Site Update 3.6.2
Avatar
  • Fixed markdown editor resetting its height when typing.
  • Fixed some users not being able to save their user settings.
  • Changed heading's font weight to be a bit less heavy.
  • Added text shadow for colored text on light mode.
  • Added new anchor buttons to headings:
  • Added new API routes:
    • api.modworkshop.net/latest Returns - latest file by version, this works best when paired with semver. You can also use ?prerelease to get prerelease files.
    • api.modworkshop.net/latest/version - same as the previous but returns version.
    • api.modworkshop.net/primary - returns the primary file (if it's set and is a file)
    • api.modworkshop.net/latest/version - same as previous but returns version.
  • Updated Nuxt and Laravel to latest.

I noticed formatting on my modpage after this update has broke and now appear squashed.

From a glance on your mod, I think you are misusing headers, don't use them on long text like this. That being said, I will look into changing how headers work with long text.

it wasn't squashed like this in the past and i haven't touched any of this text since i uploaded the mod a year ago.

I don't understand how me using #, ## and colour changing formatting in long text is misuing headers. I uploaded this mod 1 year ago and my mod has always used headers this way and worked perfectly fine with 0 issues. After this update, and I'm assuming this update based on "Changed heading's font weight to be a bit less heavy." Now all my headers especially those that change the font colour or have a link are completely broken. All my headers are on seperate lines but are now formatted to be on the same line which is squashed and making text unreadable.

This isn't the only weird bugs I've noticed on site. There's the forced auto scroll to bottom of the page bug when you click "load more" at the bottom of the page on mods, however you said this is intentional despite the fact it never did this in the past and it's quite annoying. This has also started happening on modpages where the page auto jumps to the bottom of the comment section IF it is on screen whatsoever when scrolling in the mod description. So on mods where the mod description is incredibly short I'm instantly jumped to the bottom of comment section for no reason.

This stuff is genuinely annoying to deal with, especially that I use MWS practically daily and I really want it to be fixed as it's starting to make the site unuseable.

@nazuna_invitine headers are supposed to be used for short text, they are not designed for long text. This is true for any text editors including word.
I only suggested that you'd change it to fix it for now until I push a fix for this. The reason it broke is due to using display:flex to center the new heading link button, but I'll just do something else and it'll be fixed. I never claimed that this is going to stay. Update: pushed a hotfix.

I am not sure why that happens to you, I tried it on Firefox and Edge and as you can see it doesn't jump at all. Could you record it happening and say which browser it happens in? Maybe it's some addon causing it.

@luffy from what i can tell at least on desktop the mod load one doesn't happen anymore as threads are always present, but does happen on mobile, however the one with mod comments does happen both on Firefox, Opera and Chrome, if you scroll down to the bottom header at all it will jump you to the bottom of the comment section.

This specific one keeps happening constantly to me as it's quite easy to accidentally do it especially if you are looking at the downloads section or mods with small description tabs as it requires less scrolling for it to just do it.

extra example on random mods:

@nazuna_invitine the comments issue is probably real, I'm not sure why it happens and it seems to be some weird browser behavior. I'll look into it, but please open a separate thread.

@luffy if you scroll fast enough on the main page for mods it does also happen to threads if you get to the bottom of the page first cause i just had that happen as i went to go make a thread. Anyways made a thread now, https://modworkshop.net/thread/12670
