tempStyle 3 Q&A

Can I continue to use the old styles?
Change can be difficult but we suggest you try using tempStyle 3 for a while to feel the benefits. Unfortunately we are retiring the old styles and starting today they will no longer be available for use.

Why is the page so narrow?
Click this icon

in the bottom left of any page.

But what about the dark and black themes?
tempStyle 3 was delayed while work on the dark and black themes was completed. You can find more information on how to select them above.

I prefer right handed navigation on mobile?
You can enable right handed navigation in your User Prefs > Mobile display settings > Right handed navigation menu.

I cleared my cache and now my custom style is gone! How do I get it back?
Unfortunately, this is not currently an option but we are looking into it.

I made a cool custom style! How can I submit it as an official preset style?

I have a suggestion to improve the new style!
Please let us know in the dedicated thread by clicking here.

I found something that doesn't look quite right!?
We are still working on the new skin and bugs and some sections of the site may have been overlooked when designing it. Especially if using a non-default style. If you find a bug or something that looks unpolished or in need of updating please let us know in the dedicated thread by clicking here.[/INFORMATION]

Some minor updates - Fixed Patreon banners not showing properly in member cards when loaded in custom styles (thanks @CeeDee )
- Fixed profile post menus appearing above the expose mask/overlay popup (thanks @AmandaRose )
- Added metadata to title bar (date, time, reply and like counts) in Blog entry pages (thanks @Extrasklep )
- Fixed '3DS - Hacks, Translations and Utilities' forum icon (thanks @Extrasklep )

As for the ongoing issues with the styler/custom styles, we're aware of all of the issues and are looking to fix them but this involves a rewrite for certain parts of the code. So this will take a little while to complete

Looking forward for the styles fixes!
Thanks for the updates!

Like buttons stay grey after having been pressed sometimes

Not exactly a Tempstyle 3 bug but ever since mobile notifications were added, Profile Post and Status Update replies are swapped.

Just remembered this when I looked at the thread.

A quick question: I've noticed that medals based on post count are gone. Is that intentional? Are medals being fully replaced by the levelling system?

The immediate answer is that the medals weren't implemented in the TS3 design as I didn't have retina/vector based replacements to hand.

However no official decision has been made and they may eventually come back. That said, it makes sense to replace them with the levelling system as that is more closely integrated into a users actions and contributions to the site whereas the medals (pips) were merely linked to post count.

I’d love to see the pips come back. Just cuz they seemed like a fun visual on profiles. The XP is a good replacement, but it doesn’t feel as rewarding as the medals did lol. Hail to the dopamine inducing profile trinkets.

More iOS bug—sometimes the buttons (like, post thread, next page, all don’t work on safari, and require me to reload the page several times until they do decide to work? This also happened on TS2 but it was much less frequent.

@shaunj66 What if we had the best of both worlds and combined them so that pips were tied to your level instead of your post count? The level bar's right side looks so empty compared to the others, anyway.

Just when I was about to reach Legend status hahaha

It would probably make more sense to have a crossed out Ad icon on the Remove Ads button.
Something like this:

Also, this is just a personal opinion, but I think all of those footer buttons should just be icons for consistency and also to reduce clutter.

Only the loading bar's glow is visible, the bar itself isn't.

Shawn, I've heard some negative feedback on this theme but you know what buddy, hey, I like it. You did an awesome job alright?
Nevertheless the Tempstyler just does not work for me, when I click on the Custom bar, nothing happens, when I click on the colors, nothing happens, but I can click it off. I'm hoping that gets fixed soon cause I can't wait to have custom colors

 

[smileyhead]

On desktop, the entire notification card is clickable, but on mobile, only a specific part of the text.

Not sure if this bug is new in TS3, but having more than three images on something in the download center causes the images to overlap with the ratings, download count, etc

Hey guys, apologies if this was posted before, but I noticed a very minor flaw.

There is a "view" button on deleted threads, but this leads to an error page.

I figured this was an option only moderators could see?

After temp 3 i have a problem where some of recent posts don't load until i reload page or i post something myself beacause of that i say'd something dump a few times

I have a problem when changing the avatar. It shows one avatar at the homepage, another when viewing my profile and other one on the upload screen, but they all disappear normally if I choose to remove.

That's your browser cache. You'll have to wait a bit for it to update everywhere on your side. Other people who don't have your avatar cached won't see your old one. Pressing Ctrl + F5 helps (it clears your cache and refreshes the page).

I noticed this on deleted posts, specifically on this thread:

 

[smileyhead]

There's no loading icon like in TempStyle 2 when I like something, which makes me think the click didn't register.

Some flags are broken?
