I'm having a bit of problem reposting these 3 pictures https://x.com/sister_ram/status/1966326038146740633 I can post each one fine, but if I do all 3 at the same time I get first picrel when I click reply, even though they do not exceed files size limit. And once that happens, I cannot post anything unless I refresh (same error every time, I think?). I'm on Floorp with uBO and the scripts and scripts manager in 2nd picrel, and I have tried disabling each script. Also what's up with the captcha (3rd picrel)? The timer's not up and I don't think I entered it incorrectly as you can see. It's not the first time I've encountered this and I'd have to reload it for it to work whenever I open a new 8chan tab
>>15954 addendum: I have tried hard refresh, and also > I'd have to reload it for it to work whenever I open a new 8chan tab on boards that require captcha, and sometimes on the same tab that's been opened and posted on.
>>15954 the images are because you're trying to copy and paste the image itself and the site freaks out when you overwrite the clipboard haven't looked into a good way to handle that yet, so download them if you're going to multipost the captcha is just batshit, who the fuck knows there's something jank in the handling that causes the first one to go full retard so you're better off reloading it before even trying it's probably some stupid assumption in the front end haven't looked at it yet, codexx might have glanced at it a time or two
>>15956 I see. Will do next time. Thanks.
>>15928 It is agnostic if you link the URI instead of the full URL.
a suggestion by someone to shy to just post it here >>>/v/1748125
generally i think the mod log needs a touch up. it needs more hyperlinks. the category selection in the report system still seems useless too. was it meant for BOs who wanted report templates or something?
>>15962 the only actual function of categories is so you can filter reports by them theoretically they could be used as shorthand for rules but get this >they're site-wide useless fucking feature the report logs in general are a fucking nightmare and just about need entirely overhauled, but that probably also means breathing some sanity into moderator actions in general
>>15963 i was considering learning some JS just so we can at least look at what kind of posts mods close reports on easily. shouldn't be TOO hard, i think?
>>15964 llms are decent at js, good way to get started for (const desc of document.getElementsByClassName("labelDescription")) { const linked = desc.textContent.replace( /(?<=post )(\d+)(?= on thread (\d+) on board \/(\w+)\/)/, (_, post, thread, board) => `<a href="/${board}/res/${thread}.html#${post}">${post}</a>`, ); if (linked) desc.innerHTML = linked; }
>>15965 I'm half asleep, that conditional's pointless it always sets, which is fine for one off golf for (const desc of document.getElementsByClassName("labelDescription")) desc.innerHTML = desc.textContent.replace( /(?<=post )(\d+)(?= on thread (\d+) on board \/(\w+)\/)/, (_, post, thread, board) => `<a href="/${board}/res/${thread}.html#${post}">${post}</a>`, ); but to avoid it if the logs are hueg and it's a bottleneck for (const desc of document.getElementsByClassName("labelDescription")) { const match = desc.textContent.match( /(.*?post )(\d+)( on thread (\d+) on board \/(\w+)\/.*)/, ); if (match) desc.innerHTML = `${match[1]}<a href="/${match[5]}/res/${match[4]}.html#${match[2]}">${match[2]}</a>${match[3]}`; }
How do you change the site bypass spinner in the css? The black one can conflict with certain themes. It's not critical of course but it'd still be nice to be able to coordinate it correctly.
>>15967 There doesn't seem to be a way to change it to where you can replace the spinner with something else. Since it's hard to get the validation window to stay open while using the inspector tool, I've pasted the HTML & CSS paths while it was doing it's thing that one time I had it. HTML <img src="/.static/spinner_infinity.svg" style="background-color: transparent; width: 300px; height: 100px;"> CSS path body div.modalPanel div.modalInnerPanel form.modalForm img
>>15968 img[src="/.static/spinner_infinity.svg"] { filter: invert(100%) sepia(100%) saturate(1000%) brightness(50%) hue-rotate(120deg); } have to crank the saturation or contrast to the moon to get a decent color out of it ideally it would be in the html properly so you can just style the components there's only one or two themes it's bad on and imo they're unusable without a lot of custom fuckery anyway
>>>/fringe/1509 What is the site admin stance on material such as the Tarrant shooting vid? We had a discussion about this on /fringe/ where some posters wanted to post it because of free speech, while others just wanted such posting banned because it's off-topic, and may harm the site. If this is important enough, feel free to leave a comment in the fringe meta thread linked above.

>>15969 Here's some more colors made. In order to preview these changes since the bypass validation window doesn't stay open, you must overwrite the captcha source in the HTML editor to <img src="/.static/spinner_infinity.svg" style="background-color: transparent; width: 300px; height: 100px;"> 🔴 Red img[src="/.static/spinner_infinity.svg"] { filter: invert(16%) sepia(95%) saturate(7491%) brightness(81%) hue-rotate(-5deg); } 🩷 Pink img[src="/.static/spinner_infinity.svg"] { filter: invert(22%) sepia(75%) saturate(3700%) brightness(575%) hue-rotate(-75deg); } 🟠 Orange img[src="/.static/spinner_infinity.svg"] { filter: invert(22%) sepia(75%) saturate(3700%) brightness(300%) hue-rotate(-15deg); } 🟡 Yellow img[src="/.static/spinner_infinity.svg"] { filter: invert(84%) sepia(27%) saturate(600%) brightness(104%) hue-rotate(0deg); } 🟢 Green img[src="/.static/spinner_infinity.svg"] { filter: invert(52%) sepia(77%) saturate(965%) brightness(100%) hue-rotate(76deg); } 🟩 Vivian's Green Ribbon img[src="/.static/spinner_infinity.svg"] { filter: invert(48%) sepia(94%) saturate(750%) brightness(120%) hue-rotate(31deg); } 🔵 Blue img[src="/.static/spinner_infinity.svg"] { filter: invert(19%) sepia(94%) saturate(2965%) brightness(100%) hue-rotate(196deg); } 🟣 Purple img[src="/.static/spinner_infinity.svg"] { filter: invert(20%) sepia(60%) saturate(2000%) brightness(100%) hue-rotate(260deg); } ⚪ White img[src="/.static/spinner_infinity.svg"] { filter: invert(100%) sepia(0%) saturate(0%) brightness(200%); } 🟤 Brown img[src="/.static/spinner_infinity.svg"] { filter: invert(40%) sepia(80%) saturate(2000%) brightness(70%) hue-rotate(20deg); }

I found that &apos; website bug again, but this time it appeared when I hovered over a crossthread link & it showed a preview of another thread. We used to see this happen a lot where an apostrophe in a subject of the thread would turn into &apos; & I thought it was stamped out, but here it is again. There was another character replaced as well, but I can't recall what it was & I don't have a screenshot of the last time this was happening. [I also just got a connection failed error so this might double-post]

>>5423 Minor QoL request but a hover timestamp on posts would be nice for people like me who are too lazy to do the math and want to see how many hours/days old a post is at a quick glance.
>>15978 I do .relativeTime { display: inline-block; max-width: 0px; max-height: 1.1em; overflow: hidden; padding: 0px 0px 0px calc(8ch + 2px); margin-left: -8ch; } .relativeTime:hover { max-width: none; } with relative times on to get a similar effect hovering over the actual time, but yeah, I want to mainline something like it that stupid calculation function runs every few minutes and hits every post on the page regardless of whether they're even in the viewport

So I've decided to check up on /v/ after my public blowup. And oh look, the vols on that board, despite accusing me of being a liar and bad actor, <still are deleting perfectly good posts of substance <have completely dropped enforcing the rule against Foolzposting and just allow it now, converting the board into a cuckchan shelter as I've predicted with the smell of shit that comes with it <allow trannyjaks on the front page now <delete any post calling out their bullcrap <have tore the board apart whenever somebody raises a question thinking they're me, because obviously I am the only person to ever have had a criticism and I must be a boogeyman to scapegoat for their housefly moderation Even the cuckchan rapefugees from /vg/ call them out. Sad to see what I suspected come to fruition. Pattern that I'm all too familiar with, some low-functioning sociopaths get control and drive out the natives, killing the community slowly with their cancer. Ironic that I help /bag/ and one of them pays my kindness this way in classic farmer and viper. Well, sleepy really likes the threads I've started, they've complained that posters haven't been making them.
ok but who asked LOL
>>15981 So you came back and are still capping shitposts from the usual suspects which get deleted, still lying about vols when the deletion jew is always behind it, bragging about helping a general that never needed his help, and brags about his posts on a dead website?

Dunno if this is supposed to be a feature or a bug but closing the Quick Reply box deletes the message in the main Reply box and this wasn't the case before. I keep accidentally erasing what I type because I close a Quick Reply box to get it out of the way and end up deleting the text. Either way please fix this, it's a pain in the ass.
I find that if I'm trying to make a new thread, regardless of the board, I keep getting "Invalid CAPTCHA" when I click submit, UNTIL I refresh the page, at which point the CAPTCHA is still the same CAPTCHA and my same answer now works and the post goes through. Started habbening around maybe two weeks ago. I cannot go on like this
Why "Local Times" feature no work?
I think the websockets on .se broke again Can't have anything nice in this life for too long
>>15987 pinged the powers that be, probably something simple >>15984 >>15538 localStorage.setItem("qrClearOnClose", "false"); it's feature flagged, need to add it to the settings dialog but also already lynxchan-- does that part of the problem is the QR is basically an extension of the posting form and all posting goes through the posting form, but they really should be two completely separate entities with configurable sharing behavior the code's a mess
>>15986 tor browser? private window? relies on the browser reporting your timezone which it won't do if you're running one that's anal about your privacy
>>15989 >pinged the powers that be, probably something simple Seems to be working again, thanks We're so back
