Hi,

Recently (few days ago perhaps) I noticed all kitmaker forums stopped displaying the user info bar above peoples' messages like they should. On Firefox 3.6.16 I'm currently running, it looks like this:


Same on IE:


At first I thought it might have something to do with Firefox addons and settings, so I tried disabling Adblock and resetting the general.useragent.extra.firefox setting (I have it set on "Mozilla/2.0 " to revert to Google's good old image search), but no luck.

Anyone else seeing the same phenomenon?

Eetu, Saw it the other day on FF, somehow the +More info / - Less info button got pushed.

See the line just above the yellow bar with the user name.

It will also display like that if you are not signed in to the site.

Thanks! Now how come I missed that... Thinking about it, that had happened to me before and could figure it out all by myself. Funny, I don't have any clear memory of pushing that button. I must be getting old or something.

Funny, that doesn't seem to work for me (not that it matters really).
Logged out, the forums display the regular full user info, but the "less/more info" button doesn't work. Clicking it takes you to the usual "change made" page, then reloads the thread where you were, but without changes.

No problems anymore with this, but I noticed an interesting thing regarding this. I might have not pressed the button accidentally after all.

I'm logged in. When coming to the forums from a google search result, the forums' user info gets set to 'less info'.
Anyone else experience the same?
