Tom Christian Posted May 1, 2013 Author Share Posted May 1, 2013 Information Regarding Support - If you have any issues with this hook, please post in here and I'll help as soon as possible. - Feel free to post feature requests. I will consider every idea and if I feel an idea is suitable, I'll include it in a future version. - Please do not private message me or E-Mail me regarding support unless otherwise told. These will be ignored. - Please remember to rate and review this hook on the IPS Marketplace. Thanks and enjoy :) Note: IPB has a min-width of 960px so if you notice the width of your board not changing, it's most likely due to this.

Lab Rats Rule Posted May 4, 2013 Share Posted May 4, 2013 Well I was hoping this would help me fix my Ipad and IE 125% zoom problem. But it looks like the logo bar is what is screwing things up. Is there a way to adjust the logo by adding on to this hook? If so, this would be a god send! You know every site looks wonderful with my Ipad. Why is it that IPB sites look like cwap? I have been trying to solve this forever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I may have the answer for you in a hook I intend on releasing fairly soon :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I may have the answer for you in a hook I intend on releasing fairly soon :tongue: No I am not using the default skin which displays fine. Which proves that it is possible. It is a setting in styles css somewhere that does this. I took a seasonal skin not needed at the moment and reverted it and the problem was gone. And the logo was still there unchanged. Back to the drawing board for me. Off to play around with styles css... But thanx anyways! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saferpak 1 Posted May 4, 2013 Share Posted May 4, 2013 Dear Tom, when you build an IPB skin do you use a fixed width or percentage? And why. By the way great time saving hook. Thanks, Simon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lab Rats Rule Posted May 5, 2013 Share Posted May 5, 2013 If it's an issue with only your skin, why not report it as a bug to the author? Because it is Ibskins and they don't know how to do that or other things. Not too long ago they were telling me to make a test forum for my problem skins. How about that? Anyways, every skin has multitudes of problems. Another time they told me they couldn't help me for an Ipcontent skin problem since it was a "custom web page". (Which I found out later happened to call upon skin settings in the styles.css that were wrong. Wrong in every one of her skins! But correct in the default skin.) I had to paste the default skin over 1/2 of styles.css in one of her skins, then the other half. Then paste in quarter sections, then 8ths, then 16ths etc... It took me an entire night and I had 3 hours sleep for work! But the skins ruined one of my sites biggest draws so I had to so it. So then I also had to go into 15 skins and edit the styles.css! I can't even tell you how many times I have edited the styles.css for all 15 skins! I can't tell you how many problems I had to figure out myself I bet I put what would amount to many weeks of around the clock work into her skin problems. I am staring at a minimum of three very major problems on one skin alone right now. And I have 15 of her skins right now. They are very pretty skins and I love them, but very dysfunctional. This Ipad/zoom problem, I had since I started using her skins, and I am tired of it. It looks like I have to paste the default for many hours on end until I find the problem. Since they WILL NOT do it themselves. Plus they will not update the skins with any corrections. I told them how to fix the IPcontent problem and they never fixed one single skin in that version! So that's why... LOL.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Christian Posted May 5, 2013 Author Share Posted May 5, 2013 Dear Tom, when you build an IPB skin do you use a fixed width or percentage? And why. By the way great time saving hook. Thanks, Simon I build them to support fluid widths which naturally means fixed width will be supported as a result. The important thing is that I build them to a min-width of 960px. Because it is Ibskins and they don't know how to do that or other things. Not too long ago they were telling me to make a test forum for my problem skins. How about that? Anyways, every skin has multitudes of problems. Another time they told me they couldn't help me for an Ipcontent skin problem since it was a "custom web page".

I have an iPad 3 at hand so can take a look and see if I can fix it in an upcoming hook I'm building. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ax Slinger Posted June 3, 2013 Share Posted June 3, 2013 This Ipad/zoom problem, I had since I started using her skins, and I am tired of it. If this woman's skins are that problematic, why use them? There's tons of skins out there, and a lot off them are free. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
