I'm not sure if this was specifically requested, but topic icons (which previously were only enabled in KD because dwarves really need to emote on their forum topics) should not display as wonkily anymore, and are now an option for new topics in all fora. Let us know if they continue to show up weird or in unexpected places.

Hello. Can I please request a thread title change for this thread. I would like it to be called Plaza History Project: KINGDOMS Ruler Icons.

Thank you!

Welcome, lovely! :smooch: Thanks for doing SO MUCH archive crawling that you need two separate Ruler icon threads! :lol:

:lol: 16+ years of plaza life resulted in too many rulers for one thread. It's not just me spreading out! :tongue:

Is there a way to resize images using bbcode on the plaza? I would much rather not have to go and resize images before uploading them to imgbb. All too often I have tried to post a photo and it is ridiculously huge.

As we've both just found out through testing, there doesn't seem to be :cry: At least not that our board is currently equipped with.

*Grumbles about having to resize everything on the computer first*

Well, at least we've both figured that out. And hopefully something can easily be added to allow it.

I haven't been able to figure out a way to resize them within BB code, and I tried for a whole evening once as @Burnt Toast can attest XD

We can look into whether that's something we can customize. In the meantime, I'd recommend flickr as a free image host that offers several size options for sharing uploaded photos, or yeah ... just resize them before uploading.

Thanks for looking into the photo sizing thing @Tarawen! I'll be sure to check it out soon.

And can this thread please get pinned? I don't want the (hopefully) helpful info it has to get lost.

Can you screenshot that? As in go to edit and show what you get there? Cause I am pretty sure you should be able to. @Tarawen

If you go to edit any post, there should be a subject line that appears above the main text box. For most posts on the Plaza, changing this does nothing since individual post titles aren't displayed. But if you edit the first post in a thread, changing the subject line should change the overall thread title. Example:

Well yes I see that, but the last time I tried it it didn't work, so I assumed I didn't have the power.

Clearly something went wrong last time, and it's working now. No need to bother @Tarawen, ok @Tarawen?

Hmmm @Lirimaer did you get any kind of error when you tried? Or did it save and just not change the title?

HAHA simul I'm glad it's working! :winkkiss:

Glad it got sorted! Not that we mind helping, but that would have driven me nuts not being able to do that myself <3

Dear friends, you may have noticed that the more interesting and animated smilies have disappeared from next to the post box in the full editor. Fear not! All of your favorites are still there, we've just cleaned things up to make the smily list less huge and distracting. If you click 'view more smilies,' a box will pop up with the rest :party:

Edit:

Also: :conga:

A perma link to the discord would be nice until we have either PM/DM capabilities. (every link I've found thus far is expired) and would like to chat with people about ideas outside of OOC for the sake of planning things and getting ideas nailed down.

Not sure if the discord is official site based or someones personal server they started couldn't find enough info that way.
