Senior Admin Will 4,660 Posted April 22, 2016 Senior Admin Share Posted April 22, 2016 It has come to my attention that some people might not be able to see the 'Source' button on toolbar when submitting posts or messages. Here is a screenshot of mine in case you don't have it (2 over from the bold button): I'm not sure why it isn't showing up for people and there has been a few of them who have had issues with it, but I'm pretty confident it isn't a permission thing. For @YEAH!stlemania, we will do this in poll format. Can you see the fucking source button? I want to know! Tagger 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JardyB10 4,865 Posted April 22, 2016 Share Posted April 22, 2016 I'm of the elite "can see the source button" crowd. Although I must admit I've never actually noticed it or cared of its function until now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But aside from posting games, I hardly ever use it. And when I do, it's when a quote or some other shit won't delete, then I get pissed and violently delete all of the source code.

No, I literally write out [ url = *paste game link here* ] SUMMARY [/url ], and then cut and paste that to all the games. Maybe source would be handy for that.

Commissioner Beketov 9,005 Posted April 22, 2016 Commissioner Share Posted April 22, 2016 Nope, haven't had it in awhile. Maybe because I'm using the "broken" default skin to get around the ad on mobile issue? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

evrydayimbyfuglien 600 Posted April 22, 2016 Share Posted April 22, 2016 (edited) I know a lot of my options don't appear unless I go full screen. I'm on mobile now but I know I have the source button on PC usually. Edit: Even going portrait to landscape on mobile gives me more options. No source button on mobile though.I'm using the blackout skin. Edited April 22, 2016 by evrydayimbyfuglien Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Molholt 2,185 Posted April 22, 2016 Share Posted April 22, 2016 The admins can determine what buttons appear at different sizes of screen resolution. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All my monitors (2 at home and 2 at work) run at 1080 and I don't have the sure button on any of them. This is also regardless of what skin I'm using.

If you want everyone to be able to use the source button, you'd go ACP>Members>Groups>Select the Base Member Group(Probably members unless you changed it, and hopefully you assign that permission to everyone even if they have a job)>Edit>Group Settings>Permissions>Can Post HTML. That's IF you want everyone to have access to HTML. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah the source button isn't included in that though. It might be the 'can post HTML' setting you mentioned, I will check later. I didn't think it was permissions bc Adwyer CAN see the button while Banack cannot and their groups are pretty similar, but perhaps there is some random VHLM group that has it for whatever reason Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's HTML. Hence the "doHTML" permission - which would be given to all admin/commissioners. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Turns out the reason Adwyer had it and nobody else was because of the VHL Mag group. You asked me to enable it way back when you were editor But the warning message you get when enabling it is intimidating so I'm not sure I'll enable it for everyone or not yet.

Ahh, makes sense - I assumed you had just added it for me Yeah, it is technically dangerous - especially if any Eldred's are running around.

Basically when you use things like the bold button, you see it dynamically change but what is really happening is that HTML is being applied to the text behind the scenes. Source shows you the raw HTML code rather than the already processed text you normally see Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
