20000 forum users - Awesome Special Event!

In which parts exactly :thinking:

I hope that it won’t be some a11y disaster (the client area is actually not very good at this the last time I checked…)

Different banner look

I knew about this one (I suggested it).

Yeah, I honestly don’t know why they keep it around anymore. Basically nobody uses it.

Yes! It’s a new Discourse thing. Or rather, an addon. Or “theme component” as they call it.

It’s Auto-Linkify Words. You can enter a word and it will automatically turn it into a link. Right now I just setup iFastNet and premium hosting as links, but it probably has much more uses too for KB links, panels, etc.

I updated the template for the client area and it broke a lot of things. The Javascript not working issue we saw last week was one of them, but they also completely changed how alerts worked. So I spent a day updating ~50 different alert instances throughout the panel.

Please let me know if broke any of them.

I did bite the bullet and put it into a proper component now so it’s now all nice and consistent and easier to update.

I think they forgot to add ... … Odd.

At least the cut-off word doesn’t form an inappropriate one! :slightly_smiling_face:

How and why is @EuropeanRat 's profile hidden?


Nobody uses it because when people ask for help there, many times they are told to make a ticket.

If that’s not the reason, maybe it’s because they don’t use Discourse :grinning_face:.


So far, I haven’t noticed any broken components. The Big Four Buttons are still cut-off on my screen, but I’m not bothered by it.


I wonder, would it be better to make suggestions in another informal topic?

You have the option to hide your profile in your user preferences under the “Profile” tab.

Not for me. The checkbox isn’t appearing. Very Odd.

There are lots of profiles without an About Me. Am I the only one with a huge About Me? If not, who else?

My About Me

Just that one and only Jri-Creator! I like coding, and I LOVE building websites! I also like helping others whenever I can!

A few things you should know:

  1. I am a human: I am a human with a life, which means that I am not on the InfinityFree forums 24/7.
  2. I have Pings disabled, except for Admin, Moderators, and TL4: I am not a fan of annoyance, so I have disabled Pings. Admin, Moderators, and TL4 members still have the ability to Ping me.
  3. I don’t like PMs: If you are Admin, Moderators, or people on TL4, PMs welcome. Everyone else will not be able to PM me.
  4. I am not a Moderator: I am not a Moderator, I don’t have any plans to become a Moderator. If I am promoted to Moderator, I may rarely use Moderator permissions.
  5. I am also not a TL4 member: See (4), but replace Moderator with TL4 member.
  6. I do not provide Direct Help: I am on the InfinityFree forum to help everyone out, however I don’t provide Direct Help. See (2.) and (3.). If you ask for direct help on a public Topic, everyone may yell you out.
  7. I may not always be accurate: I have had times where I’ve provided out-of-date or incorrect information. See (1.)
  8. I am a HUGE believer of Free Hosting Forever: If I wasn’t, would I be here?
  9. If my account has the tag “Regular”, I am active on the InfinityFree forums.

If you chose to read my profile’s description, Thank You! Now you know more about me! If you haven’t filled out your profile, take some time to do so!

My magnifying glass will always show where I am!
No, I don’t watch the Admin. The magnifying glass over top the InfinityFree logo is me finding InfinityFree.

I don’t know what key combo I hit, but when I was in the middle of typing .htaccess , I accidentally posted an incomplete post.

Good thing the pencil only (publicly) marks Edits after 5 minutes.

It happens when you press Ctrl + Enter. It can be a little frustrating since the Shift key is located above the left Ctrl in my keyboard, and when trying to press Shift, it might accidentally turn into a Ctrl press.

Maybe those people who don’t have any self-introduction believe in this old saying :thinking: :

“Silence is golden”

From @Oxy’s self-introduction statements :thinking:

But hey, the first 100 years of life are the most difficult !

Is iFastNet ever going to close this ticket, or… (Top Ticket was back when everything and InfinityFree was under DDoS attack.)

2 Likes

I don’t know; maybe they haven’t taken a look into it or the ticket system wasn’t planning to close that ticket?


Since y’all were talking about profile customisation before, I also took my time to disable DMs from most people but moderators, leaders and some OGs (meant to be people from the past that are always reliable) and finally put a title under my profile!

Nice! The Message button still shows up for me though. Is that right?

You’re also included, so you could message me every time if you wanted to, considering you accept DMs from leaders as well.

Went to add it as I agree and it seems someone beat me to it, good suggestion!
