@Kike
 
A u/ style mention doesn't notify the target user, but an @ one does.

Do it. The only way to grow the site is to promote it. Crossposting helps too.

I've discovered the cause of this. The character limit for a title when saving a post is supposed to be 256 (which I believe is more than enough), but they are truncated to half of that limit on submission.
 
The fix will be applied in the next update.

I switched to a DDOS-protected IP address. That's why the site was down to some users whose DNS providers had not yet updated their cache.

Ok, so the edits **do** in fact actually work, you just have to refresh the page to make it appear.

That would be very much appreciated. I can't do it myself because I don't use talk.lol
 
It would be nice to get more people on board instead of just you, @BeefyBelisarius and @Kike. Thanks for sticking with it btw.

Is there any way to edit a title? by BeefyBelisarius

admin
3 years ago 1 point (+1 / -0 )
No. The following are permanent and can't be modified short of a direct database edit:
 
* Post titles
 
* Post links
 
* Post attachments (image uploads)
 
* Usernames
 
* Board names
 
* Chatroom names

This site, like most other "reddit alternatives" uses the Markdown syntax for text formatting. I have included a link to a Markdown guide website on all text input boxes (the Syntax button).
 
To mention a user: @Kike
 
No formatting for board links such as b/ConsumeProduct yet, but that's coming soon.

Hmm, can you screenshot what you are seeing? For me on mobile the image ends right at the edge of the screen, as intended.
 
Btw you ping with @, like on voat.

For now you are limited to a [short list of allowed sites](https://arete.network/resources/domain_whitelist.txt), but feel free to suggest any other safe sites that could be whitelisted.

You can use images actually!
 
Just add an ! before a standard markdown link. You are limited to a selection of whitested sites (can be seen in your settings) for security reasons. Feel free to suggest any additional ones.

Yeah. Votes may also be public, but you can easily bypass any automated tracking of alts. There's no way around that. All I log is an IP hash and a random id stored in a cookie.

There are no instances where data is verified clientside only. For low traffic forms if it's usually only server side and the client receives an error message.

This is entirely my own work. Not based on any other codebase.

I could probably manually change it in the db later and rename the storage directories. It would necessitate a server restart though.

Wait what, I just saw that you have a space in the name. That shouldn't be a thing. I could swear I added validation to the board creation form, but I guess not lol

Anyway to create user flairs? by INeedAPinochet

No such feature yet. A CSS trick might help though, that's how we do in on consumeproduct.win which also doesn't support them:
  
    a.authorName[href="/u/INeedAPinochet/"]::after {
        border: 1px solid #b6b6a9;
        background-color: #f2f2ec;
        color: black;
        padding-left: 5px;
        padding-right: 5px;
        text-decoration: none;
        font-size: 12px;
        display: inline-block;
        font-weight: normal;
        content: "A flair";
    }

1. ~~A tall sidebar breaks the footer. Noticable on ConsumeProduct.~~ Fixed
            
2. ~~Access logs were bugged and can't be effectively disabled by admins for existing accounts. [Please check whether you are affected and turn them off](https://arete.network/accesslogs/me/). For privacy reasons these should always be opt-in.~~ Fixed
            
3. Thumbnail generation for images sometimes causes an internal server error, but the post still goes through. (may have already been unintentionally fixed, haven't noticed any more errors in the logs)
           
4. ~~Unable to vote from the notifications dropdown. Vote arrows did show up in development.~~ Fixed
          
5. ~~Commenting on your own post generates a notification~~ Fixed
            
6. ~~The colored arrow indicator for a comment voted on cascades to all visible child comments.~~ Fixed
      
7. ~~Blank comment after edit (just a visual bug, it does actually save properly)~~ Fixed
     
8. ~~Marking modmail as read causes your personal inbox's unread count to go into the negatives until server restart~~ Fixed
  
9. ~~Incorrect post title length limit~~ Fixed
            
Please report any if you notice them.

It's configurable by the board owner whether to make votes public.
