Code push has happened!

[mark]

Hi all, I'm preparing to do a code push. You can see the latest code tour here: https://dw-dev.dreamwidth.org/214638.html

Hang on to your hats!

Edit: The code has pushed! As always, please let us know if you see anything wonky or broken and we'll get on it!

Known Issues - Fixed 'em Maybe?

* Font size was way too small. We've tweaked them to be larger, but would welcome more feedback!
* Lack of ability to horizontally resize comment area. This has been fixed, you can drag the box horizontally again like you should be able to!
* A couple of style issues have been found and fixed.
* An issue affecting some Navigation strips has been fixed.
* An issue affecting syndicated accounts, proxied images, and a couple other worker related tasks were broken. They're better now.
* We've made some updates to the design of the comment reply form, we brought back the browse button, made the subject line full-width, and some other tweaks. Please let us know what you think!
* The RTE on the old create entry form is returned to service. A few more months, that's all we ask of you old friend...
* OpenID was broken, it's back.
* Button sizes are reset to default, we are no longer trying to make things line up. Let the ziggurat design pattern live on.
* Polls should show properly sized bars again.
* Lots more Android issues, we had to murder the unused spellcheck button to make it work out. Some weird interactions with differently sized elements and our ancient HTML.

Known Issues - Pending

* Related, some fields seem to have gone emo and are putting on heavy eyeliner (have bold, dark outlines). We're aware.

All known issues are being investigated and will be fixed! Please hang tight while we work on it :)

If you are reporting something visual, please let us know what browser/device you're on!

weird nav strip behaviors:

on custom layouts it seems hit and miss (seeing some where it's fine, seeing some where it's fine and just missing the icon), but 'default' layouts i'm seeing both 'tiny icon giant nav strip' and 'giant icon floating nav strip'. i'm mainly using chrome/vivaldi.

examples:


edit - when i started writing this comment, the nav strip thing wasn't a known issue, apologies if i'm (again, lmao) making redundant reports.

[pure_havoc]

I was coming in to mention this. The nav bar is broken on every page I go to, it's just broken in wildly different ways/sizes.

I hate the comment box, it doesn't appear to improve anything, but whatever, clearly that's not changing back. But there is an awful lot of broken code everywhere, that's not a good look.

[niespodzianka]

yeah, i could probably take a dozen screencaps, it's really going for the gold for new ways to display improperly.

[coughcoughshank]

huh, I'm only getting the first navbar there.

That said bakerstreet seems to be using an old imported-from-LJ layout, probably on top of one of the hacked unofficial core1 layers, so that's probably up to them to fix.

[niespodzianka]

i didn't realize bakerstreet wasn't using a default dw layout! that could be the (or a) culprit.

[coughcoughshank]

Yeah, it's not even custom styling on top of of a default layout, it's an entirely different base, so that is likely at least part of the problem.

[niespodzianka]

oof, i stopped using those overrides ages ago on account of them being deeply borked at this stage.

[momijizukamori]

yeaaahhhh they're increasingly unsupported, honestly.

that said we found another small thing that may be contributing to the weirdness on our side, so I think Mark is pushing a change there rn

[niespodzianka]

mark is so wonderfully patient with all us complainy gremlins, lol

[mark]

Gremlins are the best, as long as you don't feed them after midnight or spray them with water or what was the third thing? flashbulbs?

[niespodzianka]

flashbulbs and sunlight, which are all dangerous to nerds.

thanks for your hard work by the way o/

[kore]

Yes, thank you to everyone for your patience with us!

[momijizukamori]

ehhh, we poked at some very old code, we were expecting a few random bits might fall loose by mistake :)

[niespodzianka]

thank you both for fussing around with everything!
