Can we please get the "Ratings" section under the "Smilies" menu to include all the available ratings? I want to use the horrifying rating in a post of mine but I can't find it when I search for it.
 
What is making some people turn their text to black? Are they just retarded?
a combination of people being retarded but sometimes if you copypaste "rich text" it will keep the color and if the color matches your input text closely you will not notice.
 
when i browse the farms on mobile (android firefox in desktop view) the post dates are almost always wrong, when showing the relative time eg x min ago.

eg i just made a post in the mega rad gun thread, when i view from my desktop it says the post was 4 min ago, when i view on my phone it says 55 min ago.
the time offset does not seem to be constant , and i see it show for a second correctly and then it updates to the incorrect value.

i can mainly tell on the front page looking at the most recent posts for each board, and none of them will show in the last 20-30 min. even though i know there are lots of active threads.

this is not a new issue i have noticed it for a while. just thought i would share.

edit: the times are showing correctly on mobile when i am logged out/incognito though, but im pretty sure the light theme just gave me eye cancer.

here are some screenshots showing the time diffrences from my desktop and mobile, i refreshed the page at the same time so the times should match but they are way off.

What's the verdict on https://www.tweeks.io ?

Some KF users have visually distracting gif pfps (stone me to death, I am guilty) and I would like to block the elements - but Brave Tor doesn't have the block element function and I can't get Ublock or NoScript to do it for me either.

I'm too software illiterate to evaluate whether this Tweeks extension is a fox in the henhouse or not.
Quoting a relevant post from Software Endorsements. I got curious as to why he can't just filter animated PFPs with uBlock and it turns out that any avatar is linked as a .JPG file, even if it isn't. The GET request doesn't get rewritten, the content-type of the header response is "image/jpeg". Dev tools also say the MIME type is "image/jpeg", however the browser's raw image view correctly identifies the image (tab title on Firefox). Is this some quirk of Xenforo?
 
your system clock is wrong.
On a cellular connected android? I don't think I can even set the time.
And why would that make the time wrong only when I'm logged into the site?
The time is otherwise correct and I do see the correct time show for a sec before it changes. I assumed it was some Javascript fuckery
 
tz can be set on both user profile and your browser.
Weird it seems like it's working now, I'm not sure if it is a tz issue as I would expect the times to be consistently off and by a whole or half hour, not 9 min like my screenshots. Thanks for all you do boss.

yea its still there, looks like something to do with the js, i ran a debugger and can see that variables do not match up on my pc vs android. it seems like they both think they are on -0600 tz though.

i assume that the value sent in the initial html is correct because i see it flash correct for a second, just not sure how to capture an initial breakpoint via remote ff debug.

i dont know enough about js to attempt to figure out what all the code is doing but the variables seem incorrect before they make it to my breakpoint on modification of the <time> element.

its not like you have to work on this, im just trying to figure some stuff out and document what i find.
it seems like the z value is wrong on the android before reaching this breakpoint, not sure what sets that variable.

here is the js that the debugger breaks at, not sure what the proper way to share this is in because minified js can suck to read.
JavaScript:
(r.textContent=XF.phrase("x_minutes_ago",{"{minutes}":z}),r.xfDynType="minutes"+z)):A>=b?"today"!==x&&(r.textContent=XF.phrase("today_at_x",{"{time}":r.getAttribute("data-time")})
and this js file

I think there's a bit of a memory leak going on somewhere. I accidentally left a tab of the front page open for around an hour, only to come back to this:

Could we get a >paste link on text to auto generate url tags<?

If I highlight text and paste a link right now it just replaces the text. Hope this is the right thread

If you highlight it you can use the Insert Link keyboard shortcut of Ctrl+K (seems like it only works with Left Ctrl+k). On mobile you'll have to touch the Insert Link button but it still works with highlighting text.
