✅ Forum Migration To Do List

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:

How’s the dice roller coming?

@djensen thank you for reminding me again.😀

@djensen said in ✅ Forum Migration To Do List:

@simon33 I might use a bot instead since it’s already done.

Not sure I understand. That’s already possible? How?

@djensen said in ✅ Forum Migration To Do List:

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.

Sorry I’m still confused. Exactly what do I type to use this bot?

Two questions.

1. Is there a way to change the font in chat. I just tried to send a message to someone and had to change the skin in order for the font colour to stand out. I would rather change the skin.
2. And is the list of active users in a thread telling you who is currently (or very recently) online?

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.

@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.

He Gents,

one questions: In the old forums I could set a screen name which was different than my account name. Is this still possible? With the new forums my screen name is my account name again. Can I set this again or is this function gone?

@JapanDOWRound1Fan
Yes it is possible to change your Username and your “Full Name”.
I have described it in detail in the Tips&Tricks-thread:

@djensen ok. Thanks!
