@Ellri I haven't implemented pagination yet so it just shows 20 topics for now. This is just a stopping point for tonight.

I'm not sure how you got an error. I can't reproduce it.

Unfortunately, my logging service wasn't logging errors just then (had to upgrade my account), so I can't investigate the cause.

@Ellri Tag limit bumped from 5 to 7.

Test out roleplayerguild.com/roleplays.

I need to add some more tags from the suggestions list.

Mahz's Dev Journal

I've started experimenting with a merged roleplayerguild.com/roleplays view that lets you filter roleplays by tags and sort them by either the latest post or roleplay creation.



It's missing some stuff like pagination and filter options (like join-status).

Also, interest checks will eventually get the same treatment.

@Jerkchicken Various measures have already been taken over the last couple weeks I've been improving the Guild.

For example, nuked spam topics are far less likely to show up on the homepage and sidebar. And new users are submitted to the moderator Discord channel for review.

There's more work to be done, but it's getting better every week.

@NuttsnBolts Yeah, the Guild has some confusing and ugly error pages if you're logged out that I need to fix.

I'll make improvements to the ghost / friendslist intersection, but right now I'm trying to release a /search overhaul.

For the few people that read my dev journal: Do yall have any examples of the most frequent searches you do or would do if the Guild supported it?

I'm also working on a simple tag search.

@JBRam2002 Yeah, I'll need to improve it so that you can't trivially de-ghost someone by having an active friends list.

@Lady Amalthea Good point, someone else made this recommendation on Discord as well.

For example, if someone gets banned for harassing you, it's kinda lame that they can continue to show up on your profile and in your topics. I'll have to fix this.

Mahz's Dev Journal

I think I'm done for the day.

The next features I want to focus on:

1. Overhauling the search system
2. Email notifications

Hi!

@Starbrite Welcome!

The forum should be pretty straight-forward.

Update

The convos page has been upgraded to show you which folders and which convos have unread PMs.



It's hard to test things on my empty local server, so lemme know if something seems off.

@Vesuvius00

The friendships sidebar on the homepage shows your 10 most recently online friends, and then it plucks the ghosts out of those 10 and groups them together.

So am I right in thinking that all of your friends on the homepage sidebar have logged in within 12 hours? That would push some ghosts onto the "View All" list.

Lemme know if I'm wrong. Cuz then it's a bug.
