0x000001hidden threads on catalog view
reply

I fixed the issue where hidden threads were showing on catalog view. You still can't hide threads from catalog view but it will at least respect your settings from list view.

I noticed it still kinda flashes the hidden content at you on page refresh. I don't really feel like messing with it anymore tho so.

0x000001build guide visual aid for windows

I wrote a build guide for people who want to contribute to the working on the source code of this site. https://github.com/divSelector/divchan?tab=readme-ov-file#build-guide

Here are some visual aids for Windows users.

Notice here I am right clicking in the folder and selecting, "Open in Terminal"

It's going to download Docker images and do a lot of crazy stuff and it's eventually going to tell you "Be Patient, This Takes Awhile" as it is generating fake content for the site.

Just wait.

When it finally says "celery@2397whatever ready", that it is when it is ready to open in the browser.

One thing I noticed is that Docker Desktop for Windows does not seem to broadcast on 0.0.0.0 but you can still access the link at http://localhost:8000

When you're done working on the development site you can do CTRL + C in the terminal window to close down divchan or you can click the Stop button in Docker Desktop

If we want to put the development server back up, we don't want to generate fake content a second time since it is rather time consuming. set FAKE_CONTENT=False in the .env file.

Then the next time you do docker compose up --build, it will not take as long.

Keep in mind when you modify the code, the changes will not update on the localhost site until you bring the docker containers down and rebuild. This means you can't just hit Play in Docker Desktop.

If you have questions, lmk.

I hope you've noticed that I have been building every requested featured btw. So feel free to post others.

It was getting pretty annoying to have to delete and repost over small typos.

Now you can fix those typos with the edit button.

You still can't edit the images though so if you accidentally post the wrong images you'll still have to use delete for now

:)

so yeah /wave/ is for music in general, and /mood/ is for art in general. Perhaps this is not clear enough. I will think about how to make it more clear.

It's logging everyone on the entire site out every time I deploy an update lol. I'll fix it though

It will log you out one last time but after logging back in it should now keep your session for 30 days.

...please report to me which thread you had the problem in.

I believe I have discovered a horrible bug but I have to spend more time studying it before I will have a fix.

if my suspicions are correct, the bug should never occur again in new threads, but it may (likely) occur again in old threads.

0x000014/meta/ is unhidden
reply
metamodernism.jpg

I've been noticing that a lot of threads that belong in /meta/ are getting posted to /main/, and I was thinking about why that is. It's most likely because there aren't a lot of links to this board on the site and it may not be incredibly obvious that it's even an option.

The reason I had /meta/ hidden in the first place is I didn't want chatting about the board to clog up the space where content-based threads belong. But I've decided that at least for now, until I find a better way to direct users to this board, I'm just putting it here.

It's not entirely a bad thing to show off that there are early adopters talking about the board.

What do you think?
