Forum Discussion v6 - Newpunch Migration Underway - General

[QUOTE=Scratch.;53065042]Is this a greentext without arrows?[/QUOTE] That's why I've always found "meme arrows" such a dumb blanket ban reason. They're a very succinct way to paraphrase things.

[QUOTE=Scratch.;53065042]Is this a greentext without arrows?[/QUOTE] Is this the philosoraptor meme without the image?

[QUOTE='[aL`H]solokiller`og;53065192']The "Read Threads With New Posts" page shows this thread has a post made 9 hours ago: [url]https://facepunch.com/showthread.php?t=1527202&page=6[/url] But it doesn't show up in the thread itself.[/QUOTE] Quick tip if this bothers you, click "mark unread" then reopen the thread and that should fix it.

I know it is generally unacceptable but can you please change my username to "k3ro"? Originally when I sign up for the forum the username "kero" was taken so I used this special invisible letter between the r and the o so that I will still be able to use this username, but then one day I went on the forum chat and because of that special letter my username was seen as "k172!$*!@$ro" and Garry was upset about it so he renamed me "kero_stupidname". I didn't like it so I asked him to change it and he did, making it "kero_". I can't stand this underscore and I do understand that "kero" is taken so can you please just make it "k3ro" so that I don't have this annoying underscore?

the underscore looks better anyway

[QUOTE=Revenge282;53063100]To confirm, VB4 does this, and I think this forum is built on VB3. So it is safe to assume that they didn't make the database design worse over time.

If Facepunch is looking for a Newpunch database dev/admin, PM me :badzing:

Will you be able to resize images on newpunch? Only having three sizes of pictures (img, thumb, and quote) is a bit annoying.

[QUOTE=Clovis;53068336]I mean you can resize images in paint[/QUOTE] Yeah, but it would be nice to get wysiwyg resizing to see exactly how big it would be in the post.

[QUOTE=KillerJaguar;53065296]That's why I've always found "meme arrows" such a dumb blanket ban reason. They're a very succinct way to paraphrase things.[/QUOTE] tell me about it

[QUOTE=Clovis;53068497]Ok so on the new forum I hit Login/Join, then it prompts me to authorize login using another service, so I use steam. Then it brings me straight to the 'create new account' page. I can't just log in. What gives? I literally hit "Login/Join" and then i dont have an option to log in, only to sign up.[/QUOTE] You need to make the account first and then you can merge it with an existing oldpunch account as far as I know.

[QUOTE=Clovis;53068634]I did that weeks to months ago[/QUOTE] Might be because you're logged into google with an email different than the one you used to sign up with then. I frequently get that when I've logged into my work email from home. Try logging out of whatever you're signed into first.

I thought of a cool idea for newpunch, post favoriting, you would have a list of posts you favorited in your profile, for bookmarking your favorite lmao pics or toxxes and such.

Thread Version 5 in the OP goes to an editpost.php link, right is [url]https://facepunch.com/showthread.php?t=1584775[/url]

[QUOTE=Clovis;53068634]I did that weeks to months ago[/QUOTE] login with the original method, then you can add your steam login to that account

[QUOTE=Clovis;53069369]What original method? Its never letting me log in Its loterally forcing me to the sign up page after forcing me to log in with steam/google/fb[/QUOTE] If it's forcing you to sign up, then you are not using the social account you used to create the forum account If you don't know what this is, ask Kiwi, they will tell you what email and social service you have linked on your account [sp]without asking 🤨[/sp]

I didn't even realize the steam logins were implemented. Was it just silently completed or was there an announcement?. I should try migrating/creating my account and see if it works.

[QUOTE=Scratch.;53069441]garry made a thread about it, alongside the announcement of linking multiple services to the account[/QUOTE] Missed that. Created account/migrated successfully.

How long should it take till one gets the verification email?

[QUOTE=Combine 177;53069593]How long should it take till one gets the verification email?[/QUOTE] You mean for newpunch?, I got it in less than 15 secs.

[QUOTE=EE 20 D0;53069594]You mean for newpunch?, I got it in less than 15 secs.[/QUOTE] Weird, haven't got mine for near half hour. [editline]21st January 2018[/editline] Now I am getting bombarded, oh no.

[QUOTE=TheBorealis;53068346]Yeah, but it would be nice to get wysiwyg resizing to see exactly how big it would be in the post.[/QUOTE] The only problem is that the width of the post can be different for everyone, depending on their screen/browser window size. So if you format your pictures into a nice stacked 4x4 wall it will look like ass when someone's screen is slightly less wide

Is anyone unable to get embedded tweets and hotlinks from twitter to display on Firefox Quantum? I have ublock origin and noscript installed. I don't know about ublock, but I did try with scripts allowed, but it didn't work. Haven't attempted it with either one completely disabled yet.
