The Glowfic Constellation

It's cool, I just didn't remember if they were supposed to be currently usable.

Email notifications are now a thing.
- You must have an email address associated with your account
- You must have turned on email notifications, which are off by default
Both of these things can be fixed by going to the Account link if you are so inclined. Also, it attempts to be smart / non-spammy and will only email you once per multiple-in-a-row-by-same-author posts.

Also in the course of running tests pre-deploy I realized I had broken the Mark Continuity Read/Hidden button (LOOK YOU GUYS MY TESTS HELPED) so I fixed that too, and you'll get better error messages when you fail to create a reply or to sign up for the site.

~eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee notifications~

But now that I'm done gleeing, thoughts:

- It might be tidier if all of the notifications for a single thread had the same email title regardless of who was replying that particular time (and whether they were replying or editing? do you send edit notifications?), so I would not currently have two separate email conversations in gmail about the fourthwall thread with Pedro and Adelene
- For the future, maybe a thing where you can set whether or not you're following a particular thread individually?

So I <3 the Constellation and continue to have requests because obviously it should be tailored to my specific preferences.

Right now, if you assign two icon galleries to the same character, when you go to select an icon for a post the icons from both the galleries are mixed together in alphabetical order. Would it be possible (and would other people find it convenient?) for all of the icons from one gallery to be listed first, and then all the icons from the other gallery?

(My particular use case is that one character has both "tiny Sapphire" and "teenage Sapphire" icons, and for any particular post obviously I know which gallery I want to pick from, but want to browse through the icons from that gallery to determine the correct emotion.)

this would be so great

or like, maybe as an option?

but it would be so great

Email notifications - I can certainly change the subjects. There is not yet edit notifications, no. Subscribing I think is on the issues list somewhere (I'll double check) as is password reset and email verification, cause ultimately I'd like to not bother sending emails unless you've confirmed the one you gave me.

Separated galleries - That's already in the tracker and Throne3d has already sent me a pull request for it :) He made it with a user setting option to turn it off, too.

Small updates again!

• Subjects are now just 'New reply in the thread Thread Title'
• I now explicitly import normalize.css, a cool cleaner-up thing PDV found, as the first step in CSS, so any CSS we write ourselves for the site takes precedence.
• Throne3d made it so you get icons grouped by gallery in the icon picker! And also added titles and alts to the icons as loaded by Javascript, which is much prettier. And made a user setting so you can turn it off if you want to. (He is so great.)

So my outtake was written entirely by me and marked complete and yet it was in the Unread page.

[Marri]

I'm still working on a bug where, if a post has replies but the most recent thing edited was the top level post, it does not mark unread properly. Using the Mark As Unread button should do it, but just viewing it and it still listing as "unread" is a Known Bug.

[Marri]

I have pushed attempts at the following things, as requested by I think Adelene, DanielH, Alicorn and Moriwen:

• /posts/:id?page=last
• /posts/:id?page=unread#unread which is now also used by the Unread page
• Posts now have a menu on the top right instead of a bunch of buttons, and a new option View Flat HTML that will display the (entire unpaginated) thread in a very stripped down form. No top menus, no links, nothing, just the tags with their icons. Useful for downloading for later reading / backups / whatever, do bear in mind the lack of links means there's no on-page navigation.
• When listing out posts, it should now display some basic page numbers. So like "Thread Title [1 2 3]" or if there are lots of pages "Thread Title [1 2 3 ... 12 13 14]" or whatever. (Moriwen hopefully this helps with the Tags Owed page thing, though I'm considering making it link to unread#unread instead)

The unread thing is a bit janky; I've already had to release a couple bugfixes, so please report issues.
