Sorry, the image didn’t upload correctly on my original post (it was a .JPG file, not .jpg, I guess?) Here it is:

Now that ‘mouse’ icon should display as your image does above – in other words just inside of the top right hand corner.

This probably mean there is some CSS leakage from your Wp theme effecting it and we will need to diagnose what we need to do to counter that.

Is there any chance you could quickly look at your topic using the Wp default theme to see if that places the icon correctly? And also places the popup image in the centre as it should?

And – no gallery type s planned yet – not so easy – but with the new attachments list it might be possible to introduce this at some stage.

I activated the twenty eleven theme and it went worse, actually. Uploading a picture. (I have not touched this theme, it’s up to date and straight out of the box). I can give you the dev site link if you want to see it in person and look at the code. It’s on the Genesis framework.

Sorry for posting twice but it would not upload my image on my first one.

I wouldn’t mind a look,. at least I can see then what Firebug has to say about the CSS being applied.
If you want to keep the dev link provate then you can PM me the url
Thanks

I don’t see anything obvious or anything external to SP effecting the positioning. Which is curious.

The only thing I can think of is that it an accumulation of the three images being side by side like that. Would you be willing to try a post with a single image and perhaps one with the images stacked on top of each other…?

I did a post with just one image, and also edited the OP to break the images into three separate <p></p>:

1. The lightbox overlay works properly (centered in the screen).
2. The mouse icon thingy is still over in the box with my gravatar, and on the post with the three now separated images, there are three of the mouse icons.

If it is a function of the images being side by side, that just happened when I uploaded all three at once–so maybe the uploader plugin needs to be tweaked to separate them automatically, if that’s what’s necessary? I prefer for them to be lined up, and love the lightbox overlay ($.02).

I’m still on build 7077; new build hasn’t hit the WP updater yet (if you want to know).

Most puzzling. I could see no reason whatever for the mouse icon to be positioned where it was.
Can I assume that you have not changed any of the forum theme CSS?

You can assume that–per instructions, I copied the iForum theme to a new folder so that I could start making some tweaks without them being overwritten, but I haven’t hit the CSS yet. I have removed some lines from the spFoot.php file (like the timezone, and administrators), and started working with the breadcrumbs at the top a bit (I don’t want the breadcrumbs to include the home page of the entire site), but that is all. Nothing else.

OK – the iForum theme is still really work in progress although if you change it then that should be fine. I will load it up here later and look to see if the icon problem is ours.

I switched to the default forum theme and the problem is not changed. Left it up if you will want to look at it.

Also, in another thread on here a day or so ago, you’d said you updated the SVN because the debug code was still in the version I had running (build 7077)… the update hasn’t hit the WP updater yet, at least not for me. Doesn’t seem to affect anything except for the extra lines and a scary “Destroyed” message when I log out of the site, but if I should have an upgrade yet, I don’t. fyi

They don’t come through the WP Update option. It’s SVN or nightly builds at https://simple-press.com/5-0-nightly-builds/

Been thinking about the image question…. You have other anomalies in that site – the popup post list for example is all shunted to the right.

Have you changed any of the column widths in the theme?

No, right now I’m using the default SP theme, no changes made at all. I was making a few changes to a copy of the iForum theme but I switched to default to check the message thing and it’s the same.

I also tried switching to the WP twenty eleven theme (unedited) and the layout is really out of whack, including the icons. The popups do come up centered though, not pushed right. (screen shot attached)
