    Installed latest update and it broke some of our page formatting?

    Take a look at our search box at the top of the page and also the links at the bottom. Seems like we have a css issue after our update!


    Thanks,

    CSS often changes between releases.

    what version have you upgraded from and to please?

      We're on 5.51 now. Not sure what we were on before but we install vb5 back in August of last year. If we can fix the search box, that would be enough. it looks like the search button is wrapping to the next line.

      The "back to top" link in the footer doesn't have any padding so it looks broken but... not a big deal.

        If you have custom CSS related to your Search box in the css_additional.css template, please remove or comment it out. Does that resolve the problem?

        If not, make sure your header template is not modified in the Style Manager.

          I don't... however, I removed all the css_additional styles and saved/reloaded and that didn't help.

          header template? is that bare_header?

          Actually, I changed to a completely different style "wood" and the problem remains. So, it doesn't seem related to a specific style template right?

            No. It is the header template. bare_header is only used in vBulletin Messenger.

              Yup, found that in the template list. it's not in red so that means it's not modified, correct?

                Are any of the templates under CSS Templates modified? The only CSS templates that should be modified are css_additional.css and css_fonts.css, and css_sprite_icons_general.css. This will prevent many issues tied to CSS updates from occurring.

                Did Final Upgrade Step 22 (This is the very last step) properly finish when running the upgrade?

                If you switch to storing your CSS as files under Settings -> Options -> Style & Language Options, does it fix the issue?

                  We reverted the css and that fixed things. Thanks for your help!
