Sup, tom here

1. Not sure how to make it work with cloudflare/proxy, but if you edit this line:
https://gitgud.io/fatchan/jschan/-/blob/master/gulp/res/js/live.js#L8
language: js
let supportsWebSockets = 'WebSocket' in window || 'MozWebSocket' in window;You can change it to = false; and it will go straight to polling mode.

2. 
Geo information is expected to come from header x-country-code and x-country-name with an nginx plugin: 
https://gitgud.io/fatchan/jschan/-/blob/master/models/forms/makepost.js#L316
Also, board country blocking uses x-country headers, so you will need to edit this part
https://gitgud.io/fatchan/jschan/-/blob/master/models/forms/makepost.js#L53
With cloudflare its a bit different. Their support page on geoip headers is here: https://support.cloudflare.com/hc/en-us/articles/200168236-Configuring-Cloudflare-IP-Geolocation#12345682 Looks good, they identify unknown countries as XX and Tor users as T1. However only send the country code, not the name. So you would need to add a map of country code -> name in the code so you can get the name with something like countryNames[req.headers['cf-ipcountry']], or you could leave country names blank but then it won't show them when you hover over the flag on the frontend.

I'll put config options for these and push it to the repo tomorrow, busy tonight. And if you get the websocket with cloudflare working, please post an issue or make a pr if its code related.

>>17
thanks tom! I'll look into the polling setting. 

For the geoip headers, I will need to manually set the proxy server to pass those headers along. I had to do the same thing to get IDs working.

Your /rules/ board isn't up, brah, so no one can review your rules.

But so far the site works great with the exception of the websocket. Also the captcha bug seems to be still present that requires you to reload the captcha at least one time for it to work.
Also I need some place to test my sage css.

Hello! How far along is progression on implementing running JSchan as a hidden service?

>>17
Is there any way to change how a board processes markup like pairs of ** and || ?  If there isn't currently, would you be able to add that feature?  I can't tell you how much it makes my skin crawl to have double apostrophes give me bold text, asterisks give me italics, and pipes give me spoilers.

I genuinely consider this a bug, which is why I'm mentioning it here instead of making a Git feature request.

Why aren't we listed on the webring?

Because I need a config for it and that hasn't been a priority. Actually, do I need to go  around asking sites to add zzzchan or is there a list being maintained?

You need to get a single site on the webring to add you.

Tom's the genius.

>>112
At least it seems to work with Javascript enabled. If the browser check itself was active, would it give you "too much traffic from this network" or something like this?

>>73
not showing filename != anonymised files. server would need to strip exif data and recalculate the checksums. bit more work involved.

>>77
i will spend some time this weekend on it.

>>83
not customisable per board, no. site admin can edit the markdown file and change what uses ** vs || to apply sitewide

>>92
blocked by CSP most likely

>>113
refresh the captcha so you are confident its right before posting. until somebody can rewrite the form handling middleware to validate captchas instead of waiting on the whole file uploads first :^)

>>116
>site admin can edit the markdown file and change what uses ** vs || to apply sitewide

Will this update the faq page or do I need to announce it?

Tom's truly a genius.

>>115
It works in TBB, but tor in other browsers does not work well with cloudjew.

>>117
no, for that you need to edit views/custompages/faq.pug and run gulp custompages. if i ever implement it to be customisable by config file, ill make it update the faq page too

So I swap the regexs in jschan/helpers/posting/markdown.js around, edit faq.pug , and then pm2 reload all; gulp html will apply these changes?

yes, but you only gulp custompages, not html. custompages gulp task will just rebuild faq+rules. no need to wipe the rest of the pages

Please report back here when you've implemented these changes.

Tor Browser Browser?

>>2 (OP) Hey admin, you should

I think I figured out why real time post updates don't work. The site uses a second server as a relay to protect its IP address, and WebSocket is supposed to work with direct connections only. If you tweaked the relay server to act as a sort of signal repeater for WebSocket it might work as intended.

>Also, I will be switching the site to vanwatech around noon central time 8/18 as a trial run. If it works out we will stay with it. I will be changing the markup behavior at the same time to match 8chan.

IT IS FIVE DAYS PAST THIS. SITE STILL HAS DISCORD MARKUP. OBSERVE.

Frequent host not available errors and now the captcha to delete shit isn't loading for me.

>>478
yes, I'm trying to get grid captchas working, but have managed to break captchas entirely. report anything you want deleted and I'll handle it for now.

If the site goes down again I broke something else and will scramble to fix it.

>>479
No problem, carry on with your work. Nothing serious to delete.

ok, shit is pretty broken right now, I'm working to fix it. I need to get better with git

I guess that happened to everyone at some point. Go slowly, triple check everything, always watch out for untracked changes and files. When in doubt, install a gui.

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

Can the behaviour of clicking on the post number be changed so it's added to where the cursor is, instead of the end of the input box?

Untitled.png
(7KB, 361x67)

1) The tooltip for thread ID highlighting says "double tap highlight."  This should read "Double click to highlight" because hopefully nobody on this website is a fucking phoneposter.  Tom makes good software, but God damn I wish he wasn't so addicted to normalfag dick.
2) When highlighting and un-highlighting multiple posts by an ID, they can become desynchronized.  Example:
>highlight 4 posts in a thread by double-clicking on ID
>mouse over one of the post numbers at the bottom of a post body
>the post those number you moused over expands attached to the mouse
>it was one of the highlighted posts
>it is now un-highlighted
>this 1 post now has the opposite state of the other posts in the thread
Double clicking on the ID of any of the 4 posts will just flip the switch (so, in this case you either have 3 highlighted and 1 not, or 1 highlighted and 3 not).  It should instead apply a state to the appropriate posts so that any situation like this can be resolved by double clicking once or twice.

>>523
I support this times a thousand.  The absolute most irritating thing about Lynxchan was this behaviour.
>bro, just type your replies in post order
I often edit and revise my replies as I type them, and that can mean making references to other posts.  Sometimes new posts appear as I'm typing and I want to reply to them, or sometimes I write sentence pieces in several different parts of the reply box at once because an idea occurs to me while I'm writing something else.

>>530
Thanks for bughunting. Post them both as issues on the repo and ill fix them.

>>425
Fixed on master branch as of today, so whenever zzzadmin updates it will be fixed.

>>530
>>532
Wrong quote, but anyways i fixed the things you mentioned. Pushed to the repo, so yell at zzzadmin to update :^)

>>535
Will do.  Thanks.

Oh, and I just noticed that the prompt when you successfully report a post is broken.  There's the [X] button as normal at the top right, but the [OK] button at the bottom middle doesn't have a button outline, so it's just the letters OK.

>>542
Yeah, some browsers remember page state when you nav back/fwd pages for speed, and it can cause this. I can fix, but its a low prio unless it happens some other way.

Why is the site icon still the fatchan guy?

When hidden service is up and running I think the idea of boards that are only visible on the .onion instance is interesting. Or perhaps accessible on the clearnet site as well but only indexed on the .onion site.

>>559
Seconding this. It would be a fantastic way of keeping more-controversial boards accessible, without allowing normalfags to see them and report the site.

>>2 (OP) 
Admin, please check your nginx config does not limit uploads size with max_body_size. Set the maximum file size in the jschan configs and let nodejs handle oversize file errors. Nginx and browsers dont play nice with the "entity too large" response, just google "nginx 413 xhr error".
I wont go into detail why the post still goes through, but in short its a technicality with how resubmitting, clearing oversized files and showing ban pages work. Which also explains why the error of "posts must contain text or files" came up on a new page instead of in a modal popup.

The one I deleted was just the same file 4 times but I refreshed the page half way through upload because it was taking ages over TOR. I think refreshing while uploading will also cause the bug (if user has scripts enabled).

The favicon seems to keep changing.  New tabs will give me the fat guy, whether spawned from a fat guy tab or a Z tab, but sometimes fat guy tabs will change to Z and I'm not sure why.  I have definitely refreshed the Fighting Games tab multiple times and seen it go from Z to fat guy, but then I'll glance up a day later and see that it turned into a Z.

>>622
Jesus christ I have the exact same situation with the first two threads in the exact same position. All my other /v/ threads are the fat guy, though, aside from a /b/ thread, this thread, and the newsposts I checked to test, if that's any help for sturgeon.

I think I finally found what's causing the issue with the favicon changing from fat guy to Z.
>open new zzzchan tab

>new post appears in tab
>favicon changes to fat guy with exclamation point
>navigate back to tab OR wait a few seconds

I used the test posts just above this one to test it, but I noticed it happening in a fast-moving thread on /v/ just a minute ago.  I don't know what the cause of this would be (maybe some weirdness from the proxy server like what was breaking auto-updates before?) but I'm pretty sure this is what causes the favicon to change from a fat guy to a Z.

Currently this tab is a Z for me.  I will make this post, then navigate away, and see what happens then.
