I’m my forums exclusievly for roleplaying purposes.
We have our character sheets partially hidden from other players’ eyes, so there’s always a surprise when it comes to characters’ abilities, which imposes safer, more realistic gameplay.
On an old phpBB 3.2 we used [HIDE] BBCode, which allowed to hide part of the post so it was visible only for staff members and author of the post.
Does Discourse allow it in any way, possibly via plugins?
If it’s impossible then maybe you could tell me how to hide a whole post like this?
Oh, but you want people not to be able to see it at all. A theme component could do it, but clever people could still look at the json or raw for the post. I think you’d need a plugin.
A different suggestion is to PM staff with your character sheet, if the goal is to share the character sheets only with staff. You could also link to the PM in the topic so it is easy to get to. Only staff would be able to open that PM of course.
That is nearly identical to what you described except not inline content.
You could possibly use the Discourse User Notes. You would send a Staff member the character sheets and they would “load” them for each relevant user, and then see a clickable notes icon on each post so that the character info is easily at hand.
The author themself wouldn’t be able to see this, but presumably they already know this info anyway.
Thank you. It’s almost what I need, but there is an important feature missing. I require the ability to hide certain parts of a post so that they can only be viewed by the post author and the staff members, not by the person who started the topic. In my scenario, that could lead to exploits.
In my head, it could work like this:
Part of the post available to the public
[hide]Part of the post that’s only viewable by the post author and the staff members[/hide]
Of course, I’d rather have something more modern than the [hide] BBCode.
It’s essential that the publicly available part of the post remains searchable.
PS: And yes, I still didn’t start my RPG-oriented Discourse forum because of this issue.
If self hosted or have high enough tier. The Signatures Plugin could be used as @codinghorror mentioned by having the pm link in the user signature. Alternative link to a Private topics category link can work as well as @RGJ mentions.
Then no need to remember to add link to each post.
콘텐츠는 HTML 코드나 게시글의 원본/JSON 뷰에서 볼 수 있으며, 검색 기능에서도 반환되고, 게시글을 인용할 때도 그대로 노출됩니다.
<rp>는 인라인 요소(inline element)이므로, 그 안에 블록 타입 요소가 들어가면 블록 요소가 시작되기 전에 태그가 닫히게 됩니다. 쉽게 말해, 콘텐츠에는 줄바꿈 하나(단일 줄바꿈)만 있는 일반 텍스트만 포함해야 합니다(줄바꿈 두 번 = 단락 = 블록 요소).
불행히도, 이미 방대한 게임 캐릭터 생성 과정에 사용자에게 공개적으로 보이는 주제와 사설 메시지(PM)라는 두 가지 별도 절차를 통해 전체 캐릭터 시트를 제공하도록 요청하는 것은 더 복잡하게 만들까 봐 우려스럽습니다. 다른 선택지가 없다면, 마켓플레이스를 بالتأكيد 고려해 보겠습니다.
알겠습니다. 하지만 여전히 두 개의 주제를 만들어야 합니다. 하나는 모든 사람이 볼 수 있는 주제(캐릭터의 외모를 설명하는 내용)이고, 다른 하나는 비공개 주제(캐릭터의 배경 이야기와 첫눈에 보이지 않는 기타 특성들을 포함)입니다. 앞서 말했듯이, 이미 복잡한 캐릭터 생성 과정을 더 어렵게 만들고 싶지 않습니다. 예전에 [HIDE] BBCode를 사용하던 시절이 훨씬 쉽고 직관적이었습니다.
