in Feature Prioritization May 2013

I guess the reason I want this isn't to sway your opinion, but so a) you can have a better idea of what the community wants, and b) to have some formal way to keep track of feature requests. This forum doesn't seem like a very good one. I can re-dum…

I think this goes well with my Navbar suggestion in "Good Designers Borrow":http://forums.obsidianportal.com/comments.php?DiscussionID=2998. One potential issue I have with the demo is that it's not clear what to do if I just want to go to a page li…

To MediaWiki: I agree that OP is more intuitive than MediaWiki. MediaWiki's Talk pages, editing syntax, and general interface are far more confusing than OP. However, it does several things that I wish OP had, such as Page History (we have that, but…

Oh, yeah, I am not expecting natural editing right off. It's my pet feature, but it's probably the most work. I'll be gleeful if we actually make December. And as to Textile: Yeah, I went back and read your comments on the subject on Kickstarter…

Hm. Your crowdsourced maps idea is an interesting one, but I'm not sure how it would work. Could you elaborate a little more?

Well, Maps is already scheduled to be fixed; any other areas you had in mind?

So here's a question, Shammond: Is it Textile specifically you want, or would an HTML view like Blogger has do?

in Adventure and Campaign Publishing May 2013

Do we want a talk page or just a commenting function like on Adventure logs, open to all? Seems like the latter would be far more intuitive.

I like! I'm not especially worried about monetizing: I just want the community to be able to see what I've done without exposing my players to it. Therefore, I propose the following feature that I've been dying for for years: Allow anyone *except my…

Actually, I've seen at least a couple of comments on the "Kickstarter site":http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/252020431/obsidian-portal-reforged/posts/456842/comments (and "one here":http://forums.obsidianportal.com/comments.php?DiscussionID=3011)…

Screencap your existing pic quick, GTB! Then you can re-upload it with the slash as your profile image when the slashes go away. Wait...how did you get a "Jerk" slash? Oh, you did it yourself. Confused me there for a moment. Neat.

"LOTRO":http://lotro.com has something similar: If you've been a member for more than a year, you get a special frilly border around your character portrait in-game.

+1. This goes along with a much-requested feature: Automatic tables of content. I've long wanted to use the h#. tags properly, but I end up having to just choose the level that gives me the text size I want.

Blogger x5. Blogger seems to me to be the gold standard to measure against in this arena. (If I've overdone the graphics, let me know and I'll move all but one under a link.) h4. WYSIWYG editor: !https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/46737319/Foru…

Excellent. I have a better suggestion for Stretch Goal #5 (besides the fact that "better" is misspelled): "Modify the editor to show exactly what the page will look like when saved—in other words, WYSIWYG (What You See Is What You Get) editing."

WYSWYG editing by leaps and bounds. I spend far too much time as it is clicking Save to actually use the "Adventure Plan":http://www.obsidianportal.com/campaign/sydarksun-private/adventure-log I just created, then clicking Edit to change some error …

Perhaps a border around the profile pic instead of a slash?

This isn't in the Textile reference, so I think it should be added here: Use @---@ (three dashes) to make a horizontal rule.

in How to Make Maps for Your Campaign (For Free!) April 2012

That's...pretty cool. Can you then set areas that if you click on them, it will zoom in to another map? Anyway, please check out my implementation and give feedback if you have any.

in How to Make Maps for Your Campaign (For Free!) April 2012

On that note, I've done something with my campaign maps you may find interesting. I've long dreamed of having drill-down maps on OP, kind of like you can do with Google Earth: Campaign Map! Zoom in...Region map! Zoom in farther...City map! All th…

Except that this board doesn't work the same way that the wiki pages do and I can't figure out how to make -- show up as two hyphens. Hmph. It works in wiki pages though.

in New Feature: Player Secrets July 2011

The textile is "p. ", not ".p", so that could be your problem. And I'm not sure what you're talking about with the Textile site being dead. It works fine for me. I'm also not sure what you mean with Player Secrets not loading properly. Again, I'…

Hmph. Same thing happened to me, Llowellen, then I got two players because of it when I finally managed to sign up (not immediately, over the period of a few months, but still...).

Here's something I think will be a useful addition to the FAQ: "A way to convert Word documents to Textile":http://www.obsidianportal.com/campaign/sydarksun/wikis/word-to-textile-conversion.

So...can this be used in such a way that you just put in the current and target XP values and it just works?

Let me add to RedJen's idea: When the GM makes a new Player Secret on a character, that character's player should be selected by default.

in New Feature: Player Secrets June 2011

+1 to RedJen's notion. Also, when I open a Player Secret, I expect it to stay open. It closes when I open another one, making it difficult to read one and write another...
