in Timeline July 2020

@Keryth987, this, where it is right now, actually looks like a pretty good spot for it. The topic name is "Timeline". So anyone that asks about Timelines, we'll just point them to this thread.

@twiggyleaf, sounds great, whatever works for y'all. No pressure. I must also really commend your active participation on these "forums", or as is now the preferred nomenclature, within the "community". (I didn't see anyone commenting on the ch…

in Secrets feature July 2020

@Conan_Lybarian, that's interesting. I'm not sure we want to build an entire tagging feature for secrets specifically as that would make the interface a bit cluttered. But what if we added a "beginning snippet" of the secret to the Secrets table? …

Hey @twiggyleaf, there's a beta feature called "public forums" that lets the GM choose specific forum threads to make public. It's sort of tailor made for play by post games. We're using it here for the Fat Pig campaign: https://tobuyafatpig.obsidi…

in Trying to save Character Sheets as PDFs July 2020

The current architecutre/design of the DSTs is what prevents them from printing directly in the browser. We took one swing at fixing this so far, but the hit didn't land. So we need to level some stuff up before we can take another swing at it. In…

@DungeonMasterLoki, beta testing interest for that feature noted!

in Systems to add to Game Systems July 2020

@DungeonMasterLoki, can you elaborate? What would setting your Campaignt to "Various Systems" do? Or are you saying you want to be able to pick multiple systems for the same Campaign?

Thanks for the request! Try it now and let me know if it's working for you or not. I added it to Insert Character, Insert Wiki, and See All Pages.

Welcome! Thanks for the requests! Non-square Maps Non-square maps is definitely on the list to do. The interim "hack" is to open the map in a drawing program and add a solid bar of black/white/color to the bottom (or right side, if it's taller th…

Sounds pretty cool! I'll be interested to see what you end up doing with it!

in Dragon Week! July 2020

I was making the suggestion with the idea that the "watchers" would be NPCs and be a "lever" you as the GM could pull to ramp up excitement/pressure, and as you said, and not have to nerf the dragons. But it sounds like you might be considering havi…

Nice! "Welcome to the greatest display of entertainment in all the Astral Sea!" What if that had an actual in game consequence/role? Similar to the Hunger Games thing where patrons could send the contestants gifts in the game to help them. Then may…

in Campaign Member Specific CSS July 2020

@cgregory, yep, wiki pages, adventure logs, any part of the campaign actually. Anything that you can affect with your Campaign's Custom CSS will have these classes so you can affect just a specific Player or Players.

Hey @Augurer, thanks for the feedback! That's a pretty decent solution for the moment with the tools as they are. If you have multiple topics on the same page, you could just separate out the topics into multiple Player Secrets with the same Playe…

in Any tips for Tooltips? July 2020

Happy to help! Cool, the HTML is looking good now. The issue now is that the JavaScript Inserts (like Tooltips) are an Ascendant feature and the GM of this Campaign is not Ascendant, so if the GM of the Campaign upgrades to Ascendant, the hovers wi…

in Any tips for Tooltips? July 2020

I played with this a little more and it looks like an even better fix is to put a space before and after the "_10_" in the second tooltip, so it looks like "[tooltip-title] _10_ [end-tooltip-title]". If you do that, then you can have as much space o…

in Any tips for Tooltips? July 2020

This looks like it's a bug in the parser related to textile tables. The quick fix for your situation is to remove all of the space after the last "|" so that the cursor is sitting right up next to it (no new lines) before you hit Save. You'll know …

in SECRETS section is amazing! July 2020 edited July 2020

@Keryth987, I think this is what you're looking for. It hides the "Secrets" tab for everyone in your Campaign. If you only want it to hide for yourself (the GM), but still be visible to the Players, let me know and I can tweak this: .campaign-das…

in Absolute Killer Feature: Backlinks (What links here?) June 2020

@jdale, that's a great point! For this particular scenario, I think you could look at what other pages were recently updated in your stream because those pages would have had to be updated to refer to the new page. But it would definitely be more …

in DST Data stored with Archived Versions? June 2020

These are the kind of bugs/design-flaws that make me feel sick. I'm sorry you lost data. I can't get that data back, but I tried to put a fix in place so this won't happen again. I made a change so that if you Edit a Character that has a DST from a…

in DST Data stored with Archived Versions? June 2020

I just checked the database, and I'm sorry to say the Archived Versions for Characters do not store any of the DST information, so there's no way to retrieve it. That might change in the future to where we do start storing the DST information in the…

in What is the default order for All Campaigns listing? June 2020

@Keryth987 pointed out that the Default Order put some Campaigns front and center that hadn't been updated for YEARS, and so it gave the impression that OP is dead. So I changed the Default Order to be "Most Popular that have content updated in the…
