odessasteps Posted August 2, 2017 Share Posted August 2, 2017 Just now, Horton Hears a Wooo!!! said: How do we insert Tweets now? Cutting and pasting the link didn't work for me, nor did the "Other Media" option. Worked for me yesterday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RIPPA Posted August 2, 2017 Author Share Posted August 2, 2017 Yeah - tweets work just like they always have so it is possible you just copied the wrong url Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Kronos Posted August 2, 2017 Share Posted August 2, 2017 Tweet didn't work for me just now in the GIF thread. It actually looks like Twitter may have change the method of copying links - perhaps it's giving a different format of link now, or something.

odessasteps Posted August 2, 2017 Share Posted August 2, 2017 Just worked for me in the soccer thread. are you using the "copy link to tweet" feature in twitter or just cnp the url? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Kronos Posted August 2, 2017 Share Posted August 2, 2017 I used the copy link to tweet feature. That's how I knew something had changed. Before, clicking that would cause a popup with the link in it. This morning, it just copies directly. Weird. It'll sort itself out for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rev Ray Posted August 2, 2017 Share Posted August 2, 2017 For what it's worth, I pasted in a link to a tweet, it didn't take first time, edited it and it did work without me recopying it, sooooo.... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spritenaut 32 Posted August 2, 2017 Share Posted August 2, 2017 I'm trying to use Twitter's Copy Link to Tweet command and it does't work. The DVD board just displays the link and doesn't embed. I did post a link just now by copying the URL of the tweet directly out of the navigation bar. Twitter does appear to have changed their format for copying tweets, but I don't think that's the problem. This morning when I tried it, I was getting the old pop-up box.

RIPPA Posted August 2, 2017 Author Share Posted August 2, 2017 AH-HA!!!! Okay - if you paste as plain text, everything appears normal (see the above post) If you select just "paste" the link posts with some funky html buried in it and doesn't embed (see the weird gray box) If you click on remove formatting - the Twitter link will embed properly So it is just like normal cutting and pasting - PASTE AS PLAIN TEXT!!!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

piranesi Posted August 7, 2017 Share Posted August 7, 2017 Somehow @Brian Fowler gave me "reactions" to like nine of my posts all at once and didn't manage to give me a single reputation point. The fact that I checked them all means I've managed to be corncobbed on a message board. 1 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raziel Posted August 14, 2017 Share Posted August 14, 2017 Bug (Feature?) found with BlueBoh skin. When creating a topic, the text in the topic box is black, with the black background. Took me a couple minutes to realize it and not curse out Chrome for fucking up again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RIPPA Posted August 14, 2017 Author Share Posted August 14, 2017 Yeah - all the skins besides the default where customized for the old versions of the board. I haven't had a chance to seek out ones optimized for this version Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
