@DungeonMasterLoki, that makes total sense. I think we can just add a new checked by default checkbox that shows on the "New Event" screen similar to the one on the "Edit Event" screen that says "Send an update notification to everyone?".

@jodie, when you get a chance, check out Menelaus again, and let me know if you see any funny business still with the HTML entities. Also, the tag is now functional.

in Obsidian Portal for clubs/communities April 2021

You could create a Campaign that is just that "Community Level" ... and not an actual "playing Campaign". With an Ascendant membership you'd have the Campaign Forums there, and then you could invite any Players you wanted. And if you wanted to sha…

@gastoff, that seems pretty plausible. I'll take a look and report back.

in surrounding adventure logs scroll with the table of contents April 2021

@gastoff, from looking at the code, it looks like the top and position and width are being set by JavaScript directly in the HTML element's style (as opposed to by CSS), when the reader scrolls past a certain point on the page. @Frak_Lou_Elmo, I don…

I'm not completely following. Can you draw the line between these items/abilities and how they are going to be troublesome?

@DungeonMasterLoki, I want to make sure we don't hijack your thread and not get your question/issue handled. What's the scenario where you want to add an event, but not send a notification? That will help with figuring out a good solution.

@Frak_Lou_Elmo, dang. Yeah that's related to the html modifications that google is doing. If you look at the url for the image (inspect), google has added a prefix to the "src". They've actually done it on the "hrefs" on the other links too ... i…

@Kallak, thanks for pointing that out! I didn't know about that option. https://textile-lang.com/doc/no-textile-processing Looks like you can also use ".textile" for an entire line. And there is a "" html tag that won't work right now, but will wo…

@jodie, @ragnarhawk, thanks for these! Those are great specific examples!

in Items - option to allow edits from everyone April 2021 edited April 2021

@Frak_Lou_Elmo, I like the idea, and I'll add it to the list. @jodie's right that it would be a significant change, so I can't see it happening soon. It would also need a better UI than just a dropdown for the PCs/NPCs because in a Campaign with e…

in Bug-ish: Plus symbols and HTML entities April 2021

@jodie, good to know that you're using it for legitimate underlining. Certainly can't break it then. : ) Even with the newline caveat, I don't see how that would stop this from being underlined and the pluses removed: Melee Weapon Attack: +8 to h…

in Bug-ish: Custom CSS using fonts with the word 'script' in April 2021

@gastoff, great point! @ragnarhawk, also a great point. Can you post an example of something that "should" work but doesn't, so I can make sure I'm solving the problem you want solved? Yeah if we can get 90% of cases handled with these specific tig…

@Frak_Lou_Elmo, you may need to delete your "subscribed" Calendar, and then "resubscribe", but it should work better now. Google strips out most of the html, but they leave in the links if there are any, so you can click on them and be taken to you…

@DM_Dennis, welcome! On this page: https://www.obsidianportal.com/dynamic_sheet_templates Currently D&D 5E only has 4 "Approved" DSTs. Those are the ones that the DST creator has said are ready to use, and have been checked and approved by us. …

@jodie This is one of those annoying clashes between Textile and normal text. http://redcloth.org/hobix.com/textile/ Search that page for "+pleasant+" So Textile is looking for a plus followed by a non-space ... and then, EVEN across new lines, look…

in Bug-ish: Custom CSS using fonts with the word 'script' in April 2021

@ragnarhawk has it. I don't have a good answer on how to get around it for this scenario though. No promises on a fix, but @jodie, can you post a snippet of css that has the font-family in it so I can make sure I'm playing around with the right sce…

in Items - option to allow edits from everyone April 2021

Thanks for the vote for this feature, @Frak_Lou_Elmo! At the bottom of the Edit view of the Item, there is a "Change Owner" drop-down, which is a list of the PCs. It doesn't currently have a "General" option though. The Item Index page doesn't curr…

@raynbow, let me know what the few things are that you're wanting to search for and I can try to help.

"show like pants" - I had to look this up ... so cool to learn a new phrase! Thanks for the screenshot! That actually probably means that OP is passing Google the wrong data ... the non-processed version instead of the processed version. I'll look…

For both of those, I would look at action/reaction. When they take advantage of these abilities, are there others that notice the abilities that would be interested in acquiring those abilities for themselves or using them to their advantage? For t…

@Orcwart, welcome! Which "Mongoose Dynamic character sheet template" do you use?

The Google Calendar feature works by subscribing your Google Calendar to the OP Calendar. This means that Google Calendar is in charge of how often it decides to check the OP Calendar, and then update itself with the events found there. My underst…

@Frak_Lou_Elmo, do you do that now? Or do you currently explicitly not do that because it would send a bunch of emails?

in Markdown in wiki pages April 2021

As long as you (or someone in your Campaign) didn't Edit and reSave the older pages, they would stay the way they are. The pages are essentially "precompiled" at the time of the Save. So only newly created pages would be processed with the new Mar…

@GM_Trent, looks like an awesome Campaign! Got it! In that case, I think you're going to need the "how to fish" explanation rather than the "here's a fish" explanation. : ) If you right-click anywhere on the white part of Character Quick Search, y…

in Markdown in wiki pages April 2021

Per page would probably be too much clutter for not enough benefit, but we already have both a "Default Editor" and "Markup Parser" setting in Settings -> Advanced. So we would probably add the option to one of those, and it would apply to the en…

@GM_Trent, if I understand the effect you're going for, I think what you're seeing is that the background image is not letting the color show through. So you need to make the background image transparent, not the body. Try this ... .character-ind…
