It was about GeneralDiscussions/Politics actually.
I did not want to hurt your feelings, just separate different topics from each other. Simply the moderator’s job. :wink:
Ya. I get it
@Panther no not that, it is something different. there used to be a very small link at the bottom of the forum page, I think it was “who’s online”. and you can see everyone online and what they were up to.
@axis-dominion said in Forum Migration To Do List:
we used to be able to see how many times our attachments were downloaded. can this be supported with this new software as well?
I don’t think we can. :disappointed:
also, we used to be able to view who’s online and what they were doing. I always felt that was helpful. any chance we can have that feature here too?
What @Panther said and it’s an outstanding bug that everybody has “Hidden” status. The default is to show status. The next version of NodeBB will fix this.

I have this aggregate data on the Admin dashboard so the software is tracking it. There are way too many possible features for me to request them all myself. Please head over to community.nodebb.com and request this feature. Be sure to @ message me on the request. I’m djensen47 over there.
@djensen TripleA pre-release with new A&A play by forum poster can be downloaded and tested: https://github.com/triplea-game/triplea/releases/tag/1.9.0.0.13066
We will look to publish this on the TripleA website as the next official stable this weekend if no major issues are found during testing.
@redrum That’s great news!
Don’t forget to change the topic id
I have created a respective topic in the Software category.
https://www.axisandallies.org/forums/topic/32464/triplea-pre-release-working-with-the-forum
I have a few questions concerning the forum:
League games.
Is there a way to highlight our names for a faster search?
I know we have the alert and it is very useful, but if you have a few games going and have to perform different task like, on one you will ask for a scramble Option, the next game you might answer to a scramble option, the very next game you try to download the file is keeping you very busy with searching.
The old forum format had a face icon to let you quickly determin if it was a topic you often replied to.
Also if we can have some sort of auto search typing when we create a new topic for the League (League only).?
What i mean is this:
L18 aequitas et veritas vs Opponent X Game 1
This could be combined with a counter (game 1,2,3 etc…)and a calendar (L18, L19, or L2018)
While this could be fitted with an automated typing wich er had on the old format when we filled in the box: search members
When we wrote a PM.
Is this possible?
It would ease a lot.
Thank you in advance for your thoughts about this.
Oh almost forgot.
I like the little animes P@nther an you did to show how to do things or find things.:+1:
@aequitas-et-veritas There’s a new button on top. It looks like a reply-all button. It shows all of your alerts. Then you can filter by type, mine is set to “Replies”.
You can also view all of your watched topics:

How’s the dice roller coming?
@simon33 I might use a bot instead since it’s already done.
@djensen thank you for reminding me again.😀

Not sure I understand. That’s already possible? How?
You would do something like
@bot roll 5d6
And a bot would respond with the result. The dice roller I made does basically the same thing except the bot is more flexible.
Since my work here is not limited to this To Do list and so you have an idea what and when change have been made. I started a monthly log:
https://www.axisandallies.org/forums/topic/32532/forum-update-log-nov-2018
The thread is locked to make it easy to read. @Panther please feel free to add items you’ve done as you see fit.
The log will also help me know when to stop or take a break.

Sorry I’m still confused. Exactly what do I type to use this bot?
@simon33 It’s not ready yet. But the syntax will similar to what we had before.
Two questions.
And also a huge thank you to Djensen and anyone else doing the work. The new site looks great and I really appreciate all the effort that has gone into keeping this going and improving the experience.
Sounds like a bug. What skin were you using when you couldn’t see the chat.
Click the Users icon in the Navbar. The online option shows you who is online. The grey dot on everybody’s profile will go to green or red after we upgrade this weekend. Green is online, red is offline. There’s no let of recently online, that would be nice. I’ll look for a plug-in.
@djensen The skin I was using was slate. Messages that have been posted already appeared in a white font on the dark grey background but when I was trying to write the message it was a dark colour(maybe black but it looked like a very dark blue) on the dark grey background. Could barely make it out.
