Better, than the test site, blander than the past.

@Twiglard would it be possible to make the media function accept twitter frontend URLs?
for example,
https://nitter.net/ChrisAvellone/status/1582058085517910023
so just detect if it ends in a /status/[0-9]{20,} and rewrite it to a twitter.com URL?

I think once upon a time nitter supported embedding. But even if it does now, it's a bad idea due to the rate limiting. Unless you want to set up a large caching instance specifically for people's embeds.

If we're writing plugins for xenforo then the more useful thing is slurping the tweet at the time of posting and embedding it directly in the post's text where the embed code was. Like substack does with shitter links.

What I'm doing personally with twitter.com, twimg, facebook and fbcdn is disable their cookie and site data permissions. But Firefox and Chrome should now have per-site containers for third-party cookies dependent upon the first-party domain, out of the box.

I added [sup] and [sub] tags for superscript and subscript. note the use of the [plain] tag to output these two tags literally without invoking them.

it's there a way to implement when someone makes a poll vote to organize by # of votes from top to botton after voting? Would be easier to keep track of who's or what is winning.

Can you change the backend so adverts are querried and shown first. I hate when im on mobile, the website loads, i click a topic and different topic is loaded/clicked because adverts load up and push the topic list down.

 

[Taluntain]

That's on the to-do to fix at some point, but it's not an issue of load order because the ads keep rotating and the layout shift happens on every rotation. The height of the ad spots needs to be set to a fixed height to prevent this from happening.

 

[A horse of course]

Ads?

I disabled the search suggestion popup. Does anyone actually prefer having it enabled?

It can be useful at rare occasions, bot more often than not, it feels like an annoyance.

Was there a change made to the site recently? Since, I think Monday, the quick reply box you type in has just been gone for me. Just looks like a blank spot where it should be. Also, I noticed that when I click the “Rate” button it takes me to a whole other screen with the Bro Fist as the only option.

Had to sign in on something other than my old shitty iPad to make this post.

A button to remove all ignores would be a convenient feature on the "Ignoring" User page. I thought the new year was a good point to clean my list and did it manually but a button to remove all ignores at once would have been very welcome.

 

[GhostCow]

I've suggested before that everyone's ignore lists should get cleared once a year automatically. Either on Christmas or on new year's day. Is that even possible though? Seems like it would be an easy script to make.

Why though?, I'm content with mine

Because it would cause massive amounts of butthurt. It would probably lower the amount of ignoring going on overall by a lot too. Lots of people here get butthurt and put someone on ignore then forget about it, even if it's someone who's normally a good poster. Ignore lists are for butthurt cucks.

You don't seem like a good poster so I don't know why you're so butthurt about it.

Twiglard could you improve how quoted images, that are hosted by the forum itself, appear on mobile?

This comment looks this way, on mobile. Clicking the link takes you to a new tab just with the image displayed. Ideally, it just displays correctly in the quote like a normal hotlinked image.

It's an XF2 performance optimization. Some things need to be taken into account when undoing it such as not displaying GD images outside of GD.

Generally the problem with images and quotes is that people don't trim them, not the opposite. So this would probably make the forum experience worse 75% of the time when viewing quotes of attached images.

Xenforo is shit, an hideous overbloated mess tanking up RAM like candy.
Back then, websites in basic HTML, no JS and bit of CSS did the job and took less than 1MB of RAM while doing the same basic functionalities.

Are you sure what I’m suggesting would make such a drastic difference? Image and media embeds all display in quotes already, whether mobile or not. It’s just this one class of images, those uploaded directly to the forum, that behave like my image above. I have trouble understanding how switching them from “view attachment” to inline render would require the undoing of a host of foundational performance optimizations resulting in 75% worse performance of the forum as a whole.

It sounds a bit like saying changing the oil in my car caused the US to invade Iraq.

I'll install an addon if you have one.

What’s the technical name for the feature by which we attach image files to posts?
