[DONE] Notepad suggestions - Web Apps

#1 Added by Sherkalyn 2 decades ago

I don't know if this is the right place to make suggestions about the Notepad Application, but since it shows up in the same homepage as the mail and forum apps, I'll do it anyways.

Right now, the notepad is just a single block of text that you can access from outside the game. As it is, it isn't the most useful thing out there. It would be much more useful if you could make separate note files by clicking a "Create new" button just like you create a new thread on this forum. You could also Give them a Title save them. Once saved, the Note would show in a list by it's title. You click on the title to re-open it, and once reopened, it can be either edited, deleted, or directly sent by ingame mail to another player.

Seems simple enough to implement but again, I'm no PHP expert.

I don't know if this is how it's currently implemented, but it seems likely.

Current case is a "Notes" table with fields for character id and text, possibly using the character id as the primary key.

the change you suggest might be implemented as a table with fields for note id, character id, title and text, with note id as key, and maybe an index on character id (pretty small table though). Use two screens in the app, one which selects all notes with character id = you, and displays titles - then the existing screen to edit/manage the note.

Pretty easy, really. Might want to set limits on how many notes a character can have, but it could be pretty generous.

As an aside, do "PHP" and "expert" belong in the same sentence? (Just kidding! *runs and hides*)

What she said... I'm a n00b once it comes to coding in general. ^^;

Gotta Agree to that.
While a Notepad is a great Idea, a little more structure in it would be even better ^^

Good work.
( When we edit the note, the buttons "save note" and "delete note" are not align in French and German version )

Nice change but it no longer saves any line breaks. (i.e. no formatting is retained if you use the enter key). My notes have become unreadable and wont save correctly even if I re-type them.

That should be fixed really soon. In the mean time, the out of game editor does not have this problem.
