Fixes for broken 2015 layouts




Changing the color of the topbar or list tables

You can change the color under TOP BAR SETTINGS and ROW COLORS and change the settings after background-color.

If the color codes are unfamiliar to you, you can easily pick new colors here:
http://www.css3maker.com/css-3-rgba.



Using the anime list style on a manga list

.status_not_selected a, .status_selected a {
background-image: url("http://i.imgur.com/4rtZb.png");
}

.header_title {
background-image: url("http://i.imgur.com/qNxEE.png");
}


You can add these codes to the bottom of your CSS to add the manga headers and bottom bar to the anime list style layout, making it manga-appropriate.


If the headers are too dark for your layout style, you can try this re-colored headers by Andun:
.status_not_selected a, .status_selected a {
background-image: url("http://i.imgur.com/4rtZb.png");
}

.header_title {
background-image: url("http://i.imgur.com/O3wuXFA.png");
}

It's really cool layout. I made manga list based on this anime list layout althought I still have to do a new image for the links since it says watching and not reading.
This is how it looks like, the background is from Itsuka Tenma no Kuro Usagi.

Nice list decided to use it for my manga list as well but ran into a few problems while editing it.
I changed the background and refitted the list to the the right side and changed the width to 550px.
The first problem i got is that the headers at the bottom need to be adjusted in width as well.
How do i change it and is it even possible?
The second problem is that when i scroll up the list goes over the menu bar at the top.
Here i image of what i mean.
I think i put the code for changing the list size at the wrong place which is at the bottom of the CCS code.

@ Aversa
The second problem can be fixed just by:
#mal\_control\_strip{z-index:100}

The first one is much worse to deal with. The problem is that my layout was designed with centered 950px width block in mind and this is specified in "math part" so you have to make a lot of changes here and re-import this part. Also you'll probably have to make a navigation pane sprite for these specs by yourself because mine is, yes, 1000px wide

The second problem is solved thank you for the help.

The first one sounds pretty hard but i noticed a link from you with a explanation about sprite and also a link to a page called Spriteme.
Which had a add-on for sprites and a demo on how it works.
So i will try making my own or try editing yours.

Thank you for your reaction.

Maybe you can just add this:
#list_surround br + :nth-child(2) {left: 50px;}
or this:
#list_surround br + :nth-child(2) {right: 25px;}
So you don't resize the headers but still see all of it

Hmm I can't think of any reason but if you put the Steins Gate layout back up on your list we can look at it. I'm sure it'll be fixable!

Sorry but when I click on the links I didn't see it reloading, so it must be something only you're seeing. Does it reload just once or multiple times or go back to the page it was just on? Do any other layouts do this?

Maybe log in and out, or mess around with your http://myanimelist.net/editprofile.php?go=listpreferences settings and see if anything clears it up! Also it might be something to do with your browser or computer. Sorry its hard to know!

Hmm I wish I knew why it reloads, the layouts are not supposed to do that. Does it reload back to the previous page or stay on the right category? Maybe you can try to narrow it down by shutting off programs on your com temporally like the MAL updater to see if that causes it, if you can't narrow it down to a browser doing the problem. Restart your com after you do that tho, cuz it can cause funny issues..

There are slow and down times, plus it depends on your internet speed and distance from where the import is hosted. Did you try to make your own import for it? Then you can load it from your own Dropbox or something.

I ended up doing that and the wait time dropped considerably, thanks!
Although there is still a brief delay, do you have any other tips for optimizing the code? I made very little modifications to the original.
I was also thinking of making the list itself wider, as I want to keep the drop down images but they clip with the titles. I tried increasing the width of the list but I was not able to expand the bar on the bottom so it looked asymmetrical.

I don't have any tips for that except to host it yourself as you did, I think its perfect how it is. You could mess around with the transition time and type on the DVD display to make it look smoother if thats something youre after.

@ AzureBlues
Merge all @imports (except for anime titles) and current code into a single CSS file and then use service like http://www.csscompressor.com/ or http://www.generateit.net/css-optimize/ for compressing CSS. It should help (the results will depend on internet speed a lot though)

well there are 2 ways one would be spliting up the headers and linking individually
or
using the provided and add this into ur code
/* This is the MATH part of the layout. Don't touch it unless you know what you're doing */
@import url(http://veriti.opendrive.com/files/OV81MjgxODZfN0NiSlU/mal_general.css);

inside is the stuff defines what to parts to use

Its a text shadow effect. This should remove it (add to the bottom of your CSS edit box):

.category_totals {
text-shadow: none !important;
}

You are probably right abou the open drive because nothing else changed about the code, it just messed up, so it must have been an external sourcing issue

I wrote a dropbox tutorial, it's here, so use it to import all of your stylesheet. Then look at it and find two lines:
@import url(http://veriti.opendrive.com/files/OV81MjgxODZfN0NiSlU/mal_general.css);
@import url(http://veriti.opendrive.com/files/OV81MjgxODdfcXZZMkg/mal_top_bar.css);

Replace each of these lines with contents of the text file you'll find when you open each link.

It seems the import links at the top died for some reason. They may come back in the future but for now replace those top four lines of code (seen here)..



Delete and replace those lines of code with these, and keep them at the top too:


/* Math part of the layout, don't change unless you know what you're doing */
@import "http://dl.dropbox.com/u/78340470/MahouLayoutCSS/MahouCSS.css";
/* Top bar */
@import "http://dl.dropbox.com/u/78340470/MahouLayoutCSS/Topbar%20redux.css";


It should fix it plus it will have less lag issues, since its Dropbox not Opendrive which tends to have some downtime now and then. The fix is for people using the manga list version as well!

The line in bold below was edited from what it originally was and is now interfering with your background-image code, so just delete it. Should work after that.

Should be fixed now. I changed the links and they un-suspended my account (you're allowed only once tho..) I hope MAL no longer makes any more site changes and gets the spambots under control, or else I will no longer be able to host these files for free
