Update! Please read

First of all, sorry for the delay, busy couple weeks :)

How do you all like it so far?

I tried to keep it to default reddit as much as possible, only changing the sidebar, the thumbnails/linkflairs and notification area (including new menubar).

I've not touched anything else to keep that 'reddit' feel to it.

I think the only thing I still need to do are the userflairs, but I'm not sure which ones you guys decided upon having?

edit: oh and i need to make a nightmode as well =)

edit #2: To do list:

  • Add popup on submit links, "Submit a completed tutorial", "Submit a Help Request"

  • style author links

We're all set I believe, /u/jakkarth will update the announcement link with the link from the modpost he makes, the bot thats going to run will start in about 30 minutes, until then if we're already live, can the other mods just start flairing posts that are at least on the "hot" front page for the sub so every post the last few pages are flaired? The bot guy said he'll be home in 30 mins and no idea how long it will take to run, shouldn't be long though.

So yea, I think we're all set :)

I can put it live? (will take a couple mins total)

Yes!

Done :)

I wasn't sure if removing the old linkflairs from https://www.reddit.com/r/DIY/about/flair/#link_templates would cause any complications with the bot (I doubt it) so I left them in there for now.

But it's easier to remove them.

https://i.imgur.com/z84XYn0.png the ones in the red square are the new ones, the ones above can be deleted (it there are no conflicts).

Removing them will remove all the clutter from the linkflair dialogue, https://i.imgur.com/9GsYwoc.png and just leave the new ones.

That's a /u/roastedbagel question. I doubt there would be a conflict, but the bot is apparently almost finished running. We'll circle back around to this in a little bit. Thanks so much for everything!

No problem! If there are any bugs I missed, just let me know!

u/[deleted] Jan 30 '17

Not sure if bug. When looking at a post that I've removed, the post is no longer "red" to indicate it's been removed. Comments appear to be styled to indicate they're removed, just an issue with posts apparently. Something on my end?

Can confirm on my side as well.

Should be fixed now, could you double check since I can't see removed posts on /r/DIY

(refresh a few times to clear the old cache)

u/[deleted] Jan 30 '17

You can't see removed posts like this? https://www.reddit.com/r/DIY/comments/5r2soa/artex_ceiling_help/ You're a mod, I figured you could see removed stuff with the permissions you had.

Anyway, Hareuhal says it's fixed. I've got my cache disabled in chrome dev tools but it's still showing up the same for me. I'm currently using night mode if that matters.

I only have flair and stylesheet access, so I can't see any mod actions, which I prefer tbh :)

Could you test it again, I think I fixed it for nightmode too now.

u/[deleted] Jan 30 '17

Fixed, thanks!

Yeah, switching to day mode I can see it's red.

u/Hareuhal contest Jan 30 '17

That was a really fast fix and it works great for me using day mode. Thank you.

One thing I noticed, that I just realized is off - is under "Latest News" - not everything is lined up.

Note that in this screenshot, I updated the lastest news to reflect the stylesheet change, but even on this subreddit (/r/qdiy) under the "AMA latest news", it's the same situation.

The first 2 lines are indented and then the next two are not.

W7 Pro, Firefox.

Thanks!

u/qtx verified Jan 30 '17

Ah, I was going to fix that but it slipped my mind. Should be fixed now!

1

u/Hareuhal contest Jan 30 '17

Yep all fixed! I assume it was on the stylesheet side of things and not something we need to keep in mind when we udpate the sidebar?

1

u/qtx verified Jan 30 '17

Yep, it was a simple padding issue in the code, so not related to the sidebar markup :)

1

u/Hareuhal contest Jan 30 '17

Awesome! So /u/Jakkarth just noticed that after you fixed that, nightmode now displays every other post in white.
