the []() syntax makes a link. but our markdown parsing doesn't (currently) allow xmpp:// links, so the link then gets removed leaving just the link text.

i have no interest in making a reddit clone. also, all moderation on this site is done by the main site admins, not by forum bureaucrats.

ubq323 (edited ) #811

there are already threads and forums filled with things apioforum cannot do yet, so this one will not hurt anything

this thread shall stand as a testament to my lack of motivation unless and until i ever implement these things

  • web hooks
  • filter by tag
  • manage tags in forum
  • close polls
  • view voters on polls
  • wiki
  • search permissions not bees (we do not actually need this but it is still annoying)

this is due to the slightly odd way "last activity" works throughout apioforum. in some places it's stored as a separate column and updated whenever that thing is updated, and in some places it's not stored and is instead calculated when needed. in general it is slightly a bit of a mess, and needs a bit of tidying anyway. this can then be fixed when that is done.

i agree this would be a lot better if this was fixed though

in its most basic form, needs to keep track of the most recent post each user has read in each thread, and display how many unread posts there are in a given thread.

for usability there could be an option to subscribe or unsubscribe from a given thread, "mark as unread" back to a given point, mute threads or forums etc. maybe there could be a "notifications" page that shows you all unread posts on threads you are subscribed to.

this needs to also support being notified of new threads somehow.

currently "sort threads by" dropdown exists and works, but it looks very ugly (css needed!). should be small and float to the right, probably.

implementation of the rest should not be too hard in itself, the ui is probably the more difficult thing about this.

ubq323 #575

add "sort threads by" and options to filter threads by tag to the view threads page.

"sort threads by" has options "last activity (newest first)", "last activity (oldest first)", "created (newest first)", "created (oldest first)". forums can also specify have a default sort order for threads in that forum.

not sure how much control the "filter by tag" part needs. a simple "show threads with this one tag and not threads that don't have this tag" (only one tag at a time) would meet most use cases, i think. if not, a more complex "show all threads with any of these tags, don't show threads with any of these tags, don't care about other tags" system (or indeed, arbitrary boolean expressions) could be implemented, though the ui would be trickier and the advantages of this are unclear.
