Core1 ported styles reading page problems

[afuna]

So in the latest code push, we fixed an issue where the "friends" terminology was still hanging around, and replaced it with "read". This caused the logic on the reading pages of some ported styles to not work right.

The most common manifestation of this is that usernames of entry posters on the readpage and /network disappear, making the page look like your recent entries page.

Quick fix, look for:

$p.view == "friends".

It may show up also in other forms such as $.view == "friends", or also $p.view != "friends", etc)

Replace that with the relevant line below, including parentheses:

($p.view == "read" or $p.view == "network")
($.view == "read" or $.view == "network")
($p.view != "read" and $p.view != "network")

PS. We also fixed a bunch of Transmogrified issues, including putting the most basic wizard options in -- num_items_reading, num_items_recent, use_journalstyle_entry_page- -, and the huge whitespace after every username in a comment. And av8rmike has been awesome at polishing away some rough spots in the Negatives CSS.

As always, we're working on fixing bugs and improving the style system. No new features until we've reached Open Beta (seven days away!), but once we're safely into Open Beta, we can focus on implementing richer features. Custom text modules come to mind (though we're not stopping there)!

ETA If your style has both, make sure that you edit both your layout layer, and your theme layer
ETA: 2010-09-07: added network

Yay! Thank you so much. :)

Thank you!

Aha! Thanks muchly. :-)

It worked, thanks!

It looks like it's still there to me, in this entry for example. I haven't done anything to the s2 code at all and emptying the browser cache doesn't get rid of it. (I'm using Firefox 3.0.8 on Mac OSX 10.4.11)

Custom text modules come to mind

Is that when we'll be able to change the font choice for text on our dwj's?

Yes, I am a little tech impaired.

I got the usernames to show up again on my reading page (after doing a bit more updating because I had figured "well as long as it still works I don't need to keep up with the changes", oops!) and now the comment links don't show up.

on my journal page:

on my reading page:

It worked! Thanks so much!!

[zulu]

Excellent, thanks, everything's back as it should be.

[tyffi]

Whee! Thanks so much!

[cereta]

Thank you, thank you, thank you for the Transmogrified fix! Yay!

[zoniduck]

Fixed! Thank you!

[ames]

Excellent, thank you! This was easy as pie.

[foxfinial]

Thanks!

I'm using a Core2 custom layer (based on Mixit), and although some of the usernames are showing up on my reading page, others are not. Specifically, usernames show up when someone has posted to a comm I'm reading, but the comm name doesn't show up. And, usernames don't show up on posts from personal journals. Any suggestions would be great!

[elizaria]

thank you, super easy to fix this suddenly :D

[musesfool]

thanks.

[htbthomas]

Thanks for putting this out here so quickly!

A couple of minor faults in the greater scheme of things, but you'd probably rather know than not...

See an OpenID user error here (from Jaybee65 re trying to type in text box):
http://artisan447.dreamwidth.org/427.html?thread=3243

And also, another OpenID thing where user icons are showing up under the user subject, rather than to the right where normal icons sit. You can see it in the comments here: http://artisan447.dreamwidth.org/427.html

Ooh, thanks. I just noticed my flist was not displying the names and couldn't figure out what had happened.

By the way, what style is the one this comm is using? Because a lot of people have it and it has a glitch where part of the text box (not the inline commenter, but the main comment page if you do more options or click the link from email) runs under the sidebar. It's been bugging me a lot because when I reply to people I can't see what I'm typing, but I was lazy and wasn't sure where to report it, so I didn't. (But I'm here now and you're talking about style bugs, so...)

[melannen]

Yay, thank you!

(Question: is using custom friendssubscription colors going to become an option in any of the standard DW styles anytime soon?)

[entrenous88]

Ack, for some reason I can't get this to work. I'm supposed to be changing it in the "Customize Style" --> "Edit your layout layer" page, right?

It may just be I'm missing something super basic. Will try again in the AM.

[kunzite]

seems the default tracking images used when AJAX does its fancy work is wrong.
tracking replaces it with instead of .
untracking replaces it with instead of .

Repeating a comment I left on dw_maintenance, in case this is a better place for it.

I was using Zesty White (which I believe is Core 2) and following the code change usernames were displaying fine, but the names of communities weren't displaying so instead of saying mark wrote in dw_maintenance, it just said "mark wrote under $list of tags" making it appear as if entries in communities were actually entries in personal journals, which is a bit confusing.

I have swapped to using transmogrified because I couldn't work out how to implement the change you're suggesting above - I could get to the advanced customisation area, but couldn't see any layout code that I could alter which I suspect is because Zesty White is a Core 2 style.
