Campaign Map Updates – New Markers and More
The campaign maps have been needing a bit of an overhaul for a while, and I finally got a chance to make a few of the changes I’ve been wanting to do. Over the weekend, I whipped up a couple great additions to the maps, and I think you’ll like them.
General Purpose Markers
Up to now, the only markers you could add to your wiki were for wiki pages. The idea was that you would make a location in your wiki, then link to it from your map. However, as many of you have told us, that’s a little too restrictive. So, we’ve backed off that restriction and made the markers much more general purpose. You can put whatever wiki text you want in there and it will wiki-link to other pages, characters, items, you-name-it. Imagine each marker as a mini wiki page and you get the idea.
Forum Updates: Subforums and Stickies
Over the past week we’ve quietly launched two new forum features: Subforums and Stickies. You can probably guess what they do, but here’s a quick rundown anyway
Thank You All
On behalf of all of us here at Obsidian Portal we’d like to say Thank You to everyone who has made all of this possible. For 3 years in a row now we have been honored by receiving such a prestigious award and we could not have accomplished any of it without you all. Your support, dedication and overwhelming enthusiasm for our site is what keeps us running. We couldn’t have done it without you!
Campaign Calendar updates
We’ve listened to your feedback regarding the campaign calendars and now we’ve rolled out a handful of new features and improvements.
Obsidian Portal Mobile
If you check out Obsidian Portal on your mobile device, you may get a bit of a shock. Instead of just being the regular site scrunched up onto the screen, you’ll see that it now fits nicely with no zooming and scrolling. We’ve heard your calls for a better mobile version and now we’re getting there.
