Cirque Emojis

• Though our friends have gone away for now, we will still remember them with these new emojis/smileys!
  
  • 26 New Emojis / Smileys have been added and can be found under the Tent emoji!
    
  
  

[Item] Update

• The second Shaggy Bob has now been renamed to Flapper Bob!
  
  • 
    
  
  

Post Format Previews

• The post format previews were acting strangely and in some cases not working at all, they have now been fixed.
  
  • To see the changes please CTRL F5 when in the forum settings page.
    
  
  

Further Inventory Tweaking

• Multi set Items will now order their poses via name for consistency.
  
  • This only applies to multi set items, you will not see the same thing in consumables, for example.
    
  
  

Need more cowbell poses

• Due to some new items having extreme amount of poses, the inventory popups will now stretch to a max of 6 item poses per row.
  
  • Example: The Clown EI item from this event has over 70 poses!
    
  • CTRL F5 / Clear Cache via Browser Settings may be needed before changes show for you!
    
  • Constance still causing trouble even after being exorcised... smh
  
  

Inventory Item Popovers

• Added max height value and scrolling to item popovers.
  
  • This should hopefully address some users not being able to see and use all poses of an item if it has many available.
    
  • CTRL + F5 / Clear Cache via Browser Settings may be needed before changes show for you!
    
  
  

Don't quote me on this...

• Quoting a user now notifies them that they have been quoted in a post.
  
  • Much like mentioning a user, but with a slightly different notification text.
  
  

Don't Mention It!

• Mentions will now work properly from posts sent via the New Reply page.
  
  
• Mentions will now work properly no matter what comes after them.
  
  • Previously if there were any non alphanumeric values after, they would not send, this has been fixed.
    
  
  
• Any mentions that are inside quote tags will not be resent.
  
  • Previously if you quoted someone who pinged users, you would also ping those users again, now fixed.
    
  
  

New Reply and Topic Updating

• Posting via the New Post / Reply page will now correctly update the topic.
  
  • This means the topic should now bump up and show you as the last poster.
    
  
  

Carnival Foods - 50% Off!

• Carnival Foods price changed from 150 Tickets -> 75 Tickets.
  
  • Sorry! It was supposed to be listed as 75 to begin with!
    
  • Unfortunately due to lack of shop logs we can't refund those who purchased it at double the price.
    
  
  

Code BBCode Re-enabled

• The [code] tag is now available to use once more.
  
  • Youtube tags are still being worked on before they are re enabled.
    
  
  

Temporarily Disabled Code and Youtube BBCodes

• The CODE and YOUTUBE tags have been temporarily disabled due to layout breaking issues.
  
  • They will be re-enabled once I fix the issue
    
  
  

Post actions, BBCode buttons and Previews?!

Ho-boy we have a large update here so I'll be breaking it down in this post.
If you've been wondering why I've been a bit quiet for the last few weeks you now know why!
These updates have changed quite a bit around the forums and site and though we've bug tested some may still linger.
If you find any bugs to do with this update, I urge you to post them over here!
Bugs posted in that thread will be much more visible to me and brought to my attention sooner.
Lets hope you don't come across any though.

Now that the big disclaimer has ended, time to get to the meat and bones of the update.

Post Actions

• Die Rolling!
  
  • You can roll up to 5 sets of die on a single post with unique sides for each.
    
  • You may roll up to a 100 sided die.
    
  • You may roll up to 20 times per unique side of die.
    
  • You will be shown the range of what number you can get total while you're entering in the die roll sides and rolls.
    
  
  
• Random Number Generation
  
  • You can generate a random number between 0 and 2,147,483,647.
    
  • For ranges between 0 - 99,999 an image will be shown. Higher ranges will not show an image (it'd stretch the page too much.)
    
  
  
• How to use post actions
  
  • Due to not wanting to squash everything together, the post actions are not in the quick reply box.
    
  • Instead - we have a brand new "New Reply/Post" page, which will have the post actions.
    
  • You will find them in a drop down select box next to our brand new BBCode Buttons.
    
    • Once you select what post action you would like to use - a box will appear under the smilies on the left. This box will contain all the inputs for the post action - and will be how you control what the post action does!
      
  • Once you trigger an action it is irreversible, this is to prevent cheating/scams.

BBCode Buttons

• The BBCode List has been removed - and instead replaced with shiny new BBCode buttons!
  
  • BBCode buttons will track where you are in the text box so it will insert the BBCode where you were!
    
  • Highlighting something in the box and then pressing a button will either:
    
    • Wrap the BBCode around the highlighted text OR
      
    • Use the highlighted text as the parameter instead of the default parameter.
      
    • Parameters are things such as the color in [color], url in [url], username in [quote] etc..
      
    
    
• Please note that improvements to the BBCode system in general is something I'm still looking into.
  
• This will not be the final update for BBCodes and any suggestions for improvements will be noted down too!

Post Previewing!

• You can now preview posts in the new post page, new topic page and edit post page.
  
  • For the quick reply box - pressing preview will take you to the new post page w/ all of your data saved!
    
  • This can also be a handy way to get to the new post page if you're at the bottom of the page.
    

---

New Post/Reply Page

• The new post/reply page is dedicated to posting without using quick reply.
  
  • The main way to get to the new reply/post page is through the "New Reply" button at the top of topics.
    
  • The quick reply box will still remain, however new features added to posting will be only put into this new page.
    
  • This is because having a singular page for posting allows more room to add features and previews.
    
  • Using the quick reply preview will bring you here with your message saved, so don't worry about losing it!

View Topic Layout Changes

• To give room for post actions the posts layout has been altered.
  
  • Pray I don't alter it any further.
    
  • Tried to keep to the original look as much as possible.
    
  • Action buttons [Friend, PM, Trade, Ignore] have been moved to the bottom of the avatar.
    
  • Horizontal rule to break up posts slightly better so people don't get confused on which action is whose.
    
  • New Reply Button at the top of the page, limited pagination to 5 pages each side of current.

Trades are back and better!

• Sorry about that little hiccup there! They're back now though, only left to the shop for some milk.
  
  
• Trades will now show the thumbnail icon of the actual item itself being sent.
  
  • This means that common items will show up as their coloured version rather than the greyscale.
    
  • ( No more greyscale lobsters in your trades from okios for example. )
    
  • Due to a large amount of Appearance items lacking unique thumbnails for their coloured variants, they will show the group icon still.
    
  
  
• Trade tabs will no longer randomise each time you submit an item to the trade.
  
  • These tabs should now follow the same strict ordering as you find in your inventory.
