UBB.threads PHP Forum Software Community Forums UBB.threads 7 Bug Reports wordwrap issue with this site v7.5.9

If viewed as a guest everything looks great no scrolling left to right.

As soon as I login here the wrap is broken.
then scrolling left to right happens on the same post.

Using firefox 36.0.3

I'm not having any sort of wrapping issues; I know that here we're using post_top for guests and post_side for members though. Could you give any screen shots with observations of things that are appearing wrong?

Browser: Waterfox 36.0.1

Fine here - FF 36.0.4

Also no problems here. FF 36.0.4 @ 768x1024 and even at 400x640.
I also tried Chrome 41 and IE 11 in Windows 8.1 with those resolutions, no problems.

It could be a corrupt CSS on your side. Press CTRL-F5 to refresh your cached page contents.
It could also be a Sharaholic issue. Doing a CTRL-F5 would refresh that, too.

well I tried all that and even expired cookies.
Also I tried different resolutions.
Now I will admit that this is using a 4x3 screen.
But other posts appear normal logged in or not.
At least the ones I viewed.

How small is your resolution? What does it look like when logged in?

The attachment is what it looks like when logged in.
when I am a guest it is fine.
No matter what resolution I use.
But currently I am using 1024x768.
I even tried 1280x1024 same issue.

Also IE7 appears to be fine either way

The good news: Ruben, you are not nuts. I see what the problems is and where it is.
The bad news: You're using the older UBB Style/Theme. The "ubbcentral" theme installed here, is old and needs to be updated for this site.

What is happening is that the "code" displayed in this post
https://www.ubbcentral.com/forums/ubbthreads.php/topics/255052#Post255052
is pushing the rest of the forum content out of the way, so it can be shown.

The "ubbcode-body" CSS items needs a "overflow: auto;" placed on it. That something which UBBSystems needs to implement himself.

The work around to your issue is to just switch UBB Style to "Default Style" (blue-orange) or just acknowledge that this will happen every time you visit a post that includes a "CODE" tag with a long line.

Yep, you are correct.
That theme is missing
word-wrap: break-word;

Still don't get why it is okay when viewed as a guest.

Because in your account settings, you've chosen to view this site with the old "ubbcentral" style sheet.

Guests (visitors/not logged in) default to viewing pages with the site default "blue-orange" style sheet.


If this still doesnt make sense to you, log out to become a guest. Change your style sheet from "blue-orange" (default) to what your account has it set for, "ubbcentral." Now visit a page that uses the "code" UBBCode (ubbcode-body). The issue has been duplicated.

As mentioned above, its a lack of "overflow: auto;" property/value setting within the "ubbcentral" style.

In my case I was viewing the ubbcentral style both as guest and user..
But here is where my confusion came from.

A guest account has:
Total posts to show on one page when viewing a post in flat mode (default is 15)

when logged in:
my preferences were set at 30.

Since I have read it before my landing page was the first post(topic) as a user and guest as well.

Well the unbroken space did not happen till after the first 15 posts.
So as a guest it appeared fine.
But logged in not.

As a guest if I had selected page two the problem would have appeared.

DUH!!!!!
