Messed up layout after upgrading

[Garamond]

*problem fixed*

[DeviantFlash]

I noticed this problem as well.

Has anyone come up with any fixes?

[Mahoni999]

this has been posted so many Times....did you read and try some Things descriped in those Treads ?

One Solution that helped many Users :

Go into your arcade skin

Search for
<fieldset>

Replace any of it with...
<fieldset class="fieldset">

See if this helps to fix your Problem.


You could also try this:

Go to your Template arcade.css and adjust a few mor Pixels
.fieldset {
padding: 5px;
font-size: {vb:stylevar font-size};
border: 1px solid #c4c4c4;
margin: 0 10px;
}

and aditional try in your skin_Arcade.php the following...
<fieldset class="fieldset">
<legend><b>{$ibforums->lang['gamebox_rating']}</b></legend>
<center><span class="smallfont">
{$rating}
</span></center></fieldset>

under this Code leave one empty Line as Space......

Thanks man. Sorry if I seem demanding, I just get a little short doing all the upgrades on one day and running into problems every step of the way.

My OCD with having things look right doesnt help.

But just for the record the <fieldset> issue did nothing for me.

I increased the margin to no avail.

Also, that code you wanted me to replace in skin_Arcade is already there. Is that the same code as line 207 in the skin_Arcade.php?

[Mahoni999]

Are you using skin_Arcade.php or skin_v3Aracade.php ?

make sure you tried first Step with the fieldset Replacement in the Arcade Skin Style that you using...

I seem to remember the field issue being the one that fixed my forum but I also needed to change a setting in the acp and that was Store CSS Stylesheets as Files? changing that stting from yes to no sorted it.

Hey, I'm going to sound completely daft now. I also have the same problem with the arcade looking a mess. Could you tell me where I can find the arcade skin and the arcade.css? :o

[DeviantFlash]

I got it. Only one little problem now. Where it says High Score Champions, King of the Arcade, etc....that text is not centered. Anyone know what I would change to fix that?

I've done this, and I've turned Store CSS Stylesheets as Files to No and my layout hasn't changed.
Any other ideas?

[Rckcrwlr]

I have to post here too.

Same issue...

[Digital Jedi]

Are you sure you edited the right arcade skin?

[BrOkEn.HaLo]

Yes, I edited the skin_Arcade.php

[SpottySocks]

Found the arcade skin and edited it. No change though. Where can I find the template arcade.css? Did a search and no find, but it's probably there somewhere!

Style Manager>Your Style>Edit Templates>CSS templates>ARCADE.cssThanks for letting me know, problem is I still can't find it. Screenshot attached, also same for the default.

[BrOkEn.HaLo]

Sounds like you didn't upload everything. Double check and make sure you've uploaded all your files. If that's not the problem then I don't know what to tell ya.

[Digital Jedi]

I just realized that some of you seem to be changing one instance of <fieldset> to <fieldset class="fieldset"> in skin_Arcade.php. You need to change EVERY instance of <fieldset>.

Looks like you were right. Re-uploaded and changed skin_arcade.php again and now all is fine. Don't I feel like a dumbass. :D Thanks! :)

There is no <fieldset> found in my ARCADE.css. There is fieldset without the brackets???

The <fieldset> is in your skin_Arcade.php, not ARCADE.css.

As Jedi said you need to change every <fieldset> to <fieldset class="fieldset"> in skin_arcade.php

[Rckcrwlr]

Woo Hoo...it looks better

Thanks

One more question...can I delete the game files from the /arcade/tar directory once they are installed??

My server back up is getting killed by the size of this????

--------------- Added 1267291974 at 1267291974 ---------------

OK...I woo hoo'd too fast.

Now I cannot upload new games. I put them in the tar folder go to the Add Games, click install and I get a blank screen... :(

[Mahoni999]

Yes as soon as you have installed the Games, then you can delete the TAR-FIles as you don`t need them anymore.

[Digital Jedi]

I've changed every instance and my layout isn't changing.
http://devilsdisciples.net/forum/arcade.php

I've noticed that you have a custom skin. <fieldset class="fieldset"> isn't used but in a few places in the new vBulletin. It's possible your skin designer didn't include any CSS information for it.

[BrOkEn.HaLo]

Is there anyway around this?

[Digital Jedi]

Well, yes. You need to add the CSS for the fieldset class. Either you can contact the skin designer or you can try designing your own.

[fly]

None of this fixes it for me either

You've disabled guests from viewing the arcade.

Works on firefox but not in IE :(

I just verified that they were changed...on instances of <fieldset> in the file...

this definitely works and makes the arcade look great on a 4.0.2 forum with a modified template!

any chance a future release will support CSS being stored as files? or possibly a fix exists now to allow?

I'd hate to lose the speed gain of CSS as files but our forum wants the arcade.

[Rckcrwlr]

try the css setting fix i just posted above it worked for me

Nope..still not working...

[Digital Jedi]

I'm starting to think that reason some of you don't see changes when fixing fieldset, is because your skin didn't include styling for fieldset.

[Rckcrwlr]

I am only using the vB Styles...

[Digital Jedi]

You've made no changes whatsoever to your styling, because the link you posted above shows a red colored forum?

[Rckcrwlr]

No...

I am only using vB Stylings...not other developers.

Basically it is a color change from what I understand.

[Digital Jedi]

No...

Basically it is a color change from what I understand.
A custom style means you've made changes to your style in the Admin CP. It doesn't necessarily mean you've used one from another developer. Changing it from the default means you have a custom style. That's how you got your own banner in there. I haven't gotten a chance to see where fieldset is controlled, but it could be you don't have style info for that aspect.

:eek::confused:

Confused...

Are you saying that some of my Addons could have caused it???

[Digital Jedi]

No, I didn't say anything about Add-Ons. I'm talking about your style. vB default comes white and blue. You've edited, or had someone edit the style so your forum would now be red with a custom banner. All of that is controlled in the Admin CP in the style manager.

OK...

Please don't mind my stupidity...I am new to the styles. In the past I just found one I liked and uploaded it. I will reinstall the OEM style and see if that fixes it.

Wish me luck...

I haven't been able to use my arcade for a while but it seems like it will not save scores and comes up with a Security Token Error.

Any thoughts?

Just create a new style with no parent in the Admin CP, then take a look at the arcade in that style to see if you still have the same problem.

Check the article that talks about CSRF Protecton for the Security Token Error.

Did that and have the same issue.

Forgot about that...it's fixed.

At least one of these fixes should have corrected your problem. Have you tried save your CSS as files fix?

applied the fixes and still looks exactly the same (no changes before or after the updates)

[RedTrinity]

Have tried all the solutions suggested in the 3rd post, but the arcade style is still broken. I already have my CSS saved as files.

At a bit of a loss at the moment with how to fix this problem.

[doraj]

Hello,

I tried your fix but I haven't again the problem with layout, have you other suggestion please?

Thank you

[syrus.xl]

The arcade.css template is where you would normally add that fieldset css. Another place would be to add it to the last stylesheet that vBulletin 4 calls, which is the additional.css. This would override any other definitions that maybe knocking out the css styling.

Just an idea..

additional.css template
.fieldset {
padding: 5px;
font-size: {vb:stylevar font-size};
border: 1px solid #c4c4c4;
margin: 0 10px;
}

Negative, unfortunately :( Added the code to additional.css and then cleared my browser cache. Reloaded the arcade page, its still the same :(

[goxy63]

Everything is almost great, thank you guys

Only one thing, how to center titles above champion avatars, as they are going to the left?
"Highscore-Champions"
"Leader of Leaderboard"
"King of the Arcade"

[lubbie]

Hi. Im not that good in php. Where in skin_Arcade.php do i have to add this

<fieldset class="fieldset">
<legend><b>{$ibforums->lang['gamebox_rating']}</b></legend>
<center><span class="smallfont">
{$rating}
</span></center></fieldset>
?

[Hippy]

search for <fieldset> and just change them to <fieldset class="fieldset">
