure in the profiles is too low.

Did you log in before posting or did you enter your username and password on the posting form?

Edit: Just happened to me, too....

Seems to work now. It was an old database field I removed which got in the way.

Fixed. The culprit was a mix of different time formats. In fact, I'm surprised it returned any number at all. An example (with values) of what I had written (in fact, I just want to use the code tag for the first time):

Code:
  $perday = 4587/((1159297764-2002-09-04 16:25:46)/(60*60*24));


Ok, '2002-09-04' (which is a date in case you haven't guessed) can be interpreted mathematically, but what about '16:25:46'? Now I'm really curious how PHP is doing maths internally ;)

Heh, it seems I simply forgot to implement that :) Did it now, it was only two additions lines.

Looking nice, one thing I notiched though, the top buttons like the reply buttons work (although the clickable area is somewhat shifted to the left, not right over the buttons), but the buttom once do nothing.

I'm using IE6 when typing this.

Yes, confirmed. Problem is a bug in IE6: It always puts dropdown boxes on top of everything else, no matter what's been set by the webmaster. Only thing I can try tonight (and then, I won't be able to test it) is moving the two elements a little so that they're not on top of each other anymore.

You should increase the font size (especially within the actual posts), the current size is very hard to read.

I like it this way, but it is a case for different 'skins', a feature I already implemented. At the moment, everything is 10px per default and 11px in special cases (for example the posts). Which size would you prefer?

Setting the minimum font size in KM (mozilla based browser) to 13px looks good in the posts (although it makes most other things on the page too big). I would say to set the text in the posts to 13 and the rest more or less as-is, but take the 10px things and move them up to 11.

I'll create a new skin and set everything to 11/13 tonight. Will let you know when it's done.

Done. Go to your profile (top right) and choose the style 'bigfonts'. Let me know if anything looks wrong.

Edit: Actually, don't bother. I looked at it a little myself, and I think you're actually right. I made this one default, in case anyone prefered the smaller fonts, please choose it in your profile.

The "Featured Games" sections looks smaller than the other boards and it's new or my low perception. I'm with Opera 8.54 in Windows XP.

Well, reloading didn't solve it, but posting did and helped me to find that I can't edit my own posts.

Oh, damn, I broke that last night. Trivial fix, will apply it tonight...

...the problem is that it works as long as the word 'index' is present in the browser's address line. Last night, I forgot that this isn't always the case ;)

Just on the comments or also on the actual forums? The first I know about, the latter would be new to me.

I just tried it in this thread, and it wouldn't let me.
