How to make secrets in the forum
September 2017
I don't know of anyway to have secrets in the forum. I imagine you might be able to do something with CSS, but I've never done anything like that for my OP sites. Anything I put on the OP sites is generally for player use. If I don't want them knowi…

How to give players non-write permission?
September 2017
edited September 2017
Part of the appeal of Obsidian Portal is that the campaign management for the most part is group based, so by default, anyone who is a player in the campaign site can edit the pages. I know of no way to keep players from being able to edit the pages…

DST Requests
September 2017
I asked to have a game system added about 6 months ago, and so far, I have not heard back about it being added, so I'm not sure how quickly you'll get an answer on that. Hopefully, they'll add Starfinder as it will be a more popular system.

Starfinder
September 2017
Two members of our group have the book. Not sure if we'll be using it or not. If we do play a Starfinder game though, I know I won't be running it.

portal down?
September 2017
Yeah, just tried to visit two of my campaign sites, first one to see what adventure logs I had entered to make sure that my players would know where we had to stop a month ago and saw that it was down. Then just to be sure, visited another one of my…

I really need a way to organize the characters in my campaigns

Interesting way to handle dead characters cgregory, thanks for posting! With my western, if a PC dies, I change them to an NPC and change their status to show that they are dead.

portal down?
August 2017
Well, I've built quite a few of my own websites for my campaigns, which I've stated a few times in the past, but when I went to one of them recently, I noticed some of my code isn't working as expected. I believe the hosting company I use altered so…

Embedding videos
August 2017
See, I remembered some of the instructions! :-) I'm trying to get on so I can pull the writeups from my Deadwood Deacon campaign. I have the notes still, but it would be nice to be able to make a backup of the actual adventure writeups before we com…

Embedding videos

If I remember correctly, he mentioned something about uploading the video into the media library of the site and then embedding it from the media library the same way you would embed an image.

Just checked a few of my OP sites and they came up fine. Course, this is 2 days later so it could be that the problem has been resolved.

Thank you!
August 2017
Sorry to hear that you've had to move on to something else due to lack of activity by the powers that be here on OP, but good that you've found something else! I was making my own websites for my game before I found OP, OP is a big time saver for me…

Your DSTs are made using HTML, CSS, and JavaScript mostly. You'll want to check out the DST developers kit that you mentioned as it will give you information as to what you need to do to develope the DST. What I would suggest is to get a hold of a p…

5th Edition D&D - General Discussion
August 2017
I haven't moved on to 5e, but understand your preference to running low to mid-level games. I've moved away from level based games do to the issues when you have high level characters as far as them becoming very powerful. Moved to BRP due to how th…

Podcasts, gaming or otherwise
August 2017
I used to listen to podcasts, but haven't listened any in the past 5 or 6 years. Got the idea for my Deadwood Deacon campaign from the Dragon's Landing podcast, but it doesn't look like they're active anymore. Also thought of starting my own podcast…

Bummer, took a look at the City of Brass system over the past few days and it looks like a good alternative for OP, provided we need something other than OP in the future, but if they close...

Paragraph indents in CKEditor
July 2017
I believe all you need to do to get an indent in your adventure log is to add the following CSS in the CSS section of the advanced tab in the settings tab of the site. .post-content > p { text-indent: 20px; } I added it to my OP site and I on…

Not sure if OP allows them or not, but you could also try the data attribute. So for instance, data-name="Kassen" should work for what you are trying, that is if OP allows you to use data attributes. I'm pretty sure you won't be able to use IDs as t…

Saying goodbye

I like OP because it allows me to spend less time building a campaign site than it would take me on my personal website. That's what I was extensively using prior to coming here, but everytime I come to the OP forums and read about the issues, I wor…

Just got a 502 error, but also got an alert from CloudFlare about that particular page not being available, so it might be an issue with the CloudFlare service, but I am doubtful of that since my website, which also uses CloudFlare is up working fin…
