And people who do not like to be sorted in binary sex assignment would not be lucky with his or her. gender neutral is not easy
In Canada a war has been launched against Professor Jordan Peterson because he refuses to address non-binary students with their preferred pronouns (I believe there are 66 non-binary states presently). The screaming and anger hurled at him is amazing: it's all on YouTube. And for the first time in years he was refused government money for research so it's getting serious.

In good old times those crazy ppl were confined in asylums.
Now can we stop about this bs and talk about Vivaldi problems? thank you. -
@iAN-CooG Indeed. Off-topic. My apologies for joining in. Back to regularly scheduled programming.

Hi folks, it's possible to add an option not to duplicate the reply's?
It really confusing to me and I don't see the utility.
I add a screenshots to seeStrangely, very few times, it don't show the duplicate reply and I don't understand why this happens...

@Marko-Indaco it's a bit confuse to me too.

The Big Red Plus
I had no idea what this was until I asked on this forum.
Please add a tool tip to the big red plus that appears when writing a post in this forum.Also, why is it a plus? It would make more sense if it was a ^, >, or a v like in bookmarks. The first time you press it, it takes things away, so plus doesn't make sense.
-
Huh... Oddly, despite it being big and red, I don't recall noticing that button it until you mentioned it. (Or maybe I did, but forgot about it.) Has that always been there since the forum switched to NodeBB?
Maybe it's a white "+" on a red background because it temporarily folds away the post/reply form, like a Swiss Army knife folds away its tools? That's the best explanation I can come up with.
DIY userstyle fix:
/* Change FontAwesome "+" to FontAwesome expand/contract arrows */ .taskbar-composer .fa-plus:before {content: "\f065" !important;} .taskbar-composer.active .fa-plus:before {content: "\f066" !important;} /* Make a tooltip */ .taskbar-composer:hover::after { position:absolute; text-align:center; top: -4ex; left: 0; background:cornsilk; padding: 0.1em 0.4em; opacity:0.8; box-shadow: .3em .3em .3em rgba(0,0,0,0.2); content: "Restore\A composer"; } .taskbar-composer.active:hover::after { content: "Hide\A composer"; }
-
@Quinca71 Maybe it's a plus because it means I want to go looking for something I want to add to my post.
Yes, it's a white plus in a red circle, but that was too many words.
It still needs a tool tip.
-
@Quinca71 I was just saying I was too lazy to spell it out with as many words as my later explanation contained.
You make a good point though about remembering that English isn't everybody's first language. Just another reason to keep statements simple and clear.

Highlighting the up- or downvote button based on which one you've used
-
@VincentVdh Like this?
-
@duarte.framos Exactly like that. Let's push it up in the queue
-
@duarte.framos Yes, yes and yes. To both the upvote coloration and the hamburger.

@g_bartsch Thanks guys
I have since noticed that under the mobile version of the forum software (when visited from an Android phone for example) the icon is indeed displayed as the three-dot alternative.
In a desktop browser however, it displays the blue i icon instead, which while totally OK, I find somewhat less descriptive of what it actually does. -
I think the markdown code in forum is great, but as far as I know there is no way to make a button to show/hide content (e.g. for big images or code). Could be useful and help prevent individual posts cluttering up the page.

As I mentioned in another thread, one hacky way to do a spoiler in the current forum (although the collapsing isn't evident in preview) is to nest two block quotes as a spoiler like so:
spoiler
...
...> > spoiler > > ... > > ...
Spoiler tags would be nice, though.

@Isildur Ahh, I never read that. And thanks, that's a clever trick and shall suffice for the time being.

Glad to help. : )
(By the way, I hope it didn't sound like I expected you to be aware of the other thread. I'm in the habit of frequently linking to previous posts, both because they may contain discussion on the same subject that may be of interest to others, and because it helps make a breadcrumb trail for myself when on some future occasion I'm trying to remember where I posted something or got some info.)

@ROTFL said in Feature requests for Vivaldi's new forum:
What about WebM embedding?
Currently it seems impossible to upload GIF files...
WebM? Granted, most users are probably viewing these forums in Vivaldi, but WebM wouldn't work in all major browsers (unless the forum handles transcoding to alternatives for the HTML5 video element's source list). (And if video uploads were allowed, whether H.264 MP4, WebM, or Ogg/Theora, they definitely shouldn't be autoplayed, in case of audio.)
But why can't the forum accept a plain old CompuServe GIF? That seems like something that should be rectified, as long as the forum otherwise accepts image uploads.

Two level hierarchy reply: More then two level reply don't show under first level replay, difficult to discuss.
