Has anyone spotted anything odd with the new mobile CSS? I'm pretty happy with it but there could be corners of the site I don't use that still look a bit odd.
(The space on the left is slightly wider than the space on the right but not enough to be worth updating the CSS for on its own)

So in HTML Playground the most recently updated thread seems to break something? I'm afraid to even c+p the name. Unicode was a mistake.

What does it break for you, in which browser? It has some right-to-left fun, but most modern browsers seem OK w/that
― stet, Tuesday, 18 April 2017 09:50 (nine years ago)
ha well it doesn't break in a *browser* per se, oh would you look at the time

How I wish we had image upload
serious about the money? Can throw some sheckels in

I'm working (slowly) on image upload.
I need to do some sums on the money. Amazon has discontinued the type of server we're on, so I'll need to figure out what's next

am i wrong in saying that when you open the board up for donations, you make low expectation limits within 24 hours? Seems like we could aim a bit higher with no issues.

twitter links are not showing up as hyperlinks
― k3vin k., Monday, 24 April 2017 21:30 (nine years ago)
Hey, guys, I noticed this twice today: I had multiple YouTube embed links in a post, I posted, and then everything after that initial YouTube link disappeared from the final post. Just thought you should know if you didn't already.
― Crackers and Snacks (Old Lunch), Tuesday, 25 April 2017 17:17 (nine years ago)
Yep, both problems are related. I'll fix it asap

thanks!
― k3vin k., Tuesday, 25 April 2017 20:46 (nine years ago)
So the problem I noted two posts back, it looks like it's related to whether you have images turned on or not. With images on, all of the YouTube embeds in a post appear, but with images off, the tail end of the post disappears after the first YouTube link. Hope that's helpful.

not sure if this is an ilx issue or a browser issue but my ilx login and stylesheet cookies aren't working in microsoft edge - i have to login again every time i restart the browser. cookies working fine on all the other sites i use regularly.

I noticed a while back that if a post includes both a youtube embed and a quote box, the quoted text disappears when you turn images off (but regular text is unaffected). I assume this is a related issue.
A funny thing happens when you turn images off...

Fixed! And hopefully tweets should now embed properly too.

Show Images (and other embedded media, like videos and Tweets)
this needs separating up more than ever now; most of the time i've only ever wanted just images and no youtubes, etc

can youtube embeds be forced to a smaller size? they break the right margin for me as is
css otherwise great though tyvm. (always thought i wanted an ilx android app but turns out it's simply intolerable not being able to see who bumped a thread)
― r|t|c, Wednesday, 3 May 2017 10:54 (nine years ago)
No, it's different from the other embeds -- for every posted Tweet you need to make a call to Twitter's API to get a bespoke embed code. So it only takes effect on tweets posted from now on. I could think about a batch historical job, though.
That could be doable, I think. Will take a look.

one thing I like about the way Zing displays boards instead of the real site is leaving out the "Last updated on..." headers before threads older than a day.
― your cognitive privilege (El Tomboto), Thursday, 4 May 2017 18:22 (nine years ago)
> can youtube embeds be forced to a smaller size?
um, i see what you mean. youtube videos are within an iframe with an explicit width and height. i can force the width to be 100% easily enough (or 90% or whatever) but can't yet find a way of maintaining the aspect ratio. maybe the aspect ratio is fixed anyway? (all the ones i've looked at are width="560" height="315", 16:9, but that doesn't help, i don't think)
