With one exception, everything worked fine in Chrome, Safari, and Firefox.

I noticed that the content text in the exhibit item display page (/exhibits/show/holmes/item/316) seems to have no padding or margins and just runs right up against the side of the content box:

Everything displayed consistently in Chrome, Safari, and Firefox.

I also noticed the padding issue for all of the Seasons variations. Also, for the Seasons themes, the padding under the captions is too small, which makes the caption seem associated with the block following.

I did find one unexpected behavior: when selecting theme, the user must save before they select "configure." If not, selecting "configure" sends the user to the settings for the previously selected theme. This was unexpected and caused frustration. Configure should also save the change of theme.

I looked at all the themes in IE 10, running on Windows 7. Everything displayed ok - some of the colors were off but my screen seemed very blue in its calibration, so that could be a local problem.

One systematic problem I found was that the maps were displaying awkwardly. The pan buttons would not load correctly and map data would load incompletely across all of the themes. map errors in seasons 2

Also, in all PC browsers, the yellow item titles in Seasons-Dark are getting lost on the white background of the map bubbles. Any chance of adding a dark box behind it to help in readability? dark_seasons_map_item_title

@kimisgold the comments above are from our exhibit builder testing w/themes.

zerocrates commented 10 years ago

Map issues are likely to be issues with Geolocation. It'd be worth knowing if the same complaints/issues apply to the maps on item pages or the map browse.

sheilabrennan commented 10 years ago

Yep, was just testing it. And will post that in the Geolocation plugin repo.

zerocrates commented 10 years ago

@sheilabrennan, were you able to confirm the other problems @jerielizabeth mentioned, with the broken pan buttons and incomplete map data?

zerocrates commented 10 years ago

The margin issues reported by @jerielizabeth and @mebrett on the item pages should be resolved with the latest pull.

Item pages within exhibits should now correspond exactly to their counterparts in the normal theme.

jerielizabeth commented 10 years ago

Margin for item pages with Seasons displaying correctly in Chrome, Safari, and Firefox on Mac.

mebrett commented 10 years ago

Margin issue is resolved for me as well.

sheilabrennan commented 10 years ago

Excellent.
