Glowfic platform

Do you have a setting, character, plot, art, or other notion that you wish to put on the Internet? This is the Internet! Whee!

This is probably really hard to implement, but it would be super neat if, when you have a thread open and there's a new post, then the page updates automatically and optionally does a notification if you're in another tab/window. Built-in tag/update notifications.

Can I set the displayed time zone? I'd prefer not to do the arithmetic myself.

That... might not actually be as hard as I'm fearing? Unless you're on page-not-the-last-page. Will put it on my feature list, just to poke at.

Already on the feature list :)

Can somebody recommend a convenient place to upload icons for the meantime?

I did this
  • made a character
  • put her in a template
  • deleted the template
  • reloaded a thread page
expected: in character dropdown, she appears under Templateless
actual: in character dropdown, she does not appear at all

Good catch, thank you! I think I know the issue, I'll work on a fix.

Sooo it's really late and I'm on an airplane and this is not a good time to be making site changes. Did I do so anyway? Of course I did.

Updates!
  • Fix for the template bug Ezra posted is up.
  • Div-based forum, now a thing. The annoying whitespace-y sidebar should be gone when reading a post; the infobox now floats. Love and adore Kappa for doing most of the work.
  • You can now choose to post without an icon, even if you have an avatar / images for your character.I
  • I decided to force per_page on the reply permalink so that it doesn't do the weird redirect thing.
