New Updates
You may have noticed the forum going up and down for a while today. This was due to us making some changes/updates to the forum to make it a bit nicer to use! We hope that the new updates make using the forum even just a bit nicer for everyone
New Category: Announcements
Where you currently are! This category will be used to both mirror announcements from other platforms, as well as make forum-specific announcements. Be sure to check back regularly to stay up to date!
New Plugins
We have installed 5 new plugins to make the forum a bit nicer to use. Each one will be gone over.
Plugin: Solved
Solved is a plugin now in use on our Support category. This plugin allows thread authors to accept replies as "solutions’'. These replies will be distinguished with a green check mark, and linked to at the top of the original post.
This will make marking issues as “solved” much easier, and make it so you can find answers to common issues much faster!
Plugin: Reactions
Reactions is a plugin that adds the ability to add different emoji reactions to posts. This works alongside likes, but giving you a higher level of expression! Hover over the “like” button to see a list of new emojis.
We will eventually be porting over our emojis from our Discord server onto the forum, so they can be used here as well!
Plugin: Math
Math is a plugin that adds the ability to use LaTeX in posts for math equations.
We expect this to be most useful in Technical Discussion.
Example:
$$
\sqrt{(-1)} \; 2^3 \; \sum \; \pi
$$
Plugin: Graphviz
Graphviz is a plugin that adds the ability to use Graphviz graphs in posts.
We expect this to be most useful in Technical Discussion.
Example:
[graphviz engine=circo]
graph {
a -- b;
b -- c;
c -- d;
d -- e;
e -- g;
a -- g;
a -- c;
a -- d;
a -- e;
b -- d;
b -- e;
b -- g;
c -- e;
c -- g;
d -- g;
}
[/graphviz]
Plugin: Assign
Assign is a plugin that adds the ability to assign a user, or whole group, to a thread. That way it’s clear who is looking into what.
We expect this to be most useful in our Support category.
