DanceMore Forum

This thread is for listing ideas on how to improve the forum.

Ive felt like board index could be renamed to "home" for a quicker at a glance understanding.

Auto embed would be pretty cool for convenience sake, and then if you dont want something to embed you surround it in something like "[na][/na]"
I feel like usually people want pictures and videos ect to embed by default but i might be wrong.

The rainbow dancemore icon is clickable to go home, but parts of it are not clickable, for example the outer edges are clickable but the dead center of it is not.

Profile pictures are limited to 90 px and 6 kb, we need dat auto processing so the sake of the end user. Vero struggled to get her picture working, i had to help, which serves as a great example of why we need this.

ability to snip / printscreen and paste here? can we have site storage? what are we gonna do about data and file sizes

New forums: flow, artwork, events

LOL, nice find; that does indeed suck. I swore it was a link, it used to just be a dead no icon spot!

auto-embed like upload image? I think that's supported, I need to go look into the settings tho. I probably need auto-resize / auto-scale so the experience is good and not just "POST DENIED IMAGE TOO BIG". the classic community moderation feature as well is to gate anything dangerous like attachments behind a manually assigned user group or like a 10 post minimum so people can't just show up and start dropping gross images on your forums. I have to make some more Groups at some point...

JohnJohn also reported this. it's been raised to 80x80 up to 256x256 and I think 250kb. I also want auto-resize there too... might do 512x512 as well cause that's what a lot of my avatars are default scaled to; altho 256x256 isnt so bad if the page does it for me.

I also have a known issue where Forum Users have no real upgrade path to SSO Users. I see we already have Sidewize and Sidewize-1; so someone is gonna need an Account Merge and maybe an SSO login recovery assist

I was also daydreaming about potentially having "per category" themes/styles so Cam's Tibia server zone could be all Olde Timey and RPG wooden and leather.

we should have better image upload / resize, including attachments; the header/menu links should work too.

per forum theme is achievable probably....

nice, SSO finally worked the FIRST time i tried it when attempting to login.

rainbow icon seems to be working nicely too.

Digging the sub forums thats gonna really help organize things, and now we can go a little more wild with some ideas.

Vero was thinking the animation for the rainbow elements was a little distracting and i thought up the idea to disable animations within the user profile or something.

the rainbow elements was a little distracting

but I like it loud let me see if I can do it in user-profile; I already had to upgrade animations for multi-theme support. I'll see if "no animations" mode can make gifs not auto-play too ..?

THE llama?

I agree, i do like the animations.
I dont find them distracting.
User profile options though for minor configurations n shiz will be cool for the majority, though.
