Problem with Bulbapedo
Images are sometimes not shown due to bandwidth/network limitations. Refreshing the page usually helps.

On the entire right part of the page (where important imagine are usually located), I can't click on pictures
The arrow just won't turn into a hand

Did Pomf fuck up his website's sole use or is it me?
>>
>>26834839
Works for me, must be on your end.
>>
>>26834839
Bravo Pomf.
>>
>>26834839
Solution: Get monitor with better resolution.
>>
>>26834839
I can't click on links either, or select text. It's like there's something over the right side of the screen.
>>
>>26834839
There is a bug where if the screen is not large enough, it won't click the right side.
>>
>>26834839
I actually find I can't click the page pictures too sometimes. But that only happens to me on mobile.

If you wanna save the pics you may have to just go to Bulbagarden Archives.
>>
Hm, I've had this same problem with a phone
>screen is not large enough
But my phone is 1920x1080...?
>>
>>26834839
I have the same problem.
It isn't just the infoboxes, but also the navboxes at the bottom of the page can't be used from time to time.
>>
I don't know if it's the same case for all mobile devices, but I can't click on it at all on the 3DS, no matter how shrunk down it is.
>>
>>26835074
Oh, silly. There is a mobile view button. That makes it work.
>>
I have the same problem when using the site on my iPad. I have to switch to the desktop site to be able to use any links on the right side of the page.
>>
I have the same problem, zooming out a bit enables me to click stuff
>>
>>26834839
Do you use an ad blocker?
>>
>>26835493
>browsing bulbapedo without an adblocker
Absolute madman
>>
>>26834839
Same. I cant click eight arrow, all pictures and abilities. I thought something is wrong with my browser, but its not.

I mean right.

OP here
I'm not on mobile but I use an old square screen of resolution 1152x864
>>
>>26835767
My computer screen is 1366x768. Bulbapedo was working previously.
>>
>>26834839
Has stopped working for me too.

What gives?
>>
>>26834911
bulbapedia's page layout is shit, what a surprise
>>
>>26836403
meant to reply to >>26834839
>>
I've been having that problem too. Anyone know what gives?
>>
>>26835493
Not him, but i always used with browsing Bulbapedo and it never gave me this problem.

I've been experiencing this for like two weeks, now.
>>
Right-click that area and ad-block it. It worked for me.
>>
>>26837535
There is nothing to block there for me
>>
>>26837535
>>26837573
Nvm I had to go into block elements tab, didn't work at first.
>>
>>26837535
Thanks mate
>>
>>26837674
>>26837706
I'm still having problems with it
>>
I just plain can't click on anything on that shitty site. Been that way for months.

Not links, not boxes, not anything.
>>
>>26837519
They added an advert thing on the right side about a few weeks ago.

>>26834839
Yup. There's a problem with the layout. There's a floating container for ads in the right side, that doesn't actually have anything, but it's there. The person who caused that is a freaking idiot that doesn't even use their own website.
>>
>>26834839
I have my monitor set up to have two windows side by side. That way I can look at two things at once. I experience this problem when the web browser is not maximized. To click something on the right I have to maximize the screen which is tedious and annoying.It hasn't always been like that but it's been like that for a while. There was a bit of that when I tried to click some buttons like the one that [show] buttons but now it's much worse.

It's a pretty big problem but I'm surprised such a shit site doesn't have more problems. I also use veekun but bulbapedia is better for some things and veekun is better for others.

It's not just you. I've had the exact same problem for a while now, but I have no idea why it happens. It even happens on mobile.

Zoom out one, it should work

I have the same problem OP.
I think it's a shitty ploy to get people to go to his new bulba archives.

You literally can't view the original resolution of images on bulbapedia anymore and instead have to go to bulbarachives.

Pompft a shit.

http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Nidoking_(Pok%C3%A9mon)

Look at the bluetext that could easily be a fucking hyperlink.
>>
>>26834839
Same problem here but also can't click the ability names on Pokemon pages, which is pretty annoying when I have to figure out what Justified and Guts do
>>
>>26841189
Wonder if Pomf went off the deep end.
The site worked flawlessly a few weeks ago.
Maybe he's still upset that people don't use bulba for news. There are those giant banners begging for Sun/Moon email news subscriptions.

could you give me the specific name? i get ##.rightcoladbox but its already blocked, its like the space is reserved by a glass wall but i cant click behind it

ITT: People with shitty browsers.

It works on my side.
>>
>>26841371
What browser?
>>
>>26834839
Thought I was the only one
>>
>>26841377
Firefox. 1920x1080 resolution if it matters.
>>
>>26841407
Same browser and same resolution. It's fine if it's maximized but screws up when it's windowed. This is me >>26840582
>>
>>26834839
Add
bulba-ad-host-website.azurewebsites.net
to your blocklist. That did the trick for me.
>>
>>26841529
Did you get a large white space to the right too after doing it?
>>
Pomf ruins everything.
>>
guys, i've figured it out
bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net###rightcolbox
add to your adbloc, or simply highlight that part on site yourself
works for me
>>
It does this on my phone too
>>
What if vp made their own pokemon encyclopaedia, but way better than bulbapedia?

Same here.
Curious thing is that it seems to be only on Bulbapedia, seeing as Pokéwiki (Ger), Poképédia (Fra) and Pokémon Central (Ita) allow me to view original resolutions.
>>26841144
Indeed
>>
>>26834839
Bulbapedo made a mistake. They've put an invisible box on top of everything on the right, preventing you from clicking anything the box covers. Right-click an select Inspect Element, select the box and hit Delete. Problem solved.
>>
>>26843437
And why didn't they realize and fix it?
>>
>>26835027
I'm using my PC and I have the same problem. I think the Pokémon-related ads fucked up the page.
>>
>>26834839
Is your window maximized? I use Adblock and only have that issue if my window isn't maxed.
>>
>>26834839

Why do people use this site?

I know this is rhetorical
But because Pedo

It really triggers me

What's even the purpose of that

>>26845178
Some shit about wanting to look like a professionally edited encyclopedia.
>>
>>26845681
But it's not. It's an overgrown blog.
