    I don't if this has been reported before, but I just noticed that thread titles in BST are cut off/overlap and don't extend into double lines if they are long. This problem's there in chrome, Mozilla and IE.

    Like this: [​IMG]

    Further more even the adsense ads at the top have the URL missing.

    Nothing I can do about the AdSense ads... that's Google's thing.

    For the overlap, yes I know... believe it or not it's actually intentional. Not allowing long titles to wrap and then hiding them behind the adjacent column is less ugly than how vBulletin 4 works currently when it wraps. It's a known issue/bug that hopefully they will get worked out and then we can go back to wrapping long titles.

    In the meantime, widen your browser. :)

    If you can come up with a better solution... by all means let me know. I spent days on this one trying to make it work how I want, but never could.

    Yeah, it's not an issue with the wrapping, it's an issue with the adjacent area (replies and posts) being a different color and that color not extending vertically when it does wrap. Notice the link in your example, they gave up and just removed the color? :)

    Why isnt it possible??

    I no longer visit this site cause it looks horrible compared to what we had here before!!

    I dont care what anyone thinks of what im saying.... ANYONE THAT PUTS VB4 ON TIHER SITE CLEARLY DOESNT CARE ABOUT IT OR THEY WOULDNT DEGRADE IT LIKE THIS! (Worst VB release ever)

    I really dont know whats happend to peoples sense of what "GOOD" is :( (Many sites im on have gone VB4 and i have turned on all of them (I just cant figure out why they would put this on thier site when what they had before WAS 10000% better))

    Can't you make the replies/views box the same color as the rest? Like we have on the main forum page. Would it work then?

    If its possible to do so only in the BST section, maybe you could consider it. If people can't read the titles they probably won't click it. With premium threads the problem is bigger when "Premium/Ending" is prefixed to them even more characters get truncated or overlap the price.

    I think most of us would prefer that till VB comes up with a fix.
