Display Form differences on the same list item with different versions of DFFS

[Kelvin Brooks]

I have been using DFFS v. 4.4.3.10 for a while now. I decided to upgrade DFFS to v 4.4.3.42. When I upgraded to the newer version by importing the settings, the display of the form changed. Screen shots attached. The screen shots show the display form of the same list item, same DFFS settings and the same browser zoom level. Just the DFFS versions are different.

Because of the view changes, I decided to roll back to v 4.4.3.10 and the form displayed the way I designed it.

Can you provide any insight to why this happened or what I did wrong? I would like to upgrade my existing DFFS installations to the latest and greatest versions, without having to spend time to redo each form.

Thank you for your time and expertise. This truly is a great product

Ah, yes this is caused by a setting added by request from another user with problems lining up some side-by-side fields. I didn’t realize that it would mess with the layout for others…

I described the change here: https://spjsblog.com/dffs/dffs-change-log/#DFFS_frontendcss_v444

I have had another question in the forum related to the same issue: https://spjsblog.com/forums/topic/sbs_outertable/

You can either override it in your Custom CSS, or edit the css file to remove the setting.

Let me know if you have any further questions.
