Do you like the new forum?

I think you need to go back and have a chat with Pooh, Pigglet and Eeyore. :grinning: :grinning:

Tom... :grinning: :+1: :coffee: :australia:

Always had soft spot for poor Piglet etc.
In fact, they live not far from me in Hundred Acre Wood in the Ashdown Forest, and that bit is real.

That is weird.
a) Something to do with Star Trek
b) Too much lysergic acid
c) gents queuing at the loo at the end of the corridor
d ) walking through the looking glass
d) none of those

LOL but lets go with D

D is the choice, you're not into Sci-Fi are you :wink:

You have stopped taking your medication again haven't you.

They won't let you back in the hospital if you don't take your meds, I know I haven't been allowed back in years :laughing: :grinning: :laughing: :grinning:

Good catch! I enabled PDF files as well.

I have not checked but are privacy filters applied automatically to all uploads?

In the old forum I had to tell countless members that their photos were geotagged or that their PDF included their name as author etc... these meta data could be removed automatically probably. In the GDPR context this also might be a good thing to have.

(that won't solve code with personal phone numbers or Wi-Fi credentials but that would be a good start if this is now automatically enforced)

Hmm, I'm not aware of forum plugins to do this kind of filtering automatically - do you have pointers or examples on how this is implemented in other forums?

Mentioned there.

Usera have already signed up for the anti piracy, and privacy clause so stripping personal data may not be the issue they mention in that thread.

Seems there is a plugin to do this Site setting for "strip image metadata" - announcements - Discourse Meta

Did you notice that Remove location EXIF data from uploaded photos - feature - Discourse Meta actually uses normal pages instead of the kilometer long scrolling?

So it seems to be possible in discourse. I think it will make a number of people very happy.

+1 for removing the wonky slider.

Has a few occasions when it didn't quite make it to the top and required another attempts to get it there.
More so on long threads like this and LarrD's

EDIT: same link as @Ballscrewbob shared, sorry for the duplicate

Not on my Mac...

It is possible to add a link in a sneaky way, without anyone noticing it.
A link with a single dot, or a 1x1 pixel picture is obvious a deliberate way to get a link on this forum.

For example in my post: The trouble with assumptions - #13 by Koepel
there you can see the dot at the end is a link.

As long as no one clicks on it, there is not click-count, and it is just the dot.

I did not test it with a 1x1 pixel picture, because I don't want to be banned from the forum ! (which would actually be a good way to deal with people trying to do that).

If this is true, then, Hello Reddit.

Sorry, I'm not entirely sure that I agree with what I've written there but felt it appropriate to say it after I'd argued that "Arduino" (i.e. as a company) had some interest in keeping the community happy since doing so would result in sales of their hardware.

The more we say "of course the forum's there to discuss Blue Pills and Teensies" the more we justify their argument that they can do whatever they want with it.

How about enabling .txt and .csv uploads?

It was a common way in the past to attach data output from a program or a file used as input.
