Posted June 22, 20187 yr Hi, We've just upgraded to 4.3.x and I've noticed something irritating (first world problem, lol). It occurs on this board, too. On Microsoft Edge, when opening the Leaderboard or the Who's online page, the table acts like there is a sidebar, then one second later realises that there's no sidebar, and fully deploys to cover the whole page. It's hard to explain. Do you understand? Here's a video : 20180622_003611.mp4 Edited June 22, 20187 yr by xdrox
June 23, 20187 yr I see what you mean. I'm not sure, but I'd hazard a guess that it's something with your theme, since it does that on both Edge and Chrome. maybe something with your custom CSS?
June 23, 20187 yr I can confirm this on all themes. @liquidfractal it isn't a theme issue, it happens on the default theme too. I remember something about this being reported, I just can't find the topic. My site loads too quickly for this to be noticed. But if you click the leaderboard link here on IPS (provided above), it happens there too. I think it was something to do with the check for the sidebar occurring later in the loading process, and not being able to handle it (and thus set display none on the sidebar) until that point. I'll do some searches on these boards tomorrow.
June 23, 20187 yr Community Expert When that is a guest visit and the page has membergroup-only widget (like the newsletter signup) on it, then it’s known behavior of the core software.

It's due to the guest widget, it loads the site, and the sidebar, then sees you are logged in and hides the guest widget. Since there is nothing else on the sidebar in this case, it then hides the sidebar. The work around/solution is to either remove the guest widget or add another block to the sidebar so it will display all the time to logged in users.

In our instance, it was the "newsletter" widget. Thought I had removed it everywhere.

June 26, 20186 yr Author I've removed the guess widget AND the ''popular now'' blocks. Didn't solved the issue. All I can say is that we've never encountered this problem before updating from 4..2.x to 4.3.4.
June 27, 20186 yr Author It has something to do with the newsletter box. https://www.depotoir.ca/topic/19517-cest-quoi-ce-délire/?tab=comments#comment-578601 One of my user is seing it, otherwise it's invisible. Edited June 27, 20186 yr by xdrox
