Bad: Again Strange Profile Page

edited June 2012 in Vanilla 2.0 - 2.8

The issue was resolved. But not for all profiles. See this image

Elements are being showed multiple times. The issue is not theme specific. It is with all the themes & for limited profiles. All plugins are deactivated except vanilla embed.

Embeded URL: http://edgeineersclub.com/
Actual URL: http://edgeineersclub.com/developers

Please help me out :-(

    ultimateki's profile is fine, can you show an example? From you description, it sounds more like a caching issue.

    I would rule out first javascript insertion issues, as assets are often fetched and rendered in place, if there is two element with the same class jquery will gladly do what it is told.

    yes it is a javascipt related as suspected.

    it is to do with the counts, note how the count of discussion that is where the content is inserting splitting the button up.

    I note it is fetching
    http://edgeineersclub.com/developers/profile/17/Sample-User?DeliveryType=VIEW

    It shouldn't be doing anything with these, note there is no reference to delivery method, i.e. JSON, BOOL, it just the in place view.

    So putting my investigative hat on, the problem lies in the fact that the span where the counts are places in have the class Popin, which is reserved in use on global.js, Shown here

       $.fn.popin = function(options) {
          var settings = $.extend({}, options);
          
          this.each(function(i, elem) {
             var url = $(elem).attr('rel');
             var $elem = $(elem);
             $.ajax({
                url: gdn.url(url),
                data: {DeliveryType: 'VIEW'},
                success: function(data) {
                   $elem.html(data);
                },
                complete: function() {
                   $elem.removeClass('Progress TinyProgress');
                   if (settings.complete != undefined) {
                      settings.complete($elem);
                   }
                }
             });
         });
       };
       $('.Popin').popin();
    

    in the other users' profiles these span does not have this class or the rel attribute

    yes it is told to do that the function CountString in functions.render.php inserts Popin TinyProgress in the class.

    inside

          if ($Number === NULL && $Url) {
             $CssClass = ConcatSep(' ', $CssClass, 'Popin TinyProgress');
    

    note the count must be NULL for this to be inserted.

    see in applications/vanilla/settings/class.hooks.php

    ...CountString(GetValueR('User.CountDiscussions', $Sender, NULL...

    and

    ...CountString(GetValueR('User.CountComments', $Sender, NULL)...

    I suspect in the database. the default value for CountComments, and CountDiscussions in the Gdn_User is set to NULL rather than 0, it is int(11) type, should have a default of 0. This would be a quick way to fix, to change the column default for that, and not null.

    If that doesn't work you can change the default of GetValueR like so CountString(GetValueR('User.CountComments', $Sender, '0') and also for CountDiscussions, but given that is is largely working for most, it is preferable to change the data at source as well.

    did you load you data from a dump? It can sometimes happen that the table spec is not 100% perfect.

    Why are you posting multiple threads.

    No one can assist unless you post test user details.

    Get firebug.

    There was an error rendering this rich post.

  • That thread was displaying "Answered". That is why I posted this one.

    I have firebug.

    First of all, in that thread you mentioned that your problem was solved. Second. When someone 'answers' you in a thread, then it automatically gets displayed as answered. I also marked that thread as 'Solved'.
    So now you have a new, thesame, problem right?

    See screenshot. Looks ok, unembedded.

    Tried, gave up, kept getting bonk. I suspect you have cocked something up. Disable ALL plugins, turn error reporting on.

    There was an error rendering this rich post.

  • I think we were logged in at the same time. I cannot even reproduce the page from the screenshot. Profiles with spaces in them don't work nicely in embedded mode.
    Seems purely a CSS issue. Suggest you look at the HTML source with firebug and figure out how you can solve it.
    Unembedded looks fine in FireFox.

  • @UnderDog.... The error appears randomly in profiles. Check the profile of "testing".
    @422.... I have never seen bonk error. How is it coming there?

  • I have observed that latest profiles are showing this error. After a certain period of time, the error is itself fixed.

    This is not a CSS issue. When I make a profile, it is loading strange. To fix it, I have to activate another theme, reload profile and then change back the theme to its default. After doing this, the issue is resolved for the profile. CSS is still the same. It should be a configuration error. If you don't believe, make an account on my website and I'll fix it using this procedure.
