I suppose it's not like there's much else to do on this site at the moment lol

once we have subforums we could create a subforum for random spam things, and thereby confine such threads to one place

there will be a system where you can follow threads, soonish. following users could also be done but I'm not sure if it's a good idea.

twoment

you can do this (^^this^^), which renders as an underline (at least for me), but uses an <ins> tag, which semantically is for text that has been inserted (ie the opposite of <del>, which is for text that has been deleted). i couldn't see any existing markdown extensions that added actual underline

another update (since this is a site updates thread now apparently): there is a "view post source" button on every post now.

updatey update: <hr> is now available. you can put three *s or _s on a line of their own to deploy one.

thus:

the the the 
***
bees apioform

becomes

the the the

bees apioform

update: you can now do ~subscript~ and ^superscript^

you need to escape spaces within the sub- or superscript with backslashes though

^sup _sub

<details> and <summary> have been enabled. you can use the html tags themselves, or use this markdown syntax

??? "summary goes here"
    indented stuff here will be in the details thing

    - you can
    - do formatting
    - in here too

will produce

<sup> and <sub> have been enabled. currently there is no markdown syntax for these, give me a few moments

probably never. maybe we could special-case johnvertisements though

<pulsate> is also available for purposes.

colour tags are now supported. all css colours are available, for foreground and background.

use <colour> for foreground colours. use<markcolour> for background colours.

it seems that if you delete all posts in a thread, then the thread doesn't appear on the listing page. how interesting

css/presentation todo:

• tidy up all the old grid things since we don't need them any more.
  • remove all obsolete or unused css from style.css and generally organise it a bit
• add "number of replies" field back to thread listing

(posting this here now because it's in my head but i have to go and do something else right now)

db todo:

• use rcte for forum parent breadcrumbs
• create views for most recent activity (per forum and for subforums), then simplify the big query for viewing a forum

this could occur. what tags would you like to see specifically? what kinds of animations?

and doesn't this count as an animation anyway

this is a test test

todo item: apionet integration and discord webhook support

ah yes

this is being sent from the lynx browser

<marquee> now works

wow!

A spectre is haunting Europe - the

once subforums exist all existing threads will be sent into one of the subforums. i haven't decided what kind of subforum that should be yet. deleting everything would be unfortunate, perhaps

sqlite is slightly annoying about what kinds of columns you are allowed to add to tables after already creating them. specifically i want to have the forum column on the threads table be NOT NULL DEFAULT 1 REFERENCES forums(id) but when adding columns with ALTER TABLE the default has to be NULL if the column includes a foreign key. it would therefore be slightly easier if i could delete all threads and create a new threads table.

however i can still just create a new threads table, with the column i want, and then copy all the existing rows into it, and that can all be done in pure sql so it will even still work with our exisitng migration thingy. so you're right this isn't even much of a big deal at all.

hmm there was something else involving moderators that i think would make this a bit more difficult but i have forgotten what that was about now. i'm sure i can figure out a way around it. and anyway, the worst case is that i have to manually run a python script on the server or something. there is only one deployed instance so this isn't that hard.

SO true
