How do I…?

They keep accumulating, as this out-of-the-box feature is designed to let you use any image you've previously uploaded. It does have searchability, so if you name your attachments with a unique (or at least categoric) name you should be able to find what you're looking for.

The platform should be doing de-duplication on the back end so there's also no (or limited) harm in just uploading it again.

Thanks Eric. Good to know it's not just me being incompetent.

I've used "other media" and then "insert" to put an image in my post, but even after I moved the image to where I want it, it shows a second image at the bottom of my post like an email attachment. How can I get rid of the extra, unformatted image?

Assuming you're referring to the gallery view at the bottom, like this:

It appears when you are editing a post after you've attached an image to it. It will not show after the post is saved.

If you are seeing something different, please post in Site Feedback with screenshots, browser/OS versions, and steps to reproduce so I can troubleshoot.

As a sneaky feature request, would it be at all possible to put those images in folders? they can get pretty numerous

Is it possible to remove as unwanted topic from a game?

Is it possible to delete a game?

Is there a quick/easy way to break up a large block of quoted text into several smaller blocks, as we could on OGMW? ie if someone asks a bunch of questions in a single post, can we break apart the quote to answer each one inline, rather than having to post a response as a bunch of lines of text at the end of the quote?

I know it can be done in the Source, using HTML, but that's kind of a pain in the ass, so I was hoping there was a simpler way.

Yes. Rather than using the Quote button, select the text that quoting, and a pop-up Quote Selection button will appear adjacent to the selection. Due to limitations on my work computer I can't provide screenshots, but it'll look like this when done:

can you make a thread that was visible just to certain players visible to other/ all players?

I cannot find how to change who can see a thread.

thank you!

 

nevermind, I found it!

I'm sure there is something i'm missing, but how would you do something like this. I basically want to roll 1d100, show any success under 50, and then cause it to repeat until it rolls over 50, and then display how many successes that was?

So for example it rolls d100 and gets 47, then 20, then 31, then 80. It would show 3 successes.

How do I delete a thread?

The option to delete a topic is very easy to find, but I'm not finding how I can delete a thread, only merge, soft delete (which it already was) and un-delete. And I have two threads that are exactly the same.

As with OG, hard deleting is not possible. With a little more context on where the content is, I can provide options on how to deal with it.

In one of my games, there are two threads exactly with the same name. Both are soft-deleted, because I want to keep them hidden. How they were created? I don't know, I only remember creating one instance of the thread.

Odd. I've resolved it, but no indication in the log as to why it happened. Something for the dev team to keep an eye on, I guess.

Thanks.

Now about the colored font problem, did you or any staff member do anything about it, because last time the error didn't happen. Normally I would test more times before asking, but it seems a good opportunity to ask about it now.
