This is a thread to document any updates and changes that the park is currently undergoing, so that our members know what new features we have rolling out and can better document any bugs or issues that these changes result in.
04/14/2024
- Added a sidebar for the forum, courtesy of the Sidebar Redux plugin.
- Removed the horizontal scrolling news bar at the top of the forum, because it was not interacting with the sidebar well.
- Added a "Recent Threads" section in the new sidebar, which documents new posts in forum threads through the
Recently Updated Threads Sidebar plugin. It will show the last ten posts on the forum. (It's currently almost empty because it only begins to populate after its installation. Alas.) - Added a "Help Staff List" section in the new sidebar, which lists all the current staff on NNP. It includes links to their profiles, and each staff member's preferred pronouns. This section can be collapsed by clicking on the "Help Staff List" header.
- Added a moonphase tracker to the new sidebar, because it's fun and a throwback to older therian forums who would sometimes do the same.
- Added the Quick Reply BBCode Buttons plugin - now BBCode is available on the quick replies in forum threads.
- Added the Collapsible Categories plugin - if you click on the title of a forum board (i.e. "Welcome Center") you can minimize it on your screen! This plugin will remember which boards you have minimized even when you close the webpage, and it will alert you to new posts and threads that have been posted onto the board after you've minimized it.
- Adjusted the forum width from 75% to 80%, to help accommodate the new sidebar.
- Added a header image to the Dark+ forum theme. Reminder that forum themes can be changed by clicking the T button in the lower left-hand corner!
- Removed user ability to add attachments. We've got a finite amount of storage space available on the forum, so users will have to link to files they've hosted elsewhere: I personally recommend Github or Filegarden.
