@parakeet the grey background is right. I don’t know why there’s a white background at the top extending beyond the header area. site url?
@mercime, bakepad dot com
@parakeet checked your site with Firefox, Chrome, Safari, IE 9, and Opera == all okay. Have you fixed this already? What OS are you using?
@mercime
This is so weird. It’s still screwy in my Mac Chrome. And even screwy in Safari today, which it wasn’t last night.
Android Chrome is fine (responsive size), iOS iPad Safari background is fine.
I’ve also just cleared Mac Chrome’s cache and cookies. No effect.
Ugh?! 🙁
One thing I’ve worked out… this is only happening when the browser window is desktop-width. Contracting it to sub-desktop width typical for mobiles, even on the desktop, shows the background fine, all grey…
+ I just restored a snapshotted version of the bp-default folder from a few days back. But STILL I’m seeing the screwy background.
@mercime,
Ok, now I’ve deleted my entire public_html contents, databases and users, reinstalled WordPress, BuddyPress 1.7b2, installed no other plugins, switched to bp-default…
And STILL I’m seeing the white colour block.
Also, I have a report from a friend elsewhere that this is showing, too.
Time to start filing this as a bug? Can we widen the discussion so I can get a fix? This is bugging me.
Thanks very much.
I have flushed my DNS cache. No change on my computer.
Alternative computer, Ubuntu laptop, on same network – background appears okay.
Help please?
Ok, this is resolved…
FYI (and, more so, to self) – what it needed was a full page refresh in both browsers (that’s: cmd + shift + r). I was doing a lesser kind of refresh (shift + reload) that I thought was fuller.
However this became stuck (between deleting the files and reinstalling BuddyPress), something needed flushing fully.
