You actually came here and shilled and even said that a cancerous honeypot was any good? You are too funny either jim or one of his payed bitches. Since noone on the internet actually goes there 

Anyway, please leave Endchan and other imageboards away from a mega FED platform. We're not interested.
 >>/12000/
webp is a pain, we have not implemented it. Thumbnail would still be JPEGs, so I don't think an option is needed.

Came up on the apropos of the Christmas Special that we should hold a recurring "movie night", maybe on monthly basis. We just might do that. 
The first occasion would be on the 8th of February (probably would be the 9th for Australians). One movie, and maybe two short videos, as an intro and outro, might be related to the movie itself, might not.

Right at this moment, I can't offer a more exact date, for all the timezones it is hard to plan. Was talk about 21:00 PST on the 8th which is 00:00 EST and 16:00 AET on the 9th. However this is too early for Europeans on Sunday. Maybe we could offer two streams with some gap between.
Also no titles yet.

So ideas, suggestions are welcomed.

Is there a way to make the wordfilter recognice spaces so it only applies to isolated words but not if the phrase is part of a longer word?

like filtering '_trans_' but not 'transport'

So how should custom spoilers be formatted?

Normal preview images are 255x255px but a spoiler that size apparently gets compressed to something like 255x172px distorting the image.

I managed to create an undistorted spoiler by embedding it in a transparent 255x172 image but then the resulting visible preview is only 172px high instead of 255 like normal images.

Any way to fix this?
yes because this spoiler is only 100x100px. If height is above 172px it gets distorted. I just wanted to make a spoiler the same size of the other 255x255 preview images so it's not immediately recognizable as such but nvm it's not a real issue.

Users reporting lost media on several boards. Not sure what happened yet, or we can recover the lost images. For now it seems the whole html element that contains the uploads is missing from the posts, so it's not like the media itself in the db got lost.
But will see.

It would probably be a huge chore restoring so many images in so many threads.
That does raise the question though, were the images deleted off the site or just from the post? and If the images were not deleted off the site would it be possible to get links to those images for their respective boards?

Is it possible to increase the total possible page count for a specific board? There are threads on my board that I don't want to lose but we are bumping up against the page limit and important threads are starting to be lost.
There is a maximum amount of threads. It's the default. BOs can decrease it.
Imageboards weren't meant to be used as archives, and as opposed to regular forums threads are ephemeral by design. You could archive threads with some online tools, liek:
https://web.archive.org/save
https://archive.ph/
 >>/18419/
ah, alright, no worries then. I think the threads are already archived anyway, it just would have been nice to have some way to keep them on the board, the nature of the threads on this particular board being intended to be a bit less ephemeral than those on others.
 >>/18420/
Alternative suggestion:
- save the page of a thread
- zip it
- upload the zip to a dedicated thread, with a description of the archived thread
Endchan starts autosaging at 500 posts, but the bump limit is 1000. I think max amount of files in a post is 5. So theoretically you could keep 500-5000 threads archived in a thread.
Media heavy threads, like bunch of webm/mp4s are different a bit...
Pls don't use imageboards as data storage facilities...

> Issue 1

Having some trouble with linebreaks spreading out. Seems to do it sometimes but not others, not sure why.
>>>/cumg/36/ >>>/cumg/37/

> Issue 2

Code tags seem to escape into greentext when $ is used.
>>>/cumg/16/ >>>/cumg/15/ >>>/cumg/19/

> Issue 3

The captcha button has no reload button in the reply pop-up. It doesn't always reload automatically, in turn causing the user the need to refresh the page.
> During the refresh, they may lose their text, however it seems to stay but the file they had attached gets unattached.


> Suggestion 1

Consider wrapping the site with IPFS for archival/resiliency.
https://ipfs.io/

> Suggestion 2

Consider adding support to KurobaEx. The current most popular FOSS image-board app on Android. A fork of Kuroba.
https://github.com/K1rakishou/Kuroba-Experimental/
I know this isn't exactly an Endchan thing, however it would be beneficial to Endchan end users and allowing more people to use it easily on mobile.

Is there a way to sort pinned threads and keep the one with the board rules always on top even if another pinned thread receives new posts?
 >>/18441/
Another thing. On the top of the page just below the posting form there is that...
> Remember to follow the rules
...line
That contains board rules you set in board management under...
> Manage rules
...option.
You can keep board rules there and make that line more apparent with CSS.
We're gonna try to make it more obvious for users by default so maybe no custom CSS will be needed.
Posts on a hidden board do not show up on the Latest Posts list on the front page but images do. Is this intended?

6th birthday

When we started Endchan, to me, it was a bet on user experience. 8chan was going to switch to InfinityNext, which now 9chan uses. I bet that users would not like the instant jump to a radical new interface and prefer the older interface.

8chan was leaving Infinity, their existing software, for many reasons. Mainly it was hacked together without much thought to the structure. InfinityNext was a carefully approached re-imagination of what 8chan could be.

Selecting infinity for Endchan was not wise for a couple reasons. First what if InfinityNext was never finished. This was a real concern at the time, we even name our git repos InfinityNow as a joke around this idea it may never happen. And we had this luxury because not only had I made an imageboard engine and turned it into an archival system called Futabilly for 8archive after its backend couldn’t keep up. But mainly because StephenLynx had started a project after InfinityNext and before Futabilly and he had a great fast engine ready to be put to the test. 8TailedLynx a theme for Lynxchan also helped provide a similar interface to 8chan. My engine didn’t have no-js support, so it wasn’t even an option.

We were the prime Lynxchan instance for a couple of years until the disagreements over the direction of LynxChan added up and I just decide it would back-port features and fixes as needed. This has left our site feeling old and stale. We’ve had a couple boards disagree with our decision and have left for new instances running with the latest LynxChan.

InfinityNext was somewhat completed but 8chan failed to migrate to it. It was handed off to NextChan which they continued some development until Josh regained the will to implement another chunk and launched 9chan.

Josh’s 9chan plans didn’t quite work out as he expected and said if someone, like us, didn’t take over he was going to shut it down.

After we took over 9chan, over the next year we learned what it cost to not have a strong personality as well as lead developer with the promise to continue to transform imageboards into the future.

I had some code for a new imageboard / social media hybrid, called WrongThink. And after discussion with some other developers, one proposed the idea of unifying all sites under one look and feel.
I believe that user experiences are largely important to a site. So we operate 9chan separately from Endchan because the software is so different and a unique experience all its own. And while Endchan has maintained its 8chan look and feel, it does need a new coat of paint.

When we set out to build WrongThink, we decided not to build our own HTML/CSS and licensed an excellent modern mobile-friendly implementation from Jschan. This is a very similar experience to 8TailedLynx, other Lynxchan frontends and 8chan. However with WrongThink we’ve heavily invested in a really solid no-js experience (using heavy modern css tested on older browsers).

From what I've seen VPN endpoints are in Korea, France and wherever, rarely if ever in the US. These are all US IPs. And what VPN service gives someone 6000 unique IPs in under an hour? This is more likely a botnet.

> no flood protection to cover this kind of thing
What do you propose? How would you solve the problem?
The traffic looks like normal from the side of the server. It's a file and text. All random. Filename, size, image ratio. How do you make a rule that picks up on it? What if a legit new poster appears and he also gets stopped? All new threads start with 1 UID, how to stop flood but not stop new thread creation of legit users?
We have measures in place, and captcha stops. But they can train that. So we experiment to get on top of it. We'll find a permanent solution eventually (and probably the spam with stop with the end of the US midterms), but we are open for useful propositions of solutions. We listen.
 >>/12159/
 >>/12159/
> but we are open for useful propositions of solutions. We listen
Add a word filter every time new spam comes in. So if a specific phrase gets posted, you add that to a word filter and make sure nobody can make a new thread using that phrase. 

Maybe add a filter to random urls that get posted in single post threads, or an inspector for it.

Keep up the good work frens.

This will effect several boards.
Got an ultimatum from Roskomnadzor to take down some content, else they'll block our domain. Since we won't comply we advise users to explore our alternative access options, and ofc look up possible ways to avoid government censorship.
Happy posting.

As a newish phenomenon we're getting DMCA requests now and then. It happened enough times to dedicate a thread for it, a quick explanation and thought.
When we consider a DMCA request we check if the subject in question satisfies fair use:
https://fairuse.stanford.edu/overview/fair-use/what-is-fair-use/
In short we take a look if the posts, the thread can be considered as commentary, criticism, or parody. If we don't find this aspect of the thread prominent enough, we have to comply to the take down request. If this happens we might not give a notice to the affected poster or board.

Personally here I wanna encourage our posters to do creative work, it can be more satisfying and entertaining.

Yes, /agatha2/ and /ashleyj/ need to be removed. The girls which are discussed there were underage at the time and there are underage nudes in various threads on the board. Users will post them and remove them soon afterward or the board owner may remove them but no one is ever banned or reported for posting that content. They use this as a loophole to get away with doing it and there are still nudes of underage girls up on the boards hidden in the various threads. 

The board owner of the /ashleyj/ board is a legitimate stalker of that girl who has been stalking her for over seven years and harasses her family members on social media. He regularly posts about it and shares her doxx info on a discord server dedicated to her where most of the /ashleyj/ users congregate. Fair use does not offer legal protections from these activities and they will soon be reported to the proper authorities and the company who hosts endchan if no steps are taken to correct this matter. The law is very clear in the state of Nevada, the U.S. and Switzerland regarding these matters. Switzerland does not offer legal protections to those who engage in the distribution and solicitation of child pornography or the sexual exploitation of minors online and does cooperate with U.S. law enforcement on these matters as anyone can read about with a simple Google search as there have been many convictions the past several years. 

I'd also like to state that one of the girls, Ashley, recently returned only asking to take ownership of the board dedicated to her to be able to moderate it and remove her personal information posted there and the explicit photos of her when she was a minor that she shared with her boyfriend at the time which are illegal to have hosted there. 

It has recently come to my attention that the anon that is harassing her family and stalking her is also the board owner and refuses to moderate the board or hand over the board so it can be moderated properly and they have posted in their discord server that they have no intention of moderating the board or passing ownership to Ashley simply out of spite because Ashley will not comply with their requests which constitutes as blackmail and is also a crime. 

This is a final attempt to notify the owners of the website to correct these issues before further litigation is taken.
 >>/12110/
Basically nothing in this post is true, and it's really obvious that you're 'xmr' and what your motives are here.
None of the girls discussed on /agatha2/ are underage, and there are absolutely not any underage nudes on the board, nor have there been any posted at any point. This is nothing but lies and slander.
The rest of your post is literally fanfiction-tier and not worth addressing.
