Yeah, I'm having an issue with pictures I post, they don't seem to load. I use [img][/img] but don't seem to show up. I thought it was just on my iPad, but then I checked my PC, and the problem still happens.

I looked at your post history to see if I could find an example. I saw that you had spaces between the link and the img tags: [img] http://example.com/some/image.png [/img]. I edited your post to remove the spaces and it worked. I'll make it so that the [img] tag ignores spaces. But in the meantime just be careful about extraneous spaces.

Hey Mahz, I was just thinking of an unimportant feature that would be nice _{(at least until PM notifications get altered)}: PM Deletion. Right now, I have a couple PMs to myself as notes, and it would be great to be able to delete them because right now they show up in my PMs count and I can foresee that number getting to some pretty ridiculous heights in the future, especially if I keep on using it for RP notes. I know I can make just one for myself and keep editing it so the numbers don't get high, but I didn't think of that until a few minutes ago and I already have a few posts to myself... I'm hoping that in the future you'll be able to figure out a way to have a "new/unviewed" count instead of a total, but I know how hard that is having built a forum myself...so no rush, for real. Also, if you could let an original topic poster be able to edit the Title of their topic, that would be awesome, because sometimes I don't have the best title for an RP at the time that I post it or I come up with a better one later. Anyway, thanks for being so awesome and active! And thank you for BBCode! It's super wonderful!

The total PM count is a hack until I implement a mechanism that can track unread PMs. It's lame, but it works. I look forward to replacing it with an unread count. PM-management is a heavily requested feature next to BBCode, so it's near the top of my short-term list. I originally wanted to have a system that would show "Hank left this conversation 6 hours ago" and cross Hank off the participants list. And various other bits of polish like that. But I need to just belt out the simplest solution that works and move on. Yeah, I need to make topic titles editable. Should be easy. Threw up a bunch of TODOs to remind myself: https://github.com/danneu/guild/issues

Now it's a sentence.

In light of Spoiler/Hider no longer working...

Not able to reproduce on any version of any desktop browser on Windows 7 at http://browserstack.com, naturally . Sounds like a straight-up browser bug related to https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/white-space.

Placing two spaces between sentences that run over into a second line causes the to sentences to overlap. Here is an example that shows this happening. "Mythology" and "The" are overlapping. I know that this was more of a "if Ares dies", but I don't think the potential of the Greek gods dying meshes well with Greek Mythology. The Greek gods are called the athanatoi (ἀθάνατοι, 'immortal, deathless') for a reason.

Dedonus

I see the overlapping.

ravenDivinity

Thanks. I don't see the overlapping, so I'll track down what's hatnin.

OMG BBCODE Okay, so this is something for further down the line, but would it be possible to put keyboard shortcuts for the various BBCode things? Like how CTRL+B on other platforms makes Boldtext code appear?

Mercenary Lord

You can now hover over the buttons to see their hotkeys (if they have one). I haven't given them all hotkeys yet. Ctrl-b works, for example.

- Can't reproduce the Preview mode messing with native undo. The BBCode editor buttons themselves mess with undo because they don't trigger "InsertText" events. So interleaving manual writing with BBCode buttons will hose the undo system.

Mahz

Just tried without any BBCode, still can't undo.

Oh. Works in latest Chrome and Firefox on my machine. Not sure what I can do about that at the moment.

At some point, will the nesting quotes be disabled?

There's one feature we wonder if you're planning (for moderators)... The ability to change post authors. It would be very convenient for RPs when the one who posted the first IC/OoC/CS post leaves for some reason or other, as it means the remaining players can keep the RP running in the same thread.

Ellri

I agree with this. It would be quite helpful.

LegendBegins

I don't see myself disabling nested quotes, but there are probably some better defaults. Maybe by default "Reply" doesn't grab any of the nested quotes and there's a "Full Reply" button that does. Or maybe there's a "Toggle Advanced Mode" user-option that adds buttons beyond "Reply" and "Edit".

I'll give it a shot right now.
