Default paragraph formatting of Event text is screwy

Ning To Jamroom

http://www.thechocolatelife.info/thechocolatelife/chocliferoot/event/472/fcia-2015-winter-meeting

Looking at the source in the editor it looks like there is nothing added. Looking at it Chrome developer tools seems to indicate extra line break [br] statements are added. Seems to indicate.

To check that it's not a Chrome rendering thing I opened in Safari and see the same spacing.

There is no events.css, so I went looking for the CSS for this using developer tools. There's so much inheritance going on that it's difficult for me to figure out what the controlling style is.

Nonetheless, the default settings for the spacing between paragraphs is all wrong here and should probably be fixed in the next skin update.

After deleting a discussion, getting returned to the wrong page

@Paul -

I think it's important to consider the context.

Members (other than admins) can only delete discussions they created, but they can be deleted in at least the following contexts:

1) The member's profile
2) From within a Group's discussions (which are always displayed within the context of a profile)
3) From within a Forum

To generalize, I suppose the answer is to display the parent context:

1) If I delete an entry from a Forum category discussion I would go to the listing of the Forum category:
e.g., http://...path.../forum/forum_name

2) If I delete an entry from a Group's discussion I go to the listing of that Group's discussions:
e.g., http://...path.../profile_name/group/#/group_name

As for the ordering, I don't have that particular sort of spam issue so I am not worried about people needlessly updating a discussion just to make sure it stays at the top of the list. But that's my community and I review every single request for membership.

@Brian

visit http://www.thechocolatelife.info/thechocolatelife/

The behavior is in the About ... entry at the top of the page.

Changed a left padding value in header.css and now can't see ACP tabs.

Another case to test for. After re-setting

#header_content
.spacer

I decided to Save Changes just for fun.

On the page refresh, the tab state was lost. Going back to the untagged tab the system thinks that

#header_content
.spacer

have been changed, even though they were not. Just for fun I reset everything, made no changes, and clicked Save Changes. Three of the four elements now have reset buttons! Ironically, the one that does not is margin-left for #main_logo.

As the tab state is lost you might also want to check if somehow these two things are related.

I changed the image so you can see that something is going on.

The top image shows the default state of header.css in the untagged tab.

I make ONE change - changing margin-left on #main_logo and after saving changes, you can see RESET buttons next to every attribute even though all of the values are the same.

So, there's something going on and it's in #header_content. If I reset just that element everything shifts right. Resetting .spacer padding-top fixes the vertical movement.

One other thing that doesn't make sense is that the location of the nav menu shifts left. I would have assumed that it was right-aligned and not dependent on the location of the logo.

UPDATE - Yep. CPanel editor is not saving the files on the host. I edited the files locally and FTPd them up and it all worked. I think I have to file a ticket with Arvixe on that one.

Did you try it as an admin in category About? This is a special case.

@Brian -

I am directly editing header.css from the CPanel File Manager Code Editor:

thechocolatelife/skins/jrNingja-release-1.0.11/css/header.css

and changes are not reflected when doing a hard reload of the page.

jrNingja-release-1.0.11 is symlinked to jrNingja
