BBCode?

Given recent events and the fact that the Development Zone has disappeared from my index, this post serves as a question as well as a suggestion, the former being: Is RPN still developing new BBCode at the moment?


If not, aw, but I shall hope for that to change when things settle down. If so, awesome! Either way, some suggestions for the future, near or far.

Can I support this somehow? Run around with a #Support perhaps? Would liking it work? Or what about dramatically asking to support somehow, does that work?
 
I don't think the fractions for columns is possible, honestly. It has nothing to with RPN, but an industry standard of web design on how web pages are measured. Columns are already a fraction of page width - on a "full size" webpage, which is twelve columns wide, one column is approximately 8% of the page width. A tablet viewport decreases the page width to 8 columns iirc, and a mobile viewport forces the site into 4 columns (and nixes the column BBCode command, which is a different kind of column, sort of). These columns are declared in the CSS code in whole numbers.


As far as the headers and subheaders go, I'm glad to see Impact gone, but I do think we could use something a little heavier. The posts are all in "Open Sans" now, I think, which doesn't really have a suitable display font imo. I know Ariel Black would be a good choice.

I actually like to use fractions with columns, because of the bork - instead of setting the column to 2.5 (or 1.5, or 3.5), it seems to just adjust the width to fit whatever I've put in there, which can be a help when I've got several columns and standard widths are too big.
 
I didn't post again last night, but I looked up Open Sans and I am a buttface. There is a display option called Extra Bold 800 that we might be able to convince Wiz is a good alternative for the the (sub)header tag.

That 'Extra Bold 800' looks amazing. °—°

Ehhhh - I still want a narrower font. xD
Fair enough, I know we're got different taste, and it would be nice to have a few different options. I'll ask Wiz next time I see him. Until then, you may have to manually set Impact as your header font.
 
What are you asking? We have spoilers, it's in the bbcode list.

Like so.
 
Heya @Dragongal!


You can type spoilers by using the spoiler tags, like so:

Code:
[spoiler]This is SPOILER WARNING text!![/spoiler]

That looks like:

This is SPOILER WARNING text!!
Alternatively, you can use inline spoiler text!

Code:
[inlinespoiler]This is SPOILER WARNING text!![/inlinespoiler]

This looks like:


This is SPOILER WARNING text!!

Heya! I usually don't ask questions because I feel like I am bothering. I have been on RPN for about a year now and I can so simple BBcodes... I want to advance. I want to have a forum everyone has heart eyes for because it looks that cool. Perhaps someone can guide me?
