New Postbox
Bernd 2021-02-15 15:09:57 ⋅ 3y No. 109788I'm planning on reworking post box.
Do you guys have some ideas about it?
Features I've been thinking of:
- More intuitive.
- Should appear near the mouse click point.
- Formatting options.
- Better file management.
- Add an option to use images uploaded by other users.
- Posting from every single page including front page and overboard.

We can already do this, simply open the pic uploaded by someone else and Ctrl C -> Ctrl V in the post box. Or how do you want to do it?
Sounds pretty good except for:
>Posting from every single page including front page and overboard.
I don't think this is needed, it will make everything more complex and might scare potential users that are used to normal imageboard layouts.

Post edit should actually edit files and incognito mode.
Change icon for sagé.
Buttons for formatting.

There is no point in toggling incognito mode by editing because we have to preserve history.

Maybe with some seamless search box which searches by file name or other property.
>it will make everything more complex and might scare potential users that are used to normal imageboard layouts.
I probably explained it poorly, but it is aimed to make posting in place easier.

History my ass. You allow to edit text and remove pictures, as well as entire post.
It looks like you have to remove these things if history is so important.
So please reconsider.

You can not delete a post 12 hours old, as well as thread which has replies in it.
Editing need history because otherwise you can change the entire thread by editing your posts in it.
Generally deleting is one thing editing is another.

Make it possible to change incognito status in 12 hours then as it works for the text. What's the problem? Why text can be changed and incognito cannot?

By this logic I have to remove editing notifications for first 12 hours, and allow unnotified editing.
When you delete your post it's id is deleted as well this doesn't break conversation because users who replied to it replied to a deleted post.
Editing without history is losing original text/image/countryball somebody was replying to.

>editing notifications
>Editing without history
You are talking about thinks I, as a simple user, don't know about.
For me it's looks like there is no difference between editing text and editing incognito status. What history, what notifications? I have no clue.

When you edit a post, your old text is persisted and displayed to all users.
It is important because of following scenario:
1) You make a post
2) Somebody replied to it
3) You edited that post
4) I want to see what user at step 2 was originally replying to.

Wow, I'm posting here for almost a month and it's the first time I see that functionality. Imagine how actually important it is. If only we had polls.
Okay, i've got your point. Tho it seems overcomplicated. I have a workaround, I can just delete and post anew with different incognito. Then, please, can you remove those buttons that aren't actually working in editing mode? It's misleading.

Yes post box will be reworked and editing mode will be more obvious.
