Streethop 2.5: Upgrades and Fixes

[Eric]

First, I have to thank you for getting rid of the retard go-back-to-main-page-to-get-back-to-our-block thing. That really makes my day. I have some key requirements that need to be added or changed. Others feel free to chime in with your own ideas. Rukas...Pitt-C...listen.

"This message requires 10 characters." I understand this to be a plot to make Carmi flee from the board. However, sometimes I like to have a simple 3-character smiley myself. Can we go back to 3 characters minimum?

News to the right (no Puffnscruff (R-FL)..not Fox News). I miss the News Bar on the right. It was convenient. You are making me do one more click than I care to do.

Thumbs down. How come the thumb smiley (what? oxymoron?) isn't working?

Thumbnail ViewIs the image limit per post only 3 still? Can we up that to something more? I have plenty of porn pics I want to post and 3 per post is annoying!! I suggest implementing a thumbnail view for an unlimited amount of pics.

YouTube It would be ultimate to post a video streaming within the thread without clicking a link. What's wrong with that?

ShoutboxBring it back.

 

[Casey]

Shoutbox ain't coming back for shit.

However, Arcade should come back for VIP's only, IMO.

The YouTube embedding should be easy. I've seen it on other boards running vBulletin.
Used via BBCode; [youtube][/youtube].

 

[Farzin]

^ I agree with the YouTube thing.

Arcades, pictures or whatever would take more resources from the server and would probably not be a great idea since this change was made to make the site faster.

Youtube this is postable, just have to show the ropes on the link.

That news on the side thing is being worked on, have to see if its compatible with this site.

That 10 characters/smiley things are among the list of problems, but not as important to fix first.

You can use the embed code on YouTube's site to make a BB code so users can display YouTube movies inside of their posts, with the I Agree dropdown notice:

Admin CP -> Custom BB Codes -> Add New BB Code

Title - YouTube
Tag - youtube
Replacement:

Code:

<table class="tborder" cellpadding="6" cellspacing="1" border="0" width="466"><tr><td class="smallfont"><strong>IMPORTANT NOTICE:</strong> No media files are hosted on these forums. By clicking the link below you agree to view content from an external website. We can not be held responsible for the suitability or legality of this material. If the video does not play, wait a minute or try again later.</div></td></tr>
<tr><td class="smallfont" align="right"><a href="#" onclick="return toggle_collapse('{param}')"></a><a href="#" onclick="return toggle_collapse('{param}')"> I AGREE</a></td></tr><tbody id="collapseobj_{param}" style="display:none;"><tr><td class="alt1" align="center"><object width="425" height="350"><param name="movie" value="<A href="http://www.youtube.com/v/{param}"></param><embed">http://www.youtube.com/v/{param}"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/{param}" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="425" height="350"></embed></object></td></tr></tbody>

Did your example not work?
Let me see if I can find the other codes I had again.

no, you have to add a custom BBcode in the admin panel. The example is just to show how to input it in a post.

Shoutbox.

 

[Tru Principle]

shoutbox

 

[Preach]

probably not gonna happen, but co-sign on the shout box and thumbs-up icon.

 

[Sebastian]

Shoutbox was mad gay.

 

[Rukas]

Ill add youtube function in a couple hours; out at dinner right now its my moms birthday.

A shoutbox will do more harm than good right now as it lowers threads and posts. Just use Our Block for general chit chat, why do you need a shoutbox? The board runs Ajax now which is the same quick update as shoutbox so you guys can pretty much just chat within threads.

 

[tHuG $TyLe]

Yeah shoutbox sucks.
