Spoiler tags are now available in chat, with the added (unintentional) protection that they can't be opened unless the page is refreshed.
They work properly in normal posts, so I'm looking into a way to fix their behaviour in the chat, but they're there now at least.This little bug has been fixed. They should now be fully operational in the chat and throughout the forum.Kong Wen wrote: ↑24 Aug 2017 15:30Spoiler tags are now available in chat, with the added (unintentional) protection that they can't be opened unless the page is refreshed.
Are you sure you're using https://thisoldneon.com/forum including the 's' in the first bit when you come to the site? If you come to the forum via http:// without the s, login, and then click the banner or any link, it'll redirect you to the https:// version of the page, which you won't be logged in to, so you'll have to login again.The Shoemaker wrote: ↑29 Aug 2017 06:37 Not a big deal, but I'm still having the login issues on mobile and PC. I have to log into the site everytime I come here, and if I click the banner to bring me back to the main page I'll likely have to log in again. I've updated my bookmark and cleared my cookies/cache.
This must be browser related somehow. It works for everyone else I've heard from, and functionally, the chat is just a dynamic post interface. Heck, it's just a text input field. I can't think of any reason it would prevent a system like spellcheck from working.The Shoemaker wrote: ↑29 Aug 2017 06:37 In regards to the spell check thing I mentioned before, for some reason the spell check on my phone works when I make a post in a thread, but is completely disabled when I type in the chat.
Alright, turns out I was using the wrong forum url, issue resolved!Kong Wen wrote: ↑29 Aug 2017 13:56Are you sure you're using https://thisoldneon.com/forum including the 's' in the first bit when you come to the site?

It's not built-in to the forum software, so it would be a mod, but I can definitely look into it!
This is something that's not uncommonly requested, and I've wondered about it from time to time myself, but opening links in the same tab is actually an accessibility/usability standard, and for that reason I've decided to stick with the default.MerlinDrazziw wrote: ↑26 Sep 2017 18:58 Is it possible to tweak the forum to open (external) links in a new window?
I know I can trigger this with holding down the cmd-key when I click a link, but it would be easier if it was a forum default.
