Change 'Forum Index' to 'Home' & 'Main' to 'About us' & alter breadcrumbs to reflect 'Home' as top level breadcrumb. (I know what I mean! )

I like my file manager bigger (500px x 600px instead of 500px x 500px) as it has notes for users included that take up space. The changes for v2.3 work in v3.

Edit newpost.php & editpost.php

Newpost.php
find;

Code:



 <a href="javascript:void(0);" onclick="javascript:window.open('{$conf['abs_url']}/managefiles.php?fid/$fid/hash/$hash/$FBB_SESS','_blank','toolbar=no,location=no,directories=no,status=no,menubar=no,scrollbars=yes,resizable=yes,copyhistory=no,width=500,height=500,top=200,left=200,screenX=200,screenY=200');">{$lang_str['MAN_FILES']}</a>
 

change to:

I have my lightboxed images open full size instead of the default 'fit to screen'. This is because a lot of our images contain text that is unreadable unless shown full size.

The code to be edited has moved to different files in v3.

showtopic.php in forum root & common.php in includes;

Find

Code:

<script type=\"text/javascript\" src=\"{$conf['full_url']}/includes/lightbox/js/lightbox-rs.js\"></script>

Change to

Code:

<script type=\"text/javascript\" src=\"{$conf['full_url']}/includes/lightbox/js/lightbox.js\"></script>

When someone pointed out the white space between the signature area & the buttons at the bottom of the post the white space seemed to take on even bigger proportions!

Without the white space the buttons on the bottom can float up under certain conditions so it's a case of personal preference. I prefer less white space.

Fortunately it's easy to fix - show_p_row.php & showpt_row.php in the fusion template as per this post.

My custom style sheet had a missing '{'. I didn't see any problem on my 2.3 site but adding it fixed the 'user options' & 'post option' buttons along with the other linked in my last entry

Resync'd permissions as per normal upgrade procedure but I ignore the 'Fix Galleries' option under 'Resync Data'. For this you need to create a Gallery folder under 'Path & URL Settings'. This feature allows uploaded images to be stored in folders by user ID. However if your past images have been inserted using markup doing the 'fix' breaks the path to the image. As we have thousands of images posted this way we'll not be using this new feature.

A quick look around reveals an issue with the custom skin - 'user option' & 'post option' rendering as text not links.

There is a fix posted but I can't get it to work yet - even allowing for the fact the quoted 'find' code is different in Couch's fix than what I have. If I swap my stylesheet for the V3 argentum stylesheet it shows the buttons (my custom skin is based on argentum).

I've tried remaking my stylesheet from V3 Argentum using Beyond Compare but no joy yet.
The codes in there somewhere! Maybe more luck next session tomorrow.

Thought I'd record the upgrade process on my test site. I get to try out the blog feature & it gives me some notes to refer to when I do the live site!

Upgrade process went smoothly on the test site without any reported errors.

Once installed I notice my custom navigation has been overwritten. Deal with that later.

Missing text in Admin Panel & User Page again (happened on previous test installs) so followed Josh's advice. That fixed the Admin panel. To fix the user page I had to reload common.php to the language/english file as per this post.

That's enough for tonight!
