I'm seeing the same issue here. Seems to be caused when viewing the site on laptops/computers with lower resolution screens (if you want to call 1366x768 low). I am looking at the site on two different laptops, with same win7 OS, same chrome browser and the only difference really is that the second computer has a HD monitor with much higher screen resolution. I think that one simple option would be to put both the help and "gold" button under the system menu. Or maybe the web interface guru has a better idea? I'm sure there are many ways to solve this problem.

same here, i've got 3screen desktop i've already tried pulling the browser over 3 screens it doesn't help.
tried it with firefox and chromium, .. this just pisses me off just for some advertisement link.

my resolusion is 1920x1080 …
-
I was wrong - Other than screen resolution, there was another difference. On the laptop that is having the problem, I already had another site open in another tab before I opened pfsense admin console in a second tab. I close all tabs, and the browser, opened the browser with only 1 tab, went directly to the pfsense admin console and the problem was gone.
So, I guess shutting down the browser and reopening it with only pfsense up did the trick for me on that laptop.
-
Does it change when opening more tabs again??
-
I'll try and see….

Whats your OS on the laptop?
I guess we have here two issue, one with the browser cache and one with a Linux OS. -
After I shutdown and restarted the Chrome browser on windows7 pro, the issue did not reappear even if I had other tabs up first.
Its an odd issue I guess.
I can try also on my Linux machine and see what happens there, but I suspect there will be no problem.
-
OK - Tried this on Linux Mint using google chrome (Not chromium) and works fine. If its a problem with linux, its not every distro or every browser.
-
Can you test Firefox 31 as well?
-
Sure - I just did. Works fine with firefox 31 also on linux mint.
-
Thanks for testing.
Missing font problem?
-
No idea. I suspect its purely a cache problem. Like for whatever reason, your browser is holding onto data that is messing things up for you.
-
Found it!
On my Debian system was some more fonts, as well the "Verdana" font.
https://packages.debian.org/wheezy/ttf-mscorefonts-installerI replace in the all.css fiel the following lines:
html, body, td, th, input, select { font-family: Tahoma,Verdana,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; <----- from font-size: 0.9em; }
html, body, td, th, input, select { font-family: Tahoma,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; <----- to font-size: 0.9em; }
And it work fine!
-
Thats cool - But I suspect if there wasn't something weird going on with the new pfsense gui, we wouldn't have ever noticed such problems.
-
The "Verdana" font does not feel well on Debian Linux ;D
I guess the spacing is a little bit different which results in this broken gui. -
when here is unchecked everything is OK …

Which is in the end the similar problem. :)
