The VIP chip never received the reference .but geometry. Commit f03d72c8
narrowed the legacy selector from a descendant to a child combinator as a
side effect of an unrelated user-popover fix, and the contract test then
pinned the narrowed form. Because the VIP anchor lives inside the
hover-show wrapper rather than being a direct child of .navbar-but, it
fell back to the bare .but defaults: 15px type instead of 0.8em, no
0.4em margin, and no padding override.
Restore the descendant selector so both chips share one geometry:
- .navbar-top .navbar-but .but is byte-identical to the reference again,
giving the VIP chip font-size 0.8em, padding 0.3em 1em !important and
margin 0.4em
- the publish and VIP anchors are plain inline-block .but elements again
(the merged flex container no longer blockifies them)
- ml10 is back on the VIP anchor; .navbar-top .navbar-but .but overrides
it exactly as it does in the reference, so it stays markup parity
without changing the computed margin
The right cluster was also merged into one .aksrt-navbar-actions flex
container with a 10px gap and zero padding, while the reference emits
three floated .navbar-form.navbar-right groups whose 15px padding is what
produces the inter-cluster spacing. Split them again: publish/VIP in
.navbar-but, theme toggle plus language switcher in a flex ac group, and
the account row in its own group. Measured against the reference, the
publish-to-VIP gap was 19.6px instead of 9.6px, and VIP-to-theme-toggle
was 14.8px instead of 34.8px.
The container rules in header-userbox.css are re-anchored onto the
reference structure: .aksrt-navbar-account owns the only remaining flex
context, .toggle-radius and .aksrt-navbar-language are scoped through
.navbar-form, and the hover-show rule targets .navbar-but. Coverage of
those selectors is unchanged, so the theme toggle, language switcher and
message icon keep their current geometry.
The .aksrt-navbar-actions wrapper and its gap are gone; a negative
assertion now guards against reintroducing them.
Verified: node --test across tests/ (603 passing), php -l on the changed
PHP files, and a stubbed render of aksrt_menu_button() for guest,
logged-in and layout 2.
