Username hover card under topic link is extremely annoying

[Ingenious]

I agree with the OP. It's really irritating and having such as easy pop up there defeats the object of having a clickable topic preview. I'm forever having member cards pop up as I scroll down the topic list.

I give up on this one for now, it works but now the "Hover Preview" that Matt made does not work anymore and you can't get to the topic because when you click on the topic it brings up the preview box and won't go to the topic :rofl:

The problem with this pop-up is that it is too close to the actual topic itself so using the mouse going down the list you invariably run into the user and get that pop-up also. If the "Started By" info was farther away (like it used to be) that would not be a problem.

Upon investigation... did you get a scroll-bar with a link?

"go to this topic" button link works.... not the cleanest resolution though.
Little birdie says Rsyvarth's back on the case to resolve the conflict.

[Genestoy]

Probably did, but because I have no content on my test board other the just one or two words it did not show, and I have now removed the changes

Conflict resolved thanks to Rsyvarth.. topic hover still triggers hover(with topic link functional), member pop-up triggers on-click.

I did another change and left the hover alone (for now) and also filled up the "whitespace" some. Of course my board is at 99% width also so that left a LOT of whitespace.

And yes, the "No Hover" mod over the username works just fine too

Now on to changing the "Tags" back to "Descriptions"

Love that!!
Can you show a screenshot of how it looks when you're hovering the topic-row(so that the topic-preview arrow is shown), wanna see how that fits with that design :)

What arrow? Maybe I don't have it enabled? Where is it?

[Genestoy]

OK, forgot about that little thing

Here you go

And one with the tag

If you want to try it yourself (you can always use the "Revert" button in the template if you don't like it)

Find

  <span class='desc lighter blend_links'>

   {parse expression="sprintf( $this->lang->words['topic_started_by'], $data['starter'] )"} {parse date="$data['start_date']" format="DATE"}

   <if test="hasTags:|:isset($data['tags']) AND $data['tags']">

	  <img src='{$this->settings['img_url']}/icon_tag.png' /> {$data['tags']['formatted']['truncatedWithLinks']}

   </if>

  </span>

  <if test="multipages:|:isset( $data['pages'] ) AND is_array( $data['pages'] ) AND count( $data['pages'] )">

   <ul class='mini_pagination'>

   <foreach loop="pages:$data['pages'] as $page">

 	<if test="haslastpage:|:$page['last']">

  	<li><a href="{parse url="showtopic={$data['tid']}&amp;st={$page['st']}" seotitle="{$data['title_seo']}" template="showtopic" base="public"}" title='{$this->lang->words['topic_goto_page']} {$page['page']}'>{$page['page']} {$this->lang->words['_rarr']}</a></li>

 	</if>

   </foreach>

   </ul>

</td>

Replace all of that with

  <span class='desc lighter blend_links'>

  <if test="hasTags:|:isset($data['tags']) AND $data['tags']">

	  <img src='{$this->settings['img_url']}/icon_tag.png' /> {$data['tags']['formatted']['truncatedWithLinks']}

   </if>

         	</span>

<if test="multipages:|:isset( $data['pages'] ) AND is_array( $data['pages'] ) AND count( $data['pages'] )">

   <ul class='mini_pagination'>

   <foreach loop="pages:$data['pages'] as $page">

 	<if test="haslastpage:|:$page['last']">

  	<li><a href="{parse url="showtopic={$data['tid']}&amp;st={$page['st']}" seotitle="{$data['title_seo']}" template="showtopic" base="public"}" title='{$this->lang->words['topic_goto_page']} {$page['page']}'>{$page['page']} {$this->lang->words['_rarr']}</a></li>

 	<else />

  	<li><a href="{parse url="showtopic={$data['tid']}&amp;st={$page['st']}" seotitle="{$data['title_seo']}" template="showtopic" base="public"}" title='{$this->lang->words['topic_goto_page']} {$page['page']}'>{$page['page']}</a></li>

 	</if>

   </foreach>

   </ul>

  </if>

</td>



<td class='col_f_content'>

  <span class='desc lighter blend_links'>

   {parse expression="sprintf( $this->lang->words['topic_started_by'], $data['starter'] )"} {parse date="$data['start_date']" format="DATE"}

          	</span>

            	</td>

Do a Ctrl+F5 in your browser when done

That's awesome! Looks much better than the current design tbh. And it should solve the "problem" that the others are having with accidently triggering the username hover popup ^_^

That was the main reason I moved it
