Hide Commission Interface Elements

Colin C (bluefurry) 8 years ago updated by Digby (Community Manager) 7 years ago 2

It would be nice to completely hide the commission elements from the interface for those that don't offer or plan on requesting commissions, it would simplify the interface quite a bit for those not using them, as an option it could be turned back on at any time. even nicer if it were an easy to access toggle

Answer

Currently, the commission buttons are non-intrusive, but since commissions are such a large part of the mission of this site, it's important to let this be accessible. There is currently no plan to include a toggle to show or hide commission tools.

+ add button for adding tags, collections etc on mobile interface

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

Because presding Enter to add tags, Collections etc. does not alwats work on mobile keyboards, a '+' button should be added on the right of the entry field to allow adding via a screen tap.

Answer

At this point, it looks like pushing enter to add tags works well. We don't have any current plans to change how adding tags works on mobile.

FA Import Data tool doesn't work for Classic Light

SynxTheLynx 8 years ago updated by Digby (Community Manager) 7 years ago 5

Hey there.


The FA Import Data tool doesn't work if the user is using the Classic Light theme. I tried this earlier and the tool returned 0 submissions until I switched to Classic Dark. A minor thing, but probably something you'd like to give a heads up on instead of saying just Classic.


Cheers,

Synx.


Answer

Synx, thank you for the heads up. We've had a few issues as FA changes code, and this should now be working with the classic theme. If you have any additional issues, please let us know.

The Commissions feature isn't complete yet; we're running tests with limited numbers of users right now, before we open it up to a wider testing pool.


Patience! :D

Something I noticed about Favorite feature

KaiDragon 8 years ago updated by Digby (Community Manager) 7 years ago 3

Well I don't know if this has been mentioned already, I looked and couldn't find anything like it, so my apologies if I done goofed up.


I noticed that if I go into my own art submission that I have the ability to favorite it myself. I thought clicking that tab would show me who has fav'd that particular picture, but it added a favorite from myself to myself. I was just wondering if this is intended, maybe as part of some wider system or future plan?

Answer

You can favorite and promote your own submissions, but this isn't really a problem. The biggest abuse that could come of this is with people boosting their own submission popularity, but the increase in one favorite/promote won't make much of a difference.


I'd say this is similar to the way you can like and favorite your own posts on Twitter and Facebook. The community will determine if this is acceptable or not as time goes on.

Link 'characters' or just have a base account where all characters are available?

FeyPhoenix 8 years ago updated by Digby (Community Manager) 7 years ago 3

I have way too many characters to split them all into separate 'accounts'. It would be great to just have an account and then have all the characters linked to it.


I mean, the character idea is kinda cool, but unless some kind of chat system was implemented or RP something, it seems kind of unnecessary, especially in the case of artists who just post commissions and what have you.


I haven't really been using the site long, nor have I posted things. I tried to check the knowledge base to see if there was any info there, but..... :|


Maybe I am missing something?


It it is supposed to be more like f-list, then we should maybe have the option to show all characters that are linked or something like that.


Honestly, I am just confused by it, because it makes me wonder what furrynetwork is trying to be. Is it primarily an art site like FA/weasyl/others? Or is it trying to be like a character/RP repository like charahub/f-list/f-chat/toyhouse? Is it trying to be both?


I realize this is more than just an idea, but I am curious because these answers and this suggestion all rely on what the site is planning to be. I'd certainly welcome a mix of art and RP, with some worldbuilding stuff. Been trying to get something going with that, but I absolutely abhor forum-style stuff. And f-chat/list is obviously very focused on the sexual aspect of RP.


I'm kinda getting off topic here.


Basically: I don't want to have to try and figure out what character to post something to maximize potential interactions if that is what I am going for.


Forgive my brain

Answer

At the moment, it seems like there are two methods that would work for the majority of users:

  • Add character information to an individual profile.
  • Create separate characters and link (if desired) back to the main profile

Because we have the tools to create a separate character, we don't have plans to implement character pages on a single profile. I do realize it can be difficult to know how to best use these tools. If getting a number of viewers to a main account is important, it may be good to upload all images to a main profile and sorting them with folders.

[User Interaction / Artist Profile] Miscellaneous Ideas for Interaction & Artist Customization

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

Idea:

Add a layer of both interactivity for members of the site to interact with both an artist and with each other, while allowing an artist to interact more, and have a deeper interaction with, members that would act more as a community within the site itself.


Possible Implementation:

An option for, aside from general text posts, the ability to upload journals and polls. Maybe even a small-scale forum available to set up and be moderated by the artist themselves.


Reasoning:

I, personally, love asking people questions, and hearing their opinions and how their mind works. It would be a great tool for me to be able to ask questions, and see ongoing statistics, or let people have the ability to search through questions or scenarios I have posed and answer or give their own input at their discretion from a list, or a thread of topics or list of smaller questions connected to a larger idea. This, obviously, isn't a thing the site needs, and I'd hope if ever it does get attention put into it from the wonderful people that make this site a possibility, that they have put in effort into bringing you more vital or more requested things first.


I'd love to know what the community thinks about this suggestion and the pros and cons of having it implemented. Or if anyone would actually use the bloody thing!

Support & Feedback Forum Scroll bug on IOS 7.1.2

Candyscream 8 years ago updated by Rykomi (Support Admin) 7 years ago 1

(Using an Iphone 4, IOS 7.1.2)

Scrolling the support forum doesn't work at all. Even if more than one topic loads and you see half of a topic below the first one, if you try scrolling you move the whole pageup and reveal a grey void below. Sadly I can't do screenshots since my homebutton is kind of broken (only reacts every other time)

edit/delete custom field

anonymous 8 years ago updated by Digby (Community Manager) 7 years ago 3

I've used custom fields on my profile but didn't notice a typo before saving. Can I edit and correct it? or delete them entirely? Also it would be nice to re-organize them, rather than the fields just showing in order of creation.
