Well it took me a while but the install for 7.6 was missing some items as well as sort order header..
Specifically last online.
Till I edited the showembers.tpl
And found in the span class invis.
Once deleted it two places last online works again.

It would have been nice that we were told about it beforehand.
Since the language file changed from last online to last on.
Since you can't search the language files in 7.6 in the cp it would have saved some time for me using something like grep

Sort header? I can sort headings in a forum and on the member list, which is *missing*?

Did the Who's Online ever have sortable headers?

Why cant you search languages? I can search languages on all of my installs, please advise what steps you do so we can attempt to recreate. If you have languages other than the STOCK English language, it may be one of your language strings that need re-translated, as the language strings from prior to 760 are vastly different than 75x.

searching the language files in the cp has been reported by myself and one other user at this site already . For the stock English file.
when you enter the cp language search editor tab.
and you enter a search string and leave the search file to search all files.
You get a blank page.

when you view the user list
https://www.ubbcentral.com/forums/ubbthreads.php/ubb/showmembers
You used to have other options to look at and sort by like last online.

Well in the stock download. showmembers.tpl.
Had INVIS in the class tag for them. so they don't show .
I had to delete the invis tag so they would show again.
as well as the language string and actual text changed.
So it was a little extra work to find them since the cp language editor is kinda hosed..

Since all member numbers are provided in ascending order, just as new user registrations are also in ascending order, clicking the "Joined" date column header duplicates the same function as the Member Number column.

Member Numbers progressively ascend, just as Joined Dates. In the previous list display, they would provide the exact same SQL command.

Yes I agree that join date has a very close approximation to member number.
I was just informing him that he enabled the member number display without a way to sort by it.

But anyway thanks for not deleting the last online filter.
Just wish we knew about it.

I believe that removing invis from those lines may affect mobile capability on that page.

If you are going to customize it, copy over the same code from the "Joined" column in to your new column. The output is the same.

But be aware, adding more columns means that you could also end up making your screen too wide for viewing on mobile devices, such as iPhones.

Okay the what does invis exactly do?

My research says it turns the display off completely like hidden or invisible to all devises.

the rest of the tags are still in place for each span class for smaller device screens..

This link has been posted on the portal since July 2016, with items in that list from January 2015.
https://www.ubbcentral.com/forums/ubbthreads.php/topics/258608/version-7-6-0-changelog

The changes for UBB.threads 7.6.0 have been documented more than any other dev before myself.

I just tested it on the iPhone and the last on column does not appear. It does appear on the iPad.

Understood
that is a somewhat concern but the last online feature won the battle with the client.
I already advised them that it may cause a concern with to much data to display on small screens.
At least for the one page.

Thanks but who knew what a abbreviated tag invis meant till we got it.
But anyway it still is a great job on the bug fix/clean up hurdle you overcame.
The language editor is another issue not sure on that one.

PS,
just read Gizmo's post never thought to check common.css for a declaration for invis.
DUH cry
I would have found it a lot faster.

Some further documentation to what your question is related to:
https://www.ubbcentral.com/forums/u...t-installed-7-6-couple-issues#Post259637

UBB.threads 7.6.0 follows along the directed lines of using the reset.css principals for its common.css


Quote
The goal of a reset stylesheet is to reduce browser inconsistencies in things like default line heights, margins and font sizes of headings, and so on. The general reasoning behind this was discussed in a May 2007 post, if you're interested. Reset styles quite often appear in CSS frameworks, and the original "meyerweb reset" found its way into Blueprint, among others.

The reset styles given here are intentionally very generic. There isn't any default color or background set for the body element, for example. I don't particularly recommend that you just use this in its unaltered state in your own projects. It should be tweaked, edited, extended, and otherwise tuned to match your specific reset baseline. Fill in your preferred colors for the page, links, and so on.

In other words, this is a starting point, not a self-contained black box of no-touchiness.

Well, it's a class, so it'll be in a stylesheet, and if it's an item that doesn't need customization it'll be in the common.css file. The common.css file has minimal comments as it'll bulk up the file that everyone has to download to display your forums.
