I also noticed that you removed the CSS selector in individual thread views. Personally, it seems both the Admin options and Style selector are a bit of a hindrance to the overall layout. Don't get me wrong -- I think the drop-in Style capability is fantastic-- but it just doesn't seem to play nice with the current 2ch page design.
The thing is, don't most or all major browsers these days allow users to change CSS styles from within the application itself? I know Firefox does, at least. Maybe the selector isn't really necessary.

Not sure, that would require a database redesign and I don't want to force people with a current install to do that. Also, it seems something like that would work better for a whole new script, properly designed around the idea.
> config.pl parameter for a generic image that takes the place of a deleted image (ie, Hello Kitty)
Ah, good, been meaning to do, forgot about.
> Fine-grained banning options that let you choose whether or not the user is blocked from reading a board, posting to a board, or both. Another parameter defines the duration of his ban ('0' for permaban), and another defines a reason/message displayed when the user tries to access a board.
None of those seem useful to me, because I'm of the opinion that bans are to prevent abuse, not to punish users.
> Replace HTML error pages with dialog box equivalents using JavaScript.
Would require a bunch of hidden-iframing and such. I'd like to do a complete re-design full of javascript trickery, and this idea would fit better in such a context... That is to say, I'm lazy and the current version is robust, and I'm loathe to go around changing it, since it would introduce new problems.
> Kill user deletion. I can't see any case for when it'd have constructive uses.
On image boards, it has a very definite use - people do fuck up and post in the wrong thread, or create new threads. It's better if they can clean up after themselves. In Kareha, you can already disable deletion.
> Conversion to mod_perl?
As far as I know, it should work in mod_perl already, modulo some prototype bugs. I'll try to get those fixed.
> The standalone thumbnailer project is a great idea too. As a suggestion, how about adding functionality to also read and thumbnail document files like TXT, PDF, and DOC?
That would require a LOT of code, especially when you don't want external dependencies, so it's a bit iffy.

I meant only using the extra post for autoclose situations where the thread has exceeded the defined postcount limit in config.pl. As for the implementation, couldn't you just have Kareha use post_stuff() and (somehow) replace the timestamp with "Over XXXX Thread"?
>>216
I remember at least one or two boards on 2ch that used it, though I can't remember which (moon language and such, you see).
I apologize for the dumb question I made at the end of >>218. I forgot that Kareha permasages (not closes) a thread after the limit is exceeded, so there's no need for a hypothetical 1001th post anyway! orz
Yes, it's throwing Javascript errors for me if I use that character. Gonna look into that some more.
Thanks. I did it the hard way and put in the proper transformations everywhere so filenames can be kept intact, though.
> partition to kill secure tripcodes

> add functionality for multiple uploads in one post.
I think this was decided against before.
You could add entire thread links to either the "num" or "posts" column in subback.
> Would it maybe make sense to make a separate thread creation page?
Considering that the ratio of users who start new threads to those who don't is pretty small on most message boards, I think it does.
A seperate page could also be used to put a more visible disclaimer/set of rules, as a seperate page with a different layout is likely to generate more attention from the user. Stuff that can be put there also wouldn't clutter up the frontpage.
I don't think this is an urgent matter, though.
How about listing what dmpk2k or you have done already?
> Why not make None or Text Art the default?
Because >>309. I don't want to implement half of WakabaMark for the None mode, and without it you don't get stuff like quote highlighting.
> Also, can you make >> links into anchors('#') when you're on the reply/entire thread page, especially in Wakaba?
Er, that is exactly how Wakaba works right now? And Kareha can't change the contents of posts dynamically, so it'll never do it.
> how about having a third party create extensions for those browsers and freeing up the real estate on the actual page?
What's with this obsession on removing the CSS options? It's a single line, and some of us find it useful.
Real estate? Scroll down.

forgot to add that turning the CSS selector and Admin functions into drop-down menus and moving them to the right side of board and thread title headers would remove that top bar entirely on the front page.
>>69
The sage seems a bit off...
So, I made the All threads page a lot fancier. Might need some shift-reloading to get the proper CSS.
Is this about done, besides the admin bit? I'm getting a bit tired and distractions are looming to the left and right.
Also, for multiple board installations, use symlinks to allow you to keep just one installation of the main code files.
>>182
That's not what I meant. What I meant was: If people want to change keywords to something, let them figure out at appropriate places what this something should be. Whether it should be "down", "stay_down" or "stay_put" is not really a discussion belongs here, not at this point anyway.
You can't document easter eggs! That's crazy talk!
Also, I find it insanely more annoying to write text in five-line tunnel vision than whatever annoyance might be caused by a comment box that expands.
This is the obligatory encoding test ... in <code>

U .U Hey, I just noticed this: where did the admin link go? Or are you working on a separate interface already? :D
It's also more markup when even the existing one isn't working as well as it should.
All right, new version installed. This one has a bunch of layout changes, and some big changes in the CSS, so you'll need to make sure the CSS is loaded by shift-reloading. Also, fixing all the CSS files was a huge pain in the ass. Have a look around to see if there are any obvious mistakes, but be gentle, because this has given me a headache.
Also, I couldn't be arsed to fix Amber, since it was just a joke in the first place.
