Board Owner Support and Migration Requests Codexx Root 12/13/2020 (Sun) 05:27:09 Id: abfacc No. 1651
This thread is for Board Owners to get support for running their boards. How do I create a board? First, you should see if the board you want to create already exists. Some boards may be marked abandoned, in which case you can put in a board claim. If the board doesn't exist, you can create one yourself. Create an account or log-in by visiting the lightning bolt symbol next to the CSS dropdown at the top of the page. Once there, make sure you have a verified e-mail address. Then, you can scroll to the bottom of the page and find the board creation section. Enter the URI, name, and a description. After you fill out the captcha and submit, you'll have your very own board. How do I claim an existing board? A board will be marked abandoned if the Board Owner has not logged in for a few weeks. Sometimes, this indicates they've gone missing. If the BO cannot be reached then we will hand the board over to a willing replacement. We recommend sending an e-mail to the administration address of 8moeadmin@protonmail.com. Please include your username on the site and the board you are requesting. How do I create custom CSS? There is an upload field on the board settings page for custom CSS. Upload your file there. Custom board assets such as background images, mascots, icons, music, etc should be posted in the appropriate thread on >>>/res/. This board is for board assets only. This way, you don't need to clutter your board with a pinned asset, or worry an uploaded image will fall off the site. How do I create custom JavaScript? This feature is currently disabled. Soon, you'll be able to request custom JS be activated for your board. You can leave that request here. I am moving my board in from another website. How can I request a migration? We're happy to move or archive boards from other websites at the board owner's request. Please contact me directly at codexx@cock.li with the name of your board on this site, a link to the board on another site, and some kind of proof you are the board owner. Generally, a screenshot of your board management page or a capcoded post on the board to be imported is sufficient. Currently we offer imports for boards on Vichan and LynxChan websites. JSChan support will arrive in the near future. What rules do I need to enforce on my board? Just the global rules, which are minimal and mostly consist of deleting illegal content. If your board is marked as Safe for Work (SFW), you will need to spoiler any images that show genitalia, scat, guro, etc. Globals will only police global rules on your board. You're welcome to add more rules on top of this, but you and your volunteers are responsible for enforcing them. How do I label my board as "Safe For Work"? Leave a request in this thread for a board to be marked as such, or send us an e-mail from your verified address. Your board must be reasonably about SFW content, and NSFW content must be spoilered so it does not show on the front page or overboard. We may label boards SFW or NSFW at our own discretion based on the average content on the board. If you would like its designation changed specifically, then please notify us of your preference. Why was captcha enabled on my board? If you set an automated captcha threshold in board settings, then captchas will be enabled on your board once a set number of posts/threads per hour limit is hit. The setting will not undo itself; you need to manually turn the captcha back off again each time. Still, we recommend setting a PPH captcha limit a bit above your usual peak PPH; this helps limit spam attacks. What if my question wasn't answered here? Reply with your question and we will try to answer as quickly as possible.
Uids are showing even though I have turned the option off. Please fix.
>>2092 Speaking about global limit, can BO have option to cap image limit in their board? >>2094 yeah I think loading 700 pics isn't doable for people viewing from potato device. I want to bring my board limit to half of it.

Do your posters have basic courtesy of asking if they allowed to post sensitive content before they post it? I know Warning sign disuade new posters but on other hand people like pic related exist
>>9290 >image limit This can be set per-post with the "Maximum number of files per post" option. You can reduce the number of posts in a thread by setting "bump limit". Additionally, there is the [Last] button on posts, which just loads the latest 50. This helps a lot for users on toasters trying to click extra-large threads.
>>4805 >Both are planned features for Lynxchan 2.8 ( Still not seeing it nor mentioned in >>5978 or >>9110 Deleting user's file, either via thread/Moderate Thread option or ban droplist only show deletion by IP/bypass. Now that I do it, it does delete post from that bypass,which date back to last week. I thought bypass only last for 1 day? whole board post deletion, not just from thread. Thankfully only from that bypass. And different poster can’t share same exact bypass right? I thought I accidentally deleted a regular user’s post but consider 1 week worth of post get deleted, he probably is the offender, just changing identity fuck this is getting interesting
Check the emails for 8moeadmin@protonmail.com if you would be so kind, lainfag.
>>9386 Learn to speak English, José.
>lainfag care about the road he step in to get to other side
How do i delete board? I click the "delete board" button, but it only says i am not allowed
>>9530 You can't, the function was removed after some niggers abuse it to break havoc. Ask Codexx directly either IRC, Matrix or Email, so he can delete your boards.
I think the system overestimate if I unlink multiple post at once. I click to mass unlink 5 posts and the notice tell me "successfully trash 98 something something"
>>1651 >If the BO cannot be reached then we will hand the board over to a willing replacement. How long is the grace period for the site administration to attempt to contact an AWOL BO after a board claim is made? I don't see a timeframe listed here or in the moderation manual where claims are mentioned. I sent an email claiming an abandoned board two weeks ago.
Please extend Trashbin retaining period to 2 days, things get removed too fast
Why does #rs stick with you in other threads after you post with it once? The only way I can get rid of it is clearing my browser. It's annoying going into the account page to check and uncheck your role signature, but it's even more annoying dealing with the side effects of using #rs even once, so #rs being the more quick and convenient way isn't really true and it's ultimately a pointless function.
>>9658 It's because of shitty browsers. Hopefully in the future there will just be a checkbox by the name field instead, especially for boards that have no name field.
Can a board volunteer ask to move a thread like a BO can?
Hi, sorry if I'm being too impatient but do the admins check their emails anymore? I sent an email a few days ago about how email verification seems to be broken but got nothing.
>>9327 >Last] button >50 I'm grateful it only display less than that. I don't know why i thought it only display 15. I wish it only display 15 or so. >>9670 I got impatient the first time i made a board because it was close to end year so last year i email them in advance.I got my response within 1 month
this no longer works: #dynamicAnnouncement { display: none; } plz help
>>9670 >>9716 The e-mail verification being a bit slower has been on me. I've been busier than usual and haven't been checking my inbox as often. I will rework the verification process over the holidays to help speed things up. >>9731 Can you explain what you expect it to do, and what it no longer does? >>9659 Got Stephen to implement this for the next LynxChan release. >>9657 It is two days, but I think it works by running in batches, so it's possible that posts get clipped sooner than that. I'll talk about extending it to three days. On larger boards, the trash bin can get excessive very quickly if it doesn't empty regularly, so I'd be hesitant to extend it any further than that. >>9554 Can you give me some steps to reproduce? You're trying to unlink images? >>9530 We stopped allowing deletions because 9/10 times it was only used maliciously. There are almost always users who want to keep the board going, so deletion just scatters people instead of allowing a clean hand-off. If you really want a board deleted, you can reach out to us, but at this point I think it's best for closed boards to simply be locked, which we can also provide.
>>9731 Try this: <font-size: 0px; <opacity: 0;
I'm trying to straighten out a CSS that is not formatted for lynxchan. Can someone tell me what in the fuck this is suppose to do? /*new design*/ .description { background: rgb(255, 255, 238) none repeat scroll 0% 0% !important; } #velocious_main li:nth-child(odd) { background:#ede2d4 !important; } #recent_main li:nth-child(odd) { background:#ede2d4 !important; } #tempestuous_main li:nth-child(odd) { background:#ede2d4 !important; } #recentboards_main li:nth-child(odd) { background:#ede2d4 !important; } #activeboards_main li:nth-child(odd) { background:#ede2d4 !important; } .board-list #search-form{ background: #ffffee!important; } /*28/09/2017*/ div.ban { background: rgb(255, 255, 238) none repeat scroll 0% 0% !important; color:#800 !important; } #boardlist li:nth-child(odd) { background:#ede2d4 !important; } table#banners_list tbody tr:nth-of-type( odd ) { background-color: #ede2d4; } .boardHeader p, #overboardId { font-family: Mountains of Christmas; font-size: 300%; } fieldset legend { font-weight: bold; font-family: Mountains of Christmas; font-size: 200%; color: #7F0000; padding: 4px; width: 100%; }
>>9779 Sets the background color of odd-numbered table rows, sets a few other background colors and some font related properties. I'm pretty sure the blocks with velocious_main, tempestuous_main and so on are for the various tables at the old 8chan front page.
How can I restrict creating new threads on a board? I want to temporarily prevent users from making new threads but still let them post in existing threads.
>>10000 This option doesn't exist. You can lock the board, which prevents all posts, but that would prevent posting in existing threads. There is a setting to disable thread creation for an hour after N posts are made, but I believe setting this to 0 just means "unlimited". You could set it to 1 to throttle new thread creation and then manually delete any that are made.
>>10000 Seconding this feature request. Also checked.
I just started >>>/blueslop/ as a SFW alternative to degen and AI porn boards, I'd like it flagged as a SFW board, please.
>>11692 We already have >>>/ais/ for that
>>11809 >>>/ais/ isn't a SFW board though.
Can I mark a board as abandoned to allow anybody to claim it?
>>13970 Just stop logging and it will eventually get marked as claimable.
can i claim >>>/mspa/? i lost the account that owned that board

>>1651 Requesting the enabling of uploading a custom Javascript for my board >>>/rwby/ Thanks.
Is it possible to unlink all files from a post at once? The way I see it i have to unlink image one by one. During 4chan immigration someone doesn't read rules and attach porn in his post.
>>14936 Me again. My user calling me out for it so now I start working. Bug report. Right click on Unlink file within thread moderation view prompts me into login page. Expected result: New tab saying that the files are removed appear
This is pissing me off. I can't figure out how to size the post content to stay inside the inner box shadow. div.innerOP { position: relative; font-family: Win95; font-size: 90%; box-sizing: border-box; box-shadow: 0 0 0 10px lightgray inset; border: 2px outset white; border-radius: 1px; background-image: url(/.media/5e195fd9186e7f8204542fcf28f1715d25ec7f9bce52dbf4c104a8ec58fa04ff.gif), url(/.media/157308ec88639e5c219d367af36d0f10892caad509555614ee798f35abd4422e.png), linear-gradient(rgba(0,94,215), rgba(0,165,149)); background-repeat: no-repeat, repeat, no-repeat; background-position: 100% 99%, left top, right bottom; background-size: 8vmin, auto, contain; } div.innerOP::after { content: ""; position: absolute; top:0; bottom: 0; left: 0; right: 0; background : linear-gradient(rgba(0,94,215), rgba(0,165,149));; border-radius: 1px; opacity: 0.9; z-index: -1; } @font-face { font-family: Win95; src: url(/.media/9e1ad53708307b2b68e06d43799b2267f6aec620dda972bc62753ad16ba50f2b); }
