YAP! Message Boards Feedback

Nicholas

Moving to a forum will have some growing pains, but it should work out better in the long run.

Please discuss and provide feedback about the forums here.

Uploading profile pictures is very hard. Even though I'm using a 67kb compressed photo of my sitekick it refuses to let me upload it.

Azuly yeah my profile pic was a little too big too. So I cropped it, and I think if you save as jpeg it’s a smaller file size, that worked for me.

Nicholas I like them a lot man I don’t really have any complaints. There are lots of cool features like being able to post images anywhere and all the customization options are awesome.

I would say it’s Old YTV Message Boards 1000.0 honestly. Will be a fun addition to the game for sure.

Nicholas

Azuly Bkells I just increased the profile picture & banner picture max file size significantly. I'm surprised it was so low. New limit is 8MB & 10MB respectively, which is generally the standard.

Azuly

Nicholas worked like a charm.

Can I request an "Upcoming Events" section for non-contest events (Dump Parties, Game/Movie Nights, etc).

Nicholas

tyt139 Good point. Updated Contests category to Contests & Events. Happy to pin any when it starts to fill up.

Is it possible to have a Yap! header on every page that takes you back to the main screen? I just noticed that there isn't one on the chat screen or edit profile screen.

Nicholas

James The header is hidden by default on a handful of pages. You can always return to the main page by clicking Categories on the left hand side.

Would be cool to have post ranks like the old forums. Junior Yapper, X-treme Yapper, Grand Poobah Yapper etc.

Nicholas

h_har_s looked into this briefly, but opted to do player ranks. Maybe we could do bother some point, or I could just hide the badge on the post view.

Azuly

My rank doesn't show :(

Nicholas

Azuly Just did it for you, but to do it yourself, go to your account, Edit Profile, then you can unhide your group title for Amethyst. No way to have multiple on by default (from what I could find).
