a suggestion regarding the post generator - Tilted Forum Project Discussion Community

phredgreen · 11-26-2003, 10:30 AM

this is intended for the coders and admin-types who can actually make this happen.

the direct link to the titty board is nice, but can we embed a dropdown menu on the post generator in case i have a string of items i wanna place in wayside or test on the testing board before putting the thread in circulation? it'd be handier than clicking the mainpage link and linking into the intended board.

just a suggestion.

i thought that might be nice too.. i always copied and pasted the script's output to it's intended destination though..

Hmm, As a Brit, my view of most Americans is that they demand the easiest option at every turn!

(No offence intended)

BTW, I like your suggestion - it sounds very useful. I usually post stuff in the testing board first so this would be well used.

A further though for modification of the post generator - I used it once to generate a whole series of links for the links board. They were the same apart from a number in the url. Thus, it would be good also if it could have the option for placing [img] tags or [url] tags. I had to cut/paste the text into word, change the uimg to url, and paste it back again. No big deal, it just may be a cool feature to have.
