Translation Thread Codexx Root 06/17/2023 (Sat) 12:31:08 Id: 31c5a2 No. 8243 [Reply]
So you want to translate the site into another language. This thread exists to provide a guide for how language packs are created and accepted. Step #1: Where to Start The first thing you will need is a copy of the English language pack. This provides English sentences for any text that is templated. All that means is, this is our base pack and if a piece of text is translatable then an entry should appear here. You can find a copy of the language pack on our frontend repository on Git Gud. Here is a direct link: https://gitgud.io/8chan/Aleph/-/blob/dev-localization/languages/eng.json The branch dev-localization should always have the latest changes, and is usually a few edits ahead of the actual site while we're between updates. That link takes you to that version of the file. If you're familiar with git, you can clone the repo. If not, check out the "Download" button to the right of "Open Web IDE". You can get a copy of just the English language pack. Step #2: Editing You will need a text editor to edit these files. There are many out there, including Vim, Atom, VSCode, and Notepad for you masochists. The language packs are in JSON format. If you're not familiar with it, that's perfectly fine. All you need to know is that entries are formatted as such: "name" : "value", We want to leave the names alone (this is how LynxChan knows where to template it in) and edit the value segment. Translate these words or sentences into your native language. Feel free to use any special unicode characters that are common in this language; the website should have little trouble rendering them. If you cannot translate everything, that's fine. There are a lot of lines and it takes time. You can leave some sentences in English so that they will still appear on the site. If you remove the line entirely, it will just display placeholder text. When you're ready to make a submission, you can move on.

>>8484 Added to the repo, and fixed the typo you reported on IRC. Many thanks for the contribution.
>>8486 Don't mention it. However, I cannot see it on the board management page - rather, I see a broken "it, it-ch" language option, a spanish one and a french one. What gives?
>>8493 Changes will roll out with the next site update, which is progressing nicely. I don't have an ETA on it but progress is being made.

Make "disclaimer4" cookie not be session Anonymous 09/11/2023 (Mon) 20:43:26 Id: fbec5b No. 8469 [Reply]
Hey site owner, I remember you said you had to put that annoying disclaimer page on to appease your webhost, but could you please change the "disclaimer4" cookie to have a sensible expiry time (say 1 year) instead of expiring after every session? It's annoying to have to click through the disclaimer after every time we close our browser. Since we can already change the cookie ourselves anyway, you'd just be making it smoother for us while still fulfilling your host's requirement.
>>8469 Actually, is this a good idea?
>>8469 The point of the disclaimer is that it stops certain web archival services from looking up our stuff. Not because WE have anything to hide, but because in the past a malicious troll group used to post CP on SFW boards, archive the threads and the url of the file and use those to report the site to the authorities, all through TOR too if I recall correctly. However, it would be a good idea to make the disclaimer last for at least like, a couple of days any time you clear a captcha.
>>8475 The "certain web archival service" doesn't respect robots.txt?

A Brief Reminder of Fallback Measures Acid Board owner 06/05/2021 (Sat) 04:38:27 Id: fc16f1 No. 3004 [Reply] [Last]
Greetings. With the recent drama passed, I have had some anons contacting me asking if there is a plan or plans on how the site would deal with any sort of major trouble or deplatforming event. Many of you who were here during the "Esther" era already know that we have multiple fallback setups, but it was suggested to me to make a post reminding the oldfags about them and informing the newfags that they exist. If 8moe should go down for a significant time (more than a couple hours) any reason, keep an eye on the site's Twitter and the meta boards of the other imageboard sites. We'll bring updates to the inevitable topics. >If the main domain should be deplatformed <Use the backup domain at https://8chan.se >If THAT somehow gets taken down, which is unlikely as its handled by the guys who handle TPB, we will spin up the https://8chan.cc domain from a Chinese "bulletproof" registrar. >If we lose Cloudflare, the most likely weakpoint in our current setup <We will switch over to the host's in house CDN for DDoS protection. The site will be down for a few hours to a day as the DNS records update, and we'll have to spend a day or two adjusting some settings. Not a big deal. >Its the end of the world and all the domains got yanked. <Access us via the .onion link and Tor Browser/Brave/Dissenter, or visit the proxies on Redchannit. We can spin up tor gateways on redchannit.net, .org, .com, and .xyz on short notice.

Can someone please reign in Vampyr? He just bandeletes whatever he wants at any time he wants, on /b/ of all boards, including any evidence posts of posts he's deleting from the board's own meta thread. He calls everyone complaining about anything or posting anything he doesn't like either Silvia or a "herdnigger" and bans them, for text only posts, for posts breaking no global rules whatsoever, literally anything he chooses to. /b/ is not a board for this kind of random, schizophrenic kneejerk based mod cucking. This has been going on for months, and nobody is even paying attention.

There needs to be some kind of AJAX spinner when submitting new posts. Anonymous 05/15/2023 (Mon) 15:00:54 Id: ae104a No. 8126 [Reply]
When submitting especially large posts like videos, it just sits there and you have no idea anything's happening. Need some kind of animation to indicate that there's background activity.
That should be doable. Let me see if I can get it in the next release.
>>8127 Cool. Perhaps even a progress indicator would be nice.
>>8128 The Reply button has a progress meter already. This just tracks the upload progress. The problem is, there's not really a way to signal what the server is up to on the other end. The delay once the Reply meter hits 100% is the backend handling thumbnails, organizing the files, and regenerating the thread page. There's no way to meter that and report it back. The only real option is a spinner just to let you know the site is doing something and that the page will update once your post is finalized. Can probably make the upload progress clearer, though.

My images not showing on latest images home Anonymous 04/28/2023 (Fri) 23:11:50 Id: 4861ea No. 7980 [Reply]
My images are not showing up in the latest images box in 8chan.moe home page. Why, how to fix it?
>>7980 First, wouldn't it be better to ask this in >>5423? Second, which board is it? Because as far as I understand, only the images of the boards that are public and SFW are shown there.
>>7981 Its public and the images are SFW, images first appeared but not any more, why
>>7982 >the images are SFW What I mean is that the board where you posted them should be marked as such. Check https://8chan.moe/boards.js and see if the board in question has a suitcase icon next to its name like /v/, /hispachan/ or /hisrol/ (this indicates that it is SFW). >images first appeared but not any more, why The only thing I can think of is that the board was flagged as NSFW recently, but I would prefer an admin or the board owner answer this.

Who would be interested in a board for linguistics and conlanging? It would be useful to talk about the aspects of language that you probably can't talk about on other conlanging boards because they're not PC enough.
