And more is coming - for reals, yo.

Hey, all! 

As you well know, I'm not nearly active here as I once was (or would llike to be again).  Life has changed, gotten so much more hectic than it was when I first founded the Inn.

But whatever.  The point of this post was to share my personal blog - homebrewdad.com.  It's basically a "daddy blog" where I share various creative stuff.  It might be some craft, it might be a recipe, it might be be rebuilding the front porch stairs, or it might just be me musing on parenthood. 

If that sounds interesting to you, by all means, please give it a read or follow. 

I also have a Facebook page for the blog where I post quick little tidbits, and I do a terrible job of maintaining a Twitter, as well.

Welcome to the Inn!

Since the beginning of the Rdinn PM system, messages have always shown up in chronological order.  That works really well for games and whatnot, but typically, you want to see the newest messages first, and don't want to have to skip past pages to make this happen.

As of today, the default view now shows your newest messages first. 

However, if you prefer the old method - never fear.  Go to your "my admin" and edit your user profile.  From there, simply check the box that says "show oldest PMs first in the inbox?" and you'll go back to chronological order.

As you may have noticed, we are currently putting in real effort to add new features to the Inn and to correct old issues. 

Along the way, we will undoubtedly encounter some errors - and there may be some that we don't know about.

So please, Innmates - use this thread to report issues. 

A few notes:

• Please provide as much detail as possible when you make a big report.  At a minimum, we need to know the page you had the issue with, as well as your operating system and browser (i.e. "sending a PM, Windows 7, Firefox" or "using the dice roller, Android 8, Chrome").  If there are other relevant details, please share them.


• To keep things tidy, please do not add conversation to this thread.  If you need to add details or clarify something, please send me a PM instead.  All comments outside of original issue reports and my confirmation of the issue being closed will be deleted.


• Additional reports of the same issue will be copied over as comments to the original report, but in the interest of keeping things streamlined, these extra reports will also be deleted. 

Thank you for your assistance! 

Kind words, but it WAS a stupid mistake. 

Hey all. 

You may have noticed the ability to subscribe to your various games, or to other topics that you may have found interesting. 

If so, you have probably also noticed that this feature is super buggy, never seems to work for certain threads, etc. 

Today, I found and fixed a really stupid error on the script.  It should work perfectly now.

Pleae be advised - if you are not getting notified like you expect, you'll need to resubscribe to the thread in question.  Once that is done, however, you should be golden.

Sorry for this ancient, ridiculous bug.  At least it is finally fixed.

There are great things afoot in the Inn!  The editor is just the first of many updates...

Scott!  So good to see you!  I was literally just thinking of you yesterday!

Yep, eight kids. 

Emily - 21, married
Caleb - 20
Noah - 10
Jonah - 8
Silas - 6
Wynter - 4
Elowyn - 2
Gideon - 9 (weeks)

Odl habits die hard, Schnoz.

Also...

You may note that message subjects are no longer required.  You have to have one when starting a new topic (for obvious reasons), but if you won't want to put some nonsense in the message space... then just don't, you rebel you.

I hope that a lot of people get a similar positive surprise, Sib.

Hah, I haven't used the app.  But we have the site, to which I invited you...

Hang on, I can send you some attachments from Brom via email that might make you giddy...

Oh, yes.  Take a look at those Asana tasks, sir. 

Fresh coat of paint is coming.

Have no fear.

In a recent forum thread, I mentioned that we were going to be making some serious improvements to the Inn.  This announcement serves notice that this was not so much smoke being blown up your collective skirts.

Behold, the Inn has finally upgraded to a full featurerd WYSIWYG editor!  No longer do you need to know HTML to make pretty posts. 

In addition, you can freely copy/paste content from MS Word and Adobe Acrobat documents. 

Better yet - this is only the first improvement we have planned. 

Major thanks go to Alacrity and Bromern Sal for getting me off my butt and back to work on the Inn.  Thanks go to both gentlemen, and well as to Eol Fefalas, for testing the features and putting up with pam emails from me.

Keep your eyes peeled - there is a LOT more to come!

Edit: if the new shark smiley  isn't your favorite part of this upgrade, I have doubts as to whether you possess a soul.

Well, that makes me all sorts of happy!

happy dance commences

Hey, I'm okay with however people want to approach this.  I'd love to have an interactive round.

Is Eol onboard, I wonder?

Sure enough, I am looking to do a post.  I was thinking of a "silver screen" to sort of wrap up the adventure and give us closure, but if you folks would prefer, we could take a few rounds of posts from those who wish to participate.
