Place to plop down suggestions for the site as we work on it. I realize that’ll be cleared out once the site is refreshed for the public, but that’s fine I think.
I think you should be able to forward/embed posts from other pages. For example I was gonna try to embed Tims suggestion in the other thread but I can’t find a satisfactory way to do that. At least on mobile lol.
Also when I copied the link, in full, it looks like:
https://www.zcland.net/t/my-french-hole/389/12?u=ayden
I wonder what the ?u=ayden is doing here. Hopefully that doesn’t just let you log in as someone else.
Maybe regular users should have the ability to move which subforum a thread of theirs is in. I don’t see what the downside would be.
- That metadata being appended to shared links is yet another awkward Discourse default. I’ll get rid of it.
- what would you want an embedded post to actually look like? Like a forum link that renders with a page preview? A specific post’s contents being rendered in the thread? How does pure handle such a thing today?
I think it should be a preview of the whole box containing the post basically. I don’t recall offhand how it works there, but regardless I think this would be a QOL upgrade Here.
“How does pure handle such a thing today?”
Box with user/date/time and then the referenced message with a link in the top right corner of the box. The referenced text is copied on quote and not dynamic to the linked post.
