While I was navigating through Roblox experiences, I noticed a bug within the HTML layout in the Badges section. Previously, @bvetterdays made a bug report stating that this would be happening to moderated images, and it was fixed. However, this bug returned and is occurring in every image.
Reproduction Steps
Open the Roblox website on any software.
Find an experience that contains badges. In this report, I chose Fisch.
Observe the images in the Badges section.
Expected behavior
I expected that every image should be formatted properly.
Actual Behavior
After looking at the Inspect Element mode, I noticed the settings are misconfigured, making it large.
Well, since you cannot reproduce on your end, that’s pretty much odd… But, don’t worry, though, I sent my browser information in a PM linked in this post!
True, this is very likely. Roblox already rolled this back for one extension and I think there needs to be a point where they stop making these changes compatible with every extension. It should be the extension developers’ responsibility to update their own code to stop messing with the HTML here. CC @LLOR3NZ (just some feedback)
If Roblox was to accomodate every single extension in every one of their website updates/changes, this would delay their development by weeks if not months. It just doesn’t seem very feasible to me, although I very much appreciate the consideration of extension users
Yes, of course, but for tiny changes like this that have little to no user-facing impact it’s really not worth it when the extension developers can easily push an update to the code to adapt to the changes. Should be considered on a case-by-case basis IMO.
I agree that it should be case-by-case basis, and it’s honestly a blessing they are supporting extention creators at all in the first place.
The biggest thing I wanted to say is, I don’t believe extension creators will know when Roblox does a silent update like this, resulting in them not updating the extension for a while. This will actively harm extension users, so I see why it is done.
Now that I think of it, this may be a bug since they released a custom character skintone selector into the website already. Might make a report on this.
To weigh in on the conversation - it is definitely tricky from the engineering side since we can’t accommodate how our changes will interact with every extension.
With that said, I’ll make sure I get this resolved for (hopefully) all major affected extensions as soon as I can!
Hopefully in the future we’ll have a pipeline that opens the communication channel between us and our extension creators whenever we make these sorts of breaking frontend changes
I’m happy to say that we have figured out the issue! The BTRoblox developer had made a change that should allow the badge icons to display properly. While this change was already live in BTRoblox on the Chrome Web Store, it is not yet on the Firefox extension as they have a longer review process. The change should be live (hopefully) within 3-4 days, and this issue should resolve itself
Sorry for the inconvenience until then, and thank you all for your patience!
@JuanGamerPlayz_RBLX The extension should now be fixed on Firefox! If you are still having issues on your end, please let me know. Otherwise, I am going to go ahead and close this bug report. Thanks again for your patience!
I was waiting for your message to be displayed as 4/5 days ago to wait for anything new patiently. Unfortunately, the problem still remains and I can still see it:
So sorry you’re still seeing it - could you do me a favor and go into the settings of your BTRoblox Extension on Firefox? Check if the Last Updated says December 9 - otherwise you may need to reset firefox / reinstall the extension.
