Aquadragon Larsen 8 years ago updated by Digby (Community Manager) 7 years ago 1

I know you can change the display name but the name with the @ at the beginning iam sure I wrote @aquadragonlarsen and it's cut the end off it so it now says @aquadragonlarse , Is there any way to fix this?

Answer

The user's name was changed to "Aqualarsen" so that it will fit the length requirements.

Automated Error Reporting

HelzimGiger 8 years ago updated by Digby (Community Manager) 7 years ago 1

When I was trying submit a new piece of art, I was getting an issue where I would click "Save" but nothing would happen. Through process of elimination, I found out that Furry Network appears to have a 50 character limit for titles, as once I brought it below that length it saved without issue. Is there a way to make it so that rather than getting a null response, some text is printed notifying the user of why their content gets rejected?

Answer

There is now a popup at the top of the window that tells the reason why something cannot be saved.

Add a drop down filter for finding submissions.

shimmerthewolf 8 years ago updated by Digby (Community Manager) 7 years ago 1

And average user may see searching by tags as "too difficult" or "too much work". A lot just want a simple 'point and click' to get to the latest submissions of that said category.

Answer

Design would either need to go with tags or with a drop-down filter. Tags allow more individuality with searches and allow users to have their own categories. A mix of drop-down filters and tags could get messy. We will be staying with tags.

Windows size 1024px broken in Firefox

Richard K Niner 8 years ago updated by Digby (Community Manager) 7 years ago 1

On windows set to 1024px wide, a horizontal scrollbar appears on Firefox (Chrome switches to mobile layout). Interestingly, widening the window to 1025px triggers full size, so this appears to be a pair of bugs, both in an if statement check and possible incorrect layout CSS...


Answer

The site has undergone some significant changes, and this problem has been resolved. The site appears to scale correctly at a 1024px width on Firefox.

"Posts" text box moved to the top of a user's own profile. Why?

Star Seer 8 years ago updated by Digby (Community Manager) 7 years ago 1

Okay, I can understand moving the Posts textbox to its own location, but why was it moved to the top of the user's own profile?


Image 76


When I was trying to find it, I thought I'd run into a new "Shouts" feature. Then I checked other user profiles, and when I didn't see the same textbox, I decided to try and check to see if that was it. I still wasn't sure until I check from another character.


It seems really intuitive to put the Posts entry box here, especially when there's no indication from the user dashboard that it even exists anymore. What caused this change?

Answer

The box has been moved and is now under the Activity History tab. There has been some significant redesign, and this now seems like the best place to have it.

Displaying images on profile page

Fowlgon 8 years ago updated by Digby (Community Manager) 7 years ago 1

The new update looks great! Although, images now do not display in our own scrolling profile feeds. However, they do display in the feeds of other users! (Example screenshots below)


I feel that this is important for access, especially when you are trying to find the right artist/title to the picture you remember promoting.


It would be greatly appreciated if you could possibly match the display of our feeds more closely with that of other users!


Thanks for listening,

Fowlgon

Answer

We have gone through a recent change; pictures now show up, and promoted images are shown as a smaller thumbnail. We are also currently planning to have promoted images appear larger in the future.

"FN Connect" 1-Click Login API w/ TFA -- "verified accounts of <username>" section

SeiRruf 8 years ago updated by Digby (Community Manager) 7 years ago 2

Inspiration:
The more FurryNetwork (FN) develops, the more potential I see in it as a center outlet for furries, globally. Being able to interface everything, and create our own "Google" of things. Remembering passwords for each begins to be more of a hassle than not, unless you're using a password safe. But what other furry communities allowed you to log-in the same way you would log-in to other networks, at the click of a button?


Suggestion Details:

* FN could eventually have a "Login with FurryNetwork" (or link a FN account) API which other furry communities can implement into their existing websites. This would be secured to a level of protection making it safe to use, even if someone's FN login credentials were compromised by making use of Two Factor Authentication (TFA) either by phone number, or email, if set up by the user. EDIT: (found TFA already suggested here, but my suggestion goes a bit more into detail with verification and 1-click logins)


* FurryNetwork could provide the option for users to link/import details from their already owned furry/social accounts, and services owned and ran by Varka (e6, f-list, etc). Which would show up on their profile as "Verified accounts of <username>" (of course having the user log-in to these accounts through FN to verify them). This would further help eliminate impersonators, as the account holders could have all their official accounts verified and listed on what could soon be the worlds most popular Furry Network.


Summary:

I see FN as being a one-stop place for everything Furry. Offering ways of other networks to interact with FN could have a large positive impact on the network overall. I found another suggestion Here. "Verified Accounts" while searching this that may also aid in the whole "verified accounts of <username>" section. A selling point for FN where users can feel they can escape from those trying to impersonate them.


Importance:

This is a low-priority suggestion, which definitely can be implemented after launch. I feel the more FN reaches out to other networks, the more universal and accepted it will begin to feel.

Answer

This doesn't seem like it could be a possibility at the moment. This would need a large amount of reworking to the current site to implement, and it could take multiple years to negotiate this with other furry sites; in addition, they'd need to change coding on their end, and there's no guarantee other sites would want that. We also don't see a huge demand for something like this. If we do get to the point where this would be greatly beneficial to others, we could revisit this idea.

URL: [Object object] bug found under Messages when clicking receivers username.

SeiRruf 8 years ago updated by Digby (Community Manager) 7 years ago 3 2 duplicates

I recently noticed a quick bug which did not clear after clearing my cache, with several refreshes. This bug is minor, but serves as an inconvenience. I was able to reproduce it by sending a fresh new message, which may eliminate caching all together.


Replicating:

  1. On FurryNetwork, navigate to your messages (/conversations/).
  2. Click on/Open an existing message sent or received (if none, send one).
  3. In the body area of the message, click on the receiver's username above the body of the message.
  4. You should end up at the following URL: https://beta.furrynetwork.com/[object%20Object]/


I believe this is due to recent programming updates, which may have gone uncaught after changing the structure to the Objects used to handle usernames/profile urls.


Other Information:
System - Windows 7

Browser - Chrome, with JS enabled

Adblock - Disabled


I hope I filled this correctly with enough information to reproduce and correct this bug for the developers.

Answer

The site has undergone some changes. At this point, clicking on the name above the conversation will take you to the user's profile.
