Spawnday/Spawn Town Field Missing, and Skill Fields Shifted

Postby MonkeyPants4736 » Tue Jan 12, 2016 11:07 pm

Since the game lock a little while ago, the entry near the top of each character page is missing where it used to show Spawnday and Spawn location. Additionally, the listed skills for each character are shifted to the left side of the page. In case it matters, I'm on a Mac.

And didn't there used to be a search field in the activity tab?


Edit: The Title space and upload image buttons seem oddly aligned when going to create a note as well.

Did people actually use that? No idea if it's a bug, but I wouldn't have noticed.

Yes lol

Also the buttons on the character description page (whisper, hit, point, etc) are all shifted waay left. Don't know if that's intentional either.

What did you use it for? I can't even recall what it did. I guess if I really couldn't find a project I'd just ctrl+f.

It was from back before the activities page displayed every project.

I guess QA and release control are going well.

For me (in Safari on a Macbook) a lot of things are slightly out of line now, some more than others.

The Location page is totally screwed up :P I'll maybe add a pic later if the hosting service will work...

Also, the "player info" box at the top of the player page has had all shifted to the left (and below).

Also, the animals pages (hunting and domestication) have had everything shifted to the left (and below)

I seem to remember that for the past two years I always increased the size of my talk box vertically to make it easier to type. Am I imagining this? Someone tell me this was a thing where you dragged the lower right corner to make it bigger both horizontally and vertically to have more space to type in.

Yepp, the place where you used to be able to grab it is still visible even, for me (probably depends on your browser, for me it's two little lines in the corner), but I can't make it any larger anymore.

The "talk to all" button has shifted a bit left as well, maybe it shifted over the grab thingy so you can't click it anymore?

I honestly had no issue with the former way the interface was on mobile devices. Was just easier for me in quite a few ways. Main thing I wonder is there a way we can change it back to the previous interface like a skin or no?

Greek said part of the reason was that not having set mobile capabilities put us lower in search engines; better SEO means more players (hopefully).

I usually wasn't able to do that vertically, only occasionally, and I can't remember what made it possible on those occasions :|

I just want to report that I'm going to have to spend several hours fixing my custom skin, which is thoroughly broken now.

I'm okay with this. I find writing CSS to be like playing Sudoku or things of that nature.
