Added a chat feature (and changed dark mode)

[HuskerGarrett]

Just a quick note - I added a chat feature to the board. TalkNDawgs uses this for their game thread and it seems to work really well since it's a live chat instead of a thread that needs to be refreshed. Feel free to give it a shot and let me know what you think. If we don't like it, we can axe it.

You should see a chat option up in the navigation bar on both desktop and mobile now.

I also edited the dark mode colors a little. I felt the background was a little too "blue". Let me know if it looks ok.

I thought I was added to some super cool underground group.

Nice new feature though. Thanks for working over time during the Broncos game.

Can you rename it to the Chubba Chatter?

 

[iruletheskool]

I guess you can only post pic links and not uploads. Oh well…

It says I have a message in the chat but I can’t open it

Apparently the notification bubble is how many active people there are in the chat room

I tried to write a message but there’s no send button I click on the chat but there’s no way to post the message

I just click “enter“ or “return” and it sends the message. I’ll see if there’s a way to add a button too

Yea I had this problem on Chrome on Android. The enter button on my kb just moved the cursor down, didnt send a message. Windows chrome sent using Enter.

I've been using dark mode since yesterday just to try it out - you guys didn't tell me how many of the random colors were all F'd up. I changed the link colors in the alert dropdown, the text colors in the article slider, and the button color since those all were not legible. Is there anything I'm missing?

Unread vs read notifications are pretty tough to distinguish. Highlighted text is pretty tough to see.

I've messed with the unread vs read thing before and couldn't really find much of a solution. I'll see what else I can figure out.

Highlighted text where? That should be an easy fix

Edit - oh I think I see what you mean. Literally when you highlight

 

[iruletheskool]

But can we remove the ugly green noti bubble?

 

[HughJanus]

I like dark mode now. I never used it bc it seemed more difficult to read or the formatting was off or something. Looks super good now.

Highlighting should be red now
