Ongoing: Effort to completely remove all inline styles from all templates

This was/is a HUGE effort and is needed to move forward to separating out the styling (css) from the markup ( html, tpls )

Inline styling such as

Html:
<td class="alt-1" width="20%">
<form method="post" action="{ubb url=""}">
<input type="hidden" name="ubb" value="doaddevent" />
{$lang.SUBJECT}
</td>
<td class="alt-1" width="80%">
<input type="text" name = "subject" class="form-input" />
</td>


becomes
Html:
<td class="alt-1 ae-left">
	<form method="post" action="{ubb url=""}">
		<input type="hidden" name="ubb" value="doaddevent" />{$lang.SUBJECT}
</td>
<td class="alt-1 ae-right">
	<input type="text" name = "subject" class="form-input" />
</td>


Classes .ae-left and .ae-right are in reset.css for backward compatibility, but can now be changed in the current style to be any value desired without editing template files.

We also have cleaned up the actual markup to add indentation ( tabs ) to make the markup more readable.

If possibe, every .tpl file will be modified to strip out inline styling. .tmpl files are a different story and since they are admin, probably won't be cleaned up.

We might leverage the work that Rick did on the admin back end instead. ( tbd )

Feature: Allow image in a reply to a gallery forum post

Since there are new permissions ( discussed later ) that allow / disallow images on a per user group basis, there is no reason to disallow images outright in gallery replies.

It is now allowed ( permissions based )

Feature: Shoutbox smileys popup ( lightbox )



A new button for the shoutbox "Smileys" has been added and when clicked a lightbox ( prettyPhoto ) popup appears:



Clicking the smiley ( graemlin ) images automatically inserts them into the shoutbox text input.

This is a feature that has been around for quite some time and I blogged about it Here @ sirdude.com

There is a slight difference in 7.6 implementation vs the Blog post. Mainly the javascript library used, due to GPL licensing issues. Other than that, it is identical and proven to work.

Bug fix: /admin/login.php

Now display both pending display name changes and users waiting approval.

As it was before, if there were users requesting a display name change, the approval queue was ignored.

Bug fix: Showprofile

Showprofile could possibly hang for a long time ( apache / php timeout -- usually 30 seconds ) because of a glitch in the way the default blank avatar was read from disk.

This was due to the order of certain lines of code execution. This is now fixed to NOT have a long wait.

Feature - smarty library updated to latest 2.x release ( 2.6.26 )

Ideally, it would be nice to go to a non-smarty solution in the long run ( speed / efficiency ), but for now it makes sense to use the latest, hardened release of the 2.x branch.

We can't go to smart 3.x, because of the restriction that we support php v4.x for now smile

Bugfix: Edit wrappers limit

Editing wrappers had an unintentional hard limit to the number of wrappers allowed. This affected both the editing of existing wrappers as well as the creation of NEW wrappers.

Note: new wrappers never worked right at all.

This is now fixed
