Community Thank you for your patience during our down-time

Hmmmm....

No no no! It should be...

Ok.... i was just bored is all.

Clearly the weeks of downtime was mandatory to release a minor software upgrade.

Seems to be much nicer though.

 

[Urthor]

Oh right, my buttons are HIDDEN. Like the evidence of Hilary's electoral fraud.

 

[Nifft Batuff]

After much hard work and pain, the site looks and behave like it did already before.
I think that, these days, if you obtain zero net progress, it is more than acceptable.

 

[aris]

Fuck progress.

Don't you want the progress bar to advance?

 

[Pegultagol]

Lookin' good, RPG Codex! Thanks to all who made it possible.

 

[Gregz]

Nice server crash this morning. Well, it seems to have improved performance anyway. Before the crash I could barely load the site or shoutbox, now it's fast and responsive.

 

[Rean]

I was typing a PM you niggers.

jcd has been gone a long time...

He did come back for a bit a couple years ago.

He didn't last very long though as he ended up getting butthurt again soon after.

Edit: last year and I also forgot all about this:
https://rpgcodex.net/forums/threads/friendly-advice-upgrade-your-forum-software.138390/

So did he hack forums again? Staff updated forums just as he wanted...

Bold is still bugged goddamnit

rpgcodex is strong and doesn't afraid of anything!

 

[Gregz]

Codex is lagging like shit again, next crash when?

 

[Wunderbar]

Looks like a memory leak.

I don't know if there is a thread for posting feedback, so I'm gonna post here instead.

One important feature missing from previous version is the option to hide forum sections... like, if I don't care about "VR Gaming", I can turn it hidden.

And probably a new one would be a option to also hide the "Latest profile posts" located in the bottom right of the site... people usually post images there and it can be annoying and/or NSFW.

The #top and #footer arrows in shoutbox aren't working correctly in brave (chrome). Instead of scrolling inside of chat they just move the whole page (like a default page scrollbar). It would be nice to have the following inside of shoutbox:

Page Up
Page Down
Recent

I.e. similar to discord paging controls.

They're working correctly, but I think they should be hidden on the main index and the chat page, as well as on the wide layout. And it's gone.

Page Up
Page Down
Recent

I have limited possibilities for writing addons at the moment, especially ones that depend on payware addon functionality (i.e. the siropu chat module).

 

[Corbin Dallas Multipass]

Firstly, I was never patient.

Second, everyone knows sequels are almost inevitable decline, yet now the codex will use XenForo 2? Sad... Sure the first one looks a little dated now but it had soul!

 

[youhomofo]

I want you to know that I was not patient. I was deeply upset and triggered by the Codex's absence.

I expect a full apology within 24 hours--which I will reject.

Shoutbox does not appear to "remember" text font colors.

 

[Wild Slop]

For perma text color use settings menu found here :

I cropped that screenshot here, this is the upper right corner of the shoutbox.

 

[Bigg Boss]

Now someone sticky that post to explain it to every person that asks about it from now on.

 

[Taluntain]

There's a sticky for such things in Site Feedback, post it there.

Scrolling inside of Shoutbox is a bit of a mess in Chrome:

1. Mouse wheel should only scroll the Shoutbox itself, not the entire frame.
2. Also, it would be really nice to have Page Up and Page Down functionality inside of shoutbox.
3. Also, it would be nice to have an option not to have Shoutbox autoscroll, so you can read exactly from where you left off when you last walked away.
4. Also, it would be nice to have a <Jump to Present> button like Discord has.

p.s. If users don't like an @ in front of tagged users, can you use an off-grey link color like Codex 1.0 had? Bold white just blends too easily with the text, it's hard to notice when quickly scanning the text, a tag should stand out visibly. Bold is OK, but it should not be Bold white, Bold grey would be better imo.

p.p.s. Codex 2.0 performance is still very choppy, needs a few optimization passes.

Just use the full page variant.

There are many reasons why this is undesirable. I usually don't want to see most of the garbage at the top (I scroll it down so it's off window), and I need to have multiple windows open at once for other tasks I do inside of my OS.
