@HeatherBrown I'm going to upload the new site with the JS popup. Would you be able to look at it and see if you can figure out why the navbar shifts slightly when the popup is opened?

Normal

Something seems odd in the user profile / activity, is this a recent change? Screenshot:

Zacharee1

what about it? @Normal

Nathan Osman

I've reached out to the pkg-go Debian group in hopes of getting a sponsor.

12:16 AM

On hover, the tab names like "questions" get underlined. This is in addition to horizontal line under it.

Zacharee1

idk

Seth

@Normal hmm, now that you mention it..

I think it has been happening since the new CSS rollout.

But I don't pay enough attention to know for sure.

Nathan Osman

If I ever get good at this "get a package into Debian" process, I may write an article about it.

It's complicated.

Normal

Maybe it's by design, but I was somehow surprised by double-line under the word. Looks like too many effects at once: color change, highlight on horizontal line, and additional underline. I'll post on Meta in case it's a CSS bug.

kos

@Normal Yeah it started happening when they switched to che new CSS. They're supposed to know that already: meta.askubuntu.com/a/13850/380067

Normal

12:28 AM

@kos Thanks. Well, there was no response from the team there, and I already typed up the questions, so might as well post it.

Experience shows that design bugs get overlooked easily.

Zacharee1

@HeatherBrown fixed it

kos

@Normal Yeah I guess it can't hurt. My point is probably it's a WORKSFORME. Hopefully they'll fix it, it doesn't look too good.

Q: User profile tabs are double-underlined on hover

When one hovers over a tab name on user profile / activity page, the name gets underlined twice, in addition to changing color to red. I suspect this may be a CSS bug, because having three effects on hover (color change, highlight on the line below, and underline directly under the word) seems to...

Zacharee1

@HeatherBrown I can even use the popup in landscape on mobile now! :DD

Sorry @Fabby, but I'm not moving away from Bootstrap and JS

@NathanOsman Thanks! @Seth ^^

user139252

@Zacharee1 When you get your site setup, log in to my domain with the username and password you made before

user139252

Through FTP, that is

Zacharee1

oh, OK

user139252

or SFTP (I prefer SFTP)

Zacharee1

1:07 AM

thanks

I do too

user139252

Upload to the website directory

user139252

Then you can go to zacharee1.tk

user139252

Already all set-up

Zacharee1

Oh, thanks.

user139252

Got bored :P

Zacharee1

1:08 AM

I kind of want my techyteen.tk domain to be put on, but I think I can do a redirect

:p

user139252

You can set-that up later

Zacharee1

yeah

hmm

this draggable header isn't working

user139252

It's actually already set-up to forward to that directory from that domain, but I don't have access to your A records to change it to my IP

Zacharee1

I can get the IP either by asking you or by running one of them fancy shmancy commands :p

user139252

dig --short www.brownvpn.tk

Zacharee1

1:10 AM

yeah

Seth

@kos done. Thanks guys!

kos

@Seth Thanks! Now the world is in order. :)

Zacharee1

@HeatherBrown won't that get the wrong IP?

user139252

No, why would it?

Zacharee1

If I point my domain to your IP, won't it direct to your website?

user139252

1:12 AM

No, I have virtual hosts

Zacharee1

ah?

So it's automatic?

user139252

Virtual hosts take the head of a request, get what domain is being redirected, and then point it toward the appropriate apache conf

user139252

The virtual hosts I made for you all point to that website folder in your home directory as the document root

Zacharee1

whoa

So you'd have to set techyteen.tk in the config?

user139252

Yeah, but that's already done

user139252

1:15 AM

All you would have to do is change the record to my IP

Zacharee1

thanks

user139252

Hold on, I'm having issues with that folder

user139252

1:32 AM

Okay, now it'll work

Seth

1:44 AM

tsk, hosting a website on only one IP :P

user139252

One IP, multiple hosts :p

Mateo

I think I have a cool scope idea

just need to get a computer working with the sdk

Zacharee1

2:00 AM

@Seth oh be quiet :p

@HeatherBrown access denied, do I need to specifically connect to my host or the IP itself?

Wow, I'm doing comma splices all over the place today

@HeatherBrown nope, the plain IP doesn't work either..

hmm

so usernames are case sensitive...

this is news to me :p

@HeatherBrown applied the DNS. Now, to wait :p

@HeatherBrown DNS updated, take a look. The only problem I'm having is the draggable window.

the JS is in main.js

Zacharee1

2:30 AM

AGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

WHY DOESNT THIS WORK

@Seth do you know anything about web development?

pls

sumwun

halp meh

kos

2:50 AM

@Zacharee1 If it's not too convoluted... And again, I can't help with CSS3

Zacharee1

@kos it's JS this time

Do you have an SSH client?

kos

@Zacharee1 Then maybe I can try giving it a shot... Yes I do.

Zacharee1

@kos thanks!

I think I see a problem, though, I just don't know how to fix it

kos

Ok what is it?

Zacharee1

It says "Missing 'use strict' statement" on $("#Modal1").draggable({

I just put the code snippet like this, so I doubt it's correct:

jQuery(function($) {

    $("#Modal1").draggable({
        handle: ".modal-header"
    });

(Obviously with a close for the jQ at the end)

there's just other stuff there

So I put a "use strict" in and it didn't help. It's something else

Developer console says this: "Uncaught TypeError: $(...).draggable is not a function" @kos

@HeatherBrown I don't know if this is my client or not, but I get permission denied when I try to replace files

kos

2:59 AM

@Zacharee1 I don't remember jQuery but is it needed for something to wrap the function call like that? What are you trying to do? Doesn't $("#Modal1").draggable({handle: ".modal-header"}); suffice?

Zacharee1

@kos I want to be able to drag the JS popups I have: techyteen.tk/#serv1

@HeatherBrown nvm, it works now

kos

@Zacharee1 Yeah I realized that but what is the wrapper for? Simply $("#Modal1").draggable({handle: ".modal-header"}); in place of the whole block should avail IIRC

Zacharee1

@kos it doesn't work for some reason. the dev console says it isn't a function

@kos where would I put it? rn I have it under main.js under the jQ section

kos

@Zacharee1 Link to the source?

Zacharee1

techyteen.tk, first popup under Services

Test Button

I could also give my login for @HeatherBrown's host she setup for me

But that could be tricky

kos

3:05 AM

@Zacharee1 I think that wrapper does nothing useful, though I'm not sure, again, I don't remember jQuery but never used a wrapper like that. Try to clear the file and put only $("#Modal1").draggable({handle: ".modal-header"}); to see if it still produces errors.

Zacharee1

ok

@kos nothing

kos

@Zacharee1 No avail or no errors?

Zacharee1

I tried putting it in its own file

Let me upload it and see

user139252

Is it all working now?

user139252

I see your files here

Zacharee1

3:09 AM

@HeatherBrown host is working great!

much better than Byethost :D

@kos still saying it isn't a function

kos

@Zacharee1 Are you using the latest jQuery?

Zacharee1

I think

I'm not sure

1.10.2

so no, but not far behind

Why are there two separate versions?

1.11.3 and 2.1.4?

user139252

Still not draggable :p

Zacharee1

gahagahagahagahg

oerihg weigbkeuiqhwgb siejkhrlg

meh

kos

@Zacharee1 That function is defined in jQuery UI: jqueryui.com/download, you need to include jQuery UI to make it work

Zacharee1

3:15 AM

ah

kos

Yup. :)

jqueryui.com/draggable

Zacharee1

OK, let's import them and see what happens

agh!

still not a function

kos

How come?

Zacharee1

IT WORKS NOW

I just had to put the scripts right below the main jquery one

@HeatherBrown only works with the first popup so far

kos

@Zacharee1 Not quite there yet then :(

Zacharee1

@kos I haven't added the rest in :p

Just a copy and paste

kos

3:24 AM

@Zacharee1 Rest?

Zacharee1

@kos I only setup the JS for the first Modal ID

kos

@Zacharee1 No idea what you're talking about :D

Zacharee1

@kos the function? How it has ("$Modal1")?

That's only one of the five popups

I need 1-5

So I just added that in and now I'm reuploading

kos

@Zacharee1 Don't use IDs unless you have a reason to differentiate, use classes

Zacharee1

@kos hmm

idk which class to use :p

should I make one?

kos

3:27 AM

Just rename #Modal1 to .Modal in the CSS and call the function on .Modal

Zacharee1

ok

kos

I mean and in the HTML as well, change whatever elements those are from <element id="#ModalX"> to <element class=".modal">

Zacharee1

yeah

I need the ID to call the modal up, but I just used the available modal class

hey hey hey: techyteen.tk/index.html

it works!

kos

\o/ \o/ \o/

Zacharee1

uh oh

the sliding animation is gone

hmm

kos

3:32 AM

Maybe the slider uses .Modal since you likely have it in the CSS for some reason. Make a class on purpose (.ModalFoo or something)

Zacharee1

ok

nope

The scrolling is part of the main.js file

kos

Make sure you're sourcing the slider after jQuery.

Zacharee1

I am

kos

What is the slider you're talking about, the thing at the top with "Welcome!" etc?

Zacharee1

The scrolling from page to page should be smooth, not instant

kos

3:37 AM

However I still see the error: Uncaught TypeError $(...).draggable(...) is not a function

Zacharee1

@kos I saw that too, but it doesn't seem to really matter

I'm going to put the function in a separate file and see what happens

fixed the scrolling

dragging also works

GOOD!

I can still tell you used bootstrap, but it's not as blatant as before. It's also easier to fix.

Zacharee1

The whole site is Bootstrap-based :p

Fix? what do you mean?

Seth

4:33 AM

make it not jump out as bootstrap.

it's not a huge deal really.
