Features & Improvements Suggestion Box

[Quin]

Thanks Daisy

So if I now went [mention]Spacedaisy[/mention] not at the top of the post, it doesn't work? The drop down showed up, so I guess we'll see if you get the notification.

[Spacedaisy]

Hey, you got it to work [mention]Quin[/mention]! I guess the mention works anywhere in the post after all, that's great!

[Golden]

[mention]Spacedaisy[/mention] good work!

[JaggedJimmyJay]

Spacedaisy on fiyah. She on fiyah. She burnin.

[Sloonei]

I like this.

[Jackofhearts2005]

Love it.


Got a new feature request.

There's an "Isolate Posts by X" under everyone's avatar on desktop but not on mobile. It would be super helpful to have that on mobile, too.

[Spacedaisy]

Well crap. We are having a variety of issues between the desktop and mobile view it seems. I'll look into this for you guys. It may take a bit though because I assume the mobile has its own coding to write... thanks for your patience.

[mention]juliets[/mention] [mention]Dragon D. Luffy[/mention] [mention]Jackofhearts2005[/mention]

I will let you know what I find or when I fix it.

[Dragon D. Luffy]

Thanks for the good work, Daisy!

[juliets]

Thank you [mention]Spacedaisy[/mention] . I like this feature.

The issue with alignment in the mobile view has been fixed, as has the issue with the online flag covering up a button. All it took was reinstalling the style, ensuring I was using the most recent version of the style released. Problem solved. Sorry guys. Now I am going to reinstall the ISO function.

[Quin]

Are votes now ordered correctly?

[Spacedaisy]

No, that is an unrelated issue that I haven't got an answer to yet.

[Spacedaisy]

Love it.

I somehow overlooked this request. Interesting catch. I'll see if perhaps there is a separate file that needs edited to include this... it might take some time though since I don't know much about coding. I'll let you know when I have some kind of answer though.

[Quin]

No, it might be fixed. Just looking off the sign-up thread for G-Man's game, it looks like the votes are more or less in order of posting. Some people just didn't post so it could do with a proper test, me thinks.

[Long Con]

I think that the Mafia forum should be above the Business Front forum. It's by far the more frequently posted-in forum, so making it closer to the top of the page, and more convenient, makes sense.

Done!

Also [mention]Marmot[/mention] fixed the color issue for NP blue as you requested.

[Long Con]

Thank you!!

[Marmot]

How is the new np blue?

[Long Con]

Um, it's awesome!

[nutella]

Any updates on vote order? I miss it

[Spacedaisy]

Not yet, no.

[Marmot]

Any updates on vote order? I miss it

We could revert back to the old voting.

I'll look into it some more though. I can't stand the current status.

[Spacedaisy]

The old voting?

[Marmot]

The old voting?

Yes.

Do you know if the vote disordering is a side-effect of the poll extension we added, or did it come from the site-wide update we did?

[Spacedaisy]

It's from the update. The previous ability to see the order votes were placed in we believe was custom coding written by LT which was deleted when we did the update. I can find no such extension anywhere, so adding it will require me learning how to code it myself. That's the plan but I'm not there yet, sorry. It's not a matter plugging a mod in unfortunately. Otherwise I would have done it by now.

Good to know.

Alrighty then, I'll try to set a little time aside to give it a go.

[nutella]

Looks like the posts-per-page just changed from 40 to 50 (and still cannot be changed via UCP)

[lapluie]

Is there a feature to show all of the posts youve made in different threads? Soemtimes I dont rememebr what games I signed up for.

[nutella]

Yeah if you click on your post count under your name it shows all of your posts on the forum

And btw the one you're confused about is probably because it was edited lol, it was originally Barney-themed and jay changed it

[lapluie]

oh woah, game changer. thanks a lot puddin!

[S~V~S]

Is there any way we could bring back the "PM" button? It was in the upper right corner with the quote button and such. It makes it way easier to PM the host about a specific thing, or the facilitator. You just hit it, added a recipient and way you went.

Now you have to quote, cut text, go to PMs, paste etc.

Unless it is somewhere else in the post and I feel silly ha ha

[Spacedaisy]

I think that it's not present in the mobile view. In the desktop view it's under the avatar and username.

[S~V~S]

Awesome! I did not realize that quoted, thank you so much!

[Spacedaisy]

Awesome! I did not realize that quoted, thank you so much!

Always glad to be of service to you my friend!

[Long Con]

Ok then, how's about a multi-quote button in each post? Those rule.

[Spacedaisy]

I've searched high low, there does not appear to be an existing mid forthat at the moment. It will be top of the wish list once I learn how to code this stuff myself.

[dunya]

[mention]Marmot [/mention], do you think we can get the mention button added when we do Full Editor & Preview where they do the [ mention ] [ / mention ] tags cos sometimes on mobile I have to type it all out (like 95 percent of the time)

[Marmot]

@Marmot , do you think we can get the mention button added when we do Full Editor & Preview where they do the [ mention ] [ / mention ] tags cos sometimes on mobile I have to type it all out (like 95 percent of the time)

Fortunately it already exists, but I've added it to the posting page now.

How about the QuickReply Reloaded feature?

https://boardtools.ru/QuickReply/

I think it's the closest thing to the multiquote that phpBB offers. I especially like the Quicknote feature.

You are a king.

Soneji voters: Juliets, Lunalee, timmer, Jackofhearts2005, JaggedJimmyJay
I'll ISO them later.

Who's the one leading the vote before it went to Soneji?

[mention]JaggedJimmyJay[/mention]
[mention]juliets[/mention]
Can we steal Mafia Universe’s vote tracking code? It would be so nice to be able to answer questions like this. Not only does it track in thread votes, it keeps a list of all votes that looks like

Sloonei votes Jack ^1
Nutella votes Jack ^2
Jay votes Jack ^3
Nutella unvotes Jack v2
Nutella votes Jay ^1

And then you can click into any of these votes and it will show you the vote count at the time that vote was placed. All votes are shown in order they were placed left to right and by who has the most votes up to down. All votes within the counts are also hyperlinked to the posts where those votes were made so you can see the context.

They might not let us have it cause automod is like the pride and joy of MU but I think it’s worth asking. Polls are way better than manual vote counts (never doing that again after FE) but automod is another giant leap in the right direction. Plus, no having to make a polls thread.

Also, I’ve been doing a lot of coding at work lately and I’d love a chance to look at the backend of what we have here sometime esp in regards to polls.

[JaggedJimmyJay]

Thanks for the suggestions, [mention]Jackofhearts2005[/mention]. It's something that'll have to be discussed, but improvements to vote tracking would definitely be ideal. It must be possible, because the feature was here prior to the big update. It's just a matter of figuring out the intricacies. The admin team will get back with you soon otherwise and see about things.

This is a difficulty that some users have had with the mobile site. I'm sorry it's getting you; I know it can be irritating. It's something we're always trying to work out. The mobile angle presents a unique set of challenges.

...but it's both on mobile and PC for me

Well that's no fun!

Do you primarily log in at the top right portion of the page, or near the bottom?

[JaggedJimmyJay]

Meant to quote the other post, but you know.

[poutanko]

At the top in both mobile and PC, does it have an effect?
took me 2-3 times to make a post here

I'm uncertain, but it might be worth experimenting. Could you try logging in at the bottom next time and see if it lasts longer?

Just tried it, we'll see if it works. The bottom one only exists in main page tho
