The gallery is gone: New 'Blog' and 'Getting Started' Tabs

Forum Help
#1

Just noticed we now have two new tabs in place of the never finished ‘Galley’ tab :shocked:

#2

I don’t understand. Why does blog lead to a page with an iframe that has blog.roblox.com instead of just going straight to blog.roblox.com? :X

#3

Wasn’t “Getting Started” already there?

Anyhow, perhaps that blog will be an update blog or something? Though that seems pointless since we have the forum. Not sure…

You confuse me, Roblox admins :?

If a random developer from the Internets comes to this site, not knowing anything about ROBLOX, and not having been to any other ROBLOX pages, I’d like them to get some idea what’s possible with the ROBLOX platform. Sending them to the ROBLOX blog takes them away from here. Eventually I’d like to make this site the destination for random developers who hear about our platform, informing them how it works and what is possible. The forum will continue to be private.

Edit: I don’t love the i-frame. It just shows articles in the “Development” category from the Blog. I was not able to get the result I wanted for that page and will iterate on it more later.

#5

Please set frameborder of the iframe to 0, it’d look much more beautiful.

Reese, on average sized mobile screens, the drop down menu is now fully hidden behind the landing pictures making navigating to the Login page impossible.

I can screenshot it if you’d like me to.

@Kevin, yeah I need a screenshot. Thanks.

#8

Actually, someone seems to have fixed it since I checked last night.

The rest of the buttons however are still obscured behind the landing pictures as seen here:

#9

We don’t know how to fix it. Did the menu always go behind the image? For now please use a bookmark.

#10

Yeh it’s always been this way, but I only paid attention to it when you guys removed some of the tabs and the Developer Forum tab became inaccessible.

Is it not possible to detect when a person is on a mobile on the site, and then remove the landing images based on that information? (I’m not sure how this works, I’m no web developer.)
The text on the images is too small to be legible on mobile anyway so they don’t serve a huge purpose there as it stands.

#11

Shouldn’t be a hard website fix, it seems to just be a [strike]positioning [/strike]+ z-index issue, I tested and simply changing the z-index for the class ‘nav-collapse icemegamenu collapse’ so it is above the slideshow thingy (so z-index: 100 or something) [strike]and then changing the position to absolute fixes it. [/strike](still looks pretty ugly since it’s width is based off the content box not screen size but meh) ps: im no web expert so someone smarter give the proper fix thing

edit : derp on position, it seems to be fine, just z-index stuff

#12

Is ROBLOX looking for anyone that’s familiar with Kuena and Joomla?
