Embeding issue

fonchi

Hi,

I had a local setup working fine. Forum embedded in a Wordpress site.

Now I checked and when I enter a discussion, the windows goes straight to the bottom of the page to the Text Editor and showing the Forum footer (which was never seen in the embedding before). If I scroll up, the header is not showing/cropped off (Menu, notifications, etc...)

I haven't made any mayor changes to forum. Maybe just Wordpress and the Wordpress plugin.

What could it be?
Thanks for your time and support.

I tried the forum without the embedding and it scrolls down automatically once I enter a discussion. Is there a way to disable that?

Bleistivt

It should jump to the latest unread post, actually.

You can disable this behaviour by adding this to your config.php

$Configuration['Vanilla']['Comments']['AutoOffset'] = false;

Thanks for the reply @Bleistivt
I noticed that the code line was already there in the "Vanilla" Secction.. and was "=FALSE;"

I tried adding the code anyways and/or changing the one already with "=TRUE;" and false again, but nothing happens. It didn't used to do this behaviour.

Bleistivt

Could you post a link to your site?

fonchi

I have it installed locally.

Bleistivt

Does it still happen when you disable all plugins and switch to the default theme?

fonchi

It still happens... I'm going to try a new install.

Bleistivt

A new install isn't going to magically fix this, unless you have changed core files.

There is a bug in master that breaks the AutoOffset, but it doesn't apply to you, since you are most likely using Vanilla 2.1

Ouch!
But how come it wasn't troubling me before?

That's weird.

Bleistivt

I don't know. Are you running 2.2? This is not the stable version. If you are on the stable version you should not be experiencing this bug.

fonchi

Nop. 2.1.6... Updated to 2.1.8p2 to the same behavior.

fonchi

Hi, @Bleistivt . The non stable version (2.2) is the vanilla-master.zip in github?
I'm stuck with this bug even on 2.1.9 and it seems nobody is having the same bug.

Thanks for your help.

Hey, @Bleistivt. I uploaded a sample forum with the same behavior.
AutoOffset doesn't work (v2.1.9)

I just tried to register on your site, but you need to get a ReCaptcha API key and/or configure your registration properly.

Hi, @hgtonight. I configured it, it must be working now.
