「Suggestions & Bugs FAQ」

Posted 6 years, 29 days ago (Edited 5 years, 3 months ago) by _featherweather

just a small hub of a lot of the questions i see get posted often.

feel free to ask any basic questions, although probably around 3/4 of the time, if it's not answered here,
i'll probably direct you to making a help ticket because it's probably an issue
or bug mods will have to answer.

please note this is all unofficial and not run by mods!!

Suggestion? Not sure if this has already been suggested or is actually a thing and i just can't find it, but i think this would be cool for characters with a lot of images. Right now you can create multiple sub galleries for your character, but if you want to view a certain one, you just have to scroll and scroll down, searching for the right gallery page the sub gallery is on. How about making sub galleries clickable so that you get transported to that folder right away? If a character has a lot of images, it's a pain finding the right one.. But maybe this is already a thing and i just don't know how to make it happen. If so, please tell me. Dx

MountainCat you can probably do this via coding although the how is escaping me. When I get a chance I'll see if anyone has actually done this for regular users. If no one has I'll code something simple myself lol (what some users do who have a lot of pictures is sort them into sub galleries and put "important" galleries first)

diinorawrr; will try to respond to all of these although I think a bunch of them leaves the scope of my thread and should probs be addressed to admin instead!

1) so im fairly sure people who have blocked you do not show up in searches but there's no way to have a magical list that shows you who's blocked you because that's a privacy concern! Plenty of people block users for a variety of reasons and allowing those users to know that can put them at risk.

2) see 1! Again I'm not sure what kind of functionality you're thinking of but you should not be seeing threads or posts of users you've blocked and if you are that might be an issue on the backend

3) personally would like that sort of notice - would probably be best to make a ticket for it.

4) this kind of rolls into 1, again. There's plenty of reasons why someone might private a character and I don't think creating a design should trump the owner's comfort.

5) sadly I doubt this would be implemented because it's easy to get around (i.e. reupping character). Also a creator blocking someone does not necessarily mean that they've also blacklisted.

6) are you talking about TH's TOS or the designs TOS? The first is doable the second not so much because not every creator puts that info on there. This is especially true for older designs or ones that are from a different platform

7) again that... seems very invasive? Why would anyone want to be notified if someone unblocked them? That's a huge privacy concern again :(

For your smaller ideas:

- bigger file size = more bandwidth and space needed, not likely in the current version because hosting images is EXPENSIVE
- I do think an icon for animated images would be nice though
- ahaha search for lists would be grand. Sadly right now It's just ctrl+f
- you can simulate folders with a character that holds your art with sub galleries. Not great but doable.
- I think there is a work around to add descriptions but it might be premium only
- again, artists being able to view arts on a private account they're not authorized on is a privacy concern
- coding doesn't work on mobile devices for a variety of reasons but mostly because autocorrect is kind of evil and there's a character limit to how much you can copy and paste at once whixh severely limits it.

it would be cool to be able to see all the images you favourites just like you can see characters you favourites.  A section of favourited images
I'd like to see them again (if there is a way please tell me how)

_featherweather

graystreet003 so I checked and i couldn't find a way to fave images (and no way to view faves images). You can look through your faved characters and literatures though!

graystreet003

It's an option some users have enabled and others don't. So for the ones that do it allows their viewers to favourite an image. I myself have it activated, you can find it by clicking on an image, and somewhere on the image details should be a little star. 

At the maximum of what the favouritism an image offers, is only the author of the image recieves a notification that their image has bin favourites, but as far as I know that's the furthest the favourite option does

_featherweather

graystreet003 huh okay. So I have image faves on but I don't see any option to uh.. fave images (at the very least I'm checking out your account and I see no option). To me, if we have a fave image option you should be able to see it from Settings > Interactions > Favorite (Images) but no such setting exist :|

Seems like an oversight on the programmers part!

graystreet003

ah, I see... I'm a little confused, I may have used the wrong way to describe what I meant. But just to clear it off, this is what I meant Screenshot_1009.png

next to the little edit button located left and below a picture if you enable favourites on your pictures the star appears, and lets you favourite the picture (in the image appears as yellow because I favourite it). So what I meant is that it would be cool that there was somewhere where you could see all the pictures you favourites, just like one can see the characters one favourited

_featherweather the fave image option is to turn favorites on for your own images. If you turn it on, it will allow people to favorite the images you post on your profile, not for you favoriting other people's images on their profiles. Granted, I don't know if there's anywhere to view them. I assume a menu may pop up under your favorites in your settings? Either way you can only fave them if the person who either made them or uploaded them (idk which determines the setting) has them enabled

EDIT: got sniped with my answer lol dont mind meeee

_featherweather

graystreet003 and ferdie Thanks! I'm sorry my explanation ass very poor. I was trying to say that I cannot find any option to fave on anyone's images, including yours graystreet (because based on what you said it sounded like you have turned your favorites on). I can't see a favorite option on any< image anyone I follow has posted in the last 13hrs when I'm pretty sure at least some of them had image favorites turned on in the past so something might just be borked all around with image faves.

But yeah it seems like there's 0 way to see your favorite images on TH which seems like an oversight since what's the point of faving images if you can't find them at a later date (I guess as a way to kudos an image but even on ao3 if you kudos a work you can find a record of it albeit not easily)

Echoklang is your friend getting auto fill from ToyHou.se itself or their browser? My browser(s) auto complete credits for artists I use often but that's a browser thing, not a TH thing

_featherweather

Echoklang you're welcome!

Bug? Favourites sorting seems to have issues on occasion. After favouriting a character and selecting a folder to sort them into, they persist outside of the folders and appear within the main favourites section.

Re-doing the favourite results in the same. Most of my favourites sort fine but it seems to occur every now and again.

____________ Edit: Going into the Favourites Management and moving it manually has worked, just a mild annoyance when it doesn't do it from the favourite button itself.
