Thanks for fixing this problem, but now there is another. When I "Like" a post, it just takes me to another page. It's a white page that contains nothing but this text.

{"toggle_action":"add","toggle_post":"236712"}

I mean it registers the Like, but I don't like being taken to another page.

@lejend The staff is apparently aware of both this issue and the issue that the shortcut buttons in the editor-view don't work. We will just have to be patient.

Sorry about that, things should be working again. I didn't adequately test things with one of my changes.

A recorded game tool on the forum is now avalaible. Whatever game posted in attachments on the forum will automatically be displayed to recorded-games.php where you can sort all recorded files you want and download them easily.
This tool is compatible only for 1v1 games on both ESOC rated maps and UI maps (you can play on FFA in UI maps with obs, it will work still).
The tool is compatible for RE and ESOC patch.

An aside cool effect of this tool is that recorded games files in attachments will automatically be renamed with the pattern :

Code: Select all

Player1_Civilization_VS_Player2_Civlizaion_Map.age3Yrec


Please post a message here if something is bugging.

Note: I've added retrospectively final and semi-final games from spring 2017

Can you add an option to hide or minimize subforums? Because I don't like scrolling too much to get to Off-Topic. :cry:

You guys may have noticed the header changed slightly.

- Reduce the banner height to just fit the logo
- Move social icons to top bar, removed dedicated social bar
- Move rarely-used items from the top bar into the hamburger menu
- Extend hambuger menu popout to be full page height
- Make social buttons highlight with respective platform colors

This reclaims about 80px of actual content space, or ~8% of a 1080p screen (and more on smaller resolutions). Also helps to reduce clutter in the top bar.

When you hover over the social icons, they seem to have 2px too much height. @musketeer925

Edit: All icons, actually (except notifications). Perhaps it is supposed to be that way.

Yeah I am actually fixing this right now, I had made a commit to fix that last night but it didn't get merged properly. Thanks!

Edit: done. Also sneaked in a CSS change to fix the pesky serif font on the Like count. As per your edit, I fixed the social icons but not the others as they're actually different CSS (it's kind of a mess). The social icons were worse than the others though. I can't seem to get the others quite right.

Which icons have issues?

Also, not sure if this is how the twitch streams list should look like.

There should probably be some spacing/padding around those characters.

And everyone likes cooking more than cleaning, haha.

@Dolan yeah that could use some work. The issues we're talking about in top bar isn't the icons per se, but the size of the links on hover. The Home/Forums/Unread and UCP dropdown are all a little taller than the bar itself.

@musketeer925 It makes sense to be so, because the links assigned to those buttons have a padding of 17px 10px, which means the height includes 17px*2 + font size (13px, inherited from the body). You get 47px, when the container, the top bar, has a fixed size of 45px. Also links have a min-height of 45px, which means they might get adjusted to a higher value.

Try this, change the links properties to this:

Code: Select all

.Navigation__link {
    display: block;
    height: 45px;
    line-height: 45px;
    box-sizing: border-box;
    padding: 0px 10px;
    color: #ebe5b9;
    vertical-align: middle;
}


Then you could re-adjust the social icons to this setting:

Code: Select all

.Social__icon {
    padding: 17px 10px 14px;
    color: #ebe5b9;
}


Though, personally, I don't like this solution. Both types of links should be included in a flex container, this would make using padding to fix issues of alignment unnecessary.
Still, it seems to work, so it could be used as a temporary solution. I would rework both to use a flex container, though.

Just want to say AMAZING job on everything, especially lately. The "My ESOC" is really incredible, like top of the line web tech. Its insanely cool and useful. I even bet you are thinking of ways to automate the map vetos (I suspect you have to manually do that now)

One thing: with AOEO showing up again, can we get a twitch stream sidebar for AOEO, because the one for AOE3 seems to help viewer count a lot, and on the AOEO streams its kind of hard to get high view counts currently. thanks again guys

Why were the cool logos (orange 3 lines for aoe3 and blue circle for aoeo) replaced by the white colored ones? Please dont tell to match the site consistency. The earlier logos looked much much better :D

Mostly because they were perceived as annoying when browsing the forum - they stood out too much. I also disagree that they looked better. The AoEO icon might get replaced by one that better represents the game (e.g. the Greek shield that we have as forum/topic icons in the AoEO section).
