How do you narrate if I may ask? I've tried pressing the narration button on the post window but it seems to screw up. Also tried the old way on the old JvS but it doesn't seem to work either. Am I missing something?

So to insert narration, it is the very last button on your posting toolbar when you create a post: Narr.
Code for narration:
[span style="color:#ddaade;"][/span]
This is what the specific code looks like when you click on it if you have your view switched onto BBCode.
And narration should look something like this when you post.
EDIT: When you preview it, it is not the same as the old JvS narration, i.e. no border * and not italics. If you want that effect, you will have to add them in manually. When you post however, it should look like it used to look.
But if that is not your problem, other things that may cause it to look wrong are:
The default view of the Create Post window, is set to Preview. In the Preview view, your codes from the buttons you select will not show up. The effect of the buttons you select should show up if you press it before you start typing. If it doesn't, try highlighting the text you want, and then select the corresponding button you want it to be.
If you like to see your codes, you can switch to the BBCode view by clicking the BBCode button at the bottom of the Create Post interface. If you want to set BBCode as the posting default, you can go to your settings and set BBCode as your default.
Be aware that only the basic pre-coded buttons like font style or color show up in the Quick Reply window and do not include the Preview view. If you are posting from the Quick Reply window, then you will have to know your codes in advance if they are more complicated.
Clear as mud?

Thank you for starting this, Syren.
Yeah, the narration and similar custom codes are somewhat of a hack, so they won't show up fully on the preview or on the mobile version of the site. Sorry about that.

He was just joking, Syren. No need to take it too seriously.  Anyways, the narration coding you provided is working very well. Thanks for the help. Oh, and could this topic be stickied like how previous topics were done in the old site? I really think this topic is helpful for those in trying to get used to this new site. |
