Having some serious issues posting big files
Thumbnails should be 250x250px or something
also this
>>>/w/68
>>>/w/103
>>3
Okay, thank you.

Some optimizations of image thumb conversion have been made that seemed to be what was causing the site to slow down. Please do some more testing and see if those that you tried will work now.

Thumb sizes have now been changed to 255.

Side catalog is now hidden by default
Quick reply no longer snaps to the post number
Also, thumbnails from before the 255px change are upscaled. It looks like shit but there isn't really anything i can do
>>8
To the right of the post? I think it was an undesired feature and has been disabled.

>>9
It's okay, the sooner it was taken care of the better. :3
Thanks you for all the fixes, posting feels very smooth now and I can finally post big files w/o issues, good job.

You probably know all this but would be cool being able to change theme, hour, having preview for vids in the quick reply or at least the name of the file, also the quick reply should remember its position instead of going to the top-right every time, also when clicking the number of a post to make a new tab it should jump to that post.

>change theme
We plan to rewrite the global.css file completely. There are additional themes but right now it reads global.css>our-yotsubaB.css file and because of that, any other themes that come with lynxchan, don't display properly or look nice, so it's been disabled. We plan to have more themes available, we want to create a nice dark theme too. We also have to make the site's css more optimal for mobile devices as well. So we got a lot to do, visually. :3

Alternatively, anyone can apply their own themes/css by clicking on Settings on the top bar boardlist, select CSS and paste it there. :3

>having preview for vids in the quick reply or at least the name of the file
We will probably do something like pic related.

>the quick reply should remember its position
We can work on that. :3

>when clicking the number of a post to make a new tab it should jump to that post.
We also want to do this and make clicking the reply button jump to the new post. :)
>>20
>Alternatively, anyone can apply their own themes/css by clicking on Settings
that's cool, but don't forget to add an option to change the timezone plz

>We will probably do something like pic related.
yeah good enough

>We also want to do this and make clicking the reply button jump to the new post.
hmmm you mean the last post of the thread? I'd say the reply button is fine the way it is now, if you want to go directly to the bottom just click on it since you see the last 5 posts.

I noticed the jump works if you click the "No." next to the number which is nice, but the number should jump AND open the quick reply BUT only if you are opening a new tab or going into a thread from outside.

(you)s are very important too, keep in mind this community is based on circlejerking and (you)s is what feeds our lust for attention.

Also as mod would be cool to see all the posts listed by IP like 8ch does.

that's all for now, thanks :3

Tripcodes with the "\" character in it don't work properly.
is it possible to grab thumbnails for videos from a little bit forward from the beginning, a lot of videos begin in black and that's all the thumbnail shows, I know it's not a priority but it would be cool imo.

and it is still not possible to upload files larger than 20MB.
>>39
Yeah, we noticed. We will have it fixed soon. :3

>>41
>thumbnails
I think ffmpeg creates the thumbnails, I think. We just have to tell it to choose a frame from the middle of the video or something.

>it is still not possible to upload files larger than 20MB
Okay, thanks for telling us. :)

would be cool having smol pineas as icons, also tripcodes should have a different color.
>>48
Yeah, we haven't done the favicon yet obviously. lel

someone should post a pinea one for us to use.

we are still planning to make the (You)s.

What color should the tripcodes be?

flashing rainbow

when you hover over a post link, half of it is hidden under the bottom of the browser. can it be moved so it tries to fit in the whole window?
>>62
>when you hover over a post link, half of it is hidden under the bottom of the browse
Yeah, when you hover on a post number, the top left corner of the post appears to the right of the cursor, we need it to appear on the bottom left.
>>62
it is something we still have to do. :3
Loving all the improvements you guys are doing. And dark theme looks great!
>>72
Thank you! :)
Can you guys make an option to run off rainbow text? It uses a lot of cpu/gpu
(268.48 KB 611x572 pepe-pimenova.jpg)
>>115
Here you go, this turns off the animations themselves, add which ever you need to your Settings>CSS:


/* tripcode color */
span.tripcode {
animation: none!important;
color: #228854!important;
}

/* rainbow text */
span.rainbowtext {
animation: none!important;
}


/* party hard text */
.autismText {
animation: none!important;
}


under the animation: none!important; attributes, you can add something like color: red; similar to the tropcode one, if you want. Anyway, I hope this helps you. :)

The quick reply textbox on mobile is unusable because of its positioning.

When hovering on replies on posts the preview of the mentioned post doesn't show up properly if there isn't enough space under the post that contains it.
I would suggest setting it so that if there isn't enough space the preview is shown above the last post.
>>299
>mobile and quick reply
Yeah, unfortunately there is a lot of features that do not work or display properly on mobile devices. The creator of the frontend/user interface of this engine seemed to not have bothered with optimizing the frontend for mobile devices. It's still something we need to work on in the future. If you can try to use desktop version or an app that will allow you to view the site in desktop mode, that may help but I don't know, it's just an idea.

>hovering on replies
We are aware of this very annoying flaw as well it's still on to js todo list.

>I would suggest setting it so that if there isn't enough space the preview is shown above the last post.
Yes. :3 The problem is not just post going off the bottom of the page, but hover on replies towards the top of the page may cut off at the top of the page as well. It's something, we still plan to fix. We are usually always updating stuff like these or adding new features, we just haven't gotten around to it. Sorry for the inconvenience. >_<
>>301

Thanks for the quick reply, sorry for the late post and keep up the good work, you're doing great! :)
the server clock is 5 minutes fast and it's triggeing my autism
Every so often when i reply to a post, then have to click back to correct a spelling, it will jump into the thread post # I am replying to and start my corrective typing in the middle of, and ruin the post # I was trying to reply to.. Dunno if anyone else experiences this..
Mobile, mostly. If that helps.
And thank y'all for all you do :)

Hey, can you contribute changes back to Kohlnumbra? For example the tooltip fix.
>>46
Also:

You need to uncomment https://gitgud.io/LynxChan/lynxchanaddon-kc/blob/master/torIps.js#L34 for post history to be working for anonymous users.

Captcha is not working, possibly due to a imagemagick problem.
>>47
There are some hardcoded things related to Kohlchan, for example the height for the index.html image or the sidebar/topbar/bottombar, but we can work together to keep upstream as clean as possible. Can you join #kc-dev on EUIRC so that we can discuss how to continue the development of KohlNumbra and KC-Addon? I'd prefer both versions to mutually benefit from each other in the future by keeping merge conflicts at a minimum instead of going our own paths.

Thanks.
Maybe other people have reported this, but I'm noticing that the Javascript that would scale images to the width of the browser window doesn't seem to be working anymore.

can the pic upload list be scrollable? once i get have more than a few pics, the 'Reply' button is below the bottom of the page

pls, or someone suggest a custom css to fix it
>>51

.imgExpanded {
max-width: 100%;
}


That's how it was before, but it got removed for some mysterious reason.

I'm not sure what that did, but it didn't do that. I used this and it works for me:


div#selectedDivQr {
max-height: 200px;
overflow: scroll;
}
Is tor posting fixed yet?
(826.40 KB 1000x1504 screenshot.png)
The CSS for the image post area seems to have changed recently. Now, all of the images in a post are grouped together horizontally. This causes issues if one is browsing the site in a browser window that is taller than it is wide (or, is browsing the site on a phone) since when clicking an image, the javascript will scale the image to be *smaller* than it was before it was clicked! (e.g. the image on the far left in my screenshot) Can we go back to the old CSS for the images in a post, or does someone know of a CSS setting I can use to change this behavior?
(727.43 KB 1000x904 Screenshot from [...].png)
(2.20 MB 1000x1707 Screenshot from [...].png)
>>56 For comparison, this is how it "should" be (and how it was up until a few days ago, I think). Note how the images are "packed" to fit into the browser window, instead of all being grouped horizontally, and how clicking on one image re-does the layout.

Also, I get connection failed when I try to post images via tor now the gestapo will visit me ;___;
(111.50 KB 1080x1080 61559129_227[...].jpg)
>>56 >>57 Yeah, I know what you mean. I was concerned it'd be an issue on mobile or taller screens. Thanks for mentioning it. The reason why it did that was because I was trying to get filenames to appear above the image while the image is opened/expanded, like they're supposed to be (the opposite of what is happening in your third screenshot). But anyways, it has been fixed now. Let us know if there are any more issues. Thank you. :3 >>58 Waifuist on Tor needs more work, we haven't looked much into Tor posting since going back to the old frontend. But we will. Also gestapo should leave you alone as cp is not allowed. ;-;
>>59 in my case i have been using tor because my university has been investigating and punishing people who visit problematic websites i don't know if this place is such a website to them, but i don't want to find out, either
>>57 Why will you post this satanic things here. Please do not... It is no good
The Max file size is still 30MB for me, despite it in the description saying that it's 40MB.
>>73 Sorry about the late reply. It should be fixed now. :)

Would it be possible to add shortcut links (preferably to the catalog) to each one of the board at the top? So I don't always to click on "boards".
>>113 one of the features still missing im sure it will get added back when the devs get around to it
>>114 Thanks! Could you also add the screens on the catalog-screen. That's my favorite view and the links are still missing there.
I'm getting random 500 errors on thumbnails. It's been like this for a few weeks at least.
Can you check your email on [email protected]? It's kinda important.
What happened to the delete option? The dropdown disappeared.
>Connection failed. I am regulary getting this error message.
Any prediction when the technical issues are finally solved around here? I have always getting error messages in the last few days/weeks and have to many attempts to load a page or post content.
hi admin <3
Can you fix the onion?
You should apply the latest commits in LynxChan somehow: https://gitgud.io/LynxChan/LynxChan/-/commits/master This is rather urgent.
