Welcome to tempStyle 3.3 on XenForo 2.3!
This long-awaited update introduces a number of new features and important security enhancements.
We’ll be gradually rolling out some of these new features over time, but for now, our main focus is ensuring full theme compatibility.
Since this update rendered our old themes incompatible, we're currently working hard to update and adjust all visual elements accordingly. We appreciate your patience while we finalize the remaining details.

As we continue fine-tuning the theme to fully support the latest version of XenForo, you may encounter temporary issues with certain features, visual elements, colors, typography, or layouts.
If you spot anything that looks broken, incorrect, or missing, please let us know by posting below. The more details you can provide, the better — and screenshots are always helpful!

Thank you for your understanding and support.

@shaunj66 Are we ever going to see a return of the Rosey Blossom theme as it was a godsend for people like myself who are dyslexic. I get there are some other tools the site provides but numerous studies have shown pastle colours massively helps dyslexic people to better read text ect

Merged posts still send multiple notifications, which kind of defeats half their point, IMO.

I have the opposite problem: sometimes there is a race condition, where I *want* the 2nd post to send a notification again, but it gets lost in the merge.

I personally want the notification from the merged posts too.
That would be lost in the merging the same way a later edit would be made to it, and technically it is still a new post so it probably is intended to send notifications in the first place.

I can't submit a new Group I'm trying to make, I keep getting this error:

Found another bug related to status updates/profile posts.

Posting a new status update from the front page will display additional profile posts between users underneath once it is processed until the page is refreshed.
Very similar to the duplicated visual post glitch in a way, which is still happening as far as I am aware, so maybe this is related?

Also while I'm here, I noticed that signatures don't always auto collapse to the maximal height allowed, sometime the full size is being displayed without the toggle option, which would affect every posts on the same page.
It seems random too, sometime it would be fine and some other time it would just do that, then it would be fine once the page is refreshed, and vice versa.

It does work despite the error. Don't submit any more times, they will all go through and there's no way to delete groups right now. See the thread below:

I've noticed that directly uploaded videos never show thumbnails which makes me less likely to play them. While fiddling with the HTML code of a page, I found out why:

It seems that the preload tag is set to none, which prevents any data to load from the video. While I can understand this may have been done to save on bandwidth, I feel like it would be better if the thumbnail was shown regardless.

The preload tag has three possible values: none, metadata, and auto. Picking either of the other two will load no more than approx. the first two seconds of the video (based on the buffer line) in this example post, rendering the thumbnail and also the full length of the video viewable:

…it would also allow the nicety of being able to mute the video before playing, which is greyed out in the initial state for whatever reason, at least in Chrome.

Nice catch!

Is there also some way to have control over seek point too?
I sometime wish I could seek at specific points and just can't, I could only watch the video in full in a single sitting.

I'm aware GBAtemp isn't really meant to be used for sharing videos but just a moment ago on my profile page we were discussing about browser codec supports since a video I shared didn't have sound for some people.
This is unrelated but somewhat relevant to mention while I'm here.

This might be a server-side issue, assuming this is the same problem this person on StackOverflow is providing an answer to:

afri said:
Ah, I just stumbled into this exact problem.

As it turns out, looping (or any sort of seeking, for that matter) in <video> elements on Chrome only works if the video file was served up by a server that understands partial content requests. i.e. the server needs to honor requests that contain a "Range" header with a 206 "Partial Content" response. This is even the case if the video is small enough to be fully buffered by chrome, and no more server-round trips are made: if your server didn't honor chrome's Range request the first time, the video will not be loopable or seekable.
