that annoying hidden-author-name phenomenon
#1
So I got tired of the behaviour where the forum would scroll past and hide the author's name when doing "show new posts" or, for that matter, clicking directly on a certain post. I think I fixed it.

It was in the theme. Note to self as much as to anyone else: I edited the template's "postbit" and modified the a tag to include style "margin-top: -125px; padding-top: 125px; display: inline-block;". This all seems to be stored in the db rather than on disk. I followed instructions at https://css-tricks.com/hash-tag-links-padding/.

A million thanks. So much less scrolling in my future!

Huge thank you. I tried a bunch of things that didn't work. I was convinced it was a faulty anchor placement but I guess not. Thank you!!!
