Some bugs. - Suggestions - Forums : Best Ever Albums

Hi again. These problems just keep on coming and coming. Anyway, at the top right (where it's suppose to say private messages and your username), there's nothing there. And another thing, the latest member ratings part is only showing ratings from about 10 days ago and not today's ratings. Will these bugs get sorted soon? Thank you.

This is minor, but when you insert a BEA link to an album it says "Thumbnail. Click to enlarge." even when it's already at the max size and the image that's generated by clicking is no bigger.

Thanks for reporting. I'll get this fixed (artefact from previous layout).

A minor issue, but I used to be able to customize the font size by changing the number, for example: changing [size=18] to [size=16], but now for some reason, I can only change the font size to the presets like Large [size=18] and Small [size=9]. Customizing the font sizes for poll results, lists and other posts with a lot of information can make them easier to read and more pleasing to the eye. Surprised because I thought font size was basic html.

The BBCode font sizes previously directly translated to pixel sizes, but these don't render consistently between HD and non-HD displays (text can be too small to read on HD displays using pixel sizing), so BEA moved away from using these a while ago and now uses ems instead (most people wouldn't notice a difference if fonts were sized from the pick-list, but hadn't realised other sizes were being used). It's definitely possible for BEA to add support for the missing sizes in between the existing upper and lower limit so that people can uses sizes from outside of the pick list and I'll gladly do this over the next few days.

EDIT: This is now fixed (you can now use font sizes from outside of the list - any font size between 7 and 24)

Any reason why we can no longer use font sizes below 7? It would be good to have that feature back, as it has been historically part of forum humor.

No real reason these can't be added as well but font size 7 is pretty unreadable already!. I'll add to list but really working hard on getting login issue fixed at moment.

"Latest from the forums" seems to be broken at the moment.

Thanks, now fixed (unrelated, but additional font sizes now added per your previous post).

The "Top ranked artists" page has a bug when "Show child acts" is ticked. Seems to only happen with that one ticked and only on every other page (2, 4, 6 etc)

Thanks for reporting. I'll get this fixed ASAP.

EDIT: Now fixed.

Closing this thread as easier to track issues with one issue per thread.
