New Template for Mises.org/com

I, too, experience this problem. I am using the latest version of Firefox, if that will help any. I will provide a screen capture for reference. This seems to happen once when you enter the ‘Community’ section of the site. The homepage on mises.org is aligned correctly. I haven’t checked to see if it happens on any of part of the website.

Also, the navigation bar for the forum seems to be misaligned. The ‘»’ character pushes down each respective subsection after ‘Forum’. I will also provide a screen capture for this issue.

Yeah, the image needs to be repositioned 6 pixles down

I have a fix (requires stylish), but it replaces the whole image with a ghost like sillouette of Mises.

If you want to simply fix it, go to “write a style → for mises.org…” on the stylish options and type

#CommonHeader img[src*="headerSlice"] {

    position:absolute;

    top:-6px!important;

}

Here’s the Replacement image (since I dont have a before/after pic up)

I guess we should just take the digg button off. Digg has become ridiculous in the last several months, ever more mainstream and uninteresting. It take like 1000 diggs to get near the front because of the system change etc.

It would be great if someone provided me with the CSS change needed to fix this.

in Common.css

change

#CommonHeader

{

    background-image: url(/Community/themes/mises2008/images/bg_header.gif);

    background-color: #000000;

}

to

#CommonHeader

{

    background-image: url(/Community/themes/mises2008/images/bg_header.gif);

    background-color: #000000;

    position: absolute;

    top: -6px;

}

The top banner issue has been fixed, but it would be nice if the navigation would get fixed too. In my opinion, that is the most annoying of all issues. Perhaps removing the ‘»’ character from whatever script you have going could fix it.

I have posted more than a hundred blogs to my blog at mises.org. Recently when I copy from my website the content, all formatting is lost. It is troublesome enough to paste which I am willing to do. I am not willing to reformat, however. Unless this problem can be fixed, I will no longer contribute.
