in Why weren't Delphini, Kai and Nina made Noble's after helping save The Entire Empire 4 times? March 2022

Maybe the other nobles are concerned that if they can save the Empire when they aren't nobles ... then if they were made nobles, they could take over. So they are kept intentionally limited.

in Assuming his private armies elsewhere suggest a force that would threaten Erinn/The Earls Earldom March 2022

I don't think I know the specifics well enough to give a specific answer here. But if this is the "send off" and they aren't planning to play these characters anymore, then I would look for things that the characters value a lot ... something senti…

in Custom JavaScript March 2022

@ragnarhawk, those are interesting ideas ... but I'm wary of opening a way for members to forget that they are allowing the JavaScript to run when they are later "just" Friending or Favoriting. So, I'd still want members to explicitly choose to all…

@Keryth987, "Perhaps it should simply be a checkbox on the profile, like the whole newsletter and email notifications thing?" I appreciate that feedback! I don't think it can be made that simple without opening too much risk of members getting hack…

in How to Use the New Javascript March 2022

Yeah, just like Custom CSS. (Let me know if I'm not fully understanding your question?) Just noting, "Java" and "JavaScript" are two separate programming languages. So, if you were googling for some "Java" code to show a popup, that code wouldn't …

in Who would get the title?, the original 1st born? or the 1 that's technically now the oldest child? March 2022

Sounds like the start of a war if neither of the siblings wants to back down ... with other nobles supporting whichever "legitimate heir" they think will most benefit them. Unless the kingdom has a specific law for this situation, wouldn't this be s…

in Blocking another OP USer March 2022

The straight forward way to fully block an OP member is to change the Campaign to be Private or Friends. That will stop the OP member from seeing/reading the Campaign. Beyond that, if the Campaign is public, I can't think of a way to block them fro…

@nuadaria ... the HTML encoding should be fixed now ... across the entire Community Forums!! (That has bothered me for SO long, but it only just occurred to me how to fix it after you commented on it. Thank you! And I actually used the Custom Jav…

in Custom JavaScript March 2022

@Keryth987, I think I thought of another example that might resonate with you. A bit back you said you said you wanted every Wiki Page in your Campaign to have an "Edit This Page" button like the Front Page does, but other members didn't want that.…

in Custom JavaScript March 2022

@Keryth987, there's a new text box on the Campaign Settings Advanced tab. Any JavaScript that you want to run on your Campaign, you can put there. This is fairly similar to the way Custom CSS works. But JavaScript can do pretty much anything, lik…

in DST Requests March 2022 edited March 2022

@Omeri, Sounds good on working online! For the "dsf_player", the code automatically replaces whatever is in the "span" with the Player. So you can put "NPC" in the span as the default, and then if there is a Player, it will replace it.

in Checkboxes not working for me March 2022

@jodie, Chainsaw fixed up the csx_edit (and other code too), so the standard checkboxes should work now (even without the work around code above). Let me know if you're still seeing any issues.

I assume that at some time in the past someone must have asked for a feature request to have a toggle button for the filter to switch between AND / OR tags? Yes, I think it's been requested before. But adding a visible switch would complicate the…

in player characters on the side of the front page March 2022

So there is no way to pull that entire panel from the dashboard and show it on the front page without a screenshot? What prevents data that shows on the dashboard from showing on a page? You can definitely do this in a fairly straight forward way wi…

in What would Aleita do to her former adopted parents upon learning shes the countries rightful queen? March 2022

I'm not sure I follow the scenarios totally, but this seems like a small enough edge case that the Queen can declare whatever she wants, or just not create a law for it at all and let them take it to a court (or back to the Queen herself) if anythin…

in What would Aleita do to her former adopted parents upon learning shes the countries rightful queen? March 2022

The "means testing" was meant to cover all of the scenarios. If the adopting parents are "easily" able to afford caring for the child for 19 years, then they should be able to also care for her 2 additional children for just 3 years. I'm leaning h…

"because it would require the visitor extra steps of accepting custom java." That's helpful to know! Can you elaborate on that? What is your concern with that? could this be replicated on the front page without custom java? Sort of? I think you …

in What would Aleita do to her former adopted parents upon learning shes the countries rightful queen? March 2022

If the original adopted child gets to determine when she is 19 whether or not the adopting parents get the reward, then the adopting parents will probably want to keep the 16 year old her happy and also take care of her children. I would think there…
