in Naming conventions for hierarchical field data. June 2022 edited June 2022

Interesting topic, and worth discussing I think. Here's my take, coming from the perspective of someone who's mostly a designer: The function of the field naming convention is to make it easier for multiple authors working on sheets for the same sys…

in Update and New Feature Roll-out October 2018

Nice to see updates like this coming through. Well done guys.

in Sheet Approval May 2018

Hit me up with your chat contact info when you have a sec @Kallak, and I'll break down the state of things so you can update the backlog for the team. The short story though is that a couple of teams ago they started working on improvements to the s…

in Dresden Files RPG character sheet broken May 2018

Try sending a PM to the sheet's creator, eiredrake, to see if they'll fix it up. If they're not around any more then we'd need to find someone to adopt the sheet and make the fix (which there's never been a good process for, but can be done).

in Sheet Approval May 2018 edited May 2018

I've been absent on the forums (email notifications are essential - I actually only saw this because the latest tech update was posted on Facebook and reminded me to look), but I've actually been reviewing and approving sheets all along when people …

in New Traveller DST awaiting approval May 2017

@Kallak yeah, that's been checked since the switch to the new forum software, but I never actually get emails from it.

in Images and custom image-based checkboxes May 2017

Looks cool Ozasuke. You still working on this? Unfortunately, you will need some js to do what you're doing, but fortunately there's some I've created already that you could easily adapt. You can find it here. Drop me a PM on the main site if you ha…

in New Traveller DST awaiting approval May 2017

For what it's worth, I don't get notification when people submit stuff, or when they direct message me on the forums (which I don't get to check as much as I once did). I do get notifications if you direct message me on OP itself however, so that's …

in Someone to approve DST's in a timely manner May 2017

I don't check the forums often, and there are no notifications about new DST submissions, but I'm around. If you PM me on the site itself (not the forums) it will send me an email, and I can usually check things out within a few days.

in Problem Styling Adventure Page September 2016

Usually, when a custom style isn't working on here, it's because the rule you've used is less specific than a rule that already exists. The more specific rule always trumps. The best way to look at what rules are controlling an element is to inspect…

in Internal Server Error (500) when saving character sheets in D&D 5e Campaign September 2016

I'm having the same issue with viewing any character that uses a DST, so it seems to be site wide.

in Sheet Approval September 2016

Sorry about the delay - meant to get to this a week ago, but life has been... life, heh. I'll have a look at them presently.

in Expand Allowed CSS? August 2016

Throw up a link to your CSS. The limit is pretty huge, so I'd hope there are some optimizations you could make.

in Difficulties Transferring code into OP August 2016

The "id" property isn't allowed in wiki page contents (ids must be unique on the page, and allowing it could create conflicts with ids used on the rest of the page), and therefore gets removed automatically when your page is served up to you. If you…

in Character Sheet Content Deletion August 2016

When did this happen? There were some issues with the system over the weekend and through the beginning of this week that were causing data to get lost in a bad way.

in Anything changed lately...all my Campaigns affected? August 2016 edited August 2016

You can also use the following (with your chosen width) without the side effects: .campaign-public-layout #content { max-width: 1308px !important; } This definitely needs to get fixed though, in my opinion.

in *Using* Dynamic Character Sheets August 2016

Seems to be an issue across the board - did a quick check across multiple sheets and campaigns, and it looks like DST saving is broken in general.

in DST Requests April 2016

Might do one eventually, but don't have specific plans to. I'm on the fence on 3rd edition myself (pledged it, but I'm more than a little disenchanted with the developers at this point), but if and when I end up actually playing it I'll probably put…

in DST Requests April 2016

Go for it! At this point nobody really needs permission to start working on a sheet. That might have been an issue when the system was first introduced, just to avoid redundant effort with multiple people rushing to do the same thing, but that's …

in DST Requests April 2016 edited April 2016

Ship, planet, and item sheets and loot tracking sheets are all fair game in my mind, if someone wants to take a crack at them. And for what it's worth, the unapproved sheets are generally people's half finished, usually abandoned projects. Not li…

in Changing Text to Bold with a click? March 2016

This is completely possible, but slightly complicated - both for you and for your user, who may not realize how to designate skills as Asset Skills. At a high level, here's how you'd accomplish it: # Create a hidden field for each of the skills o…

in DST Update Approval March 2016

Submitting the DST page should send email to me (and others) automatically. Haven't seen one of those come through in a while though, so if you submitted something and haven't seen a response, please drop me a PM and/or put a ticket into the system.

in DST Adoption Drive March 2016

Added some information to the main post above about ascendant time rewards for DST creators and adopters. I've got at least a couple that need new homes already, so please holler if you'd like to take a crack at this and earn some free time along th…

in CSS help March 2016

The dev kit is seriously out of date at this point, as it was created for a totally different version of the site. Most likely something in the main site's CSS is bleeding over into your sheet. Your best bet is to frame up your sheet in there, th…

in OP site update (Feb 2016) February 2016

I hadn't seen that the share buttons showed up on the character list. That's would not have been my choice, considering you generally don't want to share things you're not looking at. Tau, CSS was a good first guess based on the one symptom you h…

in OP site update (Feb 2016) February 2016 edited February 2016

I for one welcome the new sharing buttons, though I don't particularly expect they'll ever be used by me or my players. Social media is a central part of every day life these days, and I can definitely see these proving useful for groups as well as …

in Character requests February 2016

Typically the way that the and/or logic issue is solved in search is with some simple additional search logic. The default logic in the existing search is or, so in this case that would mean adding an operator (like the - operator suggested for filt…

in OP site update (Feb 2016) February 2016

Killervp, what are you having to do one page at a time to make it work? Did you have content in the posts that was clobbering it somehow?

in Character wiki items links February 2016

If I understand what you're trying for here, you want to give a different color (or whatever) to links depending on if they point to an item, a wiki page, or a character? That used to be dead simple, because links got tagged with a class depending o…
