Description Yann Forget 2011-07-28 17:02:13 UTC
Hello, The current site notice can't be hidden (Scholarship applications are invited for Wiki Conference India being held from 18-20 November, 2011 in Mumbai. Apply here. Last date for application is August 15, 2011.)
I use Chrome on Ubuntu. Thanks, Yann

Same issue on Mozilla Firefox.

This probably isn't a bug but a poorly made CentralNotice. It still needs to be fixed though. CCing some people who like to make CentralNotices -- maybe one of them is willing to edit the notice and fix this. :-)

Aye this was an error in the banner code. I've fixed and tested it now and so am going to close. It was already pushed out to my browser (firefox and chrome Ubuntu) but may take up to 10 minutes or so to get everywhere because of the cache. 

The good news is that Kaldari just finished (and I'm testing as we speak) a new hiding system that will 1. Allow you to hide just fundraising banners (or non fundraising banners) and 2. Will mean that we no longer need the css that has caused this error sporadically when people didn't update their copy/pasted code.

It also means that later on we'll be able to let people choose what 'type' of banners they want to see.. for the start it will just be fundraising/non fundraising. That code will likely get pushed out in 2 weeks or so (right after wikimania) and will take a week or two of time to transition into the new system.

Please reopen/let us know if this isn't working in the next 10 minutes or so.
