Salemosophy Posted January 21, 2011 Posted January 21, 2011 If I may make a suggestion, I'm getting somewhat exhausted with editing my signature to include links to my works every time I upload something new or end up having to re-upload something due to some error with the site database. I'm cool with being flexible, but my angst brought me to an idea I have for site functionality I believe would be very useful. My suggestion is basically to include an option in the upload menu to automatically add a link to the upload in a member's signature. YC already does this when creating a forum post, so I don't see how it would be terribly difficult to add the functionality to add the same link in a member's signature as well. With another year or so of learning programming, I might be able to do it myself, but I'm still too new to it to be of any real benefit. Maybe there's a way to add it with IPBoard developers. At any rate, it would be awesome to have that option so I don't have to bounce around screens to add links to my music in my signature. I'd really like to have the option to include it in my signature when I upload. Thanks! Quote
Marius Posted January 21, 2011 Posted January 21, 2011 Interesting thought, Shaun. I don't actually like the idea personally since I don't put links to work in my signature, but I can definitely see a use for this so long as it's just an option. I've made a note of it and we'll see what we can do! :) Quote
chopin Posted January 21, 2011 Posted January 21, 2011 Noted as well. I will definitely take a look and see what I can do personally. Quote
Salemosophy Posted January 21, 2011 Author Posted January 21, 2011 As always, you guys are awesome. Thanks! :) Quote
Peter_W. Posted January 22, 2011 Posted January 22, 2011 Hm! Interesting idea. But yeah, definitely make it optional. Perhaps an clickable option on the upload pages themselves on whether or not to display a link at the end of one's signature. I might even use an option like that. Quote
