Ah okay cool, thanks for checking :)

It would be handy if the "recently updated threads" page had a "see unread" link for each thread!
(Also I would find some way to "favorite" or "follow" threads useful, especially as the volume increases -- maybe with a page for "see favorited threads with unread posts" -- but that seems like a less trivial update and I don't know if anyone else would want such a thing.)

So I was discussing with Throne the possibility of creating non-terrible tree structures on the DW threads and he said the way they currently work is that the threads have a foreign key to the first post and are ordered by created_at, so a solution to that that I came up with would be treating posts that branch off as "first posts" in that a copy of it is created with a new key that serves as the foreign key for the posts that branch off of it.
So, for instance, if the db currently goes:
Code: Select all
| id | other columns | first post |
-----------------------------------
| 01 | Stuff | 01 |
| 02 | Stuff | 01 |
| 03 | Stuff | 01 |
| 04 | Stuff | 01 |
| 05 | Stuff | 01 |
| 06 | Stuff | 01 |
| 07 | Stuff | 01 |
| 08 | Stuff | 01 |
| 09 | Stuff | 01 |
| 10 | Stuff | 01 |
It would go something like:
Code: Select all
| id | other columns | first post | branching |
-----------------------------------------------
| 01 | Stuff | 01 | NULL |
| 02 | Stuff | 01 | NULL |
| 03 | Stuff | 01 | NULL |
| 04 | Stuff | 01 | NULL |
| 05 | Stuff | 01 | 04 |
| 06 | Stuff | 01 | 04 |
| 07 | Stuff | 05 | NULL |
| 08 | Stuff | 06 | NULL |
| 09 | Stuff | 05 | NULL |
| 10 | Stuff | 05 | NULL |
Where in this example, post 04 is the branching off one, posts 05 and 06 are merely copies of post 04, posts 07, 09, and 10 are part of one branch, and post 08 is part of another. Then there'd be links, or something, on post 04, that would redirect to the appropriate branches. The boards would only list the very first post on a thread, with perhaps an expandable list of branches below it, and unread branches would be what'd be shown by default on Unread and Tags Owed.
(I had another idea when I started writing this but I forgot it in the course of doing so.)

Suggestion: When in the adding icons to gallery page, have the name of the gallery appear somewhere near the top, I often open two tabs for boy Sadde and girl Sadde icon adding and then forget which tab is which.

Suggestion: a on-hiatus tag thing?
(Also a black and white theme, if that's not already on the list.
Also, if I can do that, I volunteer to give second opinions on whether a certain theme looks good.)

Suggestion: when you click an icon you can see in which threads and/or posts it's been used

So when I go to add icons to a gallery, loading all of the other icons in all of my other galleries is starting to take... kind of... a while. XD And I almost never actually want anything to do with any of them - I'm pretty much always adding new icons unless I fucked something up.
Can the "add new icon" and "add existing icon" functions be split, or optionally-split, or something, so that I can conveniently add icons without having to load every icon in my account?

Ughhhh it's been so long since I've been able to work on this I'm sorry :( Much love to Throne3d who has been picking up my slack!
To Do items added:
- Typo reporting feature
- Favoriting posts
- Subscribing to posts (I already sorta had it under Email Notifications, but decided to make it more obviously split out)
- Split Add Icon and Add Existing Icon (might get this done today, but more of my day than anticipated got eaten by "my hotel screwed up and overbooked and had to send me somewhere else for a night")
- Add Unread links in more places (This might wait until I finish the "figure out visually distinct icons to use for Permalink and Unread" issue first)
Already To Dos:
- Icon stats
- Monochrome layout (I'd love input on this actually - just the layout is monochrome? Or the success/error boxes, icons, etc as well?)
Changelog:
- Gallery page displays the gallery's name when adding icons
- In the character picker, templateless characters are now sorted by name
- Throne3d made a new group in the character picker called 'Thread Characters' which appears at the top of the list and contains only characters you have used in this thread
- Throne3d fixed a bug where the Last Page link was not disabled when visiting ?page=last

Bug: I was reading Drop in the Ocean, and on page 20-something, then I closed the window and went to bed, and now it's not on my Unread page for some reason. Incipio, however, works fine (I read the 3rd page, Unread sends me to the 4th), which makes me suspect this has something to do with a thread having been marked "Complete."

Posts getting marked complete absolutely cause Unread to get confused. This is part of the whole "posts getting edited cause them to be marked updated" problem.
