carrot cake

Hi welcome to the site , can i remind you and everyone that forums have categories keep hi everyones to the Introductions sub forum . where i have moved this post too.

There was a CSS error masking the visability of the group chat feature.

i have fixed this for the default theme.

you should now see these icons top right of the chat window

Added sublte css tweaks to blend the forum stats more with the sites default theme.. your milage may vary if you have altered your theme,

// Stats styling to match default theme (needs more work on the html classes to by themeable)
.widget-board-stats {
    border-left: 0px;
    border-bottom: 0px;
    border-right: 0px;
}
.widget-board-stats h3 {
    background:#2c3e50;
    border-radius: 4px;
}

a good question , i will have a think on this and see if there is a way .. i guess we can incorporate something on this site but if you browse away from here i guess there's not much we can do.

@underestimated video playback isnt possible unless you homebrew your console.

Added the ability to share posts on social media...

links appear at the bottom of a forum post.

Google needs fixing.!!

avatars changed to be more unique

Identicon: A geometric pattern based on an email hash

I have added a feature that allows you to use a gravatar image as avatar / icon on this forum .

https://en.gravatar.com/ with an account here you can set your avatar to be used here or anywhere on the net.

All Default icons have been set to the Retro: Awesome generated, 8-bit arcade-style pixelated faces if anyone already has gravatar it should pick it up hopefully this helps you all set icons on your switch.

Simple head over to edit profile and click on Change picture , there you can set Gravatar as your icon.:).

@DPadDoc yeah its a javascript issue we have been looking at.

@DPadDoc thank you very much , yeah it really has been 5 years... ..

A wiiU user .. that's cool have you been using our DNS on wiiu ? that's kinda cool.

@SnowRunnerLegend Yeah essentially the applet we use is designed primarily for use when you might want to login to a hotel wifi for example where by you would be prompted with a web page to login , we essentially redirect this call to our servers .. this particular applet that have blocked the use of video tags and applied a time limit .. in which we can only assume was a direct attempt to limit ours and other DNS servers. Other applets have video access but are only accessed using homebrew and hacking your console.. see this post for info : https://browsedns.net/topic/26/homebrew-browser-access

@Kit Yead sadly those things are things most people yearn for but sadly are limited due to several reason.

• Video playback - blocked intentionally since fw 3.0 by Nintendo

• Discord - the version of webkit packed into the switch does not have the ability to run discords bespoke code. Similarly to this very forum we have had to modify / polyfill code to make it work on the switch .. Its a limitation i don't think will ever get a fix.

• the time-limit again is something Nintendo added since fiw 10 , there hasn't been much effort to RE this [censored] yet , it may or may not be possible.. in time we will look for sure.

Im glad your finding it useful.

@Dark-Cloud thants great ty.

Discord on the switch will not work they are using code not compatible with the browser on the switch... there is nothing we can do to help. sadly .. maybe you can fill in the petition we have running : https://www.change.org/p/nintendo-nintendo-expose-the-fully-functional-internet-browser-built-into-the-switch

@Dark-Cloud

Hi and welcome along :)

Hi and welcome along :)

For those who have a homebrewed Switch will probably know of BrowseNX by crc32

and also Goldleaf by XorTroll.

These tools can provide addition functionality over our DNS service with the ability of video playback.

Homebrew is only available on specific versions of the console you can check here if your console is able to run homebrew and if so there is a guide to help you get set up.
