I continue the very laborious work of cleaning up the site code.

Over the last few days, I've been focusing on phone display, with the goal that every page looks good (without menus that run over multiple lines) on phones up to 3.5 inches (320 pixels wide, like the iPhone 4 and 5).

Several notable changes :
  • multiple corrections to fight against the presence of horizontal scrolling on some pages;
  • rewriting of the drop-down menus in the address book and the hourglasses;
  • work on page margins to better adapt to different screen sizes (including popups);
  • disabling the phone zoom to prevent iOS from zooming in forms;
  • removal of tabs on pages where they were left, to use a drop-down menu as elsewhere on the site.
Let me elaborate on this last point: I spent days and days trying to modify the current tabs. They had several flaws: they took up a lot of space (and prevented buttons from being displayed nicely above them), were painful to use on the phone (especially since the code that "folded" them tended to cause a small graphic artifact that was painful when moving from one page to another), and quite disgracious.

These drop-down menus are more homogeneous with the rest of the site (they have already been used on quite a few other pages), I don't find them perfect but that's what I liked the most in the end! I hope you'll like all this.

Here are today's changes:
  • simplification of the navigation in the trunk, with a drop-down menu that allows you to go directly from one category to another, without going through a black screen;
  • harmonization of the dropdown menus in the address book and the aviary with those of the rest of the site;
  • repaired a strange spacing when selecting names in the address book;
  • fixed a bug that caused the drop-down menus at the top of the page to open when touching "empty" areas on some phones;
  • the number of topics and messages per page has been reduced, allowing (I find) to navigate faster, but also to significantly speed up the generation and display of pages;
  • no graphical calculation of the dropdown menus before they are loaded (lightens the display of pages);
  • removal of scripts from the forum engine (lightens the loading of pages).

A few modifications of the last two days (nothing very visible normally, but I keep you informed!) :
  • removal of a lot of lines of code that became useless with age (almost 1000) : don't hesitate to report any graphic problem you may encounter if I had gone a bit too far;
  • complete rewriting of the scripts of the stores and the trunk;
  • removal of the possibility of using the OpenDyslexia font, which was in fact hardly used, and because I could see that extensions worked very well for people who might be interested (on Firefox or Chrome);
  • fixed an inaccurate error message when running out of money in shops ;
  • repair of the color of forbidden places;
  • fixed the fact that the editor make the textarea jump to the end of the text on Chrome;
  • fixed a scroll problem in the menus on old versions of Chrome or Internet Explorer ;

Alas, my free time will be much more reduced in the next few weeks, and the frequency of updates will decrease. But I will continue to improve things as soon as I have a minute!

These last days have been exclusively dedicated to bug fixes :
  • bbcode and color of some buttons in the homework correction;
  • corrected the moving and deletion of owls, and an incorrect icon in the aviary options;
  • access to Hogsmeade for those who buy a certificate;
  • correction of the erroneous display of galleons on some pages;
  • better alignment of the avatars next to the messages;
  • better alignment of buttons when writing a new topic;
  • color of the names of characters with no more readable function;
  • bbcodes tooltips;
  • start cutting styles and scripts to load only what is really useful on each page.

It's not going to sound like much, but it kept me busy all weekend (with a lot of trying):
  • you can now filter your messages as in the unread messages, and thus not only see your RP but also floods, duels, adventures... ;
  • you can do the same for all players from the identity cards ; you can now see the RP but also the duels, adventures... of each one ; links back to the profile have been added ;
  • the "My RP" page uses the same system: it should normally be much faster.
In addition, the contrast of different elements (buttons, dates and times) has been enhanced to be more readable.

The forum engine has been updated tonight. As usual, don't hesitate to tell me if there is any problem !

Unfortunately, my professional life is very busy, and I will be away for several months. :sad:
Nevertheless, I have the impression that the site is working without me, and I promise to come back soon to break everything for some new stuff ! :love:

Hello to all,

After long efforts of rewritings launched since last January and finally finished, I was able to remove from all pages an important javascript library (Jquery) used until now.

This results in a global lightening, probably not very perceptible to the naked eye but real, of the speed of opening and computing pages.

Only the marauder's map remains to be rewritten, which will be the subject of a future update.

A few small changes elsewhere:
  • in the aviary, the custom folders are moved to the bottom of the list, allowing those who have a lot of them to more easily access the owls in flight, sent, and drafts;
  • custom folders are now sorted alphabetically;
  • faster display of new frogs;
  • fixed a small bug that could prevent dropdown menus from displaying properly on error pages;
  • fixed the absence of numbers in the numbered lists;
  • fixed the rendering of some buttons on parchment in courses for teachers;
  • rewrote many scripts (registration, magic wand, sorting ceremony, member administration);
  • rewrite of the course option selection page.
