CHANGELOG

What's new/changed in ILX code

(v3.15 b23)
You can now press the "b" key while on a thread to bookmark its latest post. (This will work even if you can't *see* the post, so is a good way to reset the bookmark if the latest post has been deleted)

can we have the uppers music play when viewing this thread?

(v3.16 b13)
More keyboard shortcuts -- if you have unread bookmarks, keys 1-9 will open them. Pressing "p" in a thread will highlight the post field. So you can ILX mouse-free, sort-of.

omg that is amazing, thank you

(3.16 b18)
- You now press "s" from most pages to go to Site New Answers
- (Admin only) the list of a user's flagged posts is now sorted by the time the posts were made

- You now press "s" from most pages to go to Site New Answers

this crept up on me and is marvellous (thanks to williamc for pointing out this thread)

MIND.
BLOWN.

(I'm serious that's brilliant. Although a link to SNA is the first icon on my Bookmarks Toolbar in Firefox anyway.)

Learning abt this a couple of weeks ago has completely changed my ~ilx experience~, all for the better.

holy shit

the b key to bookmark latest post was used by my cat about 5 minutes ago. she thanks you.

what did your cat bookmark?

things cats type

i couldn't figure out the answer to this question; i believe she bookmarked something that was already bookmarked

anyway, i've been getting a "your connection is not private" warning a lot lately on chrome on many ilx pages, such as search. then i just reload and it goes away. is this bad?

I saw the same thing a few minutes ago -- maybe the https certificate expired?

yes i just got the "connection not private" warning also

It's like there are two certificates? One that expires today and one that's valid until March 30th

i am getting it on https://www.ilxor.com/ILX/SiteNewAnswersControllerServlet

(= my usual landing page)

I just saw that.

yeah also having this issue

Is there an issue with the cert I'm getting an error

The automatic renewal script seems to have missed a step — I think I've fixed it now. Let me know if people are still seeing it pls

thx, not getting it anymore here.

3.17: API changes to support Zing

thx also 3.17. Those who are persevering (in misfortune and steadfast in fulfilling God's commandments, and in refraining from sins), and truthful (in their words and actions, and true to their covenants), and devoutly obedient, and who spend (out of what God has provided for them, in His way and for the needy), and who implore God's forgiveness before daybreak.
الصَّابِرِينَ وَالصَّادِقِينَ وَالْقَانِتِينَ وَالْمُنفِقِينَ وَالْمُسْتَغْفِرِينَ بِالأَسْحَارِ

Austin 3.17 says I just Zinged your API

API are those that are called by his software

3.18 (b3): Fixes idiotic undergrad-hackathon issue where Tweets would sometimes show garbled text when hide images was turned on, and posting links to some tweets could cause a Poxy Fule.

3.19 (b1) Fixes a PoxyFule you could get when trying to login in v. unusual circumstances

3.18 (b3): Fixes idiotic undergrad-hackathon issue where Tweets would sometimes show garbled text when hide images was turned on, and posting links to some tweets could cause a Poxy Fule.

3.21: Allows Zing to ask to ignore XPosts

stet what's this bookmark flag link shit and why is it all smooshed together in lagoon.css

I’m trying to tidy up the mobile view because it’s messy and those links are too wordy. I fixed the CSS on the most popular sheets, I’ll do lagoon now too.

ooh can i post that to the actual zing thread

can u fix on swiss.css

Yeah, I’ll run through as many as I can get through this evening

tyvm

requesting fix for newold.css

Did the font change too? (old.css)

Yes, it might have done on some browsers -- some mobile browsers were using bad fonts when no font at all was set, so I set one.

Have updated lagoon, newold and the swiss variants so the bookmark links have spacing again.

Also in 3.22: Admins can press "a" while in a thread to get the admin links.

(And there's a new standard-dark stylesheet, still a WIP)

please keep the no spaces on kenandark.css i love it

Also in 3.22: Admins can press "a" while in a thread to get the admin links.

nice!

excellent work stet!

finally checking this out on desktop, it's great! lovely new feature, tons of potential - thanks a bunch stet.

ah, i like the regrouped bookmarks! it always bugged me that the order was arbitrary; this is much more immediately manageable.

ahh now that i'm on desktop i get it. the hidden text isn't supposed to work on zing (yet), right?

There’s an updated version on App Store now that handles it

Very cool. Thank you!

Thanks Stet, this is great.

Sawyer is the horse

DAMN YOU MATT DC

Serves you right

3.43
- You can mark all bookmarks as read from the Bookmarks page
- YouTube embedder now catches all youtube formats, including .be

(3.41 and 3.42 had updates to admin tools for managing FPs)

<3

Thank you, stet!

Could this have broken bookmarks in Zing? I'm getting a warning triangle sign, no bookmarks.

Warning triangle usually means something’s gone wrong with your saved login. Try logging in again from settings (or just reinstall Zing)

Removed and reinstalled the app but no change.

(Update All Bookmarks To Latest Answer (‘Mark as read’) = a lifesaver though, thanks so much)

I don't get why anyone would want to do that. I bookmark content I want to read. Skipping it is missing out on the thing I want.

Like I'm always reading too many books at once and buying books I might not get round to and it's a niggle that they're all just THERE but moving all my bookmarks to the last page isn't the same as, well, reading them...

Sometimes an Ilxor logs out for several months and wants to clear the board when they return

I've been away a week and have 60-ish bookmarks w/ new answers. Rather than going by them one by one, I prefer marking all read, and then when a bookmark is bumped again while I'm actually here, I'll read and read back what I missed and dip back in again. Without feeling forced to clear 60 bookmarks by hand to feel up to date again.

tl;dr it's complicated but works for me

xp

I sometimes go away for a while and come back to pages of bookmarks I'm like "a new project! So much to read!"

(I'm also like "what am I doing with my life?!)

i have literally thousands of bookmarks
adding several hundred more manually now

I have bookmarks for removed threads as a kind of memorial.

A belated thanks to stet for implementing short url YT embeds.

LBI — can you log in using Safari on your iPhone and then visit this link and tell me what happens?

Just tried that, and that works (ie. takes me to my bookmarks on iPhone in Safari). But I also just checked zing, and I've my bookmarks back there now, too!

Sweet

3.45
Yellow Card reasons are now kept private and won't show in the admin log

https://i.pinimg.com/originals/7c/e7/34/7ce73493f14c0af2e1604cafb8c27eb8.gif

lol I had no idea this place was rife with erotic tension.

it's how we solve things here 😎

3.45
- added a sans-serif font option to balance out all the serifs
- some changes (not visible yet) to change the homepage over to SNA instead of the boards list

3.46
- Teal-and-orange stylesheet (beta) added
- Fixed search hints not showing

3.46.4
- View Previous Page link on threads should now work properly

3.47 - cmd+enter (or ctrl on windows) now submits a post

3.48 a change to how Flag Post works: now if you flag more than one post by the same user, we record the most recent flagging. This isn't the ideal solution yet, but it's better than throwing away the most recent flag as we used to.

3.49 now support links to X as well as Twitter, though god knows why
