Nevermind, it works. Only when I right-click and select "Save Link", not when I use this browser's built-in downloader.
>>212I can only assume that you haven't put those changes through yet. As one example, https://22chan.org/f/ appends "&=FILENAME" to the end of each file. That might work as a quick and dirty solution, which isn't required here, but you might want something more elegant.
>>210>>211Actually that makes me think that we could do both. Since setting that download attribute seems to prevent it from opening the image for viewing inside the browser itself anyway, we could make it so that clicking the thumbnail will open the image inside the browser as normal, but clicking on the filename link above the thumbnail could have the download="actual_filename.jpg" attribute.If that works then that's an easy 10 second fix. I'll do some testing with a few different browsers and if it works then I'll add it to the new server.By the way, the new site is basically ready to deploy. But I'm also switching hosts from A2 to DigitalOcean (which has more up-to-date servers, A2 is still using kernel version 2 on their VPS's), so the site may go down some time tonight or tomorrow, and be off for several hours as I move all the data to the new server and update the DNS info.
>we could make it so that clicking the thumbnail will open the image inside the browser as normal, but clicking on the filename link above the thumbnail could have the download="actual_filename.jpg" attribute.That sounds good, it would've been bad if you couldn't expand the thumbnails anymore. I don't think left-clicking on a normal link will download it, so this is basically the way it'll be in the end.>click on thumbnailMedia expands.>(middle) click on link, middle click on thumbnailMedia opens in new tab. (non-original filename if user saves here)>right click → save on linkImage saves with filename.
>>213>"&=FILENAME"meant "&name=FILENAME"
Is it just me or is this site getting a lower amount of posts everyday? I always check here after work and today there's only been about three or four posts. I know this is one of the niche IBs hipster kids click on when they browse creamy's list and then forget about forever but still, imageboards are most active during the summer. If this is the amount of people that use this site in July I fear how many posts there will be in a few months
>>24Jokes on you I'm already here!
>>24You are misusing sage. If you don't like something - don't reply.
Ohh booohooo
Cretin spotted.
>>8>>4What BBS’s do you use? Looking to set up a telnet for fun
People are recently complaining about a "lack of quality" on the site, yet they dont even bother to bump old good threads and instead reply to the new threads they hate
>>28Old habits die hard unfortunately.I'll do what I can to pull my weight.
Add more styles!It's all I ask.
Taba-tan must have his hands full...
It's difficult because of the mixed-style thing going on when you view threads from multiple boards (like on /all/, or combining boards like /ni+ho/)But I guess it would be easy to add new styles if I just ignored that (sort of like how the Tomorrow theme just applies 1 theme on every board).Also, I suck at coming up with themes. Do you have any in mind? Maybe post some links to sites with styles you like.
>>3I like a plain old Yotsuba or Futaba style. I also find the Gurochan style pretty good.
Thanks shitaba admin for finally noticing this site was dead
What?
The site was down, now it's back up. 2bh I honestly thought that it silently died
>>3That happens on occasion, I think it's a hosting issue based on what I read in the /qa/ archives. I don't think Tabaman is quitting yet.
>>4Well if he ever is, it would be best for all to have someone continue this imageboard.
He's just working on stuff.
Why is it still "email" and not "option"?I mean I know why; it's obviously for the sake of tradition, but I honest to god think it's been at least half a decade since anyone has been dumb enough to put their email inSorry if I sound autistic, but it's just a pet peeve of mine
what's wrong with putting your email in a post if its an anonymos one?
>>23Nothing.I wasn't around back when 4chan had an email field, but if you look at old /jp/ posts, you see people putting their actual emails all the time, as a means to contact others. I blame me not having any internet friends on moot removing the email field.
>>23Because people who used the field for their actual email forgot the "anonymous" part and put in their real emails.
>>25Literally where does it state that you can't enter your real email in there?
>>26Nowhere. But everyone who did put in their real email got their inbox spammed with bullshit
hi friends
I'll try it then
Hi friend, how are you?
>>5good friend, how are you?
>>6Very nice friend, nice to know you're good
You don't get to bring friends
What are those little notes that sometimes appear under posts?
test
Lurk more.
>>2And it doesn't work on the OP.
>>2They're like a more explicit form of sage, that ideally could avoid the "downvote" issue (since they don't contribute to post count, and have low visibility making it clear that the user is diminishing the status of their own posts as opposed to the one they're replying to)To make one all you do is put the post number you want to reply to in the email field.
I suppose I should probably add it to the FAQ
It's documented in >>>/meta/81/63.
where was this documented? I checked under the FAQ and it wasn't there.

How much storage is currently being used?How many files are currently being stored?How many posts have been made?How many posts per day?How many unique IPs have posted?How many unique IP visits per day?How many threads have been made?How many boards have been made?Which OS does the server run?How much are the running costs?Thanks.
>>1>>2>How many threads have been made?2,519 + 734 deleted threads (491 of these seem to be a /qa/ spammer going for the 500 GET) = 3,253>How many boards have been made?148, not including /pr which is totally wiped when whatever bot was let off the leash decides to post on it again. There might be more unlisted boards that were wiped completely.Can't answer questions related to media, I haven't found a good way to automate cloning them yet, and I'm not really sure I can spare 10 GB for them with my current setup.
Oh, I can't count any new threads or boards since last time I cloned the board though, and that was only when I made that deleted threads thread.
>>3>2,519 + 734 deleted threads (491 of these seem to be a /qa/ spammer going for the 500 GET) = 3,253Made a counting mistake, forgot to not include the .orig files I made with wget. It should actually be about 1,259+734, 1993.
>>3 >>4 >>5Are you archiving the site, or did you just write some script to gather info?If archiving I wonder if I can make things easier, like having a link that'll return a database dump (with things such as IP's removed of course)
>>6It's just a habitual thing I like to do for smaller messageboards. Having a dump could be handy for images, like I said I haven't found a handy way to copy those yet. Probably don't have the space for them though. I have to wonder, what's the point in using a database with a floating-style board like this? You can just see what the latest thread/post number is and add one.

Man, fuck the W3. Who the hell cares how they think your website should be designed? CSS was a terrible idea.
>>2The validators are actually useful, and can lead to more accessible websites in ALL browsers. W3C was good too before WHATWG (the html5 people) de facto took it over. RIP XHTML, I wish it succeeded.
>>2CSS is really good though. You can do way more shit with way less boilerplate, meaning more choice in design with less server overhead. It's also a logical progression of the original idea behind the web, which was to be a way of displaying documents with multimedia content a-la hypercard
why does this site exist?
a place for frens to hang out
Nostalgia + autism + weebism is a very powerful force
Should it be 10 like 2ch and Futaba? Or keep the current number (5 replies like 4chan)? Or show a different number of replies?

i made a list of boards i think 4taba should have. obviously untitled boards mean we can have whatever we want but it would still be a good idea to expand the official selection.key:>black - board already exists>yellow - board exists as an untitled board but should be made official>red - board doesn't existmost of these are self-explanatory as 4chan has them already. the only really unique ones are /im/ (internet media) and /io/ (images only). /im/ would basically be a version of /tv/ for youtubers and podcasts, as well as allowing for discussion about creating your own content. /io/ is a suggestion i saw on /qa/ a while ago and i thought it sounded neat. basically it's the opposite of a text-only board like /news/ - no words (not even in the title), only images. interesting to see what would happenthoughts?
>>1We should get rid of the porn.
>>38No
From a personal, selfish point of view; I'm very glad a politics board was never added. I've yet to see anything be touched by current politics and not be irrevocably ruined. There's a reason Politics was considered taboo in polite conversation, and it seems even impolite conversation cannot handle politics.
>>40Completely agreed, and you're not being selfish at all, you're being rather reasonable.
>>40Yea, I'd rather not have politics either. Politics tend to lead to non-comfy conversations.Also, I'm actually quite content with the boards we currently have. If you were to add another board, a music or literature would be fine.
