isnt the https fix/embed going to work with tweets posted before yesterday?

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.

this needs separating up more than ever now; most of the time i've only ever wanted just images and no youtubes, etc

That could be doable, I think. Will take a look.

Fixed! And hopefully tweets should now embed properly too.

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.

> 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)

I’m on 77 now, but it’s not showing up in Site New Answers despite being configured to do so?

Uh, so I just posted to a 77 thread, and now that thread shows up on SNA, but no other threads from 77 are there. Perhaps the other threads have just been inactive for long enough for them to fall off SNA.

For awhile now bookmarks haven't worked (aren't updasted) when I'm on www.ilxor.com. When I remove the wwww. part they do work. Just fyi.

Le Bateau Ivre, Friday, 19 May 2017 20:02 (six years ago) link

when i open a thread that has some images in it, why does the thread open at the images instead of the most recent post? e.g. i open the us politics thread and it keeps opening at the belle and sebastian image w/ the two trump ladies even though there a bunch of posts after that

I've had the same problem for years, just went with "forget it, jake, it's chinatown."

I had this thread bookmarked: https://www.ilxor.com/ILX/ThreadSelectedControllerServlet?boardid=41&threadid=105785&action=showall&bookmarkedmessageid=6338014 (one of the many AG Manchester threads) but when I try to load it to remove the bookmark I get the "This thread does not appear to exist. If you had it bookmarked, perhaps the thread has been moved to another board" alert. Just want to delete the bookmark at this point.

Elvis Telecom, Friday, 2 June 2017 07:21 (six years ago) link

You should be able to delete it from the Bookmarks page

did the pic.twitter.com links in embedded tweets stop embedding on both the website and IN ZING? or were they always things you had to click?

𝔠𝔞𝔢𝔨 (caek), Friday, 9 June 2017 19:26 (six years ago) link

I didn't change anything, I think it's something Twitter-side

stet, Friday, 9 June 2017 19:53 (six years ago) link

seeing them embedded on my desktop (Chrome/Win10) fwiw

sleeve, Friday, 9 June 2017 19:56 (six years ago) link

oh looks like I did mess up after all (stupid git). Should be working again now

i dunno how u expect stet to know whether you've been working or not for the past few days tbh

Fair

Note: possibly working but quite slow. I'm on phone also not patient.

jk rowling obituary thread (darraghmac), Friday, 28 July 2017 13:38 (six years ago) link

Had no probs whatsoever. Were you perhaps searching shirtless deems?

Le Bateau Ivre, Friday, 28 July 2017 14:26 (six years ago) link

Sir i was not

Stet, it seems particularly exacerbated if I search for a phrase in quotes rather than a single word. may be nothing more a combination of being in a bad area of coverage in work and the extra complexity of such a search?

two weeks pass...

Hey guys, I'm guessing there are updates afoot as I've been forcibly logged out a couple times this morning. Just wanted to let you know: I have images turned off in my preferences but they are currently showing up in threads anyway.

Say, I Heard You Had a Quarrel With Your Best Girl (Old Lunch), Thursday, 17 August 2017 14:27 (six years ago) link

Or possibly only tweets are displaying?

I've been getting site can't be reached errors a bunch today

Moodles, Thursday, 17 August 2017 14:29 (six years ago) link

Yes, rolling out some updates today. I seem to have introduced a bug where logged-in users with images off still see tweets, but I can't see where! Will take another look this evening
