Is there a list of Admin/Mods somewhere? There used to be, but I can't seem to find one now.

Dave · Feb 17, 2011

Admin - Dave

Mods - Gusto, Espy, North_Ranger & CajunGal.

When we configure our signatures we're allowed to resize them accordingly for the forums. Usually for normal image posts you the forums tends to resize them automatically. However for signatures it doesn't work very well.

Is this working as intended? I like my mexican creepy signor signature.

Dave · Mar 17, 2011

There are still known issues with signatures. In fact, a lot of boards have them turned off. As long as people don't abuse it I'm leaving them on.

I'd gladly accept a 50% reduction to my gif if any of you sexy photogods can create me one.

When are we going to get the ability to embed Blip.tv videos?

figmentPez · Sep 14, 2011

Oh well, thanks for the explanation AmE.

Dave · Sep 15, 2011

There are several new ways of embedding coming in XF 1.1.

Dave · Sep 15, 2011

It's made for Admins and explains how to embed videos from any source. So theoretically, once 1.1 comes out I'll be able to embed from anywhere.

"Any" source? I remain skeptical cuz that would be a very hard thing to do. Or at least not easily and would require a lot of handwork per each individual site you want to embed from. I guess that's why the video is 14 minutes long?

The most important thing is: How easy will it be for users to embed stuff? Anything beyond a simple URL copy/paste has proven to be too much of a hassle for most people.

That depends on how we want it set up.

Dave · Sep 15, 2011

Basically what it says is that there are three ways to do videos.

Prints links as links and only embeds when you use the Media BB Code thing above.
Auto embeds when a link is pasted in a thread. So if someone posted http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_wl7CD5B7Q& it wouldn't show a link it would show the actual embedded video.
Auto embeds and includes a link underneath.

Dave · Sep 15, 2011

The quick answer is yes.

Here's the examples he uses:

If you look at the way they embed, Blip.tv should be able to be done.

Jay · Sep 19, 2011

I'd somewhat like it if we were able to check this link :

https://www.halforums.com/online/

But only see registered forum members and not the 100 lurkers we have on this board at all times.

(we should try to get them to register)

----------

Also, I'd like it if when I check for members it'll automatically sort them by most posts (even though that number is BS). So that I can check regular forum members first instead of scrolling through pages of inactive posters.

Thanks

We need a "music" thread topic/prefix in the media madness section.
