The Menu and Header
We made navigation even easier. We implemented a menu widget at the left corner of the forum. This was done for organization and easy navigation. Also, the header was finally fixed by Pizza Boi.
That is all for now. Stay tuned for more of YGODA's updates and announcements. Have fun and enjoy!
Hashtag and Advanced Tagging System
There are 2 features which have been debugged and fixed and that's the famou Hashtag and Advanced Tagging System!
You may all be familiar with these systems, correct? Now, let us brief you about this. The hashtag system will be used in order to search for topics easier and this is an example:
#YGODAGuide
Note: All variables or messages starting with '#' will now be considered as hashtag for all of us, including the staff.
Another thing is the advanced tagging system we have, it is like the feature in Facebook but we are using the LGBB parser code for this since the OLD Advanced Tagging System required DOM and with the new update, the DOM Google external server does not work anymore.
This system was also coined up using the external server method so if you want to know how to do this, find the external script we used in hosting this.
This is an example of how you tag someone:
@Pizza
After months (1, lol), we have that feature already so please enjoy using them, just remember to not abuse them
. We have null the features in the chat box so we won't get myriads of notifications for errors.
Societies
This idea is all thanks to Guardian of Chaos. In this thing, we will be implementing Javascript Library a.k.a. JQuery to the person's profile. This has not been announced in YGODA but it's basically a Society of Light where a lot of you will duel the rest in order to gain points and whatnot.
The mechanics are still being made. Please be patient.
Regards,
YGODA Staff
