Mahz's Dev Journal

@Mahz Just checking up to see where on the list the arena ranking list was, the addition we talked about so I can see everyone who is listed, instead of the top five(short of hunting for everyone and hovering over their W-L-Ds

@Ruby We believe there is a plan in place to make a "0th post" system, which would by default be visible on all pages of each appropriate tab (with the option to disable that if wished). This post is then meant to be editable both by GM and co-GM(s).

[Lord Santa]

There was a problem, but turns out it wasn't really so don't worry about it. Ignore this.

[NuttsnBolts]

Something I've noticed with Edits.

If a thread post is edited, a time stamp for "last edited" is placed on the top of the post, however in PM messages the time stamp doesn't exist. Should it?

[TheUnknowable]

Is there a way to unsub from large numbers of topics at a time?

[Ellri]

other than the red X thingies on the subscriptions page, no @TheUnknowable.

[TheUnknowable]

ok, I only knew of that and "go to each topic and click "unsubscribe". Both are slow because you have to keep reloading pages.

[Hank]

I have the same problem with selectively dismissing several notifications at once. It seems like your only options are all or just one.

[Mahz]

My free-time right now is still severely limited while I'm trying to focus on some other responsibilities I have in the cold, hard, real world, and I've only been able to work maybe 3 days on the guild over the past 60 days.

@Mahz Would it be possible to have a "Create First Post" option for GMs in RP threads? Push a button, fill out your post, and it's auotmatically the first post of IC/OOC/Character (whatever's desired) section?

@Ruby

Yeah, this is a cool feature that's actually pretty straightforward for me to build. It's one of the top 5 features on my priority list and will function kind of like an optional "0th post" on each tab so it integrates well with the current system without changing much.

@Rilla

Thanks for the reminder. I created an official issue for it: github.com/danneu/guild/issues/79.

@NuttsnBolts

Wow, good catch. Yeah, I can confirm that editing a PM doesn't actually reveal anywhere that it's been edited much less when. Created an issue: github.com/danneu/guild/issues/80

@Hank

Yeah, ideally at the very least you could rapid-fire the X buttons, but it's built so primitively right now that you have to endure a full-page refresh for every X. :(

I'm figuring out when I can take a 1-month break to focus on the guild. Though I bet the first week of that will be spent just catching up on PMs.

@Mahz

Think I pointed it out a while back... That, and the fact that the user titles don't show up in PM-threads.

[Ellri]

Only the first week, @Mahz? We need to work harder on that front... Its gotta be made into at least two...

[Dinh AaronMk]

Apparently the bio segment of our profiles does not scale images. Or maybe it's because I put it in a hider.

@Mahz

You said help you out by sending you PMs?

Done.

[Shienvien]

Huh... Looks like my logout issue has corrected itself with some Firefox update. That, or it was some odd fluke, and it'll be back the next time around. Remains to be seen.

[FacePunch]

Are the time stamps off for anyone else? I posted in a thread just a few minutes ago, but my subscription feed says it was two hours ago. Unless I've suddenly time traveled.

@FacePunch

Looks correct to me. Check your computer's clock - it's calculated from your local time settings and server time.

[Ellri]

Aye. It does base it on computer's time in relation to UTC. So if your clock is behind, it'll sometimes say "in two minutes" or such. But if your clock is 2 hours ahead, timestamps will claim posts were written two hours ago.

[NuttsnBolts]

I noticed something that may need to be addressed on a thread management level.

In the roleplay discussion area there was a thread with the lovely title of "**** you" and I am proud to see that the mods addressed it so that it was removed and blocked from the members sights, however the link for the thread's existance remained on the front page of the site as it was the last thread to be posted in.

[Ellri]

Yes, hidden threads are like that. A small bit of tweaking to the code ought to fix it. Of course, till that happens, having a habit among staff to post something in some thread within the relevant section ought to serve well.
