Earlier it was set as unkown. If without Make - then only "unknown" in the "Make" field. If Make was known, but "Model" was empty - then was Model unknown (for example "Mercedes-Benz unknown").
Also - the photo selection button ("Browse...") could be in a more distinctive color (meaning darker gray, or something)

And - opening window for storing pictures is now too small on PC. I can see onlu disclaimer (on yellow background) and first option for upload pictures. Fetching and recompressing requires scrolling the screen.

The dropdown list for Class only has Car and Bike categories, everything else is listed under Bike.
Fixed

Indeed, there was an extra test when adding a vehicle, fixed.
About the button, you mean the current grey is not readable enough? It is already quite dark grey on my monitor
It is the "secondary" button from this list:
https://getbootstrap.com/docs/5.3/components/buttons/#variants
Which one should I pick for that Select button? The "Dark" one? Or the "Info"?
If so, I should do the same change for the buttons that allow to move the alternative titles in the "Edit alternative titles" page.

I increased it a little, but it seems that sometimes the browser keeps the size of the window in memory It does not give me the same window size on the test site and the real site, though that the size required in the code is the same

For the window size, it is OK for you now then? Or it should be wider/higher to show more content directly?

Or maybe slightly higher - for one scroll, not one and a bit of the second.

I increased it a little in both dimensions
For the grey button, you meant in the window of your screenshot? I thought you mean the "Select location" from Edit Vehicle page.
I'm not sure how to change the color of the "browse file".

Wider - not necessairy. But - maybe a bit more higher - for full visibility of resizing windows.

Yes, in the screenshot - selecting of the picture.

Making it wider allows the yellow box text to take less vertical space
Same for the buttons that can then go at the right of the fields.
I try to keep the height below 700 pixels, for the 720p displays (even if they are probably not common any more).
Is it better now?
What I should do is adding a button to hide the yellow panel once the user acknowledges it (and remember that). I'll add that in the next days.

When I'm trying to add vehicles to the site why am I seeing the admin page and not the normal page?

What do you mean by "the admin page"?
It was already displaying the title "Admin: ..." before.
If you mean the name of the page, it is because I merged the code of the "add" ("ajout") and "edit" pages together in single "admin" pages.

Here is what the screen looks like when I try to add a vehicle:
It appears as it would for an admin and not a regular user.

It is exactly the same contents as before, but with a new layout (that's the purpose of the update of today).
Admins do not have the "important notes" block of text above the fields.

Late to the party. Just noticed the change yesterday
Seems to work well on mobile. I have only edited extra info and year. I thought maybe my iphone updated without me knowing

Can we have an option to switch back to the old add/edit vehicle display? I don't like the new one.

A couple of things I've noticed so far:
- "Change number" should be edited back to "Change IMDB number"
- I can't remove the vehicle location anymore (some users always add it even when it's useless).
Ehm, I'm with Sigurd. Also, I just find quite annoying that I have to scroll down the page when clicking on 'update this vehicle' now.

I can't manage both styles together, here I made the code more simple to maintain by merging add & edit pages, it is not for duplicating mobile & non-mobile
I can fine tune some things if there are specific issues, but often the slightest change seems to be bad but people end up getting new habits.
The old admin pages were really from another time, even when they were made 20 years ago they already looked outdated
There is a scroll on the vehicle update page? On my screen all is shown on the screen height but maybe if you have a larger font size a scrollbar appears.
I decreased the general font size of admin pages, if you force refresh one of the admin pages it should update the cache and show the smaller text size.
Later I can try to reduce a little the margins between rows, hoping it does not make it difficult to use on mobile again.
Note that for saving you also have the shortcut Alt+Shift+S (or Alt+S depending on your browser settings), in addition to validating with the Enter key.
About the number change, I removed the IMDb mention since not all movies have an IMDb number (it was a text from the beginning of the site when we were listing only stuff that exists on IMDb). Is it really a problem that it says just "Change number"?
Location can be cleared now.
