I like being able to link to a single post instead of an entire thread. Is that a thing that we can already do, and I just don't know about it?

If not, is that a thing that Titus could add with his wizard powers?

If not, is there a corner I can go cry in for not getting my way?

Sure, Smarts....

...its the corner over there next to Ahnk.

Hmm, so this appears to be mildly broken, but the feature does exist.

If you hit the little out arrow next to each name you'll see a big number. If that number and hashtag is appended to the current page URL the users' browser will hop to that post when hte page is loaded. At the moment I don't think we can load just one post on a page.

Fixing this is as easy as adding the current page URL to the link for that post ID, I'll clobber it with my next bugfix release.

Loading to a particular post is good enough for me.

I thought that number was probably what I was looking for earlier and tried to get it to work on my own, but was unsuccessful. I was probably using the page 1 URL with a later-page post number or something.

Anyway thanks, you know, for the part where you make the board work, and stuff.

This is getting fixed tonight, the URL structure was all wrong.

Pagination is still fucked if users want to manually set their avatars/profile photos. You can do it with admin rights and knowledge of the file structure, but I'm pretty sure the CMS is parsing the old URL structure still.

I'm not exactly sure what you mean Zark. I see that I didn't really fix the individual post issue. Anything past page 1 doesn't link to the correct page. I think I'll switch that around to just link to a page with the standalone post on it.

Users can't edit avatars and profile pics, just in general?

Sorry I should have been more specific. No, users are technically able to edit their profile to upload the respective pictures, but at least when I tried it the other day the URL structure for my avatar would be broken. I assumed this was the case for everyone, I'll have to try and repro it. Basically I had to edit my user config to point to image paths that I had to manually upload to the file server.

edit: so I don't know enough to diagnose and fix this, but it seems that you and I are the only ones who's url structure goes by datas/users/imgvalue/image.tag while everyone else's pictures come from datas/avatars/userid-image.tag or datas/avatars/import/userid-image.tag
and it seems like the default structure can't parse the image if you do it through the settings gui.

hope this helps.

Okay I think I've diagnosed the problem. It had more to do with me being an admin and my lack of CMS experience than anything. Basically the avatar and photo plugin for the profile still link to the old file structure, so you have to manually edit people's profiles to fix it, and if you upload two different images with the same name, I believe the CMS defaults to whichever was uploaded first, which can be a pain for testing picture resolution/quality.

I was able to set up my stuff by editing my account to redirect to the images I manually uploaded to the users page, but my avatar and photo files are stuck at an early version and I'm too lazy to rename them. :P
