Add qfc code tags

Recommended Posts

Hi there,

 

May I suggest creating quick-find code tags? A quickfind code tag would require a quickfind code from the rsof (with the number seperated by commas) and then convert it to an ur:

[qfc]123-345-567-456789[/qfc]
//or possibly:
[qfc=123-345-567-456789]textual representation[/qfc]

 

This would turn into a hyperlink to the right thread:

http://[Use Quick Find Code]/[Please Use QuickFind Code]?123,345,567,456789

?123,345,567,456789]textual representation

 

This would make a neat addition to the forums I think?

First they came to fishing

and I didn't speak out because I wasn't fishing

 

Then they came to the yews

and I didn't speak out because I didn't cut yews

 

Then they came for the ores

and I didn't speak out because I didn't collect ores

 

Then they came for me

and there was no one left to speak out for me.

That'd actually be quite a nice addition.

Shouldn't need too much coding either.

A possible addition (though i dunno how workable it would be) would be to make it do it automated.

Same as when you post a link atm it automatically makes it link, culd perhaps make a code to automatically make any qfc code turn into a link.

That would actually require code changes I think - making just the bbcode can be done from the ACP directly as far as I know.

This is such a simple yet great idea I can't believe it wasn't thought of before. Hopefully it isn't too hard to implement as I can see it being useful for users to create links to the RSOF while still stopping scammers from posting fake links. :thumbup:

Just noticed this thread after walking off from this forum for a bit. Thanks for putting this change in place, Peter, and thanks to Tripsis for starting the investigation for us. This will definitely be very handy in the future. :thumbsup:

 

However, I do have one more thing to add to this discussion... Could we have a button on the posting bars in order to make this a bit easier, like how we have the button for spoilers right now, please? I'm rather sure there would be more than just myself that would find such a button extremely useful. :huh:

I agree with DV, not sure how things are put on there though. I would assume as it currently is, not many people know of these code tags.

Want to be my friend? Look under my name to the left<<< and click the 'Add as friend' button!

I plan on getting an announcement up about this soon, I'm just waiting for.... something ;)

 

And I'll work on making an image for it so it can appear outside the drop down menu.

Just in-case you're taking suggestions on what that button's image could look like, tripsis... I think something like the "R" and "S" from the RuneScape Logo, along with "QFC" or "Forums" below it in plain lettering would make a good self-describing button image. :) ... Albeit, I'll admit that my thought is probably mundane and overly basic. :P
