Update Post – January 20, 2025

Hail, Portal People!

The season clock has chimed again, so it’s time for another reckoning. See below for all of the new features and bug fixes that were added to OP since the previous Update Post.

If you have any questions, comments, or feedback, feel free to post them in the Community Forums, or email support directly at [email protected].

List of Site Updates
  • Changed the Promote to GM popup to explain that the current GM will no longer be able to access the Settings of the Campaign.
  • Clarified further that changing the GM can remove the Campaign’s access to Ascendant features.
  • Added underline to links in alert popup messages to make it clear the links can be clicked.
  • Added alert message to new Calendar Events for non-Ascendant Campaigns to tell Players they can Gift the GM.
  • Added alert message to new Calendar Forum Topic for non-Ascendant Campaigns to tell Players they can Gift the GM.
  • For Items and Characters, changed Filters to use li instead of div so they will stay in the same order in mobile. Also added ellipsis if the filter text is too long, and a title to hover to see the full text.
  • Added sort by case insensitive and then by capital case, so same words are grouped instead of all lower case words at the end.
  • Added name as a field on author tags.
  • Sorted filters on Items and Characters by case insensitive.
  • On Email Notifications, listed Campaign Members from left to right in columns, sorted alpha case insensitive, and truncated with ellipsis if they are too long with hover title to see the full login.
  • On Player Secrets, sorted the Player logins alpha case insensitive, left to right, with ellipsis for too long with hover titles.
  • Added nowrap so long tags with spaces would stay on one line and get truncated with ellipsis.
  • Made hr that separates Email All visible on Notification Controls on Campaign Forums.
  • Added padding on the right of the Notification Controls on Campaign Forums to keep them contained under the textbox.
  • Made the Email Notifications login widths narrow enough to allow 2 columns in mobile view.
  • Made CSS class name more specific to not conflict with potential existing Custom CSS.
  • Added spellcheck false to textareas where javascript, css, or html is expected.
  • Added 302 responses to redirects to tell the browser and google that these are temporary redirects.
  • Added redirect to human check for Public Campaigns instead of redirect to login.
  • Changed text of Privacy to indicate ‘human check’ or not.
  • Hid “GM Only?” for non-GM members of the Campaign on the Character, Item, and Wiki Page popup quick create forms.
  • Fixed extra left margin on the “GM Only?” checkbox on the Wiki Page popup quick create form.
  • Removed “Internet” from the Privacy types on the Upgrade page.
  • Reverted to show all Public Campaigns that a member is in on their Profile even when visitor is not logged in.
  • Reverted restriction to only allow logged in members to see Public Campaigns.
  • Standardized on “Member Name” instead of “login” or “username”
  • Wrapped the Campaign Forum section-header text in a span with a class of text to make it easier to style.
  • Added “Send notification emails to the GM when RSVPs change” to Campaign Settings > Advanced
  • Added send of RSVP change notification email
  • Added session_debrief mailing aka Character Prep Reminder email
  • Added match_mode extended to thinkingsphinx search to enable exact quoted phrase search.
  • Fixed bug with version compare with less than 2 versions selected.
  • Fixed bug where a version compare can compare to pages in another Campaign.
  • Required parent_type and parent_id for Compare Versions to prevent accessing other Campaigns and or GM Only pages.
  • To fix CPU spikes and 502 errors, tried to reduce the number of workers that inlinks and outlinks tasks can use.
  • Restricted all link related background workers to the same queue called links so they can’t take up more than one worker process total together.
  • Fixed bug where changing to a different Campaign Forum Topic would break clicking on the checkbox label to toggle the checkbox.
  • Added an alert with an error message for when the JavaScript for a DST cannot be loaded and the DST is not displayed.
  • Added max of 100 links to the Campaign Settings Advanced See All New Pages report.
  • Set base cursor css value to “auto” instead of “default” so it shows correctly in more scenarios.

Game on!
