Im seeing replied posts.
What gives?
-
Forum now notifies you of replies to topics you've been in, sort of like Facebook notifications.
Is it annoying? Let me know.
-
I thought it was neat.
Only thing I think is a bit annoying is that youtube links are automatically embedded as videos; it should be an optional thing.
-
....in the reply notification on the right, or in posts?
-
i-in posts. i don't think it would show a youtube video in the notification...
-
There's a new version of the auto-embedder. Perhaps I will try it out later and maybe it will give you the option as an user to disable the auto-embed.
-
i actually like it! ;D
i did have a wtf moment at first but i think it a very convenient feature for the forum

i-in posts. i don't think it would show a youtube video in the notification...
Try using the (url=Insertyoutubelink.here)And use a sentence here(/url) now, and use brackets instead of parentheses.
Let me do a test:
Here's an example of a Cave Story Tune in Youtube (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jehA0k3i9iA#) as a link! As you can see, it works!
If you just enter the URL, however:
Theme Song - Cave Story - Doukutsu Monogatari (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jehA0k3i9iA#)
You get this.
-
That's a good fix. I didn't like how YouTube vids would automatically be embedded when using the <url></url> code.
-
Yeah the embedder turns out to be a little TOO smart when catching the urls.
Using it in a sentence with the URL tag should work now. I enabled that option.
I can also disable its usage if it gets quoted (which I think is the default - disabled).
You guys as users should let me know whether you can find a spot where you can toggle the videos, 'cuz I'm not sure you can just disable the auto-embed but at least now you know how to disable it yourself when you're posting.
-
The notifications on the right side, is it possible for individual users to enable or disable it? I really don't like it myself, especially since it just shows a whole bunch of stuff real quickly and then disappears. Doesn't even give me a chance to process any of it.
-
I can slow it down, as it does come up rather fast and, unlike Facebook, doesn't leave the "Red Number" somewhere you can click.
However, it does seem like a cool 'reminder' if you're in the middle of typing something.
-
Just to make this less annoying
make it into a button with a drop down window
-
It's not up to me, pal. :P
That's how the notification is. I can get rid of it or keep it. If I could edit it, I would.
-
It keeps giving me notifications for replies to threads I posted in several months ago, heh. "SOMEBODY REPLIED TO THIS THREAD A LONG TIME AGO, SO I'LL NOTIFY YOU EVEN THOUGH YOU CLEARLY DIDN'T GIVE ENOUGH A SHIT TO CHECK IT OUT WHEN THE REPLY WAS NEW."
:]
-
I think once it catches up, it'll slow down.
